Chapter 471 Provoking Nathan



Day Fifty-Five...

~~*****~~

'Oh sh!t! Nathan overheard our conversation. How am I supposed to explain this to him? I have offended him once more.'

Nathan failed to control his anger. He felt like Jane was backstabbing him. How did she know about his relationship with Abigail? And who was the guy she was referring to?

"We are not pretending. We both like each other." Nathan declared to them, a chilly aura emanating from him.

Mr. Hiroshi darted his gaze back and forth between Jane and Nathan. He could sense the heavy tension between the two.

'Why do I feel like these two are not getting along?' Mr. Hiroshi eyed them suspiciously.

"Jane... I can attest to you that your sister and Nathan are in a serious relationship." Mr. Hiroshi became the mediator between the two. He tapped his daughter's shoulder.

"He even got jealous of me as he is so possessive of her," Mr. Hiroshi added, letting out a soft chuckle.

Jane could only bite her lower lip. 'It was me, Pa... Not Abi.'

"Okay." Jane simply said, looking away. She couldn't bear to see Nathan's deathly glare.

"You have to apologize," Nathan insisted. His blood was still boiling in rage. He was easily annoyed by Jane. He felt like his relationship with Abigail would be affected by her. What if Phantomflake would influence her sister to break up with him?

"Why do I need to apologize?" Jane just feigned ignorance. She just told her father the truth. She didn't want to apologize and admit her mistake.

"For talking bad about me and your sister." Nathan maintained his cold expression.

Jane exhaled deeply and faced Nathan. She wanted to say something but she held herself back. She just bowed her head but she didn't apologize with words.

Nathan: "..."

Both men were stupefied when they heard Jane's last remarks. They watched her in awe, trying to figure out if she was joking or not.

Not yet satisfied, Jane said another word. "Nathan is too old for my sister. We match each other ideally. Nate is 30 while I'm 27."

Nathan's expression turned colder and darker than before. He felt like Jane was making fun of him in front of her father. She was aware that he couldn't be rude to her while Mr. Hiroshi was around.

'This cunning woman! She is taking this chance to provoke me. This is not funny at all.' Nathan clenched his teeth.

Meanwhile, Mr. Hiroshi just smiled awkwardly while eyeing his daughter helplessly. He didn't know why Jane was acting like this. Was she just kidding to tease Nathan?

'Why did she have to emphasize the age gap between Abigail and Nathan? I can see that Nathan was offended by her words.' Mr. Hiroshi scratched the back of his neck.

"You are not my type. Even if you are the only woman left in this world, I won't fall for you." Nathan said confidently with conviction.

Jane smirked at him tauntingly and said, "Are you sure? You might eat your own words later on."

"Hey. Hey. Don't argue. We are in front of Abi. Jane, stop joking already. Your sister won't be happy to see the two of you fighting." Mr. Hiroshi could no longer take this. Jane was acting strangely.

But Jane was so determined to accomplish her mission. "Dad. I'm not fighting with Nathan... I'm flirting with him."

"Cough! Cough!" Mr. Hiroshi choked on his saliva while Nathan was at a loss for words. Jane's shamelessness was on another level.

"Watch your words, Miss Jane. Your behavior is inappropriate. Don't covet your sister's man. I hate women who are like that!" Nathan spoke up after he recovered from his stupor.

"I'm not coveting my sister's man because you are not hers," Jane bravely said. "The man she truly loves is Dave," she added with emphasis.

Nathan was almost losing his temper. Jane's words offended him once more. He thought she was biased because they were enemies.

Mr. Hiroshi grabbed her and whispered, "My dear, you went overboard. You angered Nathan. Stop provoking him. Your sister won't be happy to hear this from you."

Jane heaved a sigh of defeat. "Let's just wait for my sister to wake up. You will find out that I'm telling the truth once she regains consciousness. She will look for Dave... not Nathan."

Nathan could no longer take it. He turned around and stormed out of the room. 'I hate that woman!'
