I Quit Being a StepMother Novel

Chapter 101 Chapter 101 +25 BONUS Half a minute later , Rhea heard footsteps approaching again . Annoyed , she opened her eyes . " Are you ... " The words froze in her throat . It was George . He was dressed in a sharp suit . Standing tall and poised , he exuded a calm and serious demeanor . The clean cut of his short hair gave him a trace of unruliness that didn't quite fit the image of a man in power . George's gaze was calm as he asked , " Did you go through with it already ? " As he spoke , Nathan appeared from behind him . Rhea's chest tightened . " Nathan ...

" He walked over to the bed and wrapped her in a hug . Tears came rushing out before Rhea could stop them . Her shoulders shook as she cried . " I thought we said no more tears . " Nathan sighed . He let her cry for a while before she finally looked up . " What are you guys doing here ? " They hadn't just come . They had heard her yelling earlier , from the corner right outside the room . Nathan glanced at George . His gaze held a flicker of something dangerous . " We heard you fell and came last minute. I'm heading out with George to buy you some food .

Get some rest first , " Nathan said expressionlessly . Rhea didn't think much of it . The two men walked out of the postpartum recovery center , one behind the other . Suddenly , Nathan stopped and turned . " What the hell was that ? " George raised a brow . " Don't play dumb . Rhea said that she loves you , and something is going on between the two of you ? What the hell's going on ? George , I treated you like a brother ... " George could only let out a helpless sigh . " She was clearly trying to piss off Carter . " Still , a faint smile tugged at the corner of his lips .

1/2 Chapter 101 +25 BONUS Nathan calmed down and stepped back in front of him . " George , you should know what you can or cannot do . If anything's going on , I expect you to give me a heads - up . " George lit a cigarette and asked , " Give you a heads - up about what ? " Nathan stared at him . The more he thought about it , the more it bugged him . They were supposed to fly overseas . But just after leaving the office and arriving at the airport , George suddenly brought him to Colburn . If anyone knew how selfish George really was , it was Nathan .

George never did anything without personal gain . No woman had ever gotten anything from him , especially love . Nathan asked , " How did you find out about Rhea before I did ? " " I know people around here . " Nathan remembered that George was currently working with Scott Group . However , he still wasn't fully convinced . Even so , after thinking it through , he chose to trust George . He didn't think that George would go that low . Nathan turned to leave . " I'm going to grab some of her favorite snacks . You stay here and keep an eye on things .

Make sure that Jamison guy doesn't come near Rhea again . " To Nathan , Carter didn't even deserve to be named . George returned to Rhea's room in the postpartum recovery center . When Rhea saw him walk back in , she had already calmed down . " You're back already ? " George sat down leisurely . " Nathan went off alone . " Their eyes met unexpectedly . For some reason , that half - smile on George's face made her cheeks feel warm . She wasn't stupid , and she quickly picked up on things . She had a strong sense that he had heard what she said earlier . " Um ...

" Rhea's expression turned serious . " How long did you and Nathan stand there ? " George lifted his gaze and parted his lips . " Are you trying to figure out if I heard what you said ? "
