Auntie Sophia sighed before she said, "Nina, true love cannot be measured in material terms, no matter how much he has given, it cannot be used as a standard if someone really loves you."Nina was silent, trying to digest Auntie Sophia's words. "And as a woman, you must have self-respect, never ask for anything from a man before becoming a legal partner.""I understand, Auntie, I never asked Nathan for anything," Nina replied with a smile, "By the way, do you think I should return the laptop?""Hmm, if Nathan is sincere, he will be offended if you refuse. Besides, maybe he sees that you really need this laptop." Auntie Sophie argued."That's right, Auntie; Nathan certainly knows what I'm thinking because lately I've been bothered by a coworker who is spiteful of me; he sabotages my work," Nina explained the problems she faced in the office."You have to be careful Nina," said Auntie Sophia."Yes, Auntie, that's why I plan to buy a new laptop, one that's lighter to carry around, so tha
Nina was stunned; it seemed that Nathan was distraught by the incident just now; understandably, he was not used to the life of the boarders, who liked to joke as much as their mouths."Nathanny, don't take what happened earlier to heart, they were just kidding," Nina assured."Kidding? That's harassment, do they really think you're a bird?" Nathan still looked angry."Oh my gosh Nathanny, those guys do that when they're hanging out, but they never misbehave with me or the other girls who live there," Nina argued."Anyway, you can't, you have to move out of there." Nathan insisted.Nina sighed, "Where should I move, I think the neighborhood is quite good, they are good neighbors, care about each other and help each other, I've lived there for a long time.""You just relax, I'll organize everything," Nathan said; he immediately took out his cell phone and contacted his assistant. Nathan instructed Emi to immediately find a ready-to-live-in apartment that was safe and comfortable for Ni
Nathan looked at Nina with great curiosity; while Nina smiled, she turned her gaze towards the stained glass walls with luxurious ornaments. Nina sighed, "She's very special to me, because she's the one who brought me into this world.""You mean, your parents?" interrupted Nathan. Nina nodded, answering without turning her head, "Mom."Nathan sighed, "Honey, does your mom come here often?" Nathan asked, not knowing much about Nina's family."Yes, almost every day," Nina replied with a smile."What? Do you eat here every day?" Nathan was both confused and amazed."Of course, we eat here because Mom makes the food for the guests here." Nina smiled and returned to her seat; before Nathan could ask her again, she told him that her late mother was one of the most famous chefs in the country. She became the executive chef of this restaurant.Nathan was surprised; he again confirmed whether Nina's mother was a chef. Nina nodded and then mentioned a name that stunned Nathan."Oh, so you're th
Nathan immediately took Nina into his arms, and Nina burst into tears. Nathan and Uncle John were silent. They understood that Nina was now reeling from what had happened to her mother."Honey, don't be like this, I'm sure Mom doesn't want to see you sad," Nathan tried to persuade Nina."That's right, Nina. Katy is happy there, don't make her sad." There was a long sigh from Uncle John, and his eyes turned red. He no longer knew how to persuade Nina because he felt his heart in pieces; the pain was intense when Uncle John found that the friend he loved so much had left.Uncle John patted Nina lightly on the shoulder; then the middle-aged man left Nina and Nathan; he was sure that the young man would be able to persuade and calm Nina because he did not know what to do.Nathan let the girl cry in his arms; he stroked the girl affectionately, trying to provide peace. Everything was beyond his expectations; he planned a romantic dinner, but instead, it became sad like this."Nathany, I'm
Today, Nina woke up early, like an average weekday, even though she usually wakes up at noon on weekends like this. After bathing and dressing, Nina immediately went to the kitchen to make breakfast. Still, it turned out that her aunt was already there.Auntie Sophie was surprised because Nina usually wakes up at noon on Saturdays like this, but why is she up so early now?"Morning Auntie," Nina greeted. Auntie Sophie answered while looking at her niece in surprise."What's wrong, Auntie?" asked Nina, also surprised."Today is Saturday, Nin. Did you forget?" asked Auntie Sophia, thinking that her niece must have been sleeping, so excited to work that she forgot the day."Yes, Auntie, I know, what's wrong?" replied Nina with a smile; she immediately poured warm milk into the glass."Oh, I thought you forgot, where are you going? You're up early on a Saturday," she asked curiously."Going to the office, Auntie." Nina answered while chewing the breakfast her aunt had made."Oh, over time
Nathan gave Nina the code to look at; Nina nodded, stood up, walked towards the door, and opened it. A woman Nina already knew stood tall, carrying a thick folder."Afternoon Miss. Nina, is the boss inside?" Emi asked. Nina nodded and invited Nathan's assistant to enter."Emi, why don't you call first or send a message?" Nathan greeted the assistant with annoyance."Hehe, sorry boss, I've called many times and texted too, but it hasn't been opened.""Hmm, what's wrong?" Nathan asked."I want this report, boss," Emi said as she handed over a file. Nathan immediately accepted it. He opened the file."Well it's finished, usually it waits a week." Nathan commented."It just so happens that it's Saturday and their office is still open, so I finished it right away, just waiting for Miss Nina's signature," Emi said."Good job, I'll give you a bonus," Nathan said, "get it done.""Yes, boss." Emi rushed to Nina and asked her to put her signature on it. Nina was stunned; she glanced at Nathan,
Nathan immediately contacted his assistant; he told Emi about it and ordered her to take immediate action to clean up the mess."You know what you have to do, right, Emi?" said Nathan, "It has to be cleaned up tonight including the trending hashtags.""Yes, boss. I understand," Emi replied."One more thing, immediately track down the mastermind behind the chaos," Nathan ordered."Yes, boss. Get moving."Nathan sighed heavily, his face turning cold. Who did that? Was it Sonya? But it was impossible; she wouldn't care if Nathan was close to any girl.Nathan immediately entered the bathroom; he didn't want Nina to see his annoyance, as much as possible, not let Nina know; he was worried that the girl was sad and would stay away from him. Nathan always wanted to be with that girl; he didn't want to be away from her.After showering, Nathan returned to his phone and checked the In*t*gr*m network; it was clean, the pictures had disappeared, and the hashtag that was originally trending had v
A pile of men's clothes was neatly organized inside the slightly smaller closet, with a few suits hanging next to it. Nina couldn't help but wonder if Nathan would move in here, too.The girl shook her head but quickly entered the bathroom; a warm bath would relax her. When done, she put on her casual clothes, applied light make-up, and sprayed Always red femme perfume that had been prepared; Nina felt fresh and suitable. Emi was great; all her choices matched Nina's taste.Nina immediately looked for Nathan; he was relaxing on the balcony, a cup of hot coffee on a small table nearby."Why are you standing there, baby? Come here," Nathan called without turning around. Nina was stunned, but she approached and sat next to Nathan."How did you know I was standing there?" Nina asked in surprise."Your perfume, darling, I can feel its freshness," Nathan replied with a smile, his hands embracing Nina into his arms."This is the perfume that Emi prepared; I'm surprised that everything Emi ch
