Chapter 379 How Dare He
Gussie had studied abroad for several years. The coffee she had made tasted very aromatic.
Nathan saw how wary she was. He wondered warily, “She can’t spit in the coffee, can she?”
“Walden and Civil Disobedience? That’s a dangerous way of thinking…” Nathan laughed lightly as he picked up a
book on the desk, accosting.
Gussie, however, held her chin up and pouted gently in a cute way, ignoring Nathan’s accost.
Nathan asked, “What’s on your mind?”
Gussie then said, “I’m wondering if you are asking me to go to practice is as malicious as asking me to play
badminton with you!”
“Ahem, no way. I really can’t play badminton.” Nathan explained.
Gussie looked at her in disbelief. Then she carefully tugged at her skirt and folded her beautiful legs in a different
direction.
The atmosphere was awkward when Nathan received a phone call from Wendy.
Nathan thanked Wendy sincerely for helping him to defuse the awkwardness. He hurriedly answered the call.
“Ms. Wendy, what can I do for you?” Nathan said with a smile, speaking to Wendy with increasing ease.
Wendy was also in a good mood and said, “Our industry chain has fully broken through Porter Group alliance’s
blockade and is now starting a major counter–attack Just now, I’ve received several calls from people who have
come to me to find out what’s going on. They wanted to know, by the way, whether I have fifty billion dollars or
not.”
Nathan said, “Hmm, and then?”
Wendy said, “I got some death threats too.”
Nathan said, “Don’t pay any attention to them. Just do your own thing. I’ll keep you safe. They’ll have to deal with
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtme first before they touch you!”
The death of James showed the men that it was not enough to solve Wendy, but Nathan was the big boss.
Even if they did kill Wendy, no one would be able to withstand Nathan’s insane revenge.
James, who lived in the military compound, had been killed and decapitated. So where else in the world was safe?
Nathan talked to Wendy for a while and then hung up the phone.
“It’s a dangerous time these days. You need to be careful too.” Nathan said after he put the phone down, “But
you’re also very trustworthy, turning down so many temptations.”
Gussie asked in surprise, “You knew all about it?”
She was the secretary of Poly Capital, so naturally, she was in a position of power. The conspirators had sent people
to contact her, offering generous terms. But she had refused them all.
She always believed that Poly Capital would give her room for advancement and that she could compete with the
Reagan family with her efforts!
Nathan said calmly, “I don’t go to the company much, but I know everything big and small. I even know a lot of
people are betraying the company’s interests.”
Gussie said, “Well, why don’t you find these people and fire them all?”
“Fire them?”
“That would be too easy on them!”
“The information they gave away was all leaked by me, just to mislead Natasha.”
“When this business war is over, I’ll get them imprisoned for a few years.”
Nathan said with a sneer. There was no room for mercy for traitors and they would be able to make use of traitors.
Gussie realized how sinister Nathan was as a capitalist. It was like torturing a man’s mind….
Nathan finished his coffee and said with a smile, “Ms. Reagan, can I have a refill?”
Gussie glared at him and walked over to take the coffee cup. Then she went to refill it for him.
“In the future, you need to be less timid. Be tougher, be bolder and don’t always be a wimp.” Nathan took the
refilled cup of coffee and took a sip, admonishing.
“I’d like to… but I’m always less confident than those guys.” Gussie sighed.
“What are you afraid of? I’m your boss, I’m supporting you!” Nathan said unhappily.
Gussie said with gratitude, “Thanks, I’m always being bullied and always giving you trouble.”
Nathan said, “Yeah, well, I’ve helped you out so many times. You need to change yourself. I’ll take you to practice
martial arts and hopefully make you more courageous.”
Gussie nodded seriously and then said, “Do I need to prepare anything for training with you? What do I need to
wear?”
Nathan rolled his eyes after hearing the silly words and said, “Sportswear, of course. Do you want to practice in
stockings and heels? I wouldn’t mind feasting my eyes. But I’m afraid you can’t.”
Gussie blushed and felt that her question was silly.
She found that she was overwhelmed at every turn in front of Nathan. Her intelligence was completely useless.
“How should I pay back…” Gussie sighed slightly sadly, feeling that she owed too many favors.
“Pay me with your breasts! I don’t mind.” Nathan slapped his chest with bravado.
Gussie was instantly furious. Out of anger, she simply puffed out her chest and said angrily, “You joke every day. If
you’ve got the guts, come and touch it!”
Nathan swallowed and trembled as he reached out his hand.
When Gussie saw that he dared to reach out, she was so stunned. Her body stiffened on the spot, and she didn’t
move.
“Ta–da.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNathan’s hand landed on the swollen shirt.
Then they faced each other, wide–eyed.
“Ahhhh, pervert, get out!” Gussie suddenly stood up in a flash and gave Nathan a violent shove, nearly causing him
to stumble.
Before Nathan could react, Gussie shoved him again, pushing him to the door.
After five or six pushes, Nathan was pushed straight out the door by Gussie.
“Hey, hey, hey, don’t be angry. You asked me to touch you… If you don’t like it, I apologize!” Nathan said hurriedly.
“Get out of here!” Gussie said and blushed. She slammed the door shut with a bang.
Nathan stretched his hands helplessly and thought, “Oh my! She was the one who just told me to touch her chest.
But I touched her and she got mad. It is hard to read women!”
What made him even more upset was that there were still two layers of clothing over her chest. Why was she so
angry?
Gussie leaned against the door, panting heavily, her face blushing. She was so angry that he had taken her words
seriously and he dared to touch her…
Hearing the distant footsteps outside the door, Gussie felt slightly lost in her mood.
Nathan was nice. She was sure that she liked him. But the reason told her not to indulge in this feeling. She should
keep her distance from him, as she had said before.
After the footsteps faded, Gussie calmed down slightly. She looked out through the peephole, but it was dark
outside.
“He’s not angry, is he?” Gussie thought.
So, she opened the door.
Then, she regretted it.
Because she saw Nathan looking at her with one hand pressed against the peephole, grinning.
