My Boss Loves Me Chapter 77
As Nick and I had suspected, Lana was furious when Greg told her about the plan to lure Carleon to Manhattan. But Lana also believed that it was all her fault.Her face grew even paler when she learned who Dostov really was. Her lips quivered, while her gray eyes welled up as she tried to hold back her tears.I did not blame her and I myself would feel the same guilt if I were in her position right now.Meanwhile, Greg was not any better than Lana. The grim and dark expression on his face looked even more tortured when he saw Lana's response."I know you need time to process it, but we need to move quickly before Carleon and Vlad take the first step," Nick said before taking a seat at one of the counter chairs."Nick's right, even Dostov knows about the problem between Carleon, Lana, and Greg," I added with a similarly grim tone.Greg looked up, gritting his teeth. "What did Dostov actually say earlier?"I explained everything in more detail, including our conversation next to the gla
My Boss Loves Me Chapter 78
Chapter 78Nick refused to talk to me after Greg and Lana left. But at night, when we went to sleep, his hands reached for my waist and pulled me into his embrace. He didn't let go until he woke up in the morning.I tried to make peace with him a few times this morning, but his pouting face still didn't fade.I thought of reassuring him again, but seeing him hugging Rosie and patting her back after breakfast made me realize... Maybe Nick is just worried, I can't force him to lessen his anxiety and worry every time he thinks about Rosie.It's not Nick who should understand my way of thinking, but it's me who should understand his feelings and what he's worried about.I hope Rosie will understand it too when she grows up that Nick's protective attitude is not to confine her, but because Nick loves her so much. But I doubt Rosie will have a boyfriend for the rest of her life... Ah, let's leave that problem for later.I smiled to myself while waiting for Elliot to finish his bottle of blo
My Boss Loves Me Chapter 79
Before we could answer Alice's question, Lana and Nick came down to the kitchen."Oh, you're here already?" greeted Nick before plopping himself down on one of the sofas. It seemed like he just had to deal with Elliot's tantrum. Even Lana looked tired."Let's have dinner now, then," I invited everyone."Did you cook?" asked Luke from beside Alice, who immediately got a sharp glance from Nick."No...I ordered it," I replied, taking a seat next to Nick. Today, we had a variety of Thai dishes, and for a while, everyone was busy with their own plates.Luke observed us one by one while eating his Pad Thai.I didn't have much of an appetite because I had just drank blood about an hour ago. Among the six of us, only Alice needed to consume food regularly, like a normal human."Should I wait longer?" Alice, who was impatient, interjected again."Yes. Is there another problem now? Alice and I almost bet on it during the commute here," Luke replied with a thin smile.I immediately looked at Gre
My Boss Loves Me Chapter 80
Everyone stared at Alice as the threat escaped her lips. Only Luke smiled as he watched her reaction.To me, it wasn't just her menacing tone that sounded scary, but her beautiful and innocent face when she spoke those words looked so contrasting that it made me shiver.Nick, who was used to Alice's behavior, listened to her words and shrugged it off. He seemed to still be processing my words earlier."Let's assume that the issue of luring Carleon out is settled," he said, redirecting our attention from Alice. "We still need to prepare to face Vlad. No one knows how he will react when he finds out Carleon has been trapped.""Why don't we just report his hidden activities to Vlad? Isn't that an easier way to get rid of Carleon?" Lana asked."Lana, if Vlad kills Carleon, as his Leeche, you will die too," I explained to her."Oh...I forgot about that," she replied, a bit embarrassed."Our current goal is not to get rid of Carleon, but to save you," I added, smiling at her."Alice, you've

"Nick reluctantly agreed to accept Dostov as Elliot and Rosie's guardian, and you were the one who convinced him," I added as Alice remained silent in response to my words.Alice's steadfast gray-blue eyes never wavered as she looked up at the dark sky above us. It seemed like rain was about to pour any minute now.I nodded and also gazed up at the sky. "Nick told me about it before.""The Valkyrie that Dostov killed and took her power from was Skuld. She was a tribute to Dostov, who was destined to become Vlad's successor...and one of Skuld's unique abilities was her enhanced vision."I turned to Alice, who was still looking up. "So that's why Dostov has enhanced vision?""Yes," she replied shortly. Alice then smiled at me as she glanced my way. "But when Dostov took Skuld's power, he didn't do it perfectly. So only part of Skuld's enhanced vision was transferred to Dostov. Sometimes his visions are true, but often they are incorrect.""So what did Dostov see that made him decide to
My Boss Loves Me Chapter 82
I don't remember when was the last time Elliot and Rosie left this house... Maybe never?It seems like it has never happened.Even they were born in this house. When I mentioned it to Nick, he just raised one eyebrow and went back to feeding Rosie her red bean porridge.It seems like lately Nick has monopolized the task of feeding Rosie. I always end up with Elliot and his never-ending bottle that he always throws to the floor after finishing it. Elliot has already destroyed twelve bottles so far, of course it's because Elliot is not an ordinary baby. The more days went by, his strength became more and more uncontrollable. Nick says that Elliot's behavior is still within normal limits in the Volder world."Will Greg and Lana come again today?" I asked while picking up the bottle from the floor, the more Elliot throws his bottles farther away."I think Greg has work today," Nick replied. He was wiping off Rosie's drool that's dripping. Rosie raised both of her hands and giggled with del
My Boss Loves Me Chapter 83
I stared at the apartment building in front of me with a doubtful look. Greg stood beside me after he finished parking his car in a 'safe' place."Are you sure this is the place?" I was a bit skeptical.The building in front of me looked too shabby for someone on Dostov's level to live in. There are some teenagers who are sitting in the courtyard of the building. They were chatting punctuated by loud laughter that sounded a bit hysterical to my sensitive ears."Actually I was planning to come uninvited to his clan base but apparently Nick got ahead of me," Greg countered. He sounded irritated. He had just come home from work and immediately picked me up, so Greg was still wearing his suit minus the tie."Hah?"Greg scratched his head for a moment. "Nick called Alice and asked her to facilitate this meeting because she doesn't want you to come to Dostov's headquarters.""Oh ... so the meeting was held in a secret place like this," I replied, nodding in understanding.'No, this place is
My Boss Loves Me Chapter 84
Greg took a deep breath to control his emotions. "May I ask why you're using Rosie as bait?" I can tell by the gesture she's making. She's trying to sound polite.Dostov smiled slightly as he observed Greg. "Carleon is not a fool, he knows which is fake, and which is real."Greg gritted his jaw. “Then why use Rosie?!”"Because Lily Rose is the most convincing candidate right now. Besides there's no way we can make Elliot Shaw a Valkyrie, he's a boy." Dostov's answer sounded strange to me. But I don't want to interrupt their conversation."Dostov, living for eight hundred years must have left your brain rotting inside your head by now. How could you have the heart to use a seven month old baby as Volder's bait like Carleon?!" Greg exclaimed furiously.Dostov did not look the least bit offended, his face still relaxed. "Have you forgotten I am their guardian too? How could I let these two get hurt, Gregory."“Guardian…” Greg hissed curtly. "You have to step over Nick and mine before you
