Chapter 8. The Secret Behind a Delicious Sandwich
Last Updated:
2024-02-16 11:18:28A man Nathan knew walked in; he looked surprised to see Nathan coughing; he looked at the table; there were some appetizing-looking sandwiches. Nathan quickly grabbed a glass and sipped water to neutralize his gagging.
"Asshole! Why didn't you knock first?" he scolded.
The newly arrived man scratched his hair and grinned, "He he, sorry boss, I forgot," Michael replied innocently. Without prompting, he sat down next to Nathan.
"Well, that looks delicious, Tan. Didn't you offer it to me?" Michael whined as he stared at the sandwiches on the table.
"You haven't had breakfast yet, Mike?" asked Nathan as he continued eating; Michael shook his head.
"Well, just take a piece, no more," Nathan said.
"Ha ha ha, since when has this boss been so stingy with breakfast, he usually gives me food to finish." Michael laughed and grumbled, but his hand was actively reaching for a piece of sandwich.
"Tsk, noisy, this is different, it's special." Both men were busy munching on the food on the table until it was gone.
"Tan, it's really yummy. Where do you order it? I want to order it tomorrow too." Michael said seriously.
"It's delicious, isn't it?" asked Nathan with a smile.
"It's delicious," Michael replied, "where do you buy it? I want to order some." Nathan didn't answer; he just smiled.
"Come on, Tan. I'll buy it myself; I'm not asking for a treat; just give me the number, and I'll order it."
"Tsk, what the hell, Mike? It's just a sandwich; you can order it anywhere." Nathan reasoned that he couldn't tell Nina it was Nina's; it wasn't time for his best friend to know.
"This is different, Tan. It's like something a famous chef would make." Michael said thoughtfully, "You know, I'm a foodie, so I can know what's made by an ordinary person, and what's made by a chef."
Nathan laughed at his friend's analysis, and Michael was stunned when Nathan explained that it was handmade by an ordinary person, not a chef. But Nathan insisted on not telling him, making Michael even more curious.
"Don't worry, I'll order some more tomorrow, just come here," said Nathan.
"Seriously, Tan?" asked Michael brightly. Nathan nodded, "um, but there are conditions," added Nathan. Michael looked at his friend questioningly. "Knock before you come in, you nearly choked me to death."
Michael couldn't contain his laughter; he laughed at his friend's strange behavior, "Okay, boss. Sorry."
The two friends and cousins had a serious conversation, especially if it wasn't Nathan's problems with his family.
"Hmm, is that so?" muttered Nathan.
"That's right, Tan. You need to convince Grandad to end your formal relationship." Michael argued that he was fed up with a woman who was formally part of his extended family but whose behavior was utterly contrary to the principles of their extended family.
"'Granddad won't be able to do anything about it, Mike. Because the terms and conditions are clear, if I marry the girl I love and she loves me, then the formal relationship will end on its own." Nathan emphasized.
"Yes, but until then Tan? You are like an iceberg with women; how will you ever find true love? Every day, you date files and files and files," Michael complained, concerned about his friend's life.
Nathan smiled at his friend, "Relax, bro. The warm sun will melt the ice soon, and then spring will come and the flowers will bloom." Nathan patted Michael's shoulder, who was staring at his cousin's words.
Nathan rushed outside for a meeting with the client before he told Emmy that by noon, Richard and Nina should be ready to present their report.
"Emmy," called Mike, still frozen in Nathan's room.
"Yes, Mr. Mike," she replied quickly.
"Did your boss take the wrong medicine?" asked Mike in confusion.
"What do you mean, sir?" replied Emmy in surprise, "Mr. Nathan is in good health, so he hasn't taken any medication."
Michael sighed, "I mean, there's something strange about your boss, what he just said doesn't sound like something Nathan would say."
"Sorry, sir. I don't understand those words, but Mr. Nathan's activities are normal, nothing strange." Emmy was momentarily silent, "oh yes, the difference is that Mr. Nathan had a sandwich for breakfast."
"Well, a sandwich," Michael interrupted, his curiosity piqued, "where did Nathan order a sandwich?"
"It wasn't ordered, sir. Someone delivered it," Emmy said.
"Someone? Who?" asked Michael, even more confused.
"I'm sorry, sir. I can't tell you." Emmy always kept her boss's secrets; it was part of her job. "Excuse me, sir. I still have a lot of work to do." The woman quickly turned around, leaving a confused Michael behind.
"Wait, Emmy!" Michael rushed after Emmy. The woman stopped and looked at Mike.
"Was it a girl who sent the sandwich?" asked Michael.
"Yes, a girl," Emmy replied flatly as she hurried along on her long legs. Michael nodded with a smile.
"Looks like Nathan has found his mate, but what girl can stand that iceberg? But this is interesting; I have to find out; there seems to be a secret behind that delicious sandwich," Michael muttered as the lawyer hurriedly left Nathan's office.
Emmy told Nina and Richard about Nathan's message separately. Nathan's assistant also gave her a bundle of files. She had made a hard copy of Nina's proposal report.
Lunchtime arrived, and Laura immediately invited Nina to have lunch with her, as usual. Nina didn't talk much; the beautiful girl, who was usually energetic, became quiet; there was a look of depression and nervousness on her beautiful face.
"Nina, what's wrong with you?" asked Laura, confused. Before Nina could say anything, a man suddenly stood in front of them.

Nathan was stunned, "Sorry, what does that mean?""Well, sir. I'm the president director of a company in Belfast, so I can easily give you a position in my company, so you're not jobless here."The man said proudly. He was the husband of one of Nina's cousins who had no role in O'Meisceall Castle. He could attend the event because his wife had received an invitation. After all, her father was one of Lord Arthur's cousins."Oh, thank you for your kind offer," Nathan replied with a smile, although deep in his heart, he was annoyed because they indirectly accused Nathan of living on his wife's family.As Aran happened to overhear the man's conversation, he felt obligated to set the record straight."Haha, what did you offer Sir Nathan Wilson earlier?" Aran laughed as he approached Nathan and the man; of course, Aran's laughter drew the attention of the others, so they all turned to the three people."As you all know, the Wilson family is one of the Crazy Rich families in New York City.

"Tan, you should go back to Philly." Grandpa Wilson asked Nathan to come back. Nathan was stunned to learn why his grandfather was asking him to return. The grandfather explained that he had already agreed with Nathan's uncle and aunt to celebrate Nina's pregnancy because this was their first great-grandchild and their first grandchild."Geez, I wonder what's wrong, Grandpa." Nathan laughed at his grandfather's explanation. But I'm sorry, Grandpa. My wife and I won't be able to return anytime soon, as this is a vulnerable time for my wife's pregnancy. She'll be exhausted from the long flight."There was a sigh from Grandpa Wilson. "Is Nina not doing well?""Oh, everything is good, Grandpa. I don't have to worry here, because the Castle has family doctors and nurses who keep a close eye on her, and the food for my wife is specially made with the right nutrients for her gestational age. Also, here I don't have to worry about people having bad intentions towards my wife."Nathan reminde

"What's important, what's important Nathany?" asked Nina in confusion."Honey, we've been making love all month, not a single night off.""Are you bored, Nathany? Or tired?" interrupted Nina quickly, both of them a young couple who were still very passionate about sex.Nathan chuckled at his wife's comment. "How could I be bored, baby. You know, I often ask for more.""Hm, so?" Nina was confused by her husband's attitude."I'm just wondering for this month, the previous months I used to take a week off at the beginning of the month, waiting for your monthly guests to finish, but this month...""Nathany." Nina gasped at her husband's mention of monthly guests. She quickly got up and grabbed her cell phone to look at her monthly calendar."Oh my God! Nathany!" Nina squealed as she covered her mouth."What's wrong, baby?" Nathan woke up and tensed up."My Hubby Baby, I'm six days late," Nina said happily."Oh, really?" Nathan was surprised. Nina nodded as she showed him her menstrual cal

"Dad..." Aran murmured, his eyes filled with tears as he saw his father looking strong and healthy. It was indeed a miracle. Previously, his father looked helpless, let alone able to walk like that; just to get up, he had to be carried.Lord Arthur smiled at Aran and Nathan warmly. He went to his seat in the center while Nina sat on the right next to him. Nathan sat next to Nina. Aran sat across from Nina; he was to the left of his father."I'm sorry you waited so long. My baby Alicia fell asleep," said Lord Arthur, smiling. He looked at Nina, who was also smiling embarrassedly."It's okay, Dad. I'm so happy to see your condition now, it's a miracle." Aran said enthusiastically."That's right, Aran. We're going to celebrate Lady Maxwell's arrival, as well as the confirmation of her title and the recording of her name in the Maxwell family register."Lord Arthur said excitedly. He ordered Fred to prepare everything, and his face lit up. Since it was a little late, he immediately ordere

"The thing is, I'm suspicious of my wife and brother," Nathan said while looking at his brother-in-law. His handsome face looked serious. Aran's face was no less serious seeing his brother-in-law like that. Suspicious of what?"What does that mean? Suspicious of Alice? Suspicious in what way?"A series of questions rolled out of the young nobleman's mouth. Nathan sighed, explaining that Nina was young, energetic, and not a typical spoiled woman who liked to complain. Since childhood, her mother had trained her to be independent. She always endured any hardship without complaining. If it was just going up and down the stairs, it wasn't something she could complain about.Ever since Nathan had known Nina, she had never complained about anything to him. They did like to discuss things, but not as complaints. However, Nathan remembered that Nina had complained that she was often tired, felt tired easily, and wanted to laze around in her room. That happened a few days before the collision,

Nina and Nathan were stunned. Important news? What important news? Wasn't dinner still an hour away?Nina and Nathan rushed to meet Mr. Fred, the man Lord Arthur had personally sent to fetch Nina to his private quarters. Nina was stunned, her heart beating erratically. She had been waiting for this: meeting her father as a daughter and father in person.Nathan could feel his wife's anxiety. He patted Nina's shoulder gently and then grasped Nina's hand, which began to feel cold. Nathan nodded with a smile of support."Come on baby, it's the time you've been waiting for. I'll carry you all the way down."Nathan stroked his wife gently. Nina nodded, the support from her husband calming her down. Nathan carried Nina down the stairs, and even though Nina refused, Nathan immediately carried his wife."Take your time honey, I'll wait for you in front of the pavilion until you get back.""What is it, Nathany, you can rest in the room," Nina refused."No-no. I don't want to see my wife exhaust
