Chapter 976: Chapter 976 Hate Betrayal The Most

The next day, when Naomi opened her eyes, Nelson stretched out his hand and grazed her nose.

“Baby boo, the sun is up, do you not want to get up already?”

Naomi rubbed her eyes and replied, “It’s already past nine o’clock? Why didn’t you wake me up?!”

Nelson held his forehead and said, “I tried to wake you up thrice, but you said you wanted to sleep more!”

Naomi was speechless.

She hurriedly got up and changed her clothes. She said, “I’ve told Auntie Cindy that I would be at Master Clarke’s for three days. If I don’t go to work today, I’ll be dead!”

“Don’t be in such a rush!” Nelson reached out to hold her.

“Is your body alright?”

Naomi had already forgotten about that matter. Now that he mentioned it, she immediately felt a faint pain in some parts of her body.

She felt her cheeks turning hot and replied, “I’m fine!”

“I’ve prepared your clothes and squeezed the toothpaste for you. I’ve also sent a message to your superior in the morning, saying that you will be late to work for an hour. You should wash your face, change your clothes and come out to have breakfast, and then I will send you to work on my way. You won’t be late to work!”

Naomi looked at him in surprise and said, “You’ve already arranged everything?”

“What do you think?”

She suddenly had no idea what to do. Amos had always told her that girls needed to be independent. Therefore, ever since she was young, she had to do many things by herself.

Except for Eudora, no one else had ever arranged so many things for her. She was also used to preparing everything by herself.

Now that someone had helped her to arrange everything, she felt overjoyed for some reason. It turned out that this is what it felt like to be loved!

It was different from the love from her parents and the affection between siblings. It was the love of one’s other half, the one who would accompany her for the rest of her life.

Naomi, who had never thought of marriage, suddenly looked forward to it after remembering Nelson’s marriage proposal.

“Naomi?” Nelson’s voice rang and she finally came back to her senses.

“Oh, okay!” After that, she went into the bathroom.

When she came out, Nelson had made breakfast. It suited her taste and was not as salty as the dish yesterday.

She ate the breakfast contentedly, and then went out with Nelson.

“Your office is just on the way to mine, therefore I’ll send you there.”

Naomi asked in surprise, “You’re going to the company today? Your body…”

“I’m fine! Oh, I won’t come back here again tonight!”

“Ah…” Not knowing what was wrong with herself, Naomi suddenly felt disappointed. She had only stayed in the apartment for three days, but she had already regarded this place as their cozy spot.

She had initially thought that it would have become their permanent place to stay in, but now she realized that it might have just been their temporary shelter.

Nelson noticed that she had lowered her head.

So, he said again, “What’s wrong? Are you reluctant to part with me?”

Naomi shook her head in denial, “No.”

“It doesn’t matter if you feel that way! Truth be told, I don’t want to part with you either!” Nelson held her hand.

“This place holds the same significance in my heart as it does in yours. In the future, when we get married, we can move in here!”

Naomi’s mood finally improved a little and said, “Alright!”

When they arrived at Naomi’s company, she got out of the car and left. Nelson, who was sitting in the car, looked at her back as she walked away, and the corners of his mouth gradually curved into a smile.

One that perhaps, even he himself was not aware of.

…

At the company, after Nelson entered, he went straight to the office.

He pushed the door open.

As he did so, he said, “Richard, how’s the company these few days? Bring me all the documents…”

However, no one responded!

Curious, he looked at Richard, who stood in front of the desk, and he shook her head at him, giving Nelson a look.

It was only then did Nelson notice that his chair had turned over.

He could faintly see half the top of the person’s head. His heart skipped a beat and he quickly walked over.

“Boss!”

The chair turned around and a face of a woman in her forties appeared in front of them. She wore heavy makeup and was omitting a strong presence.

From the corners of her eyes to the tips of her brows, she gave off an imposing aura.

“What? You’ve only been back for a short period of time, yet you won’t call me Miss Monique anymore?”

Nelson pursed his lips and said, “Miss Monique!”

Monique reached out to pick up the lighter on the table. With a click, smoke gradually permeated the air.

After Monique took a deep breath, she slammed the table and stood up.

“Nelson, I had asked you to come back to assist me, not to fall in love with someone! What? Haven’t you enjoyed your honeymoon enough in the past few days? When will you complete the task I’ve entrusted to you?”

“Soon!” Nelson pursed his lips.

“Soon?” Monique slowly walked toward Nelson, her long red nails sliding over his chest.

“Do you think I’m a stupid child? At that time, you said that the Granger family was your enemy, therefore I took you in! You told me that you and Naomi were only pretending to be a couple! However, you two were there for three days. Three days! Do you expect me to believe that you two were just talking to pass time?”

Nelson frowned and said, “Boss, Amos is too vigilant. If it weren’t for the fact that he’s especially difficult to deal with, I don’t think you would have chosen me. We’ve done our preparations for so many years to come up with a foolproof plan. Only when we get the trust of the Granger family will we be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort.”

The corners of Monique’s mouth curled up as she said, “You’re right. Tell me then , how are you going to deal with that Naomi girl after this matter is handled?”

Nelson was stunned for a moment and only managed a word, “She…”

“You can’t bear to part with her, right? And you’re still saying that you don’t love her?”

Nelson took a deep breath and said, “Of course I don’t! I just haven’t thought of a solution for that yet. For a pretentious woman like her, I should abandon her and let her suffer, right?”

“Very good!” Monique said approvingly with a nod. “I hope you will actually do so in the future!”

After that, she made eye contact with Richard, who immediately found an excuse and went out.

After the door was closed, Monique stretched out her hand and pulled Nelson over to sit down on a chair.

“I didn’t notice the assassination in time a few days ago. However, don’t worry, I’ve already asked someone to destroy their family. Nothing like this will happen in the future anymore. After all, you’re my most valued subordinate. Richard told me that you were injured? Let me have a look!”

As she spoke, she was about to take Nelson’s clothes off.

Nelson hurriedly retreated his steps while saying, “There’s no need for that. They’ve all healed.”

Monique’s finger paused, and the corner of her mouth twitched again.

“What? Are you being shy? When you were with me when you were a child, didn’t I help you treat your injuries?”

Nelson smiled lightly and replied, “It’s now different from the past. Miss Monique is no longer the same as before. How can I let you do that?”

Monique smiled and said, “In that case, forget it. I will stay here for a period of time. If anything happens to you, you can contact me at any time. Oh, and don’t you dare try to do anything against me. What I hate the most is betrayal! Otherwise, I won’t let you and Naomi get away with it!”
