Sharing the Beloved

Secret

Daniel looked at the cell phone that kept ringing, confused to answer or ignore. But given Nancy's threat, she inevitably kept answering the phone.

"Hello, Dan." The voice from across there sounded very enthusiastic.

"Yes Nan, why?"

"Tomorrow I'd like to invite you to go shopping, can you?"

Daniel gave his forehead, again feeling dizzy with Nancy's request. He already had an appointment with Celline, it would be impossible if he canceled it right? Moreover, yesterday he had canceled his promise also because he helped Nancy.

If now she cancels her meeting tomorrow, then Celline will be angry again, but what about Nancy? She had heard a lot about Nancy who was often serious about her words.

"I've got an appointment with Celline tomorrow." Daniel answered carefully. She was afraid to offend Nancy or make her angry.

"Promise to where? You remember what I said?"

Daniel exhaled his breath violently. "Okay, tomorrow we go. Satisfied?" Without waiting for Nancy to answer, Daniel immediately disconnected the phone.

On the other end of the phone, the corner of Nancy's lips lifted into a triumphant smile. It's that easy, isn't it? Yes, the higher one's influence, the easier it is to get what one wants.

That is the most real way the world works. As long as someone has a lot of money or position, it is not difficult to 'buy' someone.

"Look at it, Cell. Who will she choose later," Nancy muttered as she twirled the phone in her hand.

"Damn!!" daniel shouted as he ruffled his hair violently. He was upset by what happened. Especially if you remember the girl by the name of Nancy, it feels just want to drown her in the river.

"Why again? You're like a stressed person." Aaron walked into the room carrying two cans of cold drink along with some snacks.

He had been a little surprised by Daniel for the past two days. His friend looked very messy and not passionate, like having a hard life problem. It's not usually like this.

"Fine first, here." Aaron throws a can of drink at Daniel and is immediately apprehended by him.

Daniel immediately opened the can and downed it a lot. The fresh taste in his throat made him a little more relieved. "Thanks." -."

"I'm good, right?" aaron asked, raising both eyebrows.

Daniel sneered. "I know this product is a promo again. If no one wants a stingy person like you buy a snack."

Aaron looked at Daniel with a sneering mouth, but he did not say any further. His hands were only focused on opening the package of food he had just bought in Alfamarket.

"Ron, I'm so dizzy that you're eating a mouthful" Daniel said, pulling food out of Aaron's hand.

Finally Daniel returned the food to Aaron out of pity to see the look of his friend. "You know what Nancy is?"

"Oh, who's the rich man's son?"

Daniel nodded. "Yes, he invited me to make him shop."

"Bro, I'm confused. I agree, don't I?" Aaron looked at Daniel with ridicule.

Daniel smiled wryly. If she had any feelings for Nancy she would have agreed. Unfortunately, everything is not that simple. She never liked Nancy, how could she come out with her and instead ignore Celline?

Seems telling Aaron the problem only makes him more dizzy. Yes, because the man was completely unable to help solve his problem.

"Now, don't think about it."

"..."

The next afternoon Daniel opened his phone and prepared to call Celline. After thinking all night he had finally decided to cancel his meeting with Celline.

It wasn't about her liking Nancy more, but she didn't want Nancy to do anything to the Celline. Moreover, the girl was a descendant from among the people, maybe she should give up first.

"Cell, I'm sorry I think watching us get delayed. I have other interests" he said on the phone.

"What interests, Dan? How sudden?"

"Yes, Cell about the campus anyway. Later if it's loose, I call you again." Daniel said with guilt. Just this time he lied to Celline, but he really had no other way.

Celline felt a little disappointed, but she tried to understand Daniel's circumstances. Perhaps the man did have other, more important matters. He trusts.

"Yes, no papa" Celline replied briefly. Yes, he must remember that they are just friends. Can't she always be there for him?

Uh! Still he was upset!

Eventually he reluctantly pressured another contact to call. "Des, let's watch. I'm not going to watch Daniel."

"Seriously? Okay, I'll pick you up now."

Yeah, rather than him spending time alone in a deserted boarding house, he better go get rid of his fatigue. Even if it wasn't with Daniel.
