Adrian snickered at Nadine's question. He suddenly closes the door in front of Nadine. But Nadine blocked the door with her legs. Nadine winced a little because the door hit her leg.

"Ouch!"

Adrian instantly released his door and Nadine took the opportunity to barge in and left Adrian speechless with her action.

"Can you please not disturb me!"

Nadine ignored his shout and just went to his house. That house looks so small compared to her house, but it feels so warm inside there. She remembered in her past life he brought her to that house once. And that's because she forced him to do that.

Wanting to get close to her husband's aunt and bonding with his other family members, she forced him to take her to his parent's home. But that didn't go as she had planned. Because, like this time, there is her love rival, Olivia. Both of them, sitting at that house, have a good chat with Adrian's aunt.

And suddenly Nadine just went mad, jealousy took over her, instead of the good attitude that came from her, her evil and arrogant side that she was showing to them.

Honestly, she really liked that cozy house but she was mocking that tiny house. She was told that it just looked like her bedroom size. And she left an angry Adrian in Olivia's care.

"Your house looks so cozy!"

She is going around his house without Adrian's permission. When she wanted to enter his living room, Adrian suddenly blocked her from entering his house.

"You're not welcome here!"

Nadine gave him a small smile.

"Oh... Don't worry, we can talk here. If you agree with my offering, we can finish at any minute."

Adrian really doesn't wanna have a good talk with her.

"We had a deal at your office a moment ago. So we don't have anything to discuss anymore and just wait for tomorrow's wedding."

Nadine still insists on talking with him no matter what.

"Just listen to my deal...."

Adrian stood still at his entrance and refused her. Nadine feels a little annoyed with his stubbornness and doesn't have any option to say that word.

"Okay, let's get straight to the point. Cancel the wedding and I'll help you to get your company back."

Adrian looks pissed off this time and drags Nadine to go outside his house.

"You really like to throw away your toys when you get bored, huh? Not just that, you broke them first and left them like a piece of trash."

Nadine was triggered by his words and lost her calm a bit.

"You're not my toy and not trash. You should be grateful that I will be canceling our wedding! You can be together with Olivia again."

Adrian is shocked when Nadine shouts Olivia's name. And grab her arm with force to threaten her.

"If you do a wicked thing to her, I will never forgive you! And you can't cancel the wedding, never."

Nadine whinced again because of his strong grip.

"Hiss.... You should be happy with my plan. Why are you against it so much?"

Adrian releases his grip, seeing Nadine in pain. And trying his best to stay calm.

"Listen, Miss Have Everything, I can't cancel the wedding because my father has already sold the company and all our property to your father."

That line gave her a shock. She never knew that in her previous life.

"What!! I've never known that deal."

Adrian snickered again and looked at Nadine with a disgusted gaze.

"Like hell you didn't know that. You tricked my father first and made him bankrupt to force him to sell his company!!!"

Nadine still has quite disbelief about what Adrian spouts at her. She has never done that scheming thing. This was the first time she heard about this.

"Wait.... Wait... Are you sure your father sold your resort to our company?"

Adrian rages again and shouts at her. His usually calm and gentle self was gone for a minute.

"Then tell me who it is!!! Your father didn't know either why my father chose to sell his company!!!"

Nadine is still thinking about this.

"And why does it matter about our wedding?"

Adrian really doesn't know what happened to Nadine. Because she really looks like an innocent girl.

"Miss Merrick, because of your selfish wish to marry me, your father has a deal with my father. Our marriage will become our guarantor, he will give me back the company after I married you for 5 years."

"Wait.... Wait ... Trust me, I don't know about that."

Adrian still didn't believe it and just snickered.

"Huh don't act like an innocent maiden."

"Well... The first point is true, I'm the one who tricked your father with that fake project but about the sold company matter, trust me I don't know about this."

Nadine told the truth, she just tricked him with that fake project, not forcing him to sell his company and make that agreement with her father.

"Whatever you say, I won't cancel the wedding. Because I want to take my company back. Even if I had to go through that hellish wedding for five years."

Adrian still refuses to cancel the wedding.

"I can talk to my father. But first, I need your agreement to cancel the wedding."

Nadine tries to convince him again.

"Huh? And he will throw you a knife this time. Miss Merrick, you are the one who wants to marry me and drag my family to an unfortunate event. And now you want to run away after you've got what you want?"

He doesn't believe her and is still shouting at her. Nadine wants to defend herself but Adrian cuts her word immediately.

"Miss Merrick... I don't know what's wrong with you. But your father has clearly said that he won't support you if you don't do the contract. He doesn't want to lose his face because you've cancelled the wedding. And I don't want to lose my family resort."

"Like I've said. I will find the way. Just refuse the wedding."

Nadine didn't want to lose to Adrian's statement.

"Miss Merrick, it's too late. This is all property and my family life is owned by your father. My father left a lot of debt because of your trick. And left that agreement as his final way to save our resort."

Adrian let out a heavy sigh.

"Go on! Cancel it.... Do whatever you wanna do! But I will find a way to get revenge on you."

Nadine looks so frustrated. She doesn't want to repeat everything and canceled her wedding. On the other hand, her husband doesn't want to let her go because of his father's agreement.

"It's just the same thing, it would repeat again if we held our wedding."

Nadine let out her frustration.

"What is the same thing? You ruin my family, so don't ever think that you will live easily."

Adrian threatens her again.

"But wouldn't you feel sad if you broke up with Olivia?"

Adrian gritted his teeth and shouted again to Nadine.

"Don't bring her into this mess!!! She doesn't deserve it!!"

"I..."

Riiing Riiing

Adrian took his phone and looked worried.

"Aunty? What? I'll be right there."

He drags Nadine out with a worried face.

"Is aunty okay?"

Nadine seemed worried too.

"I don't have time to fight with you."

Adrian forced her to get out of his house.

"Wait.... I can drive you to the hospital."

Adrian clearly doesn't want to take Nadine to hospital.

"I will just drop you there and go. It'll be faster than calling a taxi."

Adrian was still agitated about Nadine's offering but he gradually accepted her offer.

"Just drop me there. And don't make a fuss."

    "Okay... Our interview is over. After that we will have a small favour."Nadine seemed a little confused about Ellen's words."We want a romantic dinner photo session. Miss Nadine has also booked it for tonight."Nadine looked very surprised. Because in the past she did not remember holding the photo session."Ah! It must be because of that."Nadine's loud voice, which seemed to remember something, made Ellen and Adrian immediately turn to look at her. When she realized that Adrian and Ellen were giving her a confused look, she gulped and tried to find an excuse. "Ha ha... I seem to have found my problem at work."Nadine did her best to distract the people in the room. "Miss Nadine... You should enjoy your honeymoon and stop thinking about work."Ellen shook her head and gave a little sigh, then turned her head to Adrian."You too... Don't just ignore your wife. And get a great vacation."Adrian smiled a little when she heard Ellen nagging. Seeing her husband smiling because of a w

  • Coming Back, To Say Goodbye!   24. The Interview

    "Ellen Rogers?"Nadine muttered as she kept remembering who the woman in front of her was. Of course, she had met Ellen before because she was the one who interviewed her in her previous life.But she had a feeling that she had seen her somewhere."I immediately took this job when I found out that the client this time was Adrian."Adrian laughed at Ellen's words. Nadine frowned at Adrian, who looked very familiar with Ellen. While waiting for Ellen's crew to prepare for the interview, she continued to observe Ellen. Feeling observed by Nadine, she turned to Nadine who was still standing not far from them."Aah sorry for my impoliteness. Adrian was a classmate from the same club in college."Ellen looked nervous then tucked her bangs behind her ear."Oh it's okay... You guys can continue."Nadine gave both of them the best smile. And immediately went to the crew who were arranging chairs in her living room.Once again she glanced at Ellen, who now had her back facing her. Again she tuc

    "Did you have fun there?"Nadine laughed at Anna's question."Ha ha ha... I'm working here, Ann."Anna chuckled in disbelief."Tsk.... It's good that Miss Nadine is enjoying her vacation."Nadine smiled again."Miss Nadine.... I have arrived at the hospital but I haven't seen Mr. Benjamin yet. Can you help me contact him?"Nadine slapped her forehead, realizing her stupidity. "Ugh... How can I forget that important thing?"She forgot to give Anna Benjamin's phone number."Wait, I'll ask Adrian."Without closing her cellphone, she rushed to meet Adrian who was in his room. She waited a moment on front of his door but Adrian's door opened from the inside just as Nadine wanted to knock on his door."Oops...."Nadine was surprised because Adrian came out with the phone still in his ear. He was a little confused when he saw Nadine at his door with a cell phone in her hand."Benjamin.""Anna."They almost said the two names at the same time."You're calling Anna?"Nadine nodded at Adrian's

  • Coming Back, To Say Goodbye!   22. Peacefull Morning

    "Huh?"She rubbed her eyes as she opened them."Hmmm...."Feeling something warm in her arms, Nadine prepared to go back to sleep. But when she realized she was hugging something weird, she immediately touched it."Hah!"Nadine, who was shocked, immediately opened her eyes and threw those hands in her arms."You've made my hand like a hugging pillow all night without wanting to let it go. And when you're bored you just throw it down."Nadine immediately sat up and carefully looked to the side."Hah!"Hearing Nadine shout loudly, Adrian immediately covered his ears in annoyance."How did you get here?"Nadine then shifted away from Adrian who was massaging his hand."Haaaah.... Looks like you had another nightmare last night. I just wanted to tell you to move to your room."Adrian paused for a moment to tidy up his wrinkled sleeves because Nadine didn't want to take them off at all last night."Then suddenly you grabbed my hand and didn't want to let go all night. What were you dreamin

  • Coming Back, To Say Goodbye!   21. Thank You Adi

    "I hope so."Adrian immediately raised his head and was surprised to hear Nadine."Joking Adrian..... I'm just joking...."This time Adrian didn't want to say anything and glared at Nadine, who was ready to leave. Although she said it was joking, her bitter face said the other way."You don't look like you were joking Na..."Before Adrian couldn't finish his words, Nadine stood up from her chair."I'm done. I will continue my work. Enjoy your holiday."Adrian looked at Nadine's plate, which was barely even touched."Her plate is still full of food."Adrian was still a little bit worried about Nadine's joke. He never saw Nadine look so vulnerable even though usually she looked like she didn't have any fear at all."What a strange rich lady."That day Nadine spent her time mostly in her room. She just went out to get some food and she took it back to the room. She seems to have locked herself in her room to get busy to ignore her nightmare.It's pretty contradictory to her past life. Whi

  • Coming Back, To Say Goodbye!   20. Nightmare

    "Nadine!!! Wake up!!!"Nadine woke up to Adrian's loud voice. She doesn't seem to be fully aware yet. Tears were still streaming down from her cheeks. Her gaze on Adrian was full of hope and, without thinking, she immediately hugged Adrian tightly and cried loudly while constantly apologizing to him and her "baby"."I'm sorry Adrian.... I'm sorry my son... Really, your mother is really sorry."The words kept repeating until Adrian was confused. He wanted to free himself from Nadine's arms but when he saw Nadine's body shaking from crying so hard, he finally let it go.This strong woman, who doesn't seem to know the word surrender and is able to do anything to get her wish, looks so weak and broken in front of Adrian."Nadine?"Nadine was still sobbing."Nadine? I really don't know what you're talking about."The sound of her crying had subsided a little and Nadine was a little surprised. Her eyes widened in shock when she realized that she had hugged Adrian. Her shock seemed to have m
