Chapter 116 - Mr. Landlord

"Hello."

"Hello, Nina, where are you? As Nina Anderson get off the bus, she got a call from Mr Mark San.

" I just got off the bus. Where are you right now?"Nina Anderson asked.

"I am waiting outside of your house for a long time already. Did not you tell me that you come back home at this time?"

"Oh. I am sorry.I am late as today a few customers arrived at the last moment. I will reach there within ten minutes. Please wait a little bit more."Nina Anderon replied and hung up the call.

She walked to her home as fast as she can.

"I am here. Sorry for keeping you waiting for a long time."Nina Anderson said in a guilty tone and opened the door of the house.

"It's ok Nina. You need not say sorry. I can wait for you forever."Mr Mark San said with a smile.

"Mark, don't try to speak in a flirtatious way. You know what would be the result of that.I don't want you to wait for me forever."Nina Anderson rolled her eyes and said.

"Ok, ok. Don't be serious. I will not say a word more about waiting for you. I know you will kick me out if I do so. Isn't it?"Mr. Mark San laughed and said.

"Yes. You know me well. Now come in and sit anywhere. I am going to change my clothes first. You just wait for some time. After that, we will have dinner."Nina Anderson said.

"Ok. You go. I will set the table in the meantime. I have bought all your favourite foods."

"Ok. I will be here soon."She said and left.

Mr Mark San brought plates and glasses and set the table. He was very happy that day as he got the chance to have dinner with her.

"Wow, what a  tempting aroma! Have you bought steak also? Oh my God! Are all these from my favourite restaurant?"Nina Anderson came back and said happily.

"Yes. Come and eat. I have bought everything from your favourite restaurant. Now let's start. I am very hungry."Mr Mark San said and took some food on a plate and forwarded it towards Nina Anderson.

"Thank you ."She said happily and about to have a bite but stopped to hear someone opened the front door. She looked at the door worriedly. It was James Thomson, who was glaring at them dangerously. She lowered her gaze.

"Who are you? How can you enter someone else's house like that?" Mr Mark San got up from the chair and asked angrily.

"I am her....."

"H.......he is my l......landlord."James Thomson was about to reply but stopped by Nina Anderson. James Thomson stared at her angrily. He forwarded towards the dining table and have a look at the food kept at the table. Mr Mark San was staring at him suspiciously.

"So you two are enjoying dinner! Good job Miss Nina! I thought you were really very busy."He said in a cold tone.

"Mr. Landlord, of course, she is very busy, but it does not mean that she would not have her food. Isn't it? If you want to have dinner then please join us. If not you should not glare at us like that. She is only your tenant, not your property that you can speak to her rudely."Mr. Mark San said in a stern tone.

"Did I ask about your opinion about how should I talk to her? I don't think that you are in a position to advise me about that.I can talk to anyone as I wish.I need not your advice in this matter."James Thomson said in the same cold tone.

"Mr Landlord, don't go overboard. Nina, how can you live in a house with such a rude man?"Mark San was angrier now.

"Oh, so am I going overboard? You are having dinner at my house without my permission. Don't you have any common sense?"

"Wh......what did you said?"Mr. Mark San reached near James Thomson asked loudly.

"I told you that you can not come into my house without my permission. Now what? Are you going to kill me?"James Thomson also said in an angry tone.

Nina Anderson coughed nervously to see the situation getting worse. She could not understand exactly why these two are fighting.

'What happened to them today! Why both of them showing anger to each other?'Nian Anderson thought and looked at the men worriedly.

"Mark, please calm down. You need not get angry. Please have a seat first. And you just returned from work. Should not you go to your room first to get changed? Let us have dinner peacefully. You can come back after wash up and have dinner with us if you want."Nina Anderson stood in middle and said.

"I don't want to."James Thomson said in an angry tone and left the room hurriedly.

"How arrogant is he! Nina, why did you agreed to live here with this rude and ill- mannered ba****d? Why did not you tell me that you need a place to live peacefully?"Mr. Mark san asked worriedly and sat down on a chair. Nina Anderson smiled to hear her friend.

"Mark. It is not what you are thinking. He is not that bad. He just....."

"Nina, you need not be scared. You can live in my apartment.It has more than ten rooms and all rooms are empty.I am telling you. You should not live here with him anymore."Mr. Mark San stopped Nina Anderson in mid sentences and said worriedly.

"Mark. I am fine.I am telling you . He is not that bad.I have been with him for a long ...."She was about to tell something but stopped to remember something.

"What.....what did you say just now? Did you say that you have been living with that ruthless man for a long time?"Mr. Mark San asked in a shocked tone.

"N....no.I ...I did not .I...I just trying to say that he is not that bad.I am very hungry. Let us have our food."Nina Anderson said hurriedly and started to eat. Mr Mark san looked at her suspiciously and started to have his food.

"Thank You Mark for the delicious food. Next time we will go to that restaurant together.I really missed the delicious food of that restaurant all these years. Thank you for reminding me of the food of our college time. Now, it is already late. You should leave now."Nina Anderson said with a smile.

"Ok. But are you sure that you will be fine here alone?"He asked worriedly.

"Of course I would be fine. You leave now. Good night."Nina Anderson said with a smile.

"Ok.then.I am leaving. Please take care . And don't forget to call me if he does something."

"Ok. I will. Now leave."She said and closed the door and sighed in relief.

"Thank God! Everything has stopped in time. I was really scared."She mumbled and left the living room.

"It is late already. I should go to sleep."She mumbled again and forwarded towards her room. But she stopped as she reached near James Thomson's room. She looked at the closed door of the room and thought something.

She knocked at the door of his room after thirty minutes.

"Mr Thomson, please open the door."She called from outside.

"What do you want?"She heard James Thomson's angry voice from inside.

"Mr Thomson, you have not had your dinner yet. I have cooked some food for you. Please come out and have it."Nina Anderson said.

"I don't want to. You need not worry about me."

"Mr Thomoson, you are being childish. You should come out and have food now. If you don't want to come out and have it, then I will not force you anymore."Nina Anderson said and about to leave the place, but stopped to see James Thsomon came out.

"Wait, I will have my dinner, but you have to sit with me there."James Thomson said and forwarded towards the dining table.

"Mr Thomson, you are not a little kid. You can have your food alone. And I have already had my dinner. So, there is no reason for me to sit there with you."Nina Anderson said and forwarded towards her room.

"Miss Nina.I have to discuss something important with you."She looked at the man as she hears his words.

"About what?"She asked confusedly and reached near him.

"About some terms and conditions of living in this house."James Thomson replied arrogantly.

"What is it? I am living in this house for a long time already. But I had never heard about it."

"Miss Nina, as the owner of this house, has changed, is it not normal that you have to go through some terms and conditions? Come sit here. We should discuss it properly."
