Capítulo 21: Chapter 21

"W… who are you?" he asked. His voice seemed quivering and hoarse.

Even now she was afraid of herself even though she saw that figure standing in front of her. Who is this figure in front of her? Why did that figure seem so cold and scared Grace? In fact, in terms of the man's face in front of her, he barely had a gap. He was an extraordinarily handsome figure, which even all women would ask to be treated as queen by that figure.

The man came closer, and then he held out his hand. He smiled warmly at Grace with his warm gaze. Even so, it didn't make Grace feel familiar or safe in front of this man.

"I'm Nicholas Kyle," the man answered firmly.

Grace was hit by a hammer when she heard Nick's answer. She never thought that the figure who had destroyed her by raping her so violently was the person in front of her. Grace seemed to be inching backward, and she was so wary she seemed reluctant to be touched by Nicholas.

Nicholas seemed pensive for a moment to see what had happened to Grace. He knew that even if he had had surgery, who would poorly judge him in Grace's eyes. The point is Grace is traumatized by her treatment, nothing more.

"Grace, I beg you. Don't misunderstand what happened that night..." Nicholas said, trying to reassure Grace. "I didn't mean to hurt you, really. It's just that I didn't know you were a virgin. And more than that, I barely had any experience gently making love. To me, it was a natural thing, and—"

"That's enough, Mr. Kyle. I've been trying not to remember anything awful for the past few days I was almost down. And you've come up with that subject again. So I hope you're out of my sight soon. Because seeing you in front of me really is makes me feel very sad."

Grace then turned her head away, but Nicholas did not remain silent. Instead, he approached Grace and squeezed Grace until she was cornered and couldn't resist. Nicholas then kissed Grace's neck, and she smiled back at him.

"Listen to me, Grace. There are things that often happen between men and women. Don't hate the opposite sex too much, it could be that the person you hate will become someone you will love to death one day. , you can hate me now. But later, I can make sure that you will never be able to live without me even in the span of your breath."

Grace looked more and more emotional. She turned her face away because she didn't want to see Nicholas's face.

"I hope it's only in a dream," Grace snapped. Nicholas chuckled at Grace's words. How could Grace say it only in a dream if Grace was now working at his house?

"Want to bet?" asked Nicholas. But Grace didn't seem to care at all. "Well, Miss Hester. This morning I want to have a special breakfast. As one of the employees in my house, especially you are in charge of taking care of me. So, please prepare a special breakfast for me," Nicholas finally ordered after looking at the watch that wrapped nicely around his wrist. "And remember, I hate artificial sweeteners the most. So make every effort to get sweetness naturally. Or I'll get it from your lips, Miss Hester."

Nicholas went straight into the house, causing Grace to throw the dirt she was clenching into her fist. She was annoyed with the figure named Nicholas Kyle. And why of all places did she have to be stranded and work here? A place in the middle of nowhere that made her feel like her life was in hell.

"Oh my God, Grace! You have to stay sane. Or if you need to put poison on that one devil's breakfast menu. I'm sure, he will die without exception. Until all his internal organs rot and crumble to perfection!" annoyed Grace while grumbling.

Nicholas just smiled, hearing Grace's words behind the door. Then his eyes darkened because his work was now waiting.

"The businessman from India is arriving in two hours, Nick. What should we do about it?" Sean asked. Who greeted Nick from inside.

Nicholas climbed the stairs quickly to his study, then he smirked.

At 10:45 a.m., there will be news that will shock the world. And it concerns the Indian businessman," Nicholas said.

He sat nicely in his oversized chair, and then he turned on the TV. Looking at the TV with his chin on, then he took the cigarette in front of him and took a sip of it deliciously.

Sean looked to see the watch on his wrist, and soon it was 10:45. What do you think his cousin is planning now?

"Three… two… one," Sean said.

An online news coverage instantly displays trending news. Where their background is a private plane that exploded. Sean immediately turned to Nicholas, who even looked very calm as he watched the information on the TV.

"An Indian businessman who wanted to work with one of the leading businessmen in this country had an accident. The private plane he was traveling on had exploded in the air. It is confirmed that the Indian businessman and his assistant died in the accident. Until now, the cause of the private plane is still being investigated. suddenly explode even when they're in the sky."

"Nick—"

"Didn't Marvin do a very good job, Sean?" said Nicholas looking very proud.

"But what will we gain from the death of the Indian businessman? Weren't all the important documents on the plane?"

"You're wrong, Sean. All that was on the plane was a copy. All the important documents were in Marvin's hands. He had sent a trusted confidant to infiltrate one of the Indian businessmen's employees. Then he put a bomb in the plane. he has sacrificed his life, make sure if his family can find happiness and provide material sufficiency until the end of his life."

"Fine, Nick! I'll do everything according to your orders. But why didn't you tell me this? I don't know anything about your job, Nick," repeated Sean, apparently protesting. Nicholas looked at Sean then he raised an eyebrow.

"Because the result of this work is your birthday gift from me," Nicholas answered firmly. Sean's eyes looked stunned to hear the words from Nicholas, and then he hugged his cousin's body affectionately.

"Really? You even remember my birthday? Oh my God, how happy I am for that, really!" Sean's spirit.
