My Killing President novel Chapter 682

It was a sleepless night.

Nancy lied on the bed for a long time but she just kept flipping around and couldn't fall asleep. The woman's mind was in a complete mess and she fell asleep around four o'clock in the morning.

Early the next morning, she heard the doorbell. She was so sleepy and she struggled for a long time to get out from her bed.

"Who is it?" After opening the door, she saw Antonio Lu standing by the door. Nancy was stunned, "Xiao-an? What are you doing here?"

"I'm here to bring you breakfast! How was it, did you sleep well?" Antonio Lu said smilingly as he walked inside.

"Oh…" Nancy answered indifferently and closed the door after him.

Antonio Lu put the breakfast on the table and said, "Let's eat!"

Nancy walked over and sat opposite him. When she looked at the breakfast he meticulously prepared, she wasn't the least bit moved but she felt guilty, "You don't have to send breakfast to me so early in the morning!" She said.

"How can that be. You just moved here. What if you can't get used to it? I promised to take care of you properly. Therefore, from today onwards, I will come over to eat breakfast with you!" Antonio Lu said.

The more he does that, the more Nancy felt guilt ridden.

Antonio Lu looked at her and ate his breakfast, "What do you want to do today?"

Nancy was eating and she was stunned when she heard him, "I want to rest at home today!"

"Didn't you rest well last night?"

"Yeah, I fell asleep around five o'clock in the morning. Still haven't gotten used to the new place!" Nancy said honestly.

Antonio Lu nodded, "All right, just rest properly today. I'll bring you out some other day!"

"Okay!" Nancy nodded.

At that time, Antonio Lu's phone rang. When he saw the number, he took his phone and walked away to answer it.

"Hello…" He lowered his voice.

"I will think of a way. I'll get over right now!" After saying that, he hung up.

Antonio Lu walked back and sat down. Nancy looked at him and asked, "Did anything happen?"

Antonio Lu forced a smile, "It's nothing. Just a problem in the company!"

"Do you need to rush back?"

"I'll go back after eating with you!" Antonio Lu said.

"There's no need for that. You should go back to your company and handle your work matters first!" Nancy said.

Antonio Lu contemplated for a while and nodded, "Okay. Then you should rest after breakfast. I will visit you again in the night!"

"Okay!" Nancy nodded.

Antonio Lu took his car keys and left.

As Nancy saw him leaving, she was relieved. She couldn't shake off the feeling that Antonio Lu was treating her too well. It didn't feel real at all.

Therefore, she just couldn't be restful…

However, she didn't think much and decided to follow with the flow. After all, she just gave her bold declaration to move out. She couldn't be going back to the Mu House with her tails between her legs now.

As she thought about that, she finished her food and went back to rest on her bed. Since she knew that Antonio Lu would only be coming in the night, she was able to relax herself and sleep.

……

When it was afternoon, Nancy woke up and she felt hungry. She wanted to get out to eat something but she was bored doing that alone. After pondering for a while, she decided to give Jerry Kuang a call.

The two of them met outside and Nancy was having a good time.

She wasn't very close with Jerry Kuang but he was the limited friend she had in A city. Not only that, he was close with Alistair and she could be restful around him.

"Why are you looking for me so suddenly?" Jerry Kuang looked at her and asked. He didn't have much of an appetite towards the food. The man was simply watching as Nancy ate.

"I only know you and him over here. Who do you expect me to find?"

"Now I became the spare tire!"

Nancy smiled, "Don't be jealous, you are not my spare tire!"

Jerry Kuang's lips curled up. He lifted his glass of red wine and shook it gently. After that, he sipped on it elegantly, "I heard that you moved out from the Mu House!"

Nancy was stunned for a while and she continued to eat. She didn't even raise her head, "You managed to get the news quite soon!"

"So it was right!"

"Yeah, it is…" Nancy continued to eat. The woman made herself busy to hide her restlessness and dejection.

Jerry Kuang lowered his wineglass but continued to play around with his glass casually and lazily, "You moved in with Antonio Lu?"

"It seemed that you have known everything!" She chewed and answered slowly.

"Nancy, are you serious?" Jerry Kuang raised an eyebrow and asked. His deep gaze seemed to be able to dissect everything. The man continued to stared at her.

Nancy didn't know what to say and she simply replied, "I don't know…"

Although Jerry Kuang didn't say anything, he could tell Nancy's feelings towards Alistair. The man knew that she wouldn't be able to give up so easily.

"Are you doing that on purpose to frustrate Alistair?" The man was asking the question but it seemed that he had already known the answer.

Was she so obvious?

If she was, why could Jerry Kuang tell and Alistair couldn't?

Nancy didn't say anything but her silence was the best answer.

Jerry Kuang's lips curled up as he looked at her lazily, "Nancy, do you know what are the consequences of you doing that?"

When Nancy heard that, she raised her gaze and showed a puzzled expression, "What kind of consequence?"

"Do you think you can make Alistair regret by doing that? You are simply making yourself look cheap!" Jerry Kuang spoke his mind in an objective point of view.

Nancy was shocked and she stared at Jerry Kuang, "Why?"

"First of all, you moving out the Mu House was a silly move to cut clean from him. Do you think you could get him to think of you more by doing that? Secondly, in Alistair's point of view, you are moving in with another man. Do you think he can accept a woman that had been with another man?" Jerry Kuang asked.

All of a sudden, Nancy sank into a sudden realization. She was simply trying to get Alistair's attention and make him frustrated. She wasn't thinking in her right mind and hadn't been considering so much factors. Now that he mentioned it, it did sound foolish.

The woman sat in her seat and her face turned pale.

Jerry Kuang said no more. The man simply stared at Nancy. His deep gaze was carrying a sense of wisdom and sophistication.

"I… I didn't live together with him. I was simply staying in another apartment of his!" After a long while, Nancy responded.

Jerry Kuang simply raised his eyebrows uncaringly and lifted his wineglass elegantly, "It doesn't matter what I think or what I know. Most importantly, it is what Alistair thinks that matters. Moreover, he had been fooling around enough with women and I don't think he would believe you!"

Nancy tightened her grip on the cutlery. She was thinking about the gravity of the situation.

She must admit that Jerry Kuang was making a strong and logical point.

Nancy raised her gaze and looked at Jerry Kuang. Her eyes were making a distress call, "I know. But what can I do now?"

"Go back!"

"No!" Nancy refused right away.

"Why?"

"No particular reason!" Nancy answered. She was the one that stubbornly wanted to move out. Now she just couldn't bring herself to tell Alistair she wanted to move back.

When Jerry Kuang saw how determined she was, there was just nothing he could say. The man simply nodded, "All right. Since you have made up your mind, there is no point for me to say anything." After saying that, he took up his fork and knife and ate his steak elegantly.

Nancy sank into silence. She was feeling a strong conflict inside. She could be determined when others tried to persuade her. When they gave up, she would feel dejected as if she was being given up.

Nancy's mind was wandering around while the two of them ate together.

"By the way, how are things going on between you and that guy?" Jerry Kuang didn't even remember Antonio Lu's name.

"Just like that!" Nancy answered slowly and wasn't showing any interest at all.

"What's his name again?"

"Antonio Lu!"

"Oh, right, that guy! Do you even know that guy?"

"Why are you asking that?"

"I heard that his company is facing some cash flow problem and he owed a total of four-million-dollar debt!" Jerry Kuang said indifferently. As if it was the most unimportant thing to him.

When Nancy heard that, she frowned. The woman recalled the call he received this morning. Was that about this issue?

"Where did you hear that from?"

"Anyone could get ahold of that information if they just investigate him a little. Why? You don't know about that?" Jerry Kuang asked.

Nancy, "...I didn't ask!"

"However it may be, let me give you a piece of advice. Before you know anything, make sure you don't give him anything!" He stared at her and said seriously.

"Even if that is the case, that doesn't mean he stayed with me for the sake of money!" Nancy said.

Jerry Kuang nodded agreeably, "But with his company doing so badly, does it make sense for him to enjoy a good time bringing you around? It doesn't matter. I was simply trying to remind you. It is your matter after all and you are ultimately responsible for your own actions!" Jerry Kuang said. He had done enough by alerting the woman.

Nancy didn't continue to discuss the matter with Jerry Kuang. After having their meal, she went back.

After they got to the apartment's parking, Jerry Kuang raised an eyebrow and asked, "Are you staying here?"

Nancy nodded and walked down the car.

"Which floor?"

"The twelfth!"

Jerry Kuang nodded, "All right, see you!"

"Okay, drive safe!"

Jerry Kuang didn't say anything more and simply drove away. Nancy got back upstairs.

After getting inside the house, Nancy sat down and watched the TV. Although it was just the first day after she moved here, she couldn't help but started to feel bored and lonely already.

The sound from the TV resounded in the empty house.

In the evening, the doorbell rang and Nancy knew Antonio Lu came.

She walked over and opened the door.

Right after the door was opened, Antonio Lu walked inside wobblingly.

"Hey, what's wrong with you?" Nancy asked as she noticed a strong smell of alcohol, "Have you been drinking?"

"A little bit…" Antonio Lu answered.
