Macy thought she had Nathan in her pocket, but what Nathan's did as a reply, was just patting his coat and said faintly, "No. I can take good care of Wise. Besides, you are not an employee of the company. It's not appropriate."
"There's no one in the company on this weekend."
Macy Cho wouldn't give up.
She wanted to be involved with family business, but Nathan had always refused her request, with the claim of anti-nepotism. He also promised that if she really wanted to do business, he could start a company for her. In fact, she just wanted to spend more time with Nathan.
However, Nathan neglected the grievance in Macy's eyes. He replied with few emotion, "It's against the company rules. And today is all about internet, everybody is watching. Stop talking nonsense."
Immediately, tears welled up in Macy's eyes.
"Nathan, do you think taking me in will harm the company? It won't. I'm doing everything for the Ye Family."
"I know. But rules are rules. Macy, don't make things difficult for me."
Nathan's voice was still calm. But in that voice, there was a little impatience that only Macy can understand.
Macy knew that if she continued to pester Nathan, it might cause his disgust. Although she was very unwilling, she still took two steps back and went to cleaning the kitchen table.
When could she really become the matriarch of the Ye Family?
Macy controlled her anger well, by faking a calm look. She watched her son happily eating a few mouthfuls, then jumped off the table and ran toward Nathan. She suddenly felt jealous and resentful.
This brat had taken away all of Nathan's attention. This was not in her plan. How did she start to lose control, of everything?
However, Wise did not seem to understand Macy's concern. He took Nathan's hand happily and said, "Daddy, let's go. My classmate must be waiting anxiously. And he would think that I was lying to him."
"Alright, let's go!"
Nathan lifted Wise over his head and let him sit on his shoulder. The father and son walked out of the door, talking and laughing.
When they arrived at the gate of the kindergarten, Zion had already come for a while.
Wise opened the car door and ran down.
"Zion! Come on, my dad will take us to the company today."
Zion seemed shocked by Wise's words.
When he saw Nathan stepping out of the car and Wisdom Ye calling him daddy, Zion suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. Nathan never thought that Wise's classmate was Zion, the naughty boy who pissed him at the airport.
He quickly stepped forward and looked at Zion coldly. Even without speaking, the tension was obvious.
He was a superior, so many adults would feel unbearable when they saw Nathan's presence. However, Zion looked at Nathan without feeling it at all. He smiled slightly and said sweetly, "Hello sir, we meet again."
