Chapter 184
“Are you trying to tell me to act like a b*tch?” Kate pursed her lips and asked.
“It doesn’t matter what you’re acting like as long as you achieve your goal. If Nathan cares to find out why you’re
upset, or why you’re avoiding him, that means he has feelings for you. If he doesn’t make a move, you could forget
about him because he has no feelings for you at all.” Upon hearing the last few words, Kate felt like she had lost the
glimmer of hope she once had.
“I don’t think I can do that. Furthermore, he is still in a love bubble with Melanie, so what makes you so sure that
he’ll think of me?”
“Well, you’ll never know if you never try. Maybe he is just being insensitive for now. When you finally have him at
your mercy, you could do whatever you want to him, but you must remember to hang in there and treat him like a
stranger for the time being.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Alright!” Kate nodded.
“You could even find a decent man to provoke him, but you mustn’t find someone like the man you met in the bar
the last time. If you do that, you will not only fail to provoke Nathan, but also make yourself look cheap,” Olivia then
added.
“Alright, I know what to do. How do I look now? Do I look obvious that I’ve cried?” Kate took a deep breath and
asked.
“Still good, but your eyes are still a little red.” Olivia then proceeded to fix her makeup. “There you go. Now you
look much better. Let’s go. You’ve been here long enough, and people are going to know you cried here if you don’t
get out there soon.”
“Let them know then!”
“That’d be embarrassing!”
“They didn’t see what was going on here anyway. So, just tell them I got drunk or something.”
“I doubt they’re even going to ask. Besides, I bet no one else knows how long you’ve been gone.” Olivia looked
askance at her while Kate was simply too fed up to say anything in response. Soon, Kate returned to the table,
catching Nathan’s eyes as he jokingly said, “You’ve been throwing up forever. Did you puke your guts out?”
Instinctively, Kate wanted to talk back, but soon recalled Olivia’s words and looked away to ignore him. Meanwhile,
Nathan only stared at her in confusion. “Hey, what’s wrong with you? You’ve never stayed quiet when someone
teases you. I must say I’m really not used to that.” Then, he tried pulling Kate’s sleeves to get her to respond. “Hey,
I’m talking to you.”
Soon, Kate turned around and glared at him with a serious expression. “I only talk back to humans. That’s why I
ignore you.” Upon hearing that, Nathan continued her sentence in her mind. You’re obviously not a human! When
he finally caught on to what she meant, he knitted his brows and retorted, “What’s wrong with you? Did you get up
on the wrong side of the bed?” However, Kate only looked away and turned a deaf ear to his words.
As Melanie noticed Nathan’s relentless attitude toward Kate, she quickly pulled him closer and said, “Show some
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmanners. After all, Katie is still a lady.”
Frustrated, Nathan raised his voice at Melanie, “If she talks to you like that, do you think I’d stand by and do
nothing? Didn’t you hear what she just said?”
Not long after, Kate felt suffocated. She could barely breathe as if someone had stabbed her with a blade and
turned the cold steel around to torment her. A few moments later, she let out a sigh and turned her attention to
Olivia. “Olivia, I want to make a move right now.”
“Sure, I’ll see you off.”
“It’s okay. There are still guests here. Attend to them, I can take care of myself.”
Kate then placed her hands on Olivia’s shoulders and sat her down before she informed everyone else but Nathan
and Melanie that she was going to leave. As her figure slowly disappeared from sight, Nathan was frustrated and
baffled. What did I do to deserve that? I was just asking how she felt after she went missing for so long, yet all I got
in return was such a terrible attitude. Just then, Melanie leaned forward and seized Nathan’s arm, silently meeting
his gaze with a smile.
