"Ah shit, it turns out they didn't all go in. There are still one or two wandering around outside," Nathan muttered softly, quickly pulling Christy to his side to swap positions with Nina. Fortunately, Nina also wore a mask, so part of her face was covered. They slowed down, Nathan had given the code to Nina and the others to calm down."Good evening, Mr. Nathan Wilson," one of them greeted in a friendly manner."Good evening," Nathan replied with a smile."Are you from Mr. Michael Wilson's engagement party? And how was it, sir?""Yes, I did," Nathan replied again. "It went well and was quite simple but exciting.""Who were the guests, sir?""It was limited to Mike and Laura's close friends and family representatives," Nathan explained."When are you getting married, sir? Are you seeing a woman? Is this your girlfriend?"The newscaster grilled Nathan and looked at Christy, who was walking beside Nathan. Nathan smiled. He had expected to be asked this question."Me? You'll know when th
Sonya's eyes did not blink. A social media account from one of the news portals had a picture of Nathan, the young and handsome boss who had just attended the engagement party of his best friend, Michael Wilson."He said he was on a business trip but attended the party; it's tonight, which means he's still in town," Sonya muttered. She squinted her eyes, reading the excerpt of Nathan's statement and the headline in the news. This handsome boss is close to an undisclosed woman; who could that lucky girl be?"Close to a girl? Who? Doesn't Nathan always seem to be alone?" Sonya was getting increasingly curious, and there was a bit of worry in her heart about whether she related to Nathan's sudden blocking of all facilities to her.Her blood boiled even more when she read Nathan's quote; Later, when the time comes, you'll know."Sonya's face turned bright red; who was the woman Nathan was hiding from? Were they getting married? "No! I have to prevent their marriage, and it's up to that j
"What do you mean, Christy, don't be careless!" Mike warned Christy, knowing his sister could be careless at times. "Tsk, I'm just trying to remind that woman not to bother Nathan anymore. Let Nathan live a quiet life, married to whatever woman he loves." "Don't be so careless, Chris; you don't know who Sonya is," Mike argued. "I know who she is. She's a shameless woman who just wants to blackmail Nathan. Nathan's had enough, five years of being milked, our brother's worked hard, she's the one who's enjoying squandering the money." "Okay-okay. I know you're angry, but leave it to your brothers. Nathan has his plans; don't let your careless actions derail his plans. You keep doing what you're doing, pretending to turn a blind eye." "It depends," Christy said, "if I don't see her, maybe I'll keep quiet. But don't let her meet me. I'll chop her into BBQ." "Hehe, just because you're good at karate, you want to BBQ, Sonya. Stay calm. If you go to jail, I'll be the one in trouble. You
Laura was stunned; Ms. Victoria called her. What was it?"What's wrong? Perhaps..." Laura muttered to herself, a slight suspicion in her heart, but she quickly walked towards the room of one of the senior managers.When she arrived at the door, Laura was silent for a moment; she took a deep breath, as much as possible; she had to calm down to think clearly because this woman was one of the most difficult to deal with.Laura knocked on the door, and a voice from inside invited her to enter, so she quickly pressed the doorknob and pushed it. A woman sat in the manager's chair, staring at the laptop screen."Good afternoon, ma'am. Did you call on me?" asked Laura politely, her voice calming. Upon hearing Laura's voice, Ms. Victoria lifted her face and stared at the girl for a moment before finally ordering Laura to sit down."I saw from online news reports that Mr. Michael Wilson got engaged last night, and his fiancée is you. Is that true, Laura?"Ms. Victoria opened the conversation an
“Hello Vic, how's it going?Did you get the data?”A woman's voice came on the other end, a woman he hated but also needed.She hated her because she was the biggest obstacle to being with the man of her dreams.However, Victoria also needed her because she was one of the shareholders of Wils, so it could be her foothold to strengthen her position. That's why Victoria wanted to be friends and cooperate with Sonya, who was Nathan's contract wife. -Victoria hadn't realized Sonya had lost her rights as a Wils shareholder and her contract as Nathan's wife.“Yes, Sonya. I've got it,” Victoria replied, ‘I've also interrogated Mike's fiancée.’“Mike's fiancée?” repeated Sonya, stunned, “is that girl a Wils employee?”“Yeah, she is.” Victoria smiled, “according to her, last night Nathan came in for a while and then immediately left again.”“Good, you urged that girl to tell Mike who the woman was.”“Haha, sure, Sonya, there's no need to teach. Let's wait for Laura's answer tomorrow.”“OK, le
Laura's hands were flailing around, looking for something she could smash into the head of the bastard who was about to rape her.Suddenly, Laura's right hand touched an object, a pair of scissors. Unfortunately, it was only a tiny pair of scissors, but Laura didn't care; she had to fight back.Without a second thought, Laura quickly stabbed the tip of the scissors, and it hit the back of Benny's neck; although it wasn't deep, it was enough to make the man surprised; blood came out from the puncture mark.“You bitch! You want to kill me, huh?” Benny raised his face, and his hand touched the bleeding back of his neck. The man's eyes became fierce, and he slapped Laura hard.“Aargh!” Laura screamed spontaneously, “Benny, let me go!” Laura struggled. “Help! Help!” Laura screamed again, but the man became even angrier. His hands grabbed Laura's neck and choked her.Laura hissed, her voice choked, and spontaneous tears came out of her eyes; she felt so much pain. That's when the door was k
“Laura, what is this?”Mike was stunned; part of Laura's face was bruised. Mike also looked at Laura's neck; there were strangulation marks from the man's hands.“That bastard hit you, Ra?”Laura nodded, tears welling up in her eyes. “I fought back by stabbing a pair of scissors into the back of his neck; he got angry and then hit and strangled me,” Laura said again, crying; she again felt pain and fear.“It's OK, Ra. We'll do a physical as evidence to aggravate that bastard's punishment. You don't have to worry. I'll be there to assist you, and that bastard should be punished severely.”Mike gently wiped away the tears on Laura's face, and Laura winced when Mike's hand touched the bruises on her face. “Oh, sorry, Ra.” Mike let out a long sigh. He asked Laura to change her clothes; they were going to the police station to report Benny's crime.Not long after they arrived at the police station, Christy had already arrived with Frank. They immediately went in. Both Mike and Frank were f
In a hotel room, a handsome man sat looking at some photos on his smartphone screen, and his confidants had just sent the photos. He looked carefully at the pictures, and his gaze fell on an image of a woman with a man. "Hello, boss. How is it? Is that the woman you're looking for?" a call came in from the person who had sent the photos. "Are they husband and wife?" "I think so, and they look like a young couple on their honeymoon." "Try to find an opportunity to take a clearer photo of the woman, alone and full body. Close-up of her face. The photos you sent are not very clear." "Yes, boss!" After hanging up the call, the young man paused. He opened another photo of a man and a beautiful woman who appeared to be smiling happily. "Hmm, there is a slight resemblance." The man muttered. Then he dialed a number. "Hello young lord," came the heavy voice of a man on the other end. "Fred, how's Daddy doing?" "Still the same as always, no significant improvement." "Fred, please tel
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
