Chapter 174 - Plotting Against Nathaira (1/2)
Ch-173
”Jessica left the country, right?” Cedric asked suddenly.
”Indeed, she is changed,” Edward said.
”Wait… Valene's sister… she is still in jail, right?” Cedric asked.
”Yeah… but… I don't think she would be any help. She is stupid,” Edward said.
”Give me your phone,” Cedric asked all of a sudden.
”It's switched off. No battery,” Edward said with a frown.
Cedric turned on his phone and saw the battery was half full. He showed it to Edward. Edward felt something amiss. Cedric checked his phone and found a program was installed on his phone. While doing that Nathaira forgot to turn on the phone. Cedric knew this because Nathaira played the same trick on his phone.
Edward was stunned at the new finding. Edward was about to lose his temper. Cedric showed his palm asking him to stop talking.
”I want to go on a date with Nathaira tonight. If you disturb it… it won't be good,” Cedric said.
”What about Eleanor?” Edward asked going along with the flow.
”You just need to do your work rather than worrying about her,” Cedric said.
He was indirectly implying he to first finish the task and he will take care of it. While… on the surface it was looking like they both were having a rift.
Both Edward and Cedric shared a smirk with each other.
”Do you have a power bank?” Cedric asked all of a sudden.
”I saw your phone is fully charged. Why do you need it?” Edward asked.
”My stupid sister… she did something to it. It needs to be charged.” Cedric said.
”Hmm… It should be in my car,” he said.
”Drop me in my apartment. I want to sleep,” Cedric said.
”Didn't you say you want to go for a date with Nathaira?” Edward asked.
”I will tell her. She will come and wake me up at that time.” Cedric said.
”Whatever. I am done eating,” Edward said.
”Wait for me. I am still hungry,” Cedric said.
They finished their food and left. Edward opened his work tablet PC and handed it to Cedric.
Cedric noted down the things they need to do and gave it to Edward to read. Edward gave a thumbs up to Cedric. He was happy that Cedric was finally ending the chapter of Nathaira.
He wished him happiness but also… in the end Nathaira was still his sister. He hoped her punishment would be lighter. He also hoped she would change her ways of acting and thinking. But… who was he to hope. It's all her wish in the end.
After dropping Cedric in his apartment. Edward went to his house. He saw Nathaira sitting in the hall. Taking out his phone, he placed it on the coffee table. Now… his task was to ruin his phone.
He called a maid and asked her to bring him water. Generally, it was the senior maid who serves him all the time. But to his luck, a young maid brought him water. The old maid would place the water glass on the table before standing aside. But this maid was trying to hand him the glass. Edward was about to pick the phone but the maid suddenly felt a tug on her skirt and slipped. The water glass dropped on his phone. His phone was soaked in water which made him pissed off.
”Can't you see!?” he shouted, making the maid flinch at his words.
His phone 'turned off' instantly. ”Shit,” he cursed out loud.
”Where is Andria?” he asked. Anger was evident in his voice.
”She is in the kitchen.” the maid said meekly.
”Call her,” his voice said he was really pissed.
The maid ran away instantly to find Andria. Andria returned there feeling scared.
”Why is she the one who is serving me? Didn't I say only you should serve me?” he asked.
”She offered herself to serve you, Sir,” she said.
”Since you both can't do the work properly I need to change people,” Edward said feeling frustrated.
”Sir, I made a mistake. I won't repeat it again,” Andria said as tears threatened to fall from her eyes.
”I don't need two people to serve me,” he said.
”Brother, just send that one who spoiled your phone. Leave Andria,” Nathaira said.
