It has been a while since MK came to visit me, as he had mentioned. I cannot help but feel a little lonely because of that, but I know that life must go on. A client who had previously asked me to design their wedding home came in today to review the designs. I was excited to show them the blueprints and even went above and beyond to use a projector to present a 3D image of their future home. I elaborated on each and every detail that was presented in the plans, hoping that they were satisfied with what they saw.I noticed that the bride was snuggled up beside her groom, looking at the designs with a happy look on her face. She even reminisced about how this design reminded her of their first meeting. The groom was also completely satisfied with the plans, saying that it was exactly what he had in mind for their future home. The bride then went on to thank me for my work, with a hint of surprise in her tone because she had initially been hesitant about working with me.In return, I ex
Claude's eyes flashed with depth as he slowly pried my hand apart, turned around to face me, and hid the depth of his emotions behind his gentle demeanor as he looked at me."Nat, I've already warned you not to get close to MK. He's not a good person and he only wants to use you," Claude urged me with a sincere tone. "This time, just listen to me, okay?"I looked at Claude's face, and my hope slowly turned into disappointment. I felt a lump in my throat when I heard Claude speak about MK like that, and my face immediately soured."Claude, have you said enough? My affairs don't need your interference," I said impatiently.Since I had misjudged the situation and the figure in the distance was not Mr.G, I didn't want to waste any more time. I said what needed to be said and turned to return to the banquet hall. Suddenly, a pair of large hands grabbed my arm."Nat, I just want what's best for you. Don't let that so-called Mr.G get near you again," Claude said as he grabbed my arm."L
As I felt a stir in my heart, my expression grew even colder. I asked Alpha in a distant tone, "Is there anything else, Alpha?"Claude's face suddenly became very troubled, which was the first time I had seen him like this. However, all he said in the end was a casual exclamation, "Nat, you look beautiful tonight."Upon hearing Claude's words, I couldn't help but sneer coldly, "I can't be happy just because you say so."I wanted to say something else, but Galvin's car had already pulled up. I simply turned my head and ignored Claude. Galvin stopped the car, opened the door for me, and said, "Nat, get in. I'll take you home."I walked around Claude and prepared to get in the car."Nat," Claude's brow furrowed as he grabbed my arm."Let go," I said impatiently.Galvin approached and shook Claude's hand, then protected me by holding me in his arms and said with a poker face, "Mr. Hansom, please let go." Claude tightened his grip on my hand and eventually let go reluctantly. "Let's go,"
"How come it's you?" My anxious and worried expression suddenly turned cold. I didn't expect that the person who saved me would be him."Are you okay?" Claude ignored my question and checked me first. When he found out that I was not injured, his face immediately darkened. He coldly said, "You still have to play with your phone while crossing the road? Do you know how dangerous it is?"Looking at Claude's worried expression, I couldn't help but feel a little ridiculous. How much I used to be moved by his little care?"My business has nothing to do with you. I don't need you to take care of me." I said expressionlessly to Claude.Claude noticed that I wasn't taking his words seriously, and his face became more serious, even showing a hint of concern: "How is this not related to me? We haven't even ended our mate relationship! I'm doing this for your own good, you're in no state to protect yourself.""But you're the one who put me in this situation," I felt the emptiness in my soul wher
"But how could they be the same person?MK was teaching me to get revenge on Claude and Vicky. How could Claude do something so ridiculous? I must be overthinking things.I tried my best not to let my thoughts wander and started to properly dress MK's wounds.Looking at his injured arm, I asked, "Does it hurt?""No, it's just a minor injury. With our werewolf self-healing abilities, it'll be fine by tomorrow." MK said nonchalantly, as if he really didn't care about the injury on his arm.I absentmindedly tended to MK's wound, but luckily, I didn't make any mistakes."Alright." After finishing up, I stood up and put the first-aid kit back where it belonged.When I returned to the living room, no one was there. I called out for MK, but there was no response. However, music suddenly started playing, and when I turned around, MK was standing behind me and reached out his hand. I asked him what was going on, confused. But MK didn't answer. He pulled me into his arms and started dancing wi
After making sure that Claude was not MK, I felt much more relieved. The next day, I planned to visit the new client's house that I had just taken over and check the progress of the renovation. After saying hello to the secretary, I left the company. However, before I could even leave the building, someone suddenly rushed towards me and startled me."I, I used to underestimate you. I didn't expect you to be such a despicable person."I turned my head and saw that it was Vicky.I sneered and said, "Speaking of which, I really feel inferior when compared to you."Vicky stopped me from leaving and said with an unpleasant expression, "Is Claude's injury related to you? You never accepted his rejection and only kept dragging him along. You don't want to break up with him, do you?"As I watched Vicky, I noticed that she didn't have the same superiority complex around me that she used to. My questioning even revealed a hint of pity. I smiled a little and couldn't help but say, "Claude's inju
I was so scared that my hands turned icy cold and my brain started racing. I couldn't just stand there and let rogue attack me. "Wait a minute!" I shouted.Rogue seemed to have assumed that I couldn't escape his grasp, so he stopped and looked at me calmly, as if he wanted to see what tricks I had up my sleeve.Suddenly, I smiled and said, "If I cooperate with you, will you promise not to hurt me?""Of course, I am very considerate," replied rogue with a fake smile.I reached out to shake hands with rogue and said, "Okay, I'll go with you."Rogue was pleased with my cooperation. As I got closer, his smile became even brighter. Then, I kicked him hard in the stomach and hit him on the head with my bag, knocking him down."Ahh!" I cried out in fear as the rogue threatened me. I quickly turned around and ran down the stairs, but my high heels made it difficult to run. The rogue was chasing after me, and I could hear his footsteps getting closer and closer. My heart was racing, and I almo
"Come on, let's not do this. We both know that we have had our differences in the past. Don't you think it's tiring to continue like this?" I said coolly, "We both know why I was hospitalized, and this matter is far from over."Upon hearing my words, Vicky burst out laughing as if she had heard the funniest joke ever."After everything we've been through, I thought you had finally learned something. But now it seems like you're still as foolish as ever," Vicky laughed uncontrollably."Now that rogue has been dealt with by Calvin, so what if you have him protecting you? I can still come after you easily," Vicky boasted, "Even though I hired the person, there is no physical evidence left and the witness is dead. How can you hold me responsible?"Instead of getting angry, I smiled happily at her words. Vicky looked at me with surprise. "What are you laughing at?" she asked, her expression stiff. "I wasn't laughing at anything," I said, elegantly tucking my hair behind my ear and smiling
