Nathan slipped!
“Ahh!” Nathan was caught off guard and collapsed immediately.
As he fell, Nathan’s hand touched the mung beans and red beans that were placed under the sun to dry amidst the chaos. The two dustpans fell onto the ground, causing the beans to be scattered all over the floor. As for Nathan’s buttocks, they were hurting even more after the fall!
“Mr. Miller! Are you okay?!” Xavia walked forward anxiously as she reached out her hand to help him up.
Nathan rolled his eyes at her. Wasn’t her question just nonsense? Why didn’t she fall down instead and see if she would be okay then?
As he was still in pain, he caught a glimpse of the pile of green mung beans and red beans on the ground, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
There was something for her to do! There was something for her to do!
His feeling of pain disappeared in an instant as he quickly stood up and said, “I wanted to ask you to come over and collect these beans just now. This is the little master’s favorite whole grain. You should separate them!”
Oh my god! Separate them? Was he certain that he wasn’t trying to make things difficult for her? Most importantly, didn’t Nathan just fall down? Why did he still look so happy even after he fell?
Xavia couldn’t figure it out, but she also felt that it would not be right for her to ask him about it. “Okay. You can go and get busy then.”
Nathan smiled. He was finally at ease as he left.
There were so many beans and they were so small. He was afraid that it would be a very difficult task to separate all of them. Chairman Talton would have already left by the time she was done separating the beans.
But the young master actually minded it so much when Miss Lockhart interacted with Stefan. Coming from a man’s perspective, was he certain that this wasn’t jealousy at all?
…
Xavia didn’t know about Nathan’s trick at all. She simply thought about Maison who liked eating mung beans and red beans. Besides that, these mung beans and red beans were all very fresh and full. They must have been bought at a high price, so Xavia didn’t dare to be sloppy. She picked all the mung beans and red beans up from the ground before she began separating them one by one.
Separating these beans took a long time.
The life of wealthy people was really simple and boring…
