Chapter 184 I Only Talk Back to Humans
“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.”
“Alright!” Kate nodded.

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 manners. After all, Katie is still a lady.”

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.
