Stay Around You Now And Forever

Chapter 211 I Pushed Her Away

Although Emily had left the gymnasium, her cheeks were still red as if it was burning with flames.

Lois kept showed great enthusiasm in asking Emily questions.

“What did Young Master Hunter mean by saying that? Why did he say that he will have a talk with you when he comes back in the evening?”

“What’s your relation with him? What will you talk about? About work? Or about some private affairs? So you two have connections in private?”

“Emily, are you really the second daughter of the Gale family? That ‘Gale family’?”

“Oh my, Emily, are you really Young Master Hunter’s fiancée? How could it be possible?”

“Oh my gosh, Emi, come on, please tell me that you’re wearing a mask made by human skin and that this is not your true face. Quickly, tell me that Young Master Hunter doesn’t have such a bad taste!”

“Is it an arranged marriage to unite the two groups? But is the Gale family eligible to be connect with the Jackson family through marriage?”

“Oh Emi, please, please tell me. What do you mean by keeping silent?”

Emily stopped and turned her head to look at him, “What did Young Master Hunter say? Do I have anything to do with Young Master Hunter?”

“But he said he will have a talk with you when she returns home.”

Lois was standing behind Emily when Hunter said the sentence, so she had heard it clearly!

Sally lowered her head and bit her lower lip, not daring to say something.

Emily suddenly smiled, “Well… I think that there must be something wrong with your hearing. What Young Master actually said was ‘I’ll find a chance to talk to you in private’.”

“How could it be possible?” Lois frowned and glared at her, “Emi, stop hiding it from me. You’re the second daughter of the Gale family, and I’ve found it out.”

“Since you’ve found it out, why are you asking these questions now?”

Emily really wanted to cast her eyes heavenward at Lois. She found her irksome at the moment.

“But, Emi…”

“Well, you have too many questions that Emi almost has a mental breakdown.” Sally stopped Lois and continued, “Let’s talk about it when we come back to our office.”

“All right.” Although Lois had a lot of questions, she was clear that it was not a wise choice to talk about this outside.

Oh yeah, she also had a lot of questions concerning Aryan’s matter.

“Yeah, let’s come back to our office first.”

They then left the Skyler University and headed towards the building where their office was located in.

The countless questions in their minds hadn't affected their good mood.

After all, they had made a clean sweep today!

“I want to have hot pot!”

They decided to celebrate it with a meal of spicy hot pot.

“Okay, and I want some beers! We must drink until we are thoroughly drunk today!”

Hot pot and beers was just a perfect match!

With the plan, then immediately went back to their company to put down some things, and then had a rest in it. When Aryan came back, they set out to the most popular restaurant of Sichuan hot pot.

Emily was so generous today that she even booked a private room for today’s celebration.

Generally, there was a minimum charge for a private room.

“Aryan, what had happened to you? I’m still confused now and I still can't believe that you’ve really come back.”

Lois opened the beer bottles for everyone and got straight to the point.

“Flora Hans said… said that you not only had dinner with Nina Marsh at that night, but… but also went to hotel…”

It was a bit embarrassed for her to utter the following words. Nevertheless, she was really curious about it.

Did Aryan and Nina really had… But if that was the case, Terry wouldn't have come back today.

“She did treat me a dinner and bring me to a hotel.”

Terry had always been an incommunicative person, but tonight, maybe it was because he had drunk some beers, he took the initiative to tell them what had happened.

“I was once a member of … their studio. And my pen name was Raphael.”

“Oh my god!” Joe’s hand trembled and the beer bottle at his hand almost fell down.

“You are Raphael?” Joe asked in disbelief. But at a second thought, he accepted the news. NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

Raphael was a legendary person.

One of his comics had brought great reputation to Nina’s studio.

But after that, he stopped posting new comics as if he had disappeared from the world.

Nevertheless, all comic enthusiasts had heard of Raphael.

At that year, his comics, Crazy Days, went virus regardless of its featureless book title.

This exactly happened one and a half years ago when the domestic comic industry was in a downturn. Nevertheless, Even the adaptation of Crazy Days had generated a profit of several millions.

This was a miracle in the comic circle.

It was the only comic book that had achieved such a great success.

It was also one of the comic books of the ‘premium program project’ of that comic APP.

Let’s make it clear that comic books in those APPs used to be free in the past.

It was inconceivable that it could make a profit of several millions during the preliminary stage of the premium program of the whole online comic industry.

“Why did you quit your career later?” Sally was also curious about it.

After all, she and Joe had admired Raphael as their idol for a long time.

“Actually, I was still creating comics during the next six months after the completion of Crazy Days. It was not my last comic book.”

Aryan looked down at the hot pot to hide the sadness in his eyes.

Emily suddenly understood something.

“Raphael hadn’t published any new works after the completion of Crazy Days, while Nina’s studio, which used to be in obscurity, suddenly became popular two months later.”

“If my memory is correct, I remember that they also published a popular comic book. But I forget the book title.”

She glanced at Aryan and had an impulse to hug him, purely for comforting him.

“So that comic was not created by Nina. It was you, Nina’s boyfriend, who created it, right?”

Aryan didn't reply it and tacitly approved it.

“So, you had been staying in Nina's Studio since then and backing her without asking for any reward?”

Sally suddenly felt sorry for Aryan. This fool was really spoony, wasn’t he?

When he fell in love with Nina, he was just seventeen or eighteen years old. Boys at this age were always bot-blooded, high-spirited and vigorous.

But Aryan could leave the fame and wealth behind for that girl and give her all as possible as he could.

He must have loved Nina so much; otherwise, who would have done this?

Aryan was still silent. He simply picked up the beer bottle and gulped down several mouthfuls of beers.

Other persons present didn't cut in and waited for the following story quietly.

Aryan finally put down the bottle and glanced around them, “I caught her sleeping with a boss of an animation company.”

Sally and Lois gasped, while Emily showed no expressional change as if she had guessed it.

“Later, I left Nina’s Studio and hadn't drawn for almost a year since then.”

Aryan tightened his grip at the beer bottle.

Although he appeared to be calm when talking about the past, everyone present could sense the anger beneath his composure from his whitened knuckles.

“The night before, Nina treated me a dinner and she even had booked a hotel room in advance. When we came to the hotel, she stripped her clothes and tried to seduce me.”

The other persons remained silent and some gossipy girls subconsciously leaned forward for the following story.

Aryan gulped down two mouthfuls of beers again and continued, “I pushed her away.”

Aryan could clearly hear the sighs of relief of the three girls and chuckled, “What? Even if I’ve accepted it, it would not cause any loss to me, would it?”
