CEO Jerry was speaking to Nancy, and he saw that she wasn't even listening to him at all, as her mind and face were rather on the delivery man who was happily chatting with another staff.CEO Jerry hated Charles due to his handsome looks, as CEO Jerry had seen how most of the female staff of his company were publicly crushing on Charles. He thought to place a restriction ban on Charles and to warn his security men never to allow Charles to cross his company gate again or step a foot into his company.CEO Jerry even noticed that Nancy had been staring at Charles and Linda too, as she wasn't even listening to him at all, and he finally asked Nancy, "Miss Sophia... I have been speaking to you, and your gaze is totally on your house neighbor?""Uh." Nancy was shocked to hear CEO Jerry's statement to her, and she couldn't remember telling anyone else except Linda that Sunday is her neighbor, and she wasn't in any relationship with him either."Yes, that's because he's waiting for me and for
Charles waited outside for Nancy to step out from her apartment again. As he didn't see Nancy stepping out, he knocked on her apartment door again and walked inside to check on her. It was already 10 minutes past 8 am, and yet Nancy wasn't out."Miss Sophia," Charles called her by her second name. Just then, Nancy walked out from her bathroom, tying only a white towel around her chest. She hadn't expected to see Charles in her living room, which was connected to her bedroom. She hadn't even locked her bedroom door, and there were no curtains separating the living room from the bedroom, as she hadn't rearranged the apartment compared to her former house.Nancy almost lost her grip on her towel and blushed in embarrassment as she met his scrutinizing gaze. Charles immediately said to her, "I will be outside waiting.""Okay," Nancy replied, and she hurriedly went to have her breakfast.She knew that she couldn't go to work hungry. Before she could finish up in her room, it was already 8:3
"Mr. Sunday!! Mr. Sunday!!" Nancy called out to Charles for attention just as he wore his helmet and was about to start his bike to leave. But as he heard someone scream out "Mr. Sunday! Mr. Sunday!!".Charles raised his head and looked at the person. He saw Nancy running up to meet him, so he drove his bike towards her.Nancy stopped running when she saw Charles start his bike and drive off. She thought he didn't want to give her a ride. However, when she saw his bike finally approach her and come to a stop in front of her, she smiled sweetly and apologized, "Good evening, Mr. Sunday. I'm sorry I didn't know you were around. I didn't see you in the building when I stepped out."Charles switched off his bike engine, took off his helmet, and gazed at Nancy's pretty face as she smiled sweetly. She apologized, and he knew it wasn't her fault. He told her, "It's not your fault, Miss Sophia. It seems like your boss doesn't want me to pick you up anymore."Nancy frowned and asked, "Why?""Ne
"No, not Loretta," CEO Jerry replied, and Arya said, "Alright, Mr. Loverman. Forward the man's photo or anything that you have to enable my boys to track him, and I will send the update to you.""Alright, sis, thanks. I know I can always count on you.""Bye," Arya Lucian answered, and the phone call with CEO Jerry finally ended.CEO Jerry stared at his phone screen for a while and thought to snap photos of Charles when next he gets to see Charles around his company, as he knew that Nancy couldn't quit working for him now.++++Nancy and Charles finally arrived home late at the house where they live in the local town. Nancy smiled sweetly at Charles as she finally stepped down from his bike and said to him, "Thank you for the ride.""You're welcome, Miss Sophia. So tomorrow we will be traveling, but by noon, so that you can have enough time to rest," Charles said to Nancy. She kept smiling at him as she admired his shining scalp and replied, "Okay."Charles stayed beside his bike as he
Mr. Tobe noticed Charles present, but as he wanted to greet Charles, Charles totally ignored Mr. Tobe and walked back silently into the passage. Mr. Tobe then told Nancy, "A fight broke out in the restaurant today, and many of our customers had to place their orders online as they were scared to come to the restaurant to avoid being involved in the fight."Nancy got worried and asked Mr. Tobe, "I hope you're not hurt? Is it still safe to work at this hour?"Mr. Tobe shrugged and replied, "I have to work to support my family, and it poses a risk going out daily, but all is well, and I will be careful."Nancy thanked Mr. Tobe for the meal he bought for her personally and blushed sweetly at him. She stood aside and watched him start his bike before he drove off.Nancy happily turned to walk back into the passage and saw Charles standing at the entrance door, staring at her.Staring at her neighbor named Sunday Christian, Nancy felt he looked so much like Charles with that deep frown settl
Charles would admit that he loved the meal, but after hearing Nancy praise another man in his view, he commented, "It's manageable. Don't worry, we are going to my uncle's house tomorrow, and I will ask the cook there to prepare something special for you."Nancy frowned as she was sitting so closely with Charles on her couch and told him, "You're lying to me. Why do I feel that you aren't happy that Mr. Tobe brought the meal for me? The reason you don't want to admit that the food is sweet and you ate more portions than me."Charles smiled as he knew that because he sat closely to Nancy, his appetite grew much, and coupled with the fact that the food was sweet, he indeed ate much. He commented, "You're right. I'm not happy that he brought your dinner as I wished I was the one...""Hmm," Nancy frowned as she looked at Charles and subtly pushed him away to go away from her on the couch. She told him, "Go away, Mr. Sunday. I don't like jealous men. And Mr. Tobe is a nice man, and you appr
Nancy is nervous standing beside Sunday and in front of his family too, and she could see that despite Sunday not being rich like his uncle, they got along well as they all looked happy and related well as a family.Nancy stood in the living room nervously and Allison finally spoke to her, "Hi...""Yes, hi..." Nancy nervously replied, and Grandma Madison finally called Charles' attention as she said, "Sunday, won't you bring your wife over for me to see her lovely face properly?"Nancy swallowed hard as she heard Sunday's grandmother called her 'Wife.'Charles quickly corrected his grandmother, "Mama, we are not yet married, only dating.""I know, Sunday. Come, my dear," Grandma Madison called Nancy's attention instead, and Nancy nervously walked up to meet Charles' grandmother. She bent to reach Grandma Madison's height as she sat on her wheelchair, and Nancy greeted the elderly woman, "Good afternoon, Mama.""You're welcome, my daughter. You look so cute and the perfect bride for my
Charles smiled at Nancy and then turned to Edgar, who was finally walking up slowly to meet them. Charles introduced Edgar to Nancy, saying, "Meet my uncle's son, Edgar Walter.""Hi, nice to meet you," Nancy waved to Edgar, but he kept scrutinizing her as he walked up to meet her. Edgar really admired her. Although he didn't attend his cousin brother's arranged marriage because he was very busy in City X, Nancy smiled embarrassedly as she noticed the powerful-looking young man's lack of response. His cold presence reminded her of Charles. She then said to Charles, "I have to use the restroom now.""Sure," Charles answered. He glanced back at Edgar, who remarked, "Wow, she's so beautiful. Is she the one you came to search for, or have you fallen in love with another woman?"Nancy had already closed the door to the room given to her. Charles warned Edgar, "Stay away from her. What are you doing here?"Edgar smirked and replied, "Is it a crime for me to come say hello to my big brother?"
