Abby was humiliated and that was the real reason she was talking to Nolan that way.Seeing her own father kneeling in front of Nolan made her feel extremely humiliated.Nolan was someone she had humiliated many times before. Someone she had always seen as a poor man, someone she had always believed was far inferior to her but now that same person was standing proudly while her father was kneeling before him.That feeling made her heart burn with anger and she could not accept it. She could not accept that someone she once looked down on was now above her. So she poured all her anger on Nolan.At this point, Nolan felt like he had heard enough. He was already tired of all the things Abby was saying to him.He looked at her calmly before speaking. “You are right,” he said slowly. “Saving the companies of these men is not a big deal for me. In fact, all I need to do is make one phone call and their problem will be solved.”He paused for a moment. “But I will still stand by the same ques

Abby could not hold herself together anymore and tears began to fall from her eyes. She tried to stop herself from crying, but she simply could not hold back the tears. Her shoulders trembled slightly as the tears rolled down her cheeks. She felt extremely humiliated. She felt like her entire world had collapsed and could not believe that after everything she had done to Nolan, everything had ended like this.She had insulted him, she had mocked him, she had called him a poor loser many times and had always treated him like he was beneath her but now she was the one kneeling and was the one bowing her head in front of him. She felt devastated and felt completely broken.When the men saw that the two stubborn children had finally gotten on their knees, they all felt relieved. Many of them released the breath they had been holding because at least now there was hope that their companies could still be saved. Nolan stood quietly in front of them.Truthfully, Nolan was not the kind of per

They were scared of who Nolan really was as they did not understand him. They did not know how powerful he truly was, they did not know how they had offended someone like him and they did not understand why he had caused such a huge destruction in their lives.Meanwhile, Lilian’s father stood quietly at a corner. He watched everything that was happening and said nothing. He only continued to wallow in his own thoughts, his own regret and his own fear.It was not as if Nolan had not seen Lilian’s father earlier. He had seen him but Nolan had nothing to say to him because there was no relationship between them so there was nothing to talk about.Without Lilian, they were complete strangers so Nolan had simply ignored him. On his way back, Nolan thought about Lilian and her father and after thinking for a while, he picked up his phone and called Cherry’s dad.When the call connected, Nolan spoke calmly.“Everything that happened today must remain between us,” Nolan said. “You and Mr. Dam

He had called Elizabeth the previous day while he was on his way back from the estate. He had told her about his plans. He wanted to help the companies that had gone bankrupt.But he was not planning to just help them for free. He wanted to take a bigger percentage of their companies. He had asked Elizabeth for her opinion.At that time, she told him she would speak to some people in the office about it. But he did not expect her to come all the way to his apartment just to discuss it.“Also, Young Master,” Elizabeth said as she crossed her legs and leaned back slightly, “I think the best thing to do is to take over all their companies completely.”“You want me to take over all their companies?” Nolan asked in shock. That was not what he had in mind. He only planned to take a larger share. Not everything.“Yes,” Elizabeth said calmly. “That is the best way. You will have full control over them. It will look like the companies are still theirs, but in reality, they will not own anythin

“Really? Are you sure?” Cherry asked immediately. Her face lit up with excitement. She did not even try to hide it.“But please,” Nolan added quickly. “I want to beg you for something. Can you please stop bringing up what happened in my apartment that day? Please, don’t mention it again. I’m actually pleading with you.”Cherry did not say anything. Instead, she started to blush. Her cheeks slowly turned red. Nolan noticed it immediately. He could not help but look at her. The way she was blushing made her look very pretty, very soft and very different from the arrogant girl he knew. She was such a beautiful girl. Anyone would notice it and anyone would be drawn to her.But the moment Nolan thought about her behavior… her attitude… and the way she acted… he immediately pushed those thoughts away. He just wanted to stay away from her.“We can go directly from here,” Cherry said. “You don’t have to go back to your dorm.”“But I think I have to dress up,” Nolan replied. “I don’t think wha
