After sleeping for ten hours, Nicholas woke up at five in the afternoon.
After parting ways with Stefanie that day, she went to Hermina Solo General Hospital.
Efendi has been hospitalized for a year. When on the phone, Efendi's condition was very unstable. Fortunately, the doctor saved her in time, and managed to pull her back from the door of death.
Although Efendi had previously done many evil deeds, all of the deeds he had done were orders from Alex, and as the firstborn, he had cared deeply for his three younger siblings since childhood, so no matter what, after all, Nicholas won't give up on taking care of his eldest brother.
Nicholas turned around and got off the bed, he picked up the burgundy nightgown on the chair and put it on. She did not tie her belt too tightly, her wide open collar part exposing her sexy chest muscles.
Nicholas was still drowsy, he walked into the bathroom in a lazy style, as he passed through the closet, he all picked up the phone on the shelf and glanced at it.
Thirty more messages are unread, but 90% are messages from Denny.
Nicholas closes all messages from Denny, then opens one of the other messages.
Vice-captain: [Video Junardi put the medicine into the girl's glass I copied.]
Vice-captain: [Brass.mp4]
Nicholas's corner of his lips lifted and called Stefanie.
________
A VIP guest by the name of ”Free Space” booked a private club, all the glass windows on the first floor were covered in white curtains, this guest looks very concerned about privacy.
The second and third floors are restaurants, one in a natural style and the other in a European style.
However, Nicholas' chosen location was on the top floor terrace.
Stefanie who was afraid of heights was brought to the top floor by the maid. At first she panicked, but she did not expect that once out of the stairs, her worries instantly disappeared upon seeing the beautiful scenery.
When the sun was about to set, the reddish clouds in the blue sky were more beautiful than any painting of a famous artist.
Stefanie stood at the top of the stairs staring at the sky and was stunned, while Nicholas who was sitting beside the pool, looked at her with the corners of his lips slightly raised.
"Have you been satisfied to see it?" Nicholas said helplessly.
In the past, Nicholas would say this word when girls kept staring at him and made him feel uncomfortable.
Stefanie regained consciousness, smiled as a sign of apology, and immediately sat down on the chair that Nicholas had pulled out of.
"You said there was something you wanted to give me, what was that?"
Looking at Stefanie who went straight into the main topic, Nicholas tapped the table twice to express his dissatisfaction, “Are you going to go straight after taking it?”
"Of course not, I rushed here before I finished eating in the cafeteria, so I still have to eat the second round again."
Nicholas smiled, raising his hand to call the waiter, "Give the menu to this miss."
"Thank you." Stefanie took the menu from the waiter and opened it.
Stefanie was focused on looking at the menu, her white finger moving over the menu book, looking like a student reviewing the subject matter while about to take the exam.
Nicholas who was opposite him chuckled, “Seriously, as experienced as ever, need my help?”
Stefanie looks up, “There's nothing you can't eat?”
“No.”
“Good.” Stefanie nodded, pointing at the food she wanted to order, “Two vegetable soups, one lobster paste, one slice of french fish, one peanut parfait, one pumpkin puff cake, um ... and one raw venison."
Hearing the last menu name that Stefanie ordered, Nicholas was a little surprised, “You ate raw venison?”
Stefanie shook her head, “I ordered it for you.”
“Why?”
"You look a little tired so need to add nutrients."
???
Nicholas didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Which part needs to be supplemented with nutrients?"
“...”
Stefanie sighed helplessly, "You really should be more careful when talking and doing things later. We've only known each other for a few days. Do you really know me? What if I'm the bad guy who wants to blackmail you? What if my phone is recording your voice?"
Nicholas leaned back and listened to his lecture with interest, "Are you going to upload it on the Internet?"
"Yes, you will be trending topic again tomorrow!"
Nicholas didn't care at all, he didn't look serious, "Do I need to say something more explicit?"
“No need!” Stefanie felt it was a waste to talk a lot with Nicholas.
The waiter arrived on time, delivering two appetizers, vegetable soup and raw venison.
The thirsty Stefanie drank a spoonful of soup, she felt it was very good, then continued to drink it.
Seeing Stefanie drinking vigorously, Nicholas also tried, but he was very disappointed, "Have changed the chef, the soup I made is better than this chef.."
“You can cook?” As if discovering a new continent, Stefanie's eyes widened.
“You want to try my cooking?”
Stefanie shook her head, "What I want to say is that you can use your advantages, which are “smart cooking” to return to the public. A handsome man who can cook will very easily attract fans!" ‘About a year later, there was a male artist who gained a lot of fans on the internet because of his gastronomy.’
Stefanie sincerely suggested, but Nicholas did not even think about it, he resolutely refused, "I don't want to do it."
"Why ..." Stefanie was just about to ask her, the waiter had come to deliver the dish again, but this time, there was another man behind her.
“Nicholas, why didn't you tell me you were coming here?” The formally dressed man said very kindly when he saw Nicholas, he looked extremely excited.
Nicholas got up and smiled, not as enthusiastically as the formally dressed man, but with a hint of respect, "I plan on finishing a new meal telling you Kak.”
With a smile "I know you must want to ask me for help", the formally dressed man sat at Nicholas and Stefanie's table, he turned to look at Stefanie, and smiled in shock, "This lady is your boyfriend? If Efendi finds out that you already have a boyfriend, he will definitely open his eyes!"
"If it's true, I'll make him my girlfriend."
Nicholas didn't look at Stefanie when she said this, and Stefanie knew it was just a joke, so she didn't react, she just sat quietly by the side and didn't join the conversation between the two.
"Sister, after I think about it, I think I need to show you this."
Getting into the main topic, Nicholas opened the video on his phone and handed it to the formally dressed man.
Looking at the video in front of Stefanie, Stefanie glances at the video on the phone screen and sees Junardi putting the medicine in July's glass, and then she arrives.
The man in the formal suit turned his head and looked at Stefanie who was next to him, "Miss, thank you very much. If you hadn't stopped that son of a bitch, now my brother would be troubled."
“OK, I know what to do” He smiled at Nicholas, then got up, “You guys continue eating, this dinner fee let Junardi pay for it. Wait a few more days when I am not busy, I will visit Efendi with you!”
“Good.”
Nicholas escorts the formally dressed man to the stairs, and as he turns and walks back, he sees Stefanie waiting at the dinner table, putting on the look of detective Conan.
"This is what you're gonna give me? How did you know that Junardi was spreading rumors about me on campus?"
Stefanie's speaking tone trembled slightly, as she felt fear. He was afraid that Nicholas had many relationships and in a short time would find out that he was the one who photographed and fabricated the fake news.
“Why? You moved?” Nicholas came back not serious, he sat back in his chair, his beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and his dark pupils looked at Stefanie, “Did you feel that I was very attentive to you? And you want to return the favor by marrying me?”
Not knowing if due to the nervousness of being stared at by Nicholas, Stefanie felt her heart beating fast, her cheeks also felt hot, "No."
Nicholas takes a spoonful of raw venison that Stefanie ordered for him, like a tender venison tasting, Nicholas enjoys a red hue on Stefanie's cheek, "What gossip is Junardi spreading on your campus? So the mistress?"
Stefanie nodded.
Nicholas sneered, his tone full of disdain, "This one again."
"So, you guessed it based on your experience?"
"Do you want to praise me?" Nicholas looked attentive.
Stefanie was secretly relieved, she smiled and praised without hesitation, "Nicholas, you are so great, your prowess should be known by more people! How about you use the 'smart cooking' excess points to ..."
Amused by Stefanie's talk that looked like she was persuading criminals to repent, Nicholas leaned forward and looked into Stefanie's eyes with interest, "You're frustrated that you want to help me, you want to help me, is it because of money? Or...semi get me?”
