Chapter 5 * Low IQ *

“Are you listening?” Kate comes back to her senses from David's sudden voice; she was so nervous to answer him. She softly replied, “mmm.”

David knows she is nervous; he doesn't want to frighten her,

“Okay, if you want to move out tomorrow, then tomorrow is okay,” he wants to hear her voice so badly.

“Okay,” Kate answered softly.

“Don't be nervous, we are husband and wife, you can tell me anything so tell me do you want to move out tomorrow?

Kate hardly blushed,” yeah.”

Kate comes back to her room. She checks the entire room to see if Amy was there or not,

Seeing she was gone, Kate was thankful as she changed her clothes, seeing the time she hurriedly ran for her classes.

On the other side of the city, in a luxurious office,

Alex was standing in front of his master with his head down.

David was sitting coldly on his swivel chair; he was glaring at Alex; he was looking at Alex in such a way that Alex is his most significant enemy in this world.

“Now, because of you, I can't see my wife at my home. I have to wait until tomorrow.”

“Master, you can't refuse Madam, how could I?

David gave a wintry smile,

“you already know I can't refuse my wife, so even after knowing, you still called me.”

He wanted to strangle him.

Alex was cursing himself inside his heart. If he knew this was going to happen, he surely would refuse madam and make her move out today at any cost.”

But now everything was too late to mend his mistakes.

He was praying inside his heart for someone to save him.

Suddenly someone opened the office door; Alex turned around and saw Liam and Adam.

When they came inside the office seeing David's face, they understood someone pissed him severely.

Liam exchanged looks with Alex,

seeing his pleading eyes, Liam understood he was the one who created trouble.

“Alex, you make some coffee for us,” Liam gestured to him to go outside.

Alex ran away without looking back.

Liam and Adam sat in the chair in front of David.

David gave them a cold scoff” sometimes; I don't understand how he became my assistant with such a low IQ.

“Okay, then it's okay Alex will come tomorrow to pick you up” David was very tolerant of her.

Kate silently nodded her head. She forgot she was talking with him in a phone call, so if she answered him with a nod, he wouldn't see her.

If David hadn't seen her from the car window, he also wouldn't have known, but seeing her nodding head, he smiled softly,” okay, go to your class. I'll call you later.”

“Okay,” this time, Kate answered immediately. David cut the call, and he called Alex's phone.

After that call, Alex nodded his head to Kate and left.

David was fuming from anger.

“You just got married, so too much anger is sinful for your health; by the way, where is your wife?

Liam tried to change the topic.

“At college.”

David's eyes softened at the thought of his wife, whom he was missing crazily.

Adam gave him a teasing smile” you're already missing her”

“Of course, I'm missing my wife,” David chuckled.

Adam thought,” yeah, bro, this is your first step to becoming shameless.”

“now, what are you planning to do with that Waston company?”

“I got what I wanted. We will return the investors for now, but who knows what will happen in the future” they all understand what David was planning to do, and they stop talking about the matter.

In college, Kate got a call from her adopted mother, Rachel Weston.

Kate said Mr Wood called her and said they would invest in their company.

She suddenly shows Kate's concern and tells her to go home sometimes; everyone misses her so much.

But Kate knew she was faking it.

After taking her 5-min, Rachel Weston cut the call.

Kate thought, “at least they will not bother me until they need me again.”

She was like a tissue to them. After using them, they would throw her in the dustbin.

It hurt; after all, she is also a human; she tried very hard not to cry.

Suddenly Amy called her from behind,

“where were you for the entire morning? You didn't even come to your class, I was calling you, but you didn't answer.”

“I had to go to Waston mansion,” Kate told Amy a lie.

'Why did you go there” Amy sounds angry.

“Anyway, let's go. Did you have your lunch?”

Kate pouted, and Amy understood she didn't.

“Okay, let's go to the canteen.”

Amy knows Kate is in a foul mood, and she tries to cheer her up.

After going to the canteen, they sat down at a table with food; Kate and Amy are always foodie people.

But today was different. Kate doesn't have any appetite, so she takes some salad and soup.

Seeing Kate's sad face, Amy also lost her appetite.

“So what did that old hag say to you this time? I don't understand Kate. Why don't you sever all ties with them?”

Kate sigh” they are legally my adopted parents, and I can't afford a lawyer now, and you know that”

“I'm sorry, Kate, I was angry. I know your situation,” Amy was also helpless. She comes from a middle-class family, and she financially can't support Kate.

Kate suddenly remembers she has to move out tomorrow from a hostel.

“Amy, actually I want to tell you something important but promise to me not to be too surprised” Kate knows if she tells Amy now, she will pass out from shock.

Amy looked at Kate suspiciously” okay tell me first; then I will decide later what to do.”

“okay but not here, first finish your lunch.”

“Okay”

After 20 minutes, Kate and Amy sat on a bench in a hostel branch.

“Okay, now tell me” Amy urges Kate to tell her.

Kate was thinking about how to start,

“Amy, I have to move out of the hostel.

“Move out, why, when, where are you planning to go” Amy confusedly asked so many questions in one go.
