Chapter 0014
Im too busy for this nonsense.
What? Nonsense? Youre the one at fault here! How can you be such a miser? Dont you know misers are as despicable as rats in the gutters?
Go to someone else if youre going to act all crazy. Hansel wondered what the hell she was talking about.
Tina couldnt care less about what hed said. Miranda has been taking care of you, both around the house and in the bedroom. How can you not give her any allowance? She even has to work as hired help for income! Wont you feel embarrassed if word of this got out?
There was a pause before Hansel asked, Who are you talking about?
Miranda, of course.
What do you mean shes working as hired help?
Tina told him what shed seen. Youve gone overboard this time. Though shes sucking up to you, you cant just treat her like this-
Everything else she said after that fell on deaf ears.
All that occupied Hansels mind was that Miranda was now working as hired help to earn money. It seemed that she dared not use the 50 million dollars, even after cashing the check hed given her.
He loosened his tie as his gaze became more profound. He had an
indescribable expression.
Ha! Miranda had left without hesitation, so hed thought shed worked something out. But now, it turned out that she could barely survive without.
him.
Hans, what are you spaging out for? Its your turn, Sam reminded, pointing at the dice in Hansels hands.
Im leaving. Picking up his coat and car keys, Hansel turned to leave.
Werent you the one who suggested meeting up? Sam was dumbfounded.
Hansel replied, Not anymore. I have other matters to attend to.
Would Miranda finally beg him to take her home?
Hansel waited in his car. Other than two calls and a bunch of messages related to work, he hadnt received the call hed been waiting for. He decided to take action and drove toward Winters condo.
Miranda had no one to turn to in Duncherton City. Whenever theyd fought, shed gone to Winters. Hed picked her up from Winters place multiple times. As such, he didnt even need help from the navigation app to find Winters condo.
Hansel?
Just as Hansel got out of his car, someone called out his name. He turned to
see Winter holding a young mans arm. She seemed to be heading home.
What are you doing here? Winter eyed him warily.
Wheres Miranda?
What do you want?
Im asking you where Miranda is. He sounded impatient.
Winter was a bold and frivolous woman. Hansel had a bad impression of her. Hed reminded Miranda to stay away from Winter, lest she was influenced by the latters crude ways.
However, Miranda, whod always obeyed him, had defied him on this. Because of that, his impression of Winter had worsened.
Winter wasnt going to yield. Mister, just to be clear, you two have broken up. Who are you to demand her whereabouts?
Hansel smirked. And how many times have we broken up? Can you even keep count?
So what?
Theres no use stopping me from seeing her. Youre playing the bad guy in
vain After all, Miranda would beg to bury the hatchet in the end.
His arrogance and egoistic attitude angered Winter. Is Mimis dignity worth nothing to you? So much so that you think you can neglect her or call her back whenever you want to? You dont think of her as someone you should cherish since shes unimportant to you.
Hansel didnt want to listen to her nonsense. Ill look for her myself if you dont tell me where she is.
At that moment, the young man beside Winter, Marshall Gray, stepped forward and stood in Hansels way. Sir, its wrong to enter someones residence without permission.
Hansel didnt even spare him a glance. He merely cast a glare at Winter. Smirking, he nodded. I wont forget this. Still, theres no use stopping me. Shell eventually run back to me like an obedient lamb.
