Chapter 708 - Graduation Part 1

It's been two months since Nate reconcile with Kale. He promised not to hurt her. So, their life goes on and Kale didn't mention it to Nate's parents until Nate is ready. Graduation is in a few days. He already finished his thesis and he passes the defense. Also, Ricky came to apologize but Nate threatened him, of course.

Nate bought a car for Kelsie. The one that Kelsie could drive. It's been two months too when he started teaching her to drive. She already has her license and she can drive around the town. At least he won't worry about that when he leaves.

He tried hard to consider divorce before he leaves for the Philippines. But he'll continue supporting her. However, she still didn't know about it. His graduation is also nearby and his parents will come of course. He got it on the top. He also didn't if he should introduce her to them as his wife.

At this moment, he's busy with few doc.u.ments and she still there to support him. Makes food for him, wash the laundry, clean and treat him like a King in every way. She'll be fine. He thought about that. She's also independent. If she wanted a job, he could search for one for her or give her a position in their branch here.

"Wifey, is the dinner ready?" He asked.

"Yes." She nodded. "Are hungry?"

"Starving." He smiled at her.

They eat their dinner as usual. It's candlelight too. They will have the best dessert that she made. After dinner, she will wash the dishes and clean the kitchen and dining room. While he will go and watch some television or read or chat with his family. It's like he had an instant maid.

He went to his study room and checked the divorce papers that he told his lawyer to make. His phone started ringing and he put it down. He went to the balcony to answer it.

"Hi, dad."

"Hi, son. Alright, so, I haven't had the plan for your first job. You can relax for a few months if you want."

"Sure. Is that your supposed to be a gift?"

"Yeah. Besides, Cyra talked to me. She needed you and Natalia and just enjoy whatever you and your cousin are planning."

"Okay."

"We'll be at your graduation."

"Alright." He chuckled.

"Good night."

"Good night dad." He hung up. He turned to the half-open door. She knocked.

"Do you want some milk?"

"Let's just go to bed." He said.

They went to bed, make love as he always wants. He used s.e.x toys to please her more. But he's the tired one. They faced each other and he kissed her lips. He went to the table to reach the tablet.

"Damn, I forgot it in my study room."

"I���ll get it." She slipped off from the bed and he relaxed as he watched her walked n.a.k.e.d outside their room. They are the ones in the house so they could walk around n.a.k.e.d.

<><><><>

Kelsi locked the balcony first. Then she searched for the tablet. She stopped after seeing that word. She looked down at the doc.u.ment and reached it. She suddenly felt a pang of pain in her chest where her heart is located. Her hands shake. She sniffled and put it down and hid it in the envelope after reading it.

She wiped her tears and inhale. She wiped it again and again for it to stop. Then, she took the tablet pressed a smile, and went back to the room. She smiled at him.

"Here you go." She gave it to him.

"Thank you."

She lay down and pulled the cover to her bed. She turned back from him and closed her eyes trying to stop those tears away.

"You are tired huh." He mumbled and kissed her temple and he lay down to sleep.

She cried silently. She gently turned to him and he's sleeping and snoring a little. She left the bed and went to the bathroom to cry there. She rubbed her chest as she remembered every good thing that he did. She already loved him and she has a weak heart.

Kelsie thought about the divorce paper. He gave her things that would benefit her. From money to house and car and then any job that she wanted. She'll have a monthly allowance from him too and after the divorce. She will not contact him ever again.

The whole night, she stayed there until she is unable to cry anymore. She washed her face and then went back to bed.

Kelsie watched him sleep and she moved closer to him and reached his lips. She never complained to him because she already loves him. What is there to complain about? He's giving everything to her. Including her mother's medical needs. 

"I love you," She whispered and she lay on his chest and put his arms around her to warm her.

She'll get very cold during nights when he left. So, she wanted to have his warmth as long as he's still there. It might too much. If she only could ask him to never leave her. She will do everything for him. She will cook and be his maid. In exchange, she wants him to stay.

<><><><>

The maid Jasmine came back to work three weeks after she takes leave. However, Cyra's files started going missing two weeks when Jasmine is back to work. But it's only Butler Samson who went in and out of her room. So, she had no choice but to make a decision.

Their graduation is tomorrow and he already cleaned up everything for her and prepare everything for her. She then called him and he approached her.

"Yes, Lady Cyra?"

"Files started disappearing from my room."

He looked at her calmly.

"I know that you stole it. I have cameras around my room. I want you to leave right away." She said.

"Lady Cyra~~ I don't know what you are talking about."

"You heard me. Pack up and leave."

Butler Samson looked down at his shoes and he nodded.

"Don't make any food for me anymore. And I would like to remind you about the confidentiality that you sign."

Butler Samson nodded and he left. Cyra sipped on her tea and she looked outside the window of her room. She also told the knight to cancel the maid. Butler Samson left first and then Jasmine left next. Natalia arrived home and she burst into her room.

"Did you cancel Butler Samson and Jasmine?"

"Yes." She said casually.

"Why?"

"He stole my files."

"He didn't! Did you even check his things?"

"It's gone." Cyra stood and she went to her secret vault and gave the files to her. "This is the original. But the drafts are needed. The nanomites formula is also with them."

Natalia exhaled and massage her forehead.

"Dress up. Graduation will start soon."

"I won't go. Just take my diploma. I'm staying here to start packing.'

"You are so, so stubborn!" Natalia exclaimed to her and left.

Ashton will here soon to help them. She didn't want to leave the penthouse anymore. Not until everything are clear.

Natalia goes to her graduation and her parents are there of course. Then, later, they will be leaving for Stanford for Nate's graduation, so they are packing up.

<><><><>

Ashton took the files that Butler Samson had. He didn't understand why he would risk such a thing for Lady Cyra. He noticed the bloodstain from his arm but he said that he's fine. He checked Tucker's injuries. The knife that cut him is poisonous as it started getting purple.

Ashton took the nanomites formula and he injected it into him.

"Why?" Tucker asked.

"That is poison. I can't let you die. I also called the Knight team. They will be here." Ashton mumbled.

"Go to lady Cyra. Leave me here." Butler Samson said. "She's in more danger than I am."

"Damn, you are still thinking about her after she kicked you out."

"She didn't know about my mission." He mumbled as he closed his eyes. "They will still go after her to have a perfect ingredient of nanomites. Everything they have is purely drafts and errors. They can't have it."

"Why?" Ashton asked.

"I can say more." He mumbled.

Ashton pulled out his phone and called Natalia. But she's probably walking on the stage at the moment.

"Tsk." Ashton stood.

"Go to her now." Butler Samson said and he nodded and left Samson there. He held a gun with him. Then Ashton ran to the penthouse.

He stopped when everything is upside down.

"Lady Cyra!" He shouted. He knocked on her door. "Lady Cyra!"

It opened, and she is sitting on her chair.

"What happened?"

"They attack the penthouse."

"Are you okay?"

"Yes." She nodded. "They can't get in here. Even if they break my window." She said and looked at men at the window trying to break it. Cyra closed the door. Ashton takes out his gun and waits for the agents to respond.

"We are leaving."

Cyra put her bulletproof jacket on and stared at the people who are trying to get in the window.

She raised her middle finger at them and smirked.
