100 Days to Seduce the Devil-Chapter 303 Aiden’s Blabbering Mouth

Day Thirty-Five…

~~*****~~

After having lunch together with his father, Nathan went back to SYP Twilight Corp. Old Man Xu gave him a picture of Helena Carlsen.

"I must make a good impression," Nathan smirked as he watched her photo. When he said about making a good impression, he meant he would do what he can to turn her off.

Old Man Xu told his son to force Helena to break off the engagement by herself. That was Nathan's initial plan. But his father asked him to buy some time so he would still entertain his guest.

He wondered what kind of face Helena would show him during their first meeting.

Nathan put down Helena's photo on the table. The woman has blonde hair. She was slender like a model. She also has fair skin. But she didn't look like a foreigner. Overall, she was pretty.

But her sweetheart beauty didn't attract Nathan's attention. He wasn't interested in her. He already met several pretty women so he was already immune to their charm. But there was always an exemption. Someone caught his interest lately. And that person was none other than Abigail Scarlett.

At the thought of Abigail Scarlett, he recalled that Abigail had been trying to get his affection. She said it directly to him.

"Will she get jealous if she finds out that I'm dating another woman?" Nathan mumbled as he mused to himself.

Then a wide smirk flashed on his gorgeous face. He couldn't help it. He just found himself smiling when he thought about Abigail getting jealous.

'What will she do when she is jealous?' Nathan asked himself once more. For some unknown reason, he was looking forward to seeing her jealous.

"Should I tell her directly that I have a date… or should I just give her a hint, letting her figure out the situation?"

Nathan picked up his ballpen and played it on his palm. He clicked its back several times. He was so lost in his thoughts that he failed to notice Aiden entering his office.

Aiden was stomping his feet as he walked toward the vacant couch in the side corner of Nathan's office.

"Nate! Can you do me a favor? You already have a lot of employees. Why don't you send Cherry to me? I want to hire a new secretary!" Aiden demanded.

Aiden's voice snapped Nathan back to the present. He didn't expect a visitor today but Aiden just barged in as if it was his office.

"Don't you have work on the field site? You are supposed to do an on-site visit, Engr. Wu. Uncle told me that you were neglecting your work lately. Are you hanging out with your girlfriends again?" Nathan sounded like a big brother lecturing and reminding his naughty little bro. ƒ𝘳𝗲𝑒𝒘𝐞𝚋𝚗𝐨v𝘦l.𝒄o𝐦

Aiden rolled his eyes skyward. He had enough lectures today. His father also scolded him several times before leaving the office. He just escaped from his father and headed to his best friend's office, pestering him.

"I don't have girlfriends. I stopped dating them especially when my rejection video in the airport went viral. I should act like a real gentleman. I should take my next relationship seriously. I became a laughingstock because of that incident. However… I can't forgive those people who bashed Cherry on the internet. It was not Cherry's fault," Aiden ranted out what he truly felt.

"You've become obsessed with Black Rose. Be careful, my friend. She is a bit thorny." Nathan said, showing concern for his best friend.

"Hey. This is not an obsession! I just found her very amusing and cool… just like Abigail!" Aiden defended himself.

Meanwhile, Nathan frowned when Aiden mentioned Abigail's name. "Are you obsessed with Abigail as well?"

"Of course not! Abigail is like a sister to me. Though I admit that Abigail is a very charismatic woman, I only like her as a friend. So don't get mad at me. I'm not stealing her away from you! Don't be jealous of me. Okay?"

Nathan's frown deepened further because of Aiden's last remarks. "I'm not jealous of you. Why do you presume that I will get mad at you because of Abigail? She's not mine so you are not stealing her from me." Nathan blatantly denied Aiden's accusation.

"Liar!" Aiden blurted out. He burst out laughing as he found Nathan funny. Nathan was too defensive. His words were the opposite of his actions. "I caught you several times. You were giving me deathly glares whenever I talked to Abigail alone. Why are you still denying it, Nate? You have a crush on her. Admit it!" Aiden began teasing Nathan.

Since Nathan hadn't acknowledged his real feelings yet toward Abigail, he would never admit to having a crush on her, especially in front of Aiden. He had a blabbering mouth. No secrets would be safe with Aiden. That's what Nathan thought.

"Haha. Do you think you can fool me? Are you confident that you will not get mad at me if I kiss Abigail in front of you?" Aiden was testing Nathan.

Nathan's eyebrows twitched but he maintained his calm expression. "Go ahead and try… Let's see if you will still be able to see the sunrise once you do it," Nathan said meaningfully.

Aiden shook his head and rubbed his arms. Of course, he couldn't do it. Abigail would beat him to death. Black Rose also had the same reaction when he stole a kiss from her. She wanted to beat him and she was surrounded by a chilly aura.

"Alright. I won't do it. I don't want to die. But hypothetically, what will you do if you see Abigail in another man's arms? Are you sure you won't get mad and jealous?" Aiden asked him, a taunting smile flashing on his face.

Nathan just smiled at him and shook his head. But he was gripping the ballpen tightly in his fist.

"No. I already have a fiancé." Nathan declared to Aiden, giving him a great shock.

"WHAT?! Fiancé?! Are you kidding me, Nate?" Aiden blurted out exasperatedly. He got off the couch and approached Nathan.

"No. I'm not kidding. My Old Man found me a fiancé after visiting Country R. Here is her picture. Do you wanna see?" Nathan diverted Aiden's attention because he knew he was almost losing his cool. His best friend continued provoking him with hypothetical situations. If Aiden continued to speak about those things, he might give away his emotion and Aiden would see through him.

Aiden closed their gaps in an instant, snatching the photo from his hand. "OMG. Are you serious? Did you tell your son about this?"

"Not yet. How could I tell my son? That sly old man just informed me about it… just today."

"Well, this woman is pretty. But… Miss Abi is more charismatic than her!" Aiden shared his opinion as he assessed the photo of Helena. "What is her name?"

"Helena Carlsen. The daughter of the Chairman of AMB Diamond Corporation. She is a real deal according to my father," Nathan nonchalantly said, shrugging his shoulders.

"And you just agreed?! WHY? The Nathan I know will never allow his father to dictate about his relationship… most especially if it's about your marriage!" Aiden couldn't believe this. He raised his hands, reaching out to pinch Nathan's face.

"Are you an impostor?" Aiden asked him again, tilting his head from side by side.

Nathan hit his arms immediately. "Don't touch me, or else, I'll cut your hands." Nathan felt annoyed since Aiden even pinched his cheeks. It was so unmanly of him to do so.

"I agreed… because of the business proposal from my father. It's something I couldn't resist. I will be having a dinner date with her tomorrow." Nathan kept on providing Aiden with some information. He had this hunch that Aiden would become his messenger.

"What?! Too fast. Dinner date tomorrow. Is she here already?" Aiden was receiving one shock from another.

"Yes." Nathan simply said, turning around as he walked toward his executive chair. freℯ𝓌e𝚋𝐧𝘰vℯl.𝐜𝚘𝗺

The disbelief was still evident in Aiden's eyes. "Are you okay with this setup? Will Ethan allow you to do this?"

"As long as you won't tell my son. I will try to get to know her first." Nathan looked at Aiden meaningfully.

Aiden just bobbed his head. "Yes. Of course. I won't tell Ethan…"

"Good. Now, go back to your office. Oh, one last thing… about your request… I can't give Cherry to you. She already asked me if she could work with Stephen and became his secretary instead. She wanted to stay by Phantomflake's side."

Aiden pursed his lips in disappointment. "Sigh. I won't give up!" Aiden mumbled with so much determination.

"Go back to your station." Nathan waved his hand, urging Aiden to leave and not pester him anymore.

"Fine. I'm leaving!" Aiden said goodbye to Nathan.

He had just come out of Nathan's office when Aiden dialed Ethan's number. He told Nathan that he wouldn't tell Ethan about it. But here he was, already calling the young boy as if he was a spy planted by him to monitor his dad's actions.

After three rings, the call got connected. Ethan's small voice resounded from the other line.

"Hello, Uncle Aiden. Wazzup?"

"My adorable godson! I have some important news for you. But promise me that you won't tell your Dad that I call you. Okay?"

"Sure, Uncle. What news are you talking about?" Ethan asked him, feeling intrigued.

"Your grandpa found a fiancé for your father. He set him up with a very rich pretty lady from Country R!"

Ethan: "..."
