Chapter 12 Master at Play Hard-to-Get

"I assume Miss Shen is a talented professional, who would separate business and family matter." "Nathaniel subtly nodded to his assistant, Thomas. Thomas Immediately made a gesture to welcome Mango. " "There was a moment, Nathaniel felt a familiar scent from Mango, which made him want to explore." "Mango sneered, ""Maybe you should deal with your family matter before talking business, Mr. Ye. Remember, family is always the first.""" "After that, Mango strode to the front gate. Thomas quickly followed up, while seeking further instruction from Nathaniel. With a helpless sigh, Nathaniel nodded again. Thomas got the silent permission, walked Mango out." "Now, Macy put on a pitiful look and stepped forward, ""Nathan, I didn't know she's here for work, but she provoked me first... I-""" What are you doing here? Nathaniel's frosty face made Macy even more uneasy. "I brought your breakfast, for your health. I didn't mean to interrupt. Don't be mad at me, okay?" "Macy pulled Nathaniel's sleeve, pitifully." Nathaniel eyed Macy. The look was tolerant but insightful. Macy looked away. Nathan... Why? He was so disappointed at Macy's behavior. But this wasn't her first time. "Macy was trying to refute, but seeing Nathaniel's cunning look, she could not help stammering ""Yes, but I was...""" "That was a world-famous car designer, whom I invited at all costs. Now that she has left, congratulations! I could lose up to millions because of your stupidity, let alone the reputation of Infiniverse. Macy Cho, YOU GO apologize to that woman and hopefully, she forgives you. She'd better show up at the meeting tomorrow, or I'll chase you away from my family!" Nathaniel left Macy and walked out. Macy was stunned and her face was pale. "No! Nathan, you can't do this to me! I am Wise's mother. What happens to him if I'm not around? Nathan, I am wrong. I really didn't mean it." She suddenly hugged Nathaniel's arm and pleaded miserably. Five years had passed. "She gave birth to Wisdom Ye and lived in the Ye family as ""the mother of Nathan's son"". However, Nathaniel's attitude to her was very different." Nathaniel was very nice to Wise and satisfied all his demands. But to the mother was like a stranger to him. "Everyone thought that he was very kind to her, and he provided wealth. But what she wanted was to be his wife, instead of just the ""mother of Nathaniel's son""." "However, he kept ignoring her. No matter how hard she tried, she was not even allowed in his bedroom, let alone in his heart. Now leaving the family was a nightmare to Macy." "I will apologize, I will ask for her forgiveness! Just don't take Wise from me! I almost bled to death giving birth to him. Have you forgotten?" Why else do you think I kept you in the family? Nathaniel replied without mercy. Macy trembled. "Looking at this heartless man in front of her, she couldn't stand it for a while." "Nathan, how can you do this to me?" "Miss Zhang, from now on, Miss Cho is not allowed to set foot in my company without my permission! If you can't do it, you can submit resignation to HR." He ignored Macy and left the hall. "Thomas came back and followed him into the elevator. ""Find out Miss Shen's hotel. Send her a present. An expensive one. Compensation from me, personally."" said Nathaniel." "Understand, Sir. So asking Miss Cho to apologize was to?" "Thomas had to ask, but knowingly, because he'd been the boss's sidekick for years. " "Nathaniel glanced at Thomas faintly, ""Macy's apology is personal. Compensation shows the company's standpoint. Do you really think Miss Shen wanted to cancel the cooperation? She was merely bluffing and playing hard-to-get. Interesting... Forget about it, pick up a fancy gift, I will personally send it to her.""" Thomas thought for a sec and understood. But he had to act imbecilic to ensure Nathaniel's intercultural superiority. "Sir, that's not necessary. You are way above her." Don't butter up. She wants me to invite her personally. I need to find out what she's up to. Do as I say. "The elevator stopped. Nathaniel stepped out and headed back to his office, but Thomas was a bit concerned." Five years had passed. He hadn't seen the boss being personal with any woman. A master at playing hard-to-get? This Katherine was really that good?
