‘How can you think he likes you?’


    Nathalie ran towards the exit without giving it a second thought, thedy was heartbroken indeed.


    ‘He is a jerk, just like my father. He is the same.’


    She rashly wiped off her cheek and made sure that no one could hear her sniffles.


    ‘How can you even imagine that he likes you? Duh! Can’t you clearly see that he is using you? How can you forget why he came here?’


    She reminded herself of their first meeting where Lucas yed a poor and desperate guy to snag her attention. The guy sessfully paved his way into making her present the contract herself.


    Later on when Nathalie had kept the wedding a secret her grandpa took Lucas in, the old man yed along introducing him as the male chef.


    ‘Tpu should have known that he needed money, that’s why he agreed to this marriage. Ande on Nat! How can you forget that you were the one to tell him ‘no flings’ and now you want real emotions?’


    Her steps immediately got dignified as Nathalie walked towards the frontwn, she couldn’t let anybody see her at the weakest hour. How could she let anybody narrate how easy she was in that particr moment.


    Thedy sniffed and with onest thought about the issue she reached thewn, the resplendent vi had a wide grassy entrance to represent the grandeur of the Lancaster family.


    ‘Come on Nat, this is not the time you think about him. You need to focus on today’s deal.’


    She was determined to sign the deal with the Petrakis group today. And definitely the deal was a total benefit to her, it wasn’t an aid set by Lucas but an actual deal which was supposed to happen a month ago.


    The driver opened the door and thedy drove to the Corp while hiding her emotions in the cocoon of her strictness. Nathalie stared outside the window and recalledst night while her anger rose again.


    ‘He didn’t even bother to apologize or to stop me.’


    Grief was audibly shrieking in her eyes as thedy threw back her head and held back the tears. Nathalie was shocked upon herself that how could that man make her feel softness towards him.


    ‘He didn’t want to clear up things, I guess. Fair enough. I was the one who never treated him as my husband but now I want to im monopoly over him.’


    Her whirlpool of assumptions made things even more difficult that Nathalie crafted out a list of possible conclusions.


    The vehicle reached the Corp and halted in front of a huge ss building, thedy crept out radiating an imposing aura as if she had owned the world!


    Nathalie walked inside wearing a stern expression while a few voices greeted her along the way up to her cabin. Her personal assistant strode in with the schedule and began to narrate it.


    “Mr Petrakis won’t be able to join us in today’s meeting for personal reasons, but his personal secretary will be visiting us for further details.”


    The woman finished her list waiting for Nathalie’s response who had been sitting nkly with ankles on the table and fingers interlocked.


    She coughed intentionally to snag her attention and repeated the statement, while this time Nat responded with a hand gesture.


    “Okay, bring me coffee and don’t let anybody inside for the next one hour.”


    Thedy nodded and crept out of the room immediately sensing that if she didn’t then a scolding would arrive.


    Meanwhile back there in the vi Lucas had rushed towards Nathalie to exin to her why the kissing incident happened. And that he didn’t know the woman at all, it was some staff person of Lancaster family who took a liking towards him.


    The woman immediately tricked him into a kiss as soon as Lucas was done with toasting the bread, she hoped that he would notice her this time and even if through scolding she would get his attention.


    What she didn’t expect was Nathalie to appear in the picture, the staffdy was a new recruit and thus was unaware of Lucas’ identity as son inw.


    He had lunged towards Nathalie to clear up the things but thedy cunningly cut her wrist to stop Lucas from leaving her. No matter how engrossed he had been in his thoughts, a kind hearted man like him didn’t feel right to leave her at that moment.


    Lucas had to bandage her wrist by attending to the wound and then took her to the hospital which consumed his time. And that’s how Nathalie got hours to assume things which had never urred, their already worst rtionship was about to undergo another blow.


    ‘I should leave now.’


    Lucas had been sitting outside the ward in the hospital with a worrisome expression, not because he was concerned about the staff but his own wife.Têxt ? N?velDrama.Org.


    ‘My men can take care of her now. I should leave and focus on Nathalie, she must be angry at me now.’


    The man raked through his hair and sighed helplessly.


    ‘Come on! This had to happen when our rtionship was finally improving? Fuck!’


    Lucas became angry over thedy and punched the bench while the nurse standing nearby got goosebumps.


    ‘I have to make it up to Nat, I can’t leave her alone for any more time. Assumptions should be tended immediately or they get worse with every passing minute.


    The man rattled out his phone and dialled to his right hand man, the tapping of his foot clearly indicated how impatient he was.


    “Mark! I want you toe at XXX hospital and make sure this woman gets a job somewhere else, preferably in some household with no young men.”


    He didn’t want others to undergo such trouble thus passed thest demand out of generosity for others. Lucas ended the call and thought for a moment about his next strategy, because Nathalie Lancaster was a hot headed and stubborn woman.


    A wide smirk appeared on his lips as the devilishly handsome man thought of something no less than a devil’s deed itself. Lucas Petrakis was ready to take over and im his woman!
