162 The Evil One


    “Thank you for sending all this stuff. I will keep it. One day, I will pay you for this favor.” E showed her intentions very clearly.


    She didn’t want Liam to go near her.


    She kept her distance and drew an invisible line between herself and Liam.


    In the end, Liam had no other choice but to ept E’s decision.


    Just for the time being...


    E looked at Liam’s back which was getting further and further away from her sight with a look of relief and sadness at the same time.


    She was sad that she had to treat Liam like this. But she did all of this for Liam’s good. She didn’t want Liam to get into trouble with Christian.


    After all, no one could stand against Christian.


    And now, only E could protect him.


    .....


    Since then, Nathan had always been beside E and held her hand, watching the two people in front of him speak. He could feel her hand getting wet from her own sweat.


    Nathan frowned as he felt his palm slowly turning wet. He knew very well what made this woman so nervous that she was sweating.


    “Are you afraid of my father?”


    Nathan could understand why E kept walking away from this man. Nathan didn’t like Liam either, but that didn’t mean he didn’t understand why E was trying to stay away from Liam.


    He knew that E didn’t hate Liam as much as she hated the two ugly women who had bullied her.


    E nodded her head when she heard this question. “I don’t think there’s anyone who isn’t afraid of your father, except you.” She didn’t try to hide her fear of Christian in Nathan’s presence.


    Nathan himself must have known how his father treated other people. The man was only gentle and soft to his son.


    Christian was ruthless wherever he was, forcing everyone to bow their heads before him.


    While thinking about this, E curled up slightly.


    She didn’t know how long Christian would leave her like this.


    Had Christian found a recement? Or had he found another woman who was more attractive than her?


    The more E thought about it, the more panicked she became. She felt she must take the initiative to find Christian.


    What must she do to please Christian?


    Suddenly, E felt her head hurt again.


    She was so poor and had no money to buy anything! She couldn’t buy a present for Christian. What must she do to make Christian forgive her?


    She was deep in thought when Nathan suggested, “Why don’t you just tell dad that you don’t like that uncle just now? Just tell dad you won’t see him again.”


    E couldn’t help but roll her eyes.


    “Fat boy, don’t you know that your father has a bad temper?”


    E crouched down and tried to exin to Nathan, “If I tell your father, your father will be very angry. When he is angry, he will attack that uncle. If that uncle gets hurt, we will be called the bad guys for causing it to happen.”


    Nathan listened to E’s exnation and understood it.


    He just didn’t want Liam to bother E, no more than that. Nathan also didn’t want to harm other people.


    He was just afraid that the uncle would snatch E from him.


    Seeing Nathan who was deep in thought, E continued, “That’s why we can’t tell your father.”


    “Dad...” Nathan blinked repeatedly and said, “Is dad a bad person?”


    E couldn’t believe it when she heard Nathan’s question. How could this boy reach such a conclusion?


    E really wanted to smack him in the mouth.


    If Nathan said that in front of Christian, E would be responsible for it!


    “Nathan, how can you talk like that about your father!” E looked at Nathan seriously. “You must respect your father!”


    Luckily, Nathan asked her first. If Nathan’s question reached Christian’s ears, wouldn’t E suffer the consequence? She was the babysitter for god’s sake!


    Nathan looked a little annoyed and with his puffy cheeks, he said, “Isn’t that what you meant earlier?”


    E looked at him for a long time and said, “It seems yournguage skills are very good.”


    “Why did you rebuke me then praise me now?” Nathan looked confused.


    It was rare for this old woman to praise him.


    E shrugged her shoulders nonchntly. “Just feels like it.”


    ...


    The situation at Maheswara’spany finally stabilized.


    Budi looked at his daughter who was sitting on the sofa watching TV and said in a serious voice, “Haikal doesn’t seem to pay much attention to youtely, huh?”


    Indri was surprised to hear the question.


    Budi had already told her to get Haikal and never let him go.


    The Adisurya family could also be considered a fairly well-known family in this city. If the two families joined forces and cooperated, they could fight the other families.


    Indri’s face looked hard to predict.


    She also wanted to win Haikal’s heart. But she didn’t know what had happened recently. She didn’t know what made Haikal so cold to her, he didn’t even want to answer her call.


    In front of everyone, they were still engaged, but then Haikal continued to visit different nightclubs every night.


    The only day that Haikal didn’t go to a nightclub was when he discussed the investment matters with Budi.


    “Father, I don’t want to be treated like this either.” Indri pursed her lips and looked at her father disapprovingly. “Isn’t all this because of E?”


    “What happened to her?”


    When talking about E, Budi’s brow furrowed.


    He didn’t understand how his daughter could be a babysitter. When he investigated E and got the information, Budi was really surprised.


    But if E could get close to Christian, that’s a good thing for him. Why should he waste it?


    “Father, don’t you know that E has been in contact with Haikal before, right?” Indri took a deep breath. “Haikal must still like E and E took this opportunity to tease Haikal. And, I suspect that thepany’s recent troubles have something to do with her. Otherwise, why would Haikal want you to invest funds into his project when ourpany already suffers.”


    Those words immediately enlightened Budi.


    All this time, he was surprised when thepany suddenly experienced difficulties. Now the truth had been exposed.


    His face was immediately filled with anger.


    The anger made Indri feel happy. A hint of pride appeared on her face.


    She wanted to see how E could remain arrogant in front of her father!


    “Father, I can’t ept all this. How can we stay silent while being treated like this by E?” Indri whined in front of her father.
