However, Nigel immediately refused. “No, you can’t come over. I’m busy lately and I don’t have time to play games with you.”
“Uncle Nigel, are you at home? I’m coming over.” The kid was not giving up that easily. He rarely had the afternoon off, so he was dead set on coming over.
“Jared, how about you come over next time? I’ll bring you to some good food, go to the amusement park, and we can do whatever you want.” Nigel did not want to be overly obvious, so he had to coax the kid to change his mind. Otherwise, things might get out of hand.
“I don’t want that. I want to head over and play. I’m asking Mr. Caine to send me over now.” The kid had a private bodyguard, so he could go out whenever and wherever he wanted just by telling his bodyguard.
Nigel held his head as he tried to think of a solution. He could reject anyone, but the kid was clingy to him. Before he entered elementary school, he would come by every Saturday and stay the night. If he had not been swarmed by homework, he would have been coming over every weekend.
“How about this? Do you remember Mr. Gilmore? He has a whole set of games at his house. Why don’t you go there?”
“I can’t. My dad doesn’t let me visit other people’s houses at will, so I can only head to yours.” Jared was also afraid of getting scolded by his parents, so he laughed sheepishly before saying, “Uncle Nigel, I’m heading out now! You’ll see me soon.”
Without getting the chance to dismiss his visit again, he had no choice but to call for help when he saw that his nephew had already hung up the call. At this point, who else could he call other than Julian?
When Julian picked up Nigel’s call, his voice sounded a little slurred as though he had just woken up from a nap. “Hello…”
“Julian, are you free from this afternoon till 8.00PM tonight?”
“Yes! I am!”
“Can you come ove to my house immediately? I need your help.”
“What’s the matter?”
“My nephew insists on coming over to my house, but I’m going out on a date, so I need you to come over and accompany him.”
“You’re asking me to be a nanny?” Julian got the gist of the situation. In order to let his friend successfully go on his date, he would have to accept this job. “Sure. I’m coming over now.”
Since Nigel did not want his nephew to find out that there were feminine necessities in his home, Nigel reminded Julian, “Don’t bring him into the guest room beside my bedroom.”
“Understood. Quickly bring your girlfriend and leave! I’m coming over.” After saying that, Julian hung up.
Nigel let out a sigh of relief and discovered that it was only 3.00PM. He turned to Queenie and said, “Pack a set of clothes. We’re going to stay the night at the hotel there.”
Thinking that it might be a long trip back and forth from the beach, and staying for a night sounded like a good idea, Queenie agreed since she had not been to the beach in a long while. “Sure! I’ll go and pack my things now.”
After they packed lightly, Nigel came down to the underground parking lot and chose a cool sports car. Then, he opened the door and urged, “Get in.”
Queenie also felt relaxed, knowing that she was going on the trip. As they ascended the car, they left the residence.
Fifteen minutes after they departed, a white sports car arrived. It was Julian who arrived early because his home was close by to Nigel’s. Five more minutes later, a black Rolls Royce arrived.
The back door of the car opened automatically and down came a young boy in gray sports attire with handsomely styled hair that matched his perfectly defined face. It seemed that the Young Master of the Presgrave Family, Jared Presgrave, had grown some more.
Though he was young, he had inherited his father’s style and was exuding an elegant demeanor one might find among nobles.
“Uncle Nigel, I’m here!” The kid ran into the living room with his backpack.
However, he saw a different person waiting for him on the couch. He was stunned for a few seconds before turning chippy again. “Mr. Glimore, you’re here too!”
“Yes! Nigel isn’t free, so how about I accompany you for today?” Julian asked with a smile.
Of course, Jared would like that. Not only was Julian handsome, but he was also good at playing games too, so Jared nodded happily. “Sure!”
“Let’s go! Pick some snacks and we’ll head upstairs,” said Julian as he held the kid’s hand.
The reason Nigel had his stash of junk food was mostly because of this little fellow. After all, when Jared’s parents were busy dating, Nigel was Jared’s nanny and had spent a lot of time with him. Graduaily, Nigel would find snacks from all over the world to coax Jared.
Now, his stash of junk food had finally found its new purpose, which was to coax his girlfriend. On their way from the city area toward Seasight Lane, the blue sports car sped on the road like a blue panther.
While they drove toward the setting sun in the distance, the man and woman inside the car were happily chatting while enjoying the music.
Queenie was sent abroad after she turned eighteen. Coincidentally, she was staying in the same country as Nigel, but they were in different schools. After their conversation, she discovered that she had heard about his social circle back then.
That particular club was only open to the top wealthiest people and he used to be a member of that club. According to him, everyone inside the club was from a prominent family and the brightest among their peers. It was a social circle that everyone who studied abroad wanted to enter.
There was once when Queenie met a rich young master who liked her and wanted to introduce her to that social circle. However, she rejected the offer.
She was not a materialistic person, so she would not forcefully enter a social circle she could not enter. However, it was still the top social circle whom everybody racked their brains to get into.
Then, Nigel talked about his life. He told her about his hobbies, which were racing and skiing: not only that, he also had the top resources for those industries. On the other hand, he even helped his family widen its business into those industries.
Along the way, he also took a detour and brought her to a sightseeing platform that had the perfect spot to watch the sunset. After Queenie alighted from the sports car, she sat on the hood of the car with him and watched the beautiful sunset.
“Can’t I yell my feelings?” Queenie couldn’t keep her emotions bottled up any longer.
“Go ahead and yell all you like!” Nigel smiled.
Reaching up, she cupped her hands around the sides of her mouth, faced the sea stretching out into the horizon before her, and screamed at the top of her lungs. “Ahhh!!!”
It felt as though she had finally found an outlet to vent all the anger and frustration she suffered throughout the past year. She even had tears in her eyes after screaming a few times in quick succession.
“Come on! Why don’t you join me?” she suggested to the man standing behind her.
Nigel rarely did such things, but he couldn’t help being dragged along by her. When she let out another scream, he finally set aside his pride as a young master.
“Ahhh!!!” he yelled to his heart’s content.
After they were done yelling their hearts out, Queenie abruptly burst into laughter. It was at this moment that she stepped on a stone and lost her footing. In response, she instinctively threw herself into his arms and held onto him tightly.
At the same time, his long arms reached out to wrap around her waist to help her regain her footing.
She was still a little out of breath when she suddenly realized that the face of the man standing beside her was more attractive than the setting sun. Thus, she couldn’t help staring at him blankly for a few seconds.
In his eyes, her hair was slightly disheveled from the sea breeze. Despite her wind-blown hair, her eyes were incredibly bright and clear while her cherry-red lips were moist and glistening. It almost seemed as though she was silently inviting him to ravish her.
Queenie’s pretty face abruptly heated up in embarrassment when she realized what was going through his mind at this moment. Nevertheless, she only blinked once before she obediently closed her eyes.
