One Night Stand With That Beggar

Nelson’s heart throbbed, yet he held down that painful feeling and smiled.

“You’ll definitely give us your blessing because Naomi and I are truly in love!”

Amos frowned. As Nelson finished speaking, he turned around and left!

Originally, the winner of the night was supposed to be Inchee Group. Everyone was already certain about that! All the other bidders were just planning to have fun.

However, to everyone’s surprise, Valiant East had arrived as well.

This time, the other bidders didn’t even bother to join in anymore. It was impossible for them to defeat both Inchee Company and Valiant East.

It was going to be an exciting night for sure!

However, to their surprise, after the bidding started, Inchee Group only offered their bid price once, and that was the minimum bid.

After that, it was Valiant East that was dominating the auction. Inchee Group wasn’t even trying to raise their bid!

The crowd began to whisper in low voices, “Pfft, who said that Inchee Group is a strong company? Someone even told me that they came back from abroad, and they’re far more stronger than they seem. Why did they give up even before the fight even started?”

“Who knows? I heard the news from others too!”

“From the looks of it, Valiant East is still the strongest company. Rosaville City is still controlled by the Granger family…”

Just as everyone was discussing intensely, Richard looked at Nelson in concern.

“Mr. Luther, are we really not increasing our bid?”

Nelson shook his head. “No!”

Exasperated, Richard thought to himself, “If you do not want to raise the bid, then why are we even here?”

“However, Miss Monique is in Rosaville City. Aren’t you afraid that she’ll look for you?”

Although Nelson had already made up his mind, upon hearing Monique’s name, he still frowned.

“It’s okay. I’ll bear the responsibility.”

Richard sighed, “Alright then.”

After that, there was no doubt that Valiant East would win the bid!

The enthusiastic crowd had quieted down.

“Is this the result? If I had known earlier that there wouldn’t be a surprise ending, I wouldn’t have attended!”

“That’s right! Inchee Group is just nothing after all. I think I’d better sell off my shares! It’s better to support Valiant East!”

After everyone left, Nelson and Amos left their seats slowly.

They met at the exit.

Amos was a little surprised as he said, “You didn’t even try going up against our budding. It seems that I have overestimated you!”

Nelson smiled and said, “Mr. Granger, Naomi told me that we should respect our elders. Furthermore, Valiant East is indeed very powerful, so I’m just protecting myself.”

Amos snorted. “I’ve told you, no matter what you do, I will not agree to let the both of you be together! Don’t even think that Naomi will stand on your side after she sees the news. It’s useless! I’ve already bought off the media. Not a single news about today’s bidding will be reported!”

“It doesn’t matter.” Nelson said with a smile. “Regardless of whether you agree or not, I have done what I should do.”

It was only after Nelson left that Clint finally spoke.

“Mr. Granger, this man, Nelson Luther, is indeed quite smart. He seems to be a promising talent!”

Amos snorted and said, “So what? I don’t like him at all!”

Clint was rendered speechless.

“According to our investigation, he doesn’t seem like a bad person. Do you really doubt his talent and abilities, or is it because he is pursuing Miss Naomi? I’ve heard that every father treats their son-in-law like an enemy, so is this why…”

“Shut up!” Amos stopped Clint. “What kind of logic is that?”

Clint was dumbfounded yet again.

Didn’t his theory make sense?

…

On Nelson’s side, as expected, he received a call from Monique as soon as he got in the car.

Monique was no longer as emotional as she was the day before. Instead, she seemed normal.

“Nelson, I asked you to come over to Rosaville City to help me in the company’s business! Yes, you are indeed the president of Inchee Group, but everything belongs to me! Why didn’t you tell me in advance about this rash decision of yours? The company has been preparing for this project for a long time. Who gave you the permission to do so?”

Even Richard could hear Monique’s loud roar through the phone.

He couldn’t help but cover his ears and sit further away.

Nelson remained calm as he said, “This time, I’ve made my own personal decision. I will not deny that. As for all the losses the company will suffer, I will compensate for it personally.”

Monique snorted, “Compensate for it personally? You’ve only been the president for a few years. How rich do you think you are? You only have a few million dollars at most! Are you sure you want to do this?”

“I’m sure!” Nelson nodded. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up.”

Monique’s voice sounded again, “I’m warning you. According to our previous agreement, you only have two months left. If you cannot help me get what I want, I will not let you get away with this!”

“Alright!” Nelson hung up on the call immediately after he finished speaking.

Richard looked at him worriedly, saying, “What should we do? Have we gone too far this time?”

“It’s fine!” Nelson shook his head. “Drop me off in front. I want to be alone for a while.”

Richard looked around and asked, “Isn’t Valiant East nearby? What do you want to do? Do you think I have no idea that Miss Monique…”

“Richard!” Nelson cut him off. “Don’t talk nonsense!”

Richard tried to explain, “You clearly know whether I’m talking nonsense or not. Do you still remember that senior of ours? Didn’t he get together with Miss Monique too? After he became successful, he cut ties with the company, and he’s now travelling around the world with his loved one! In contrast, there was another senior who didn’t want to please her no matter what. In the end, I didn’t even get to see him one last time…”

“Stop talking! Stop the car right now!”

The car pulled over at the side of the road. Nelson opened the door and got out of the car.

After taking a few steps, he arrived at the entrance of Valiant East. It was about three o’clock in the afternoon. Nelson stood there and looked up at the high-rise building in front of him.

Valiant East had always been an enormous building ever since he was a child. Back then, his mother used to tell him that as long as he entered the Granger family, the building would belong to him in the future!

The building was still as tall as ever, yet it had not belonged to him yet.All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

He had no idea which floor Naomi was on, or which window she was sitting next to.

After he thought about it for a long time, he suddenly felt that he was being a little silly! Smiling, he looked down and went to a coffee shop nearby.

He bought himself a cup of coffee. As soon as he sat down, Naomi’s voice sounded behind him.

“Nelson? Why are you here?”

She had a cup of coffee in her hand as well, “I came down here to buy a coffee. Wow, is this destiny?”

Nelson nodded, “Yes, it must be destiny.”

“I think so too. Look, destiny brought us together when we were young. Now, it has once again brought us together again after so many years!”

Nelson was stunned for a moment. Was their encounter really destiny?

“By the way, aren’t you supposed to be at your company? Aren’t you working today?” Naomi asked.

Nelson answered, “I am! However, I was too tired of working, so I came here for a short walk. I guess you’re right, we’re really destined to be together!”
