Natasha’s POV
There was a knock on the door. Aunt said anxiously, “Miss, something is wrong. Edmend is there.”
“Call the doctor Edgar and ask him to bring some nutritious fluid when he comes.”
The housekeeping aunt did it in a hurry.
In the next room, Bran, who heard the noise, also came out.
We came to the basement and saw the servants surrounding the Edmend, but no one dared to go forward.
Bran walked over and tried to untie him.
“Take a break. Bran, come here too. Let him breathe.”
Soon, Dr Edgar arrived
Dr Edgar gave Edmend an infusion.
After a while, Edmend woke up,.
He said with difficulty, “Natashsa, you bitch. You… You have to… You die.”
“If you don’t quit gambling, all of us will die miserably.”
Edmend breathed heavily, “you…”
I bent over.
“Brother, are you hungry? I have prepared a gift for you.”
“Bah,” said Edmend,
I asked the aunt not far away, “is dinner ready?”
“Yes, my lady.”
I said, “prepare one for me.”
The maid did as she was told.
I walked up to Bran and touched his head. “Bran, go inside and have dinner. Don’t wait for me.”
After Bran left with his men, the housekeeper brought the dinner to them.
The dinner was very sumptuous. Although each dish was only a little full, the table was still full.
With his eyes fixed on the food, Edmend leaned forward in a hurry and said, “untie me quickly. I’m starving to death.”
“Don’t worry. I’ll give you a gift later.”
I asked the maid to leave. I picked up the chopsticks and began to eat.
Edmend licked his dry and pale lips and said painfully, “Natashsa, give me.”
I I picked up a chicken and put it into my mouth.
“Wow, brother, the chicken is tender and fragrant. It’s delicious. It should be your favorite taste.”
Edmend was in pain. He was so hungry that he couldn’t even swallow his saliva. “Natasha, just take a bite. You don’t want your brother to starve to death, do you?”
I glanced at him. “Don’t worry. You are on a drip. You won’t die.”
“You…” Edmend was so angry that he couldn’t take his eyes off the food.
I ateup all the dishes on the table in front of Edmend.
Being unable to enjoy the delicious food, Edmend felt like weeping but had no tears. “Natashsa, what the hell do you want to do?”
Natasha looked sideways and smiled, “I want you to beg me. Brother, if you beg me, I will give you something to eat.”
“I beg you,” Edmend said without hesitation, “Natasha, please, give me some food.”
This was the reason why he went to ask Winson for help in his previous life when he knew that Winson had hurt the family.
There was only a cake left on the table.
I threw it on the ground, stepped on it and picked it up. I walked to him and said, “this is the gift I prepared for you. Do you want me to feed you?”
Edmend’s eyes turned red with anger. “Natashsa, are you going too far?”
“It seems that you are still not hungry. Then stop eating and continue to be hungry.”
Edmend gritted his teeth and said, “we are the same mother. Why do you humiliate me like this?”
Humiliation?
I sneered, “that day, you said that I was trampling on your dignity. My dear brother, you see clearly, I am telling you what is real trampling on dignity!”
“You… You…” Edmend was furious
I looked him up and down, but his tone was very disgusting. “Have you looked in the mirror recently? Do you still know yourself now?”
Edmend looked up.
I turned around and sat next to Edmend. Lowering my head, I tore a piece of the dirty cake and put it into my mouth to chew slowly.
Seeing this scene, Edmend was stunned.
“You can’t eat this.”
Edmend didn’t know it at all. In the past, I even had an extravagant hope to eat such food.
“Although it has been stepped on, it is still food. As long as someone needs it, it is still valuable no matter how dirty it is. Don’t you think it is like you now?”
“Brother, when people are arrogant, they don’t have dignity at all. You dare to mention dignity to me now because you know that I won’t kill you. But what if you fall into the hands of others one day?”
The next day, I received a call.
Jack asked me out for dinner.
This… I have to face it.
I came to the casino myself.
After being notified, I was quickly brought to Jack’s front
Jack still looked dandiacal, leaning against the back of the sofa. “Natashsa, see you again.”
As he spoke, he looked in the direction of the door and said, “today, Winson won’t be your guardian angel?
I said unhappily, “my business has nothing to do with him.”
“Really?”
“But I think Winson cares about you very much.”
“You don’t even know him. How can you be so sure that he cares about me?”
Jack rolled his eyes.
He gestured for his men to go out. There are only me and him left in the room.
I have to step back vigilantly.
But Jack quickly grabbed my shoulders and fixed me in front of him.
“You just came here. Do you know how much I miss you?”
I moved sideways and took two steps back, successfully maintaining a distance of two steps from Jack.
“Jack, we are just friends. I can do anything for you to express my gratitude, but we are just friends.”
“What? You don’t like me?” Jack stepped forward.
Jack stood still and said arrogantly, “there is no woman who doesn’t submit to me. You…”
“I’m an exception,” I walked up to him, looked up at him and interrupted him
“Other women, even if they kneel in front of you and call you father, it has nothing to do with me. Jack, are you sure you want to continue to talk to me like this?”
Jack couldn’t help laughing mischievously, “interesting!”
Jack said in a frivolous voice, “Okay, I’ll change my condition. In this year, you should at least have a meal with me every week. ”
Dinner?
Jack said unhappily, “what’s wrong? It’s hard for you to have dinner. It seems that the person who is not sincere is Natashsa.”
“Just eating?”
With a sly look on his face, Jack said, “or what? It’s time for dinner. Let’s start the first meal from today on.”
Jack walked to the door and opened it. He said to the person at the door, “ask someone to prepare a hearty meal and bring it in. I want to go with Natashsa…”
“I’m not eating here.”
Jack asked, “what? Are you afraid that I will poison the food?”
“I… it’s a little noisy here.”
Jack sneered, “then let’s go out to eat.”
We went out of the casino together, and Jack followed me into my car.
The place for dinner was chosen by Jack, not far from the casino.
The food was also ordered by Jack.
While eating, Jack asked, “do you mind if I ask you a question?”
Jack asked, “why did you break off the engagement with Winson?”
“Of course.”
Jack raised his eyebrows, “what do you mind?”
“I mind your question. It’s my private affair. I don’t want to talk about it with anyone.”
Jack smiled wickedly.
Winson had destroyed five of his casinos in two days.
No matter what the reason was, he was determined to take away the woman who was cared so much by Winson!
