However, when she thought about the arrival of Mr President's guests, she didn't dare to delay any further. Hurriedly, she followed Nicklaus' instructions and loosened her lowly tied ponytail. Her matte black hair scattered and draped on her waist line. The youthful energy in her was once again restored. However, Samantha dud not have time to admire herself. Instead she quickly undid the wierd looking nobow tie in her collar and fixed it back.Then she carefully looked into the mirror. After confirming that she looked presentable, she immediately walked out of the room."Mr President, I'm ready...."When she walked out, Nicklaus waa standing by the floor to ceiling window closest to the longue. His figure was tall and well built, and his hands were in his trouser pocket. He was staring out of the window in a daze and his deep black eyes were slightly narrowed.Hearing Sam's voice, he turned around and glanced at her with one of his meanest look. When he found out that she had in a th
Nicklaus stared at Samantha in silence. Only after she left with the door closing behind her did he shut his eyes again. Tnr pain in his expression deepened.It had been years since he developed gastric problems. Other than himself and his private doctors, no one knows about it.Although his gastric problem was caused by having coffee every morning on an empty stomach. It was long since he last had an attack. However this morning, his stomach has been in constant trouble since eleven. What was worse was thar he had never had such pain before.Enduring the pain, he repeatedly took deep breathes. It had always been quiet effective whenever he use this method to ease the discomfort in his stomach back then.However, it did not seem to work this time, and he felt that his stomach is churning with an overwhelming force, but there was no way he could call his doctor at such a moment.Hence, the only thing he could do was to endure it and he prayed it would be better after half an hour."Kno
"Mr President, Samantha is injured. I'm afraid she can't be the chef in the luncheon. Mrs Freya told me to let Nancy take her place" A minute before the luncheon started, Nicklaus walked out of his longue and was about to head to the bouquet hall when Vickie appeared with Nancy behind her.Initially, he had felt strange when he didn't see sam's figure in the crowd but now.....With his gaze as deep as eagle, he glanced at Vickie and Nancy. Without any hesitation, he said in a solemn and deep voice, "As long as it's not her right hand that is injured and she can walk and talk, call her over right now""Mr President.""Why? Are you trying to tell me what to do?" Before Vickie could say anything, he spoke again. Clearly, there was a strong sense of displeasure in his tone.Vickie's heart quivered and she immediately responded, "No, Mr President. I will go get Samantha to come here in an instant"After she spoke, she hurriedly turned and left without delay. Meanwhile, Nancy kept her head
Looking at Ashley who was threatening to commit suicide and Lydia who was cursing at him, James was so frustrated. With a frown on his face, he leaned towards Ashley and asked gloomily, "Is he the only man in the world? Why did you insist on marrying him?""Father, I will not marry anyone except from Stefan " As soon as she spoke, Ashley wailed again."Now, everyone in Breaton knows the relationship between Ash and Stefan, and they know she is his future wife. But now that Samantha has caused such a scene, I'm sure the Dante's family will not take it lightly. This is not just about Ashley's reputation but also the reputation of our family. If this issue go on like this, who will want to bother about us in the future? Who will even want to marry Ashley? With Samantha here, we will all be doomed!" Looking at James, Lydia analysed.Looking at his daughter, James sighed and asked, "Then what do you want to do?""Since Samantha made me like this, I want to kill her" standing by Ashley, Lyd
After the conference, Nicklaus and Liam went to visit the airplane production ant owned by the Leonardo's Group.Indeed, Leonardo's group is the largest financial group in the whole of Breaton that no one could surpass because they opened the largest design and manufacturing company in the country, even in the whole world. In fact, they had taken over two third of the heavy products in Breaton. Moreover, Leonardo's group was the production of civil and military airplane and they occupied nearly one third of the shares in the world.As the leader of Breaton and also the heir of the Leonardo's, Nicklaus was the best candidate to accompany CEO of startimes a tour around the factory.Meanwhile, Samantha was back at the kitchen cleaning up the plates Nicklaus and Liam used in having lunch. By the way, she was greatly impressed by the proposed technology of the Leonardo's group and also the first class production technology.She also had a better understanding as to why Nicklaus could stand

However, there was no much anger in his deep black eyes.Angrily, she pressed her right hand in her forehead and glared at him. With her anger flaring up, she applied more pressure on her left hand so as to get away from his grip. Annoyed, she responded, "Yes, I am a pig. Your chef is a pig. Are you happy now?"Looking at how she was acting like a little piglet, for some reason he smiled. Even his eyes were narrowed into a line and they shine like bright stars even he smiled.Worried that she will continue to struggle and then hurt her left hand more, he let her hand go and then he ordered, "Follow me..."After that, he strode out of her apartment in the mansion witho
At the entrance of the apartment, Samantha was stunned for a few seconds before she realized who was hugging her. The next second, she ignored the pain her hand and pushed Stefan away with all her strength."Sam, don't be like that..." Staggering backwards, Stefan regained his balance. He then stared stared at her with eyes full of affection and tenderness.However, she frowned and and shook her head.Suddenly, she felt helpless because she didn't know what to do to stop him from pestering her. In fact, she wanted him to stop having feelings for her and give up on her completely."Stefan, let's remain as friends. Just normal friends without complicated relationship " After a while, she made eye contact with him before she finally begged him."Sam why don't you understand how I feel got you?" Slightly agitated by her response, he grabbed her shoulders as he looked at her and said with deep affection, "You have always been the person I loved and after so many years, nothing changed. The
At work, sitting in a corner and leaning against the wall, Samantha felt drained today. It was not physical exhaustion but an unexplainable heavy psychological responsibility.Lifting her hand, she suddenly realized how uncomfortable it was, now that she was relaxed. As a matter of fact, the scalded part was supposed to be exposed to the air so as to speed up the healing process, yet if it were not for her work, she wouldn't have wrapped her hand in a thick layer of gauze. She had no idea of how long it would even take to heal.When she glanced around the hallway and saw that no was there nor coming, she decided to remove her bandage as she was feeling really uncomfortable at that moment.With that in mind, she decided to remove it.Perhaps it was poor ventilation, but after she slowly removed the bandage on her left hand, she noticed a few blisters had appeared on her left hand. Once the blister popped, some light yellow pus flowed out.Was it getting worse?Her brows were tightly fu
