176 Back to Work


    “I’ll be back tomorrow,” E said softly. Seeing Nathan’s tiny face that was almost crying, E couldn’t bear it.


    She couldn’t bear to leave Nathan alone. She also did not want to part with Nathan.


    Even though her rtionship with Christian wasn’t good, her feelings for Nathan were very sincere.


    There was a bit of guilt in her heart right now because she lied to Nathan. She was afraid that one day, Nathan would hate her after knowing everything.


    “I’m just going to go sell my old stuff and go to work to ask the manager if he’ll take me back there.” E said, stroking Nathan’s head. “I will not leave you.”


    “Old woman...” Suddenly, tears flowed from Nathan’s eyes and they continued to flow like a river. “You have lied to me so many times. I can’t trust you anymore.”


    Nathan held E’s thigh so she couldn’t leave. He was afraid that if E left the house, E would nevere back.


    He was afraid he would never see E again.


    Before, Nathan had never met someone who treated him as sincerely as E.


    .....


    Everyone tried to approach him because of his father’s status and his wealth. Only E loved him unconditionally.


    “If you don’te back, I will tell my father to take you home,” the threat made E smile.


    “I promise,” E replied softly.


    E rummaged through her bag and looked for a bracelet from the pile of jewels.


    “This is for you,” it was a bracelet with a small size, especially for children.


    When she was 8 years old, E chose this bracelet as her birthday present. The model was simple, but inside was the date of her birth that was very beautifully engraved.


    At the time of her eighth birthday, her father still loved her very much. The man specifically ordered this bracelet and engraved her birthday date on the inside.


    This was E’s favorite piece of jewelry because it was a gift from her father, whom she looked up to as her hero. Her first love...


    “Let me put it on for you,” E took Nathan’s hand and put the bracelet on him. After that, she looked at it with satisfaction. “It looks good, doesn’t it!”


    Nathan’s white and smooth skin was now adorned with a beautiful bracelet. Nathan also thought that it looked very good. He twisted his wrist and said, “Thank you.”


    Previously, Nathan was not very fond of jewelry. He always felt jewelry was a feminine thing.


    As a male, he should not wear feminine items such as bracelets.


    But what E gave him was different. E always gave the best for him.


    Seeing Nathan happy, E could only breathe a sigh of relief. Luckily, Nathan liked it. Even though the bracelet was an old item, this was all E could give Nathan.


    That bracelet had so many wonderful memories about her...


    “Just think of this bracelet when you miss me. I will always be by your side.” E smiled as she pinched Nathan’s cheek affectionately.


    Nathan nodded and stroked the bracelet. “Old woman, you shoulde back soon!”


    After that, E took her other jewelry out of the house.


    The butler wanted to chase after her, but Nathan stopped him. “Let her go today.”


    Finally, the butler decided to take Nathan’s words. Perhaps E had realized her mistake and wanted to meet Christian. That’s a good thing!


    E left Christian’s house and headed straight for the jewelry store, asking how much money she could make off all her jewelry.


    There were so many jewelry stores in the city and in no time, E found the right ce.


    Rarely did peoplee to sell jewelry, let alone a woman wearing expensive clothes. In addition, E also tried to bargain the price and get a higher price, much to the surprise of the shopkeeper.


    He rubbed his eyes and looked at the clothes E was wearing once again.


    This can’t be real!


    Based on his years of experience, he couldn’t possibly misjudge people.


    The people who came and went to his shop were mostly women from affluent circles. He was also very confident in his ability to judge others.


    E didn’t care about the shopkeeper’s gaze. She just wanted to sell her jewelry at a high price.


    When she bought all these jewels, E didn’t really care about the price so she didn’t know the price at all. Now, she felt stupid.


    She hated herself. Why didn’t she have a smart brain and a strong memory? She could’ve found the ce where she bought the jewelry and found out the price.


    In the past, her father was very generous to her. He always bought everything E wanted. Regardless of the price, Budi would definitely give E whatever she wanted.


    The memory was a beautiful memory for E.


    But sadly, remembering it now made her heart feel sore.


    “Miss, I... I have already given you the highest price,” said the shopkeeper. He didn’t lie and didn’t try to deceive E. He even had given a higher price than the average price in the market.


    “Call your manager,” E said to the shopkeeper.


    The manager rushed over. Through his sses, he looked at E with admiration. However, after hearing the story from the shopkeeper, he became suspicious.


    “Which family are you from?”


    It didn’t matter if he had to raise the price a little. The manager just didn’t want to get into trouble if it turned out that this woman was a girl who had run away from home.


    “From the Maheswara Family, Isabe Maheswara.”


    E made no attempt to hide it.


    And it immediately incited whispers among her surroundings.


    “Are you the banished daughter of the Maheswara Family? What a pity...”


    E just smiled ndly without saying anything. It was the first time she had received pity from another person.


    Everyone from a prominent family tried to stay away from her, seeing her like a virus just because she was put into a mental hospital once. They all thought mental illness was a contagious disease and they were afraid that E would infect them with it.


    The manager adjusted his sses again. Thinking that thisdy in front of him would not cause any trouble for him, he nodded.


    Finally, E managed to sell all the jewelry she had.


    All the money was sent straight to her bank


    After that, E exited the jewelry store, headed to the bus stop and went to the bar where she worked.


    She didn’t really like the ce where many people gathered to drink, but that was the only ce that epted her.
