Nina smiled and shook her head, quickly inviting the two men to eat. Nina went into the dining room, followed by Nathan and Mike.Mike was wide-eyed at the dishes served on the table; he was indeed a foodie; eating was the most enjoyable thing for him; his instinct for the taste of a dish was very sharp. He is not even tasting, but he can already feel whether the food is good."Wow sister-in-law, is this cooking yourself or ordering at a restaurant?" said Mike, "Carelessly, yes of course she cooked it herself," said Nathan."Hehe, just kidding, bro." Mike laughed. "Never mind, let's eat it soon, it'll get cold." Nina intervened, and the three of them became busy and focused on enjoying the delicious food Nina cooked. No words were spoken because they were hungry, so they focused on the food on their plates.Occasionally, Nathan fed Nina even though Nina felt ashamed of Mike. Nathan didn't care because Mike already knew everything about her.After eating, Nina stood up to clear the
Nathan's face tightened, flushed with anger, his voice booming. Emmy came stumbling in. "Yes, boss, is there something wrong?" asked Emy; even though she had worked for Nathan for a long time, she still cringed when she saw him angry."What are you preparing? Do you think I'm a toddler drinking milk early in the morning?" snapped Nathan."Sorry, boss, but that's..." Emmy didn't have time to continue when a voice startled Emy and Nathan."Milk is very good for health. Drinking it in the morning at breakfast will produce energy for the body, and maintain brain function and endurance. Caffeine is also good for boosting spirit, but drinking coffee on an empty stomach will be bad for health."The voice was clean and soothing, the kind Nathan always longed for. Before he knew it, Nina was standing next to Emy."Good morning, Mr. Nathan," Nina greeted him with a smile.Nathan turned around, his tense face relaxed, his anger instantly extinguished like a fire doused in ice, and a warm smile
"What does that mean, boss?" asked Emmy, a little confused. Nathan sighed; he showed the file he was holding. Among the names on the list were those he suspected, so he asked Emmy to enter Nina's team to spy on and protect Nina. Emmy nodded, understanding the task given to her."Emmy, from now on you have to be closer to Nina, so that she gets used to you, because later you will work for Nina." Nathan informed Emmy of her upcoming assignment."Working for Miss Nina, what does that mean boss?""In the future you will be Nina's assistant and bodyguard, for more details I will wait for you and Bill at my apartment, tonight at 7 pm," Nathan explained."Now you go to Nina's room, after that find me these tools," Nathan ordered as he handed over a list. Emmy took it and frowned, but then she quickly turned to leave."Emmy," Nathan called, and she turned around, "find me the items that best suit my posture.""Yes boss." Nathan smiled; he would do anything to be with the love of his life. Me
Nina screamed, she was in a panic. How could a stranger get into her apartment? Wasn't this a luxury apartment? Why was the security level so low? Who was the stranger?Nina's mind was so chaotic that she could no longer think clearly. While a strange man stood facing the window, he turned around and smiled at Nina. The man walked toward Nina.Nina was amazed, she tried to think hard about who the strange man was. He looked like Nathan from his posture, but his face and hair were not Nathan's. His face was very handsome, but his skin tone looked paler.Nina's heart was beating hard as the stranger got closer, and her brain kept spinning about how to get rid of the uninvited guest; when one step of distance was left between Nina and the intruder, Nina shouted at the top of her lungs."Stop!!! Don't come any closer!"Nina naturally stepped back, but unfortunately, she slipped and lost her balance, and her body fell backward."Aargh!!!" she shouted spontaneously. The stranger also looked
"Nathanny, is it possible that he's... Richard?" asked Nina, guessing."It's very possible, but we don't have any proof yet," said Nathan, "just be careful, honey. Don't be easily provoked." Nina nodded. Suddenly, Nina remembered the mask and wig that Nathan had worn when he came in. Nina asked him why he was in disguise.Nathan smiled; he did it all to be free to be outside with Nina and that no one would gossip about Nina and Nathan if they knew that Nina had a boyfriend who was no less cool than Nathan."But Nathanny, if you wear the hyper-realistic mask for too long, it's also not good, right?" asked Nina worriedly. She rubbed Nathan's face, and there was sadness in the girl's eyes."Psst, why are you so sad, honey, it's comfortable to wear, it's high quality," replied Nathan. "I'll wear it in public places anyway, just so we can be seen together."Nina leaned her head on Nathan's chest; the girl silently suppressed all the feelings and worries in her chest. She wanted to be like
"Boss, the people who made a mess at the café have been found; they are Ms. Victoria's people and are from Ms. Victoria's division." Emmy reported her inspection. Nathan was stunned. Victoria was always trying to get close to him and get his attention, but Nathan wasn't interested in her; no matter what she tried to do or how sexy she was, he would never look at her. Nathan once admonished her to dress modestly because she entered Nathan's room in a sexy outfit."Ok, Emmy. Please send me a copy of the CCTV footage in the café." A few moments later, Emmy sent a video containing CCTV footage that recorded the chaos in the office café that afternoon. In the big office, surveillance cameras were installed in every corner, including the café in the office environment. The CCTV can record not only images but also sound.Nathan played the video, analyzed their conversation, and even marked who was vocal in bullying Nina. Nathan also noticed Nina's attitude; he admired the girl's calmness,
"Morning Boss," greeted the young man. "How's it going, Bill? Have you ensured everything? Including the security of this place?" Nathan looked around. Bill, one of Nathan's confidants besides Emmy, gave a detailed explanation. All this time, people only knew Nathan's assistant was Emmy, while Bill worked a lot behind the scenes. Bill also reported the results of his investigation regarding Richard; he confirmed that the one who took the photo of Nathan and Nina was Richard, and there was also a sign of Richard's collaboration with Victoria. "Hmm, okay now we go to the office," said Nathan; he immediately got into his car; this time, Bill drove Nathan's car while Nathan sat in the back seat as a big boss.---Nathan was going through Emy's files when Mike walked in, and there was a look of annoyance and emotion on Mike's face. Nathan lifted his face to watch the ripples on his friend's and brother's faces. "What's wrong with you, Mike?" he asked, surprised, "Why do you have such a
Victoria immediately returned to her room, called all her subordinates, and scolded them. She expressed her anger and frustration until some were crying and scared.Victoria emphasized that they should not be rashly bullying openly like that. Because all corners of the office have CCTV cameras installed, she also ordered them to apologize to Nina, as required by Nathan, or they would be fired.So, with their faces bowed in shame, they came to see Nina to apologize. At that time, Nina was in her room with Emmy, Laura, Leo and other members of Nina's team; they were just about to start the meeting when the three women arrived."Miss. Nina, I want to apologize for the incident the other day at the café," said one of them. Nina and the others were surprised, but certainly not Emmy, because she already knew Nathan had acted."Who told you to do this? Ms. Victoria, huh?" chirped Laura. The three women were silent; they just looked down, unable to raise their faces, fear mixed with shame.
Nathan was stunned, "Sorry, what does that mean?""Well, sir. I'm the president director of a company in Belfast, so I can easily give you a position in my company, so you're not jobless here."The man said proudly. He was the husband of one of Nina's cousins who had no role in O'Meisceall Castle. He could attend the event because his wife had received an invitation. After all, her father was one of Lord Arthur's cousins."Oh, thank you for your kind offer," Nathan replied with a smile, although deep in his heart, he was annoyed because they indirectly accused Nathan of living on his wife's family.As Aran happened to overhear the man's conversation, he felt obligated to set the record straight."Haha, what did you offer Sir Nathan Wilson earlier?" Aran laughed as he approached Nathan and the man; of course, Aran's laughter drew the attention of the others, so they all turned to the three people."As you all know, the Wilson family is one of the Crazy Rich families in New York City. S
"Tan, you should go back to Philly." Grandpa Wilson asked Nathan to come back. Nathan was stunned to learn why his grandfather was asking him to return. The grandfather explained that he had already agreed with Nathan's uncle and aunt to celebrate Nina's pregnancy because this was their first great-grandchild and their first grandchild."Geez, I wonder what's wrong, Grandpa." Nathan laughed at his grandfather's explanation. But I'm sorry, Grandpa. My wife and I won't be able to return anytime soon, as this is a vulnerable time for my wife's pregnancy. She'll be exhausted from the long flight."There was a sigh from Grandpa Wilson. "Is Nina not doing well?""Oh, everything is good, Grandpa. I don't have to worry here, because the Castle has family doctors and nurses who keep a close eye on her, and the food for my wife is specially made with the right nutrients for her gestational age. Also, here I don't have to worry about people having bad intentions towards my wife."Nathan reminde
"What's important, what's important Nathany?" asked Nina in confusion."Honey, we've been making love all month, not a single night off.""Are you bored, Nathany? Or tired?" interrupted Nina quickly, both of them a young couple who were still very passionate about sex.Nathan chuckled at his wife's comment. "How could I be bored, baby. You know, I often ask for more.""Hm, so?" Nina was confused by her husband's attitude."I'm just wondering for this month, the previous months I used to take a week off at the beginning of the month, waiting for your monthly guests to finish, but this month...""Nathany." Nina gasped at her husband's mention of monthly guests. She quickly got up and grabbed her cell phone to look at her monthly calendar."Oh my God! Nathany!" Nina squealed as she covered her mouth."What's wrong, baby?" Nathan woke up and tensed up."My Hubby Baby, I'm six days late," Nina said happily."Oh, really?" Nathan was surprised. Nina nodded as she showed him her menstrual cal
"Dad..." Aran murmured, his eyes filled with tears as he saw his father looking strong and healthy. It was indeed a miracle. Previously, his father looked helpless, let alone able to walk like that; just to get up, he had to be carried.Lord Arthur smiled at Aran and Nathan warmly. He went to his seat in the center while Nina sat on the right next to him. Nathan sat next to Nina. Aran sat across from Nina; he was to the left of his father."I'm sorry you waited so long. My baby Alicia fell asleep," said Lord Arthur, smiling. He looked at Nina, who was also smiling embarrassedly."It's okay, Dad. I'm so happy to see your condition now, it's a miracle." Aran said enthusiastically."That's right, Aran. We're going to celebrate Lady Maxwell's arrival, as well as the confirmation of her title and the recording of her name in the Maxwell family register."Lord Arthur said excitedly. He ordered Fred to prepare everything, and his face lit up. Since it was a little late, he immediately ordere
"The thing is, I'm suspicious of my wife and brother," Nathan said while looking at his brother-in-law. His handsome face looked serious. Aran's face was no less serious seeing his brother-in-law like that. Suspicious of what?"What does that mean? Suspicious of Alice? Suspicious in what way?"A series of questions rolled out of the young nobleman's mouth. Nathan sighed, explaining that Nina was young, energetic, and not a typical spoiled woman who liked to complain. Since childhood, her mother had trained her to be independent. She always endured any hardship without complaining. If it was just going up and down the stairs, it wasn't something she could complain about.Ever since Nathan had known Nina, she had never complained about anything to him. They did like to discuss things, but not as complaints. However, Nathan remembered that Nina had complained that she was often tired, felt tired easily, and wanted to laze around in her room. That happened a few days before the collision,
Nina and Nathan were stunned. Important news? What important news? Wasn't dinner still an hour away?Nina and Nathan rushed to meet Mr. Fred, the man Lord Arthur had personally sent to fetch Nina to his private quarters. Nina was stunned, her heart beating erratically. She had been waiting for this: meeting her father as a daughter and father in person.Nathan could feel his wife's anxiety. He patted Nina's shoulder gently and then grasped Nina's hand, which began to feel cold. Nathan nodded with a smile of support."Come on baby, it's the time you've been waiting for. I'll carry you all the way down."Nathan stroked his wife gently. Nina nodded, the support from her husband calming her down. Nathan carried Nina down the stairs, and even though Nina refused, Nathan immediately carried his wife."Take your time honey, I'll wait for you in front of the pavilion until you get back.""What is it, Nathany, you can rest in the room," Nina refused."No-no. I don't want to see my wife exhaust
Suddenly, Nina leaned closer to her husband. "Nathany, am I dreaming?" she whispered."Why, darling?" Nathan replied in surprise."This building in front of us is like an illustration from a fairy tale." Nina looked up at the tall building before her, several towers rising on three sides. Light shone from every window in the solid natural stone building."Ancient European castles are like this, dear. Illustrators create images based on real images that have existed, then they add imagination to enrich their creations." Nathan explained as he looked at the ancient yet majestic building."Why are you standing here?" Aran approached them, who still hadn't moved, even though the vehicle that had taken them had already left."We're amazed by the view of this castle, brother. Isn't that right, honey?" Nathan replied with Nina's nod. "Apparently, the castle is quite old.""That's right," Aran smiled, gazing at the magnificent castle. This is one of the many old castles still inhabited, about
"Afraid? Afraid of what, my love?" Nathan was stunned. He looked at his wife, and there was nervousness on that beautiful face. "Isn't this the moment you've been waiting for, meeting your real father"?"That's right Nathany, I really miss Daddy, but I don't know what to do, what to say? I'm afraid I'll become a stranger to my own father." Nina sighed softly, question after question running through her mind."You know, Nathany. I've never felt a father's embrace, I don't know how to deal with and be devoted to a father."Nathan was silent at his wife's words. However, he was more fortunate than Nina because Nathan lived in complete love with both parents for eighteen years so that he could feel a father's love. Whereas Nina's father left her when she was only one year old, and there was no memory left in her memory about her father."My Love, don't worry. Although you have never met Daddy and have no memory of him, but believe me, the inner bond as a child and father will guide you. S
"Will, look at that!" said Mr. Carter, his eyes not leaving the young couple dancing amongst the other couples. Grandpa Wilson followed the direction of his friend's gaze; Nathan's grandfather was stunned."Christy? Who is that young man? Could it be her college friend?" muttered Grandpa Wilson."That's your granddaughter, isn't it, Will?" asked Mr. Carter for confirmation, and Grandpa Wilson nodded."Do you know who the young man is dancing with your granddaughter?" asked Mr. Carter again. There was a ripple of excitement on his face, and Grandpa Wilson just shrugged his shoulders."That's Bob, my grandson," Mr. Carter replied with a smile."Oh, is that Bob?""Yeah, that's right Will. I haven't had a chance to introduce him to you yet, he's been busy studying abroad, when he came back I put him in charge of the company under Nathan."Grandpa Wilson nodded, but how did these two get along and know each other so well? Both grandfathers were surprised. They had tried hard to bring Natha
