Chapter 232: Chapter 232

Hearing this voice, Nancy Sutton’s face darkened even more. As expected, it was that pest she hated the most!

"None of your damn business!"

Nancy Sutton rolled her eyes dramatically at him, her tone harsh, clearly despising him.

"Nancy, don’t be so fierce. We haven’t seen each other for so long, let’s catch up..."

Miles Keaton’s gaze was fixed tightly on her, showing a hint of infatuation in his eyes.

"Don’t call me that, you’re not worthy!" Nancy Sutton’s face showed even more disgust, "Please get lost and stay far away from me!"

Miles Keaton frowned, "No matter what, we were childhood friends. Nancy, why do you despise me so much?"

"Pah! Childhood friends, my ass." Nancy Sutton rolled her eyes as if they were about to reach the sky, "Don’t disgust me, we were just neighbors, had nothing to do with being childhood friends!" Dıscover more novels at novel·fiɾe·net

This pest had been like a shadow since they were kids, always bullying her, and they often fought because of it.

However, she went abroad later and finally shook off that pest. But unexpectedly, she ran into him again today, what rotten luck!

Nancy Sutton didn’t want to say another word to him, turned around to leave, but just as she took a step, her arm was tightly grabbed.

"Miles Keaton, let go of me..."

Nancy Sutton struggled hard to shake off his hand, but the strength difference between genders was significant. Not only did she fail, but Miles gripped her even tighter.

"Nancy Sutton, I need to talk to you! You can’t leave!"

"I don’t want to hear it, get lost!"

Nancy Sutton struggled with all her might, finally shaking off his hand, and hurriedly turned to go back to the private room. Miles Keaton urgently chased after her, and just as he was about to grab her again, a pair of long, attractive hands intervened, stopping him from touching Nancy Sutton at all.

"Hasn’t anyone taught you not to force a girl to do something she doesn’t want to?"

Elliot Everett’s dark eyes narrowed dangerously behind his gold-rimmed glasses. One hand was gripping Miles Keaton’s arm, while the other protectively placed Nancy Sutton behind him.

"Elliot... Young Master Everett..."

Recognizing Elliot Everett’s identity, Miles Keaton’s face changed dramatically, cold sweat breaking out on his forehead as he hurriedly spoke.

"Young Master Everett, you’ve misunderstood. I wasn’t forcing her to do anything she didn’t want to, Nancy and I know each other, we’re childhood friends..."

For some reason, those four words sounded extremely grating to Elliot Everett, and his grip on Miles’ arm suddenly intensified.

"Crack," was the sound of bones breaking.

Miles Keaton just let out a sound when he was intimidated by Elliot Everett’s powerful aura, so scared that he didn’t dare scream further, only able to endure the severe pain in his arm as he spoke quietly.

"Young Master Everett, I just wanted to say something to her..."

When Elliot Everett turned to look at Nancy Sutton, he resumed his usual tenderness, softly asking her, "Would you like to listen?"

Nancy Sutton immediately shook her head, "I don’t want to."

She didn’t want to say another word to that pest!

"Did you hear that? She doesn’t want to listen."

When Elliot Everett looked at Miles Keaton, his gaze was extremely cold, his icy voice carrying a heavy warning.

"Don’t bother her again in the future."

With that, Elliot Everett naturally took Nancy Sutton’s hand and turned to leave, leaving behind Miles Keaton holding his broken arm, standing there pale with pain.

Miles Keaton’s face was quite unpleasant, and a strong sense of crisis arose in his heart.

Since when did Nancy know Young Master Everett... and they seem to be quite close...

Nancy Sutton obediently let him lead her away, her face blushing as she looked at their intertwined fingers.

They were actually holding hands...

But before Nancy Sutton could feel happy for long, memories of what he said to Seth Sterling outside the private room that day flashed in her mind.

He just thought she was obedient, treating her like a younger sister!

All the joy in Nancy Sutton’s heart vanished, and she forcefully shook off his hand.

She didn’t want to be his obedient little sister!

"You don’t want to go back to the private room?" Elliot Everett misinterpreted her intention, his tone indulgent, "Then shall I take you home?"

Nancy Sutton looked down, not meeting his gaze, coldly refusing, "No need to trouble President Everett, I can go back myself!"

Tsk, she’s still mad at him!

Elliot Everett raised his hand to remove his gold-rimmed glasses, rubbing his forehead helplessly, leaning down close to her, his deep and pleasant voice filled with indulgence.

"Nancy, why are you really upset with me?"

With glasses, Elliot Everett appeared elegant and restrained, but once they were off, it was as if his restraint was lifted, giving off a bit more edginess.

They were so close now...

Nancy Sutton’s heartbeat quickened uncontrollably. Meeting his deep, gentle eyes, she was practically dazed.

She already liked him, and he was being so gentle, it was simply unfair!

How was she supposed to stay mad at him ...

Seeing Nancy Sutton seemed not as angry anymore, Elliot Everett tenderly patted her head, his voice low as he coaxed her.

"Nancy, I was wrong, can I apologize to you? Don’t be mad..."

Although he had no idea what he had done wrong to make her so angry, apologizing first couldn’t be a mistake.

Hearing this, Nancy Sutton snapped out of her daze, biting her lip hard, even more furious.

"You don’t even know what you’re apologizing for, you’re just brushing me off!"

Elliot Everett didn’t expect his words to make her angry again, leaving him at a loss.

"I hate you the most!"

Nancy Sutton forcefully shook off his hand, angrily turning to leave. Elliot Everett was at a loss, not knowing why his attempts to appease her were making her angrier, so he quickly took long strides to catch up.

But just then, a mocking male voice sounded behind him.

Not far away, Damian Quinn’s attractive, sensual lips curved lazily, watching the scene with a playful look.

"Big brother, even you have days !"

They had known each other for so many years, it was rare to see Elliot Everett in such a predicament! It was gratifying!

Standing aside, Chase Sherman couldn’t help but almost burst out laughing. Master Damian was truly enjoying this too obviously!

As expected, Elliot Everett’s handsome face turned completely dark, "Get lost! Who the hell is your big brother!"

Elliot Everett wasn’t surprised to see him there. This restaurant was the best in Imperia, a favorite spot for high society to discuss business and socialize.

Damian Quinn’s captivating eyes sparkled with even more amusement, "Big brother, it seems you didn’t manage to appease her just now. Want me to teach you some ways to coax someone?"

Elliot Everett was tempted for a moment, but then remembered how Damian used those tricks to win over Serena, and couldn’t help but feel itchy, wanting to kill that old rascal!
