Chapter 122
The Greatest Man Alive
Everyone was shocked.
This Ms. Alexandra actually sat on this manâs lap!
Who on earth was he?
âAlexandra, why donât you toast to Mr. Nathan?!â Louie reminded her with displeasure.
Alexandra came back to her senses and hurriedly picked up the wine bottle to pour wine for Nathan.
She smiled. âMr. Nathan, Iâm very sorry for what happened last time. I didnât expect you to come here again! What an honor!â
Nathan calmly said, âItâs okay. Iâve already had enough. So I wonât drink anymoreâ¦â
Alexandra didnât mind his rejection at all. She drank three glasses of wine, and her cheeks were flushed.
âSince you donât want to drink, I finished three glasses to show my respect!â Then, she turned around and poured another three glasses for Luna. âLuna, toast to Mr. Nathan.â
Luna was shocked. She didnât understand why her sister had to toast this man, and he also seemed rather close to Louie. Luna didnât dare to ask, so she drank three glasses in a row without saying anything.
Everyone was shocked by this situation and couldnât come to their senses.
âEveryone is free to drink today. I will waive the bill for you to show respect to Mr. Nathan,â Alexandra smiled.
At this moment, Jeromeâs expression was like a drama. He was numb, shocked, and terrified.
Louie smiled at everyone and said, âThank you for supporting Alexandra and coming to this bar for a drink. I, Louie Caslen, will have a drink with all of you!â
âLouie? You are Mr. Caslen! Oh, myâ¦â
âMr. Caslen is Nathanâs friend? He wants to drink with us and even waives our bill?â
âThis⦠This is incredible!â
Everyone was shocked for a while. Then, they raised their glasses and drank with Louie cautiously.
Jerome was desperate. He was pretentious and said he would introduce Louie to them, but Louie had already come over to drink with Nathan!
âMr⦠Mr. Caslen, I⦠Iâll offer you a toast!â Jerome held his glass and said tremblingly.
âDonât! How can I accept your toast if you donât toast Mr. Evans first?â Louie shook his head and pointed at Nathan.
Luna was very confused. Louie had always been influential and domineering, so she didnât understand why he feared this ordinary man so much.
The smile on Jeromeâs face froze.
He forced a smile and said, âMr. Evans, I was very rude. Iâm sorry. Please let me toast you!â
Nathan shook his head and said, âI see, but Iâve drank enough for todayâ¦â
âWell, okayâ¦â Jerome didnât dare to say anymore.
Louie respected Nathan very much, so Nathan must be a big shot that he couldnât afford to offend. He thought about his arrogance and stupidity and felt like someone had slapped his face hard. The slap wasnât real, but the pain was too much.
Jerome lowered his head and probably never wanted to show up in front of Angelina again.
âMs. Hopp, I canât drink anymore. Iâll leave now. Thank you for the hospitality,â Nathan tidied his clothes and walked out with a smile.
Angelina also stood up and said, âIâm also done. Iâll go with youâ¦â
Louie, Alexandra, and Luna also stood up in a hurry to see them off to avoid offending them.
Jerome and the others sat in a daze. Their faces were full of embarrassment and panic.
How come this bumpkin has such a big backgroundâ¦
Jerome didnât know how to react and felt like he could collapse to the ground.
After sending Nathan and Angelina out of the bar, Louie breathed a sigh of relief. He finally sent the devil away. It was so terrifying to get along with him!
âLouie, who is this person? Why do I feel that you are afraid of him?â Luna couldnât help asking.
âAfraid? He scares the crap out of me!â Louie rolled his eyes. âIn the future, if he comes to the bar, donât charge him for anything. And Luna! You donât offend him. You canât bear the consequence!â Then, Louie left with Alexandra.
Luna was curious. She knew Louie was a Senior Official of Dracodise, but why he didnât dare to offend Nathan?
Shall I win his heart?
Luna suddenly had an urge and looked in the mirror.
Her figure was as good as Angelina, who was slightly more beautiful than her. However, she was more charming and mature, and a wealthy girl like Angelina didnât have this kind of sexiness.
Angelina wanted to drive, but Nathan stopped her.
âDonât drink and drive. Do you want to go to jail? I donât want to be your prison guard,â Nathan smiled and took away her car keys.
âI didnât drink much. Iâm very sober.â Angelina said.
âItâs a matter of principle.â Nathan returned her keys but didnât let her get in the car. âLetâs take a taxi and leave the car here. You can come and drive back tomorrow.â
Angelina agreed, so she stopped a taxi on the side of the road and asked Nathan to accompany her.
Nathan wanted to say that he drank too much and wanted to go home to rest, but he didnât. He decided to make a change because someone always said that his heart was made of stone. As a result, he followed Angelina into the taxi.
âIâm really sorry for so many awkward situations. Next time, there will be only the two of us.â Angelina smiled and held Nathanâs arm.
Nathan wanted to take out his arm, but he felt rather comfortable. âOkay, letâs have dinner together next timeâ¦â
Angelina said, âJust dinner? Canât we see a movie, have ice cream, go to the amusement park, and then have dinner together?â
Nathan laughed and found her words quite amusing. They sat in the backseat and kept chatting. Soon, they arrived at Angelinaâs home.
âSir, wait for me.â Nathan got off the taxi with Angelina and asked the driver to wait for him.
Angelina looked at Nathan and smiled. She looked at him directly, but she wasnât shy at all.
âThank you for saving me, and thank you for sending me home!â Angelina smiled and waved at Nathan, then, she turned around and left.
Nathan got into the taxi again.
The taxi driver looked at him in surprise and asked, âWhy are you back?!â
âWhere should I be?â Nathan was stunned.
âHer house!â The driver said in shock as if he saw a monster.
Nathan looked at the driver in a daze, not understanding at all.
The driver scolded, âDude, youâre literally made of stone. How can you afford to live in Almonube Estate?â
Nathan was a little annoyed. He didnât expect a taxi driver to say he was made of stone.
***
The next day, Nathan was still resentful while thinking of the driverâs words.
How did he become a stone by sending Angelina home?
In the afternoon, Hannah made an appointment with Nathan to ask him out. Nathan felt warm when he thought about that kiss, and he gave up the plan of lying in bed all day.
At the shopping mall entrance, Nathan saw Hannah sitting in front of an ice cream shop. She was dressed in a black cutout dress. Her long legs crossed together, which attracted the attention of countless men passing by.
