Nicolas let out a sigh of relief and prepared to climb down. The previously quiet Cooper saw his foot moving, suddenly stood up. and barked loudly scaring Nicolas into losing his footing and falling straight down from the tree into a rose bush.
The commotion in the yard finally alerted the people in the house, the front door opened, and a hoarse female voice came out,
“Trisha?”
Trisha was helping Nicolas up, hearing the voice, and responded, “Grandma”
“Why didn’t you come inside when you got back? What are you doing in the yard?” The old lady walked into the yard, saw the mess, and asked in surprise. Did we get robbed?”
Trisha finally helped Nicolas up from the rose bush: “It’s this guy Cooper, he was chasing my friend all over the yard and made him fall from a tree”
The old lady finally noticed the tall young man standing next to her granddaughter, except right now this man was covered in rose leaves, with quite a few small cuts from rose thorns on his arms and face.
She didn’t know if he got dirt on his face when he fell, but his face was covered in dirt.
The old lady finally said, “You better go in and change your clothes; look at you”
Nicolas thought he was going to meet the elder in a graceful manner; he didn’t expect it would end in such an awkward way Usually eloquent, he didn’t even have the courage to speak for himself right now.
Nicolas was full of rose thorns. Trisha wanted to help him pull them out, but seeing there are too many, she suggested, “Why don’t you change and take a shower first? Wait till tomorrow when there’s light, and I’ll help you pull them all out”
Nicolas nodded, but when he went to get his luggage, he found that his suitcase had been opened at some point, and a few of his clothes had been taken out by Cooper, chewed for a while, then used as bedding for its nest.
This dog must have done it on purpose!
[Mini Drama]
One day, Liam was at work, and got a WhatsApp message from Celest saying that the price for HR was high now.
Liam replied, It’s okay.
Celest. Last year’s price was cheaper.
Liam: That’s because of inflation; prices for everything will go up.
Celest: But this had exceeded my budget.
Liam asks her. Did you need HR?
Celest: I’ve been so busy at work lately, staying up late too; I need to relax.
Liam thought about her staying up late filming recently, her dark circles can’t even be covered up. He felt a bit bad, replied: Don’t worry, Fil arrange it for you.
Celeste immediately replied. Thank you, darling.
Trisha gave a thumbs–up next to her and said, “So that’s how you save money?”
Celeste casually said, “It’s just giving him a chance to give a gift”
Trisha felt like she had gotten the hang of it, so she tried the same trick Celeste used on Liam on Nicolas
Nicolas immediately responded, “The client sent a few sets to me last time, I’ll have them delivered to our house Imitating Celeste’s tone, Trisha replied, “You’re taking me for granted, giving me something that was gifted by others? Nicolas was surprised. Why did this style of speaking feel so familar? It didn’t sound like Trisha, but more like Celeste
He replied, “Baby, you’re pregnant now: you shouldn’t use random stuff, it’s not good for our child After you give birth we’ll go to their headquarters for wholesale”
Trisha was immediately appeased.
Celeste shook her head from the side and asked, “Do you really believe him? After you give birth, he’ll say it’s not suitable for you during breastfeeding. Hasn’t Nicolas broken enough promises over the years?”
Nicolas had always been thrifty, whic: became more obvious after they got married He canceled the annual memberships at all the entertainment venues except for the two places he often used for business meetings. His hobby of collecting sports cars he also decreased lately. Even when she wanted to change her ride, he refused on the grounds that it wasn’t suitable for her during pregnancy, only assigning her a chauffeur for pick–up and drop–off.
Comparisons were scary. Seeing Liam cater to Celeste’s every whim made her feel like Nicolas wasn’t caring enough. Men with too many ex–girlfriends were indeed trouble.
Just as she was getting angry Nicolas sent her a picture of a house purchase contract.
*pick an auspicious day, let’s move”
Trisha was stunned. She took another look at the address on the contract, and her heart started racing You bought that villa?
Nicolas replied, “I need to provide you with a better environment, I can’t let your morn think I’m not ambitious and always want to take you home”
“Did you pay in full or take out a loan?”
“Of course I paid in full. The interest rate is so high, why would I let the bank profit from me? If it weren’t for the fact that most of the funds couldn’t be released immediately, I wouldn’t have waited this long for the payment.”
Trisha was deeply moving. No wonder he hadn’t been buying sports cars recently, he was saving up to buy a house.
Just as she was moved, Celeste’s phone rang. It was Owen saying. “Madam, we’ve arrived.”
Celeste immediately went to open the door. Instead of the expected gift boxes, she saw Owen with a man.
She was taken aback and asked, “Who is this?”
Owen introduced. This is Quantum’s top HR specialist; he has a keen eye. With his help in recruiting, your workload will be halved” Celeste was surprised for a moment, then heard Trisha’s bell–like laughter. “Hahaha, so this is the HR specialist Liam was talking about, not the brand Helena Rubinstein.”
