“I have to go,” Beatrice said to Darwin, he nodded at her and kissed her on her lips before she walked away. Darwin watched her, and when she was already gone from his eyesight, he returned his gaze to Eille, who was now looking at him.
“Your friend really cares for you,” Darwin said. Eille rolled her eye and didn’t talk to him. “She ordered me not to hurt you.” He added, and a smile on his lips formed.
“Do I look like I can hurt someone?”
“Let me go,” Eille said. Darwin shook his head.
“Why would I?” he asked.
“Because I will not tell Nate what I know, I wouldn’t tell anyone the information I knew. Just let me go.” Eille said so Darwin laughed at her.
“And how will you guarantee you will not tell Nate what you know?” He asked. Eille’s face became serious as she looked at him.
“Because I didn’t tell Beatrice why her sister died,” Eille said seriously, which made Darwin look at her with a playful smile on his lips.
“Should I be grateful for what you did?” Darwin asked. Eille still needs to answer him. “You really should not tell her what you know because once you tell her everything you know, I am sure she will kill you and hate you till death for not telling her the truth,” Darwin said.
“Why are you doing this? I already followed you last time, didn’t I?” she asked, so Darwin just laughed at her and turned his back on her.
“The last time you followed me was when you betrayed me, Eille,” Darwin said coldly, making Eille goosebumps. Eille watches Darwin walk away as she remembers how she betrayed Darwin last time.
Eille betrayed Darwin the last time they worked together when Eille told the Vougch clan alpha that Darwin and Nate would start an alliance in business to have a good relationship and secretly have a connection with the White clan so Darwin would be the second’s most influential Alpha in town, but that didn’t happen when the Vougch clan interfere with their plan and tell to Nate that the business that they supposed to worked out is one of Darwin’s underground business. Nate doesn’t do such a thing, so Nate cancels the business alliance. But Darwin didn’t stop there when he offered Nate a business again, last time when Nate was already married to Beatrice. However, Nate still refuses to accept the industry again, which makes Darwin obsessed with getting the second rank of ‘Town’s most influential,’ not only that, but he is also seeking Nate’s thrown, which he and Beatrice working out now.
On the other hand, Beatrice got out of her car when she arrived at the venue for their dinner, Nate invited her to have dinner with him, which she accepted and took as an opportunity to poison Nate today.
When she entered the venue, she started to look for Nate and saw that he was already there at the table where he reserved for them, waiting for her. Beatrice took a deep breath before she walked closer to Nate.
When Nate felt her presence, he turned his head to see his wife and gave her a smile as she approached him.
” Did you wait so long?” Beatrice asked as she immediately sat before him, Nate shook his head in answer.
“You came just in time,” Nate said, looking at the menu he held again.
“What do you want to eat?” He asked his wife.
“Anything.” She answered him shortly, so Nate looked at her for a second before gazing back at the menu.
“There is no ‘Anything’ here on the menu,” Nate said, so Beatrice rolled her eyes, picked the menu to her side, and then chose the food she wanted.
“A steak and a pasta.” She said and put down the menu again, now she was watching her picking food for himself, as she watched him, Beatrice was thinking of how she will put poison on his food, she knew Nate. He is not that dumb to not smell his food, for sure, Nate will smell his food before he eats it. Beatrice watched Nate call the waiter and order their food, soon as Nate was done, he looked at her, and she averted her gaze fast. Nate laughed a little as he noticed how she averted her gaze.
“This is the first time we will have a dinner date like this,” Nate said, so Beatrice looked at him.
“Why don’t you invite your sister?” she asked, which made Nate laugh.
“Why would I invite her? Is she my wife?” He asked, so Beatrice just looked at him. “I just want to have time for you even though I am busy with my businesses, and sometimes I don’t have a chance to get home because of meetings and stuff,” Nate said, which made Beatrice’s heart race fast.
“You know, one person told me that I should make time for my wife or else my wife will find another guy who give her time,” Nate said. Beatrice laughed as she heard him saying those words.
“Why would I even find a guy who has time for me when in the first place, I don’t even want to give my full time and attention to anyone?” she said, Nate was suddenly stunned by what she said.
“I am more focused on living my own life than living with a man,” Beatrice added. Nate smiled at her a little.
“I would like to ask a question, if you don’t mind,” Nate said as he looked into her eyes.
“Have you ever fallen in love with someone?” Nate said, so Beatrice suddenly stopped and thought about how she fell in love with Darwin. A smile formed on her lips as she remembered the first time she met Darwin.
“Yeah,” Beatrice answered.
“What Do you feel every time you see that person?” Nate asked, A smile on Beatrice’s lips widened as she remembered how she felt the first time she saw Darwin.
“Well, I am pleased every time I am around him and timid every time he speaks to me,” Beatrice said and looked at him. “You know, like a teenager thing.” She added, which made Nate laugh.
“Well, I guess what you feel for the person you are thinking right now is not love; it’s just puppy love,” Nate said, which made Beatrice’s smile fade as he said those words.
“Why would this man tell me that?” Beatrice asked herself, annoyed.
“Because if you really love the person, you can’t express or explain how you feel every time you see him or you’re around him,” Nate added that their order had just arrived at this point, and the waiter served me to their table. Beatrice looked at Nate disgustingly until the waiter left them alone.
“Let’s eat?” Nate asked her, so Beatrice returned to her senses and remembered that she didn’t put the poison on his plate. She watches him start eating his food while thinking of how she will put the poison in Nate’s food.
Nate looked at her, so she also started eating her food slowly.
“Nate Vowell?” They both turn their attention to the one called Nate, and Beatrice sees that the man who called the name ‘Nate’ is Quiver, the Alpha of the Vougch Clan.
