The Rise Of Nathalia Carter Chapter 791
Advertisement
Seeing Angelo like this, Patrick looked quite awkward. But he still held Angelo's shoulder and said, "You know, Angeline is now an actress. As her brother, I feel proud of her."
Hearing that, Angelo felt a headache. She wiped Patrick's arms and seriously said, "She's my sister!"
Seeing Angelo like this, Patrick was annoyed. But when he thought of Angeline, he gave an ingratiating expression, "Right. Your sister is my sister. How about you give me her number?"
"I don't have her number."
Patrick looked awkward when he heard Angelo, but he didn't want to give up, "Come on, brother. Here, eat a strawberry."
While Angelo was about to take over the strawberry from Patrick, Drake frowned. Then he stepped up and took the strawberry away when his hand touched Angelo's.
Sensing the coldness from Drake's hand, Angelo's face blushed at once. She looked away to cover her embarrassment. Drake ate strawberries calmly, but his ear blushed.
"Drake, I give it to Angelo. I can get some for you… if you want to eat."
Patrick wanted to accuse Drake but lowered his voice when he saw his cold gaze. Finally, he forced a smile and picked up a strawberry for Drake.
However, Drake just ignored him and said, "Go back to your room."
Patrick didn't dare to disobey Drake. "All right," he answered reluctantly. While getting up, he handed the strawberry to Angelo and made a pleading sign.
"Give me her number. Come on!"
Of course, Drake heard him and glimpsed him coldly. Seeing that, Patrick hurried upstairs.
Seeing that, Angelo couldn't help smiling. Casually, she was about to stuff the strawberry into her mouth when Drake suddenly took it away.
Somehow, he didn't want Angelo to eat anything from other men, even his brothers.

Finally, he stuffed the strawberry into his mouth, then he sat opposite Angelo calmly and picked up a piece of newspaper to read.
"You like strawberries, Drake?" Angelo asked gently after all these. Carefully, she picked up all the strawberries from the fruit plate in front of her and put them in front of Drake.
Looking at the strawberries, Drake frowned and raised to look at Angelo, who gave an ingratiating smile.
Seeing that, Drake picked up a strawberry and started to eat, and then he turned to the newspaper.
Seeing the strawberries disappear gradually, Angelo smiled and kept the habit of Drake inside.
When Drake finished the last strawberry, Angelo stood up.
"Where are you going?" he asked, squinting.
Angelo stopped to answer him, "I want to get some strawberries from the kitchen for you."
Drake's face darkened at her words, he wanted to say something but stopped when he saw Angelo's blushed face. Then he just lowered to read the newspaper.
Looking at his serious face, Angelo's heart raced. Somehow, she felt Drake was very handsome at this moment.
In the kitchen, she took some strawberries from the refrigerator and started to wash them. Hale saw that and asked, "Can you eat all of them, Mr. Angelo?"
"Drake eats with me."
With that, she put the strawberries into two plates and took them out. Looking at her back, Hale was confused, "Drake didn't like strawberries when he was young."
Then he followed Angelo out. Carefully, Angelo put one plate in front of Drake and stared at him.
When Drake finished reading the newspaper, he had eaten up all the strawberries. Seeing that, Hale was shocked. Did he misremember Drake's preference? He questioned himself inside.
At this point, Angelo pushed the plate of strawberry in front of her to Drake. On her face, there was still the ingratiating smile.

Drake, however, didn't seem to be happy about that. He put down the newspaper and turned to his study.
Angelo sensed the change of Drake and couldn't help but tremble a bit. Looking at his back, she was confused. But when she thought of the file, she had an idea.
Since Drake loved strawberries, she thought, this plate of strawberries could earn some time for her. So, she called Hale here and said, "Can you deliver this plate of strawberry to Drake's study, Hale?"
"Yes, Mr. Angelo," answered Hale. Then he picked up the plate and went to Drake's study. To avoid being suspected, Angelo stayed for a while before following up.
As she remembered, the important files were usually in Drake's bedroom. So she now wanted to go to Drake's bedroom to look for the file.
When he arrived at the door of Drake's bedroom, he heard the familiar cold voice, "I don't like strawberries."
It was indeed a shock to Angelo. She couldn't help thinking of Daisy's joking words, "Drake must love you, Angelo."
Then her face blushed. Did Drake eat the strawberries because of loving her? She wondered. The more she thought about it, the hotter her face became.
"I'm sorry, sir," apologized Hale, which reminded her of her purpose here.
Carefully, she opened the door and sneaked into the room. In the spot Drake usually kept files, she started to flip through.
"That's weird! Why did Drake put a wine bottle here? And without a cap?"
Angelo saw a wine bottle without a cap, feeling curious. But she knew her purpose here was to find the file.
"Not this."
"Not this."
***
One after another, Angelo flipped through the files but hadn't found the one she wanted. Now, she was kind of agitated.
Just then, Drake came with a pile of files. When he saw the opened door, he was confused.
Through the crack, he saw Angelo rummaging around. He thought of something and squinted.
"What are you doing?"
The question stopped Angelo's actions. "I'm screwed," she thought.
As the steps approached, she was panicked but suddenly saw the red wine there. She rolled her eyes, an idea occurred to her.
"Oh, I found you!"
She picked up the bottle and turned. When she saw Drake there, she gave a look of confusion and then hid the bottle behind, liking being caught stealing things.
"I… I don't take… anything, Drake," she said in a broken voice.

My World To Live
[Do Not Read this version, New FINAL version uploaded August 9th, 2021 as separate fiction, click to link here on RR. Essairyn had never felt truly alive on Earth. It felt like something was missing ever since she was born, but even after nearly 20 years of mundane living, she could never pinpoint what this or the emptiness in her heart was. Suddenly, she awakens in a grandiose, primordial forest and encounters both demons and spirits in a parallel world called Sol'h'meyr. She befriends, in particular, a sassy fox-spirit named Akari who just reincarnated after three millennia. Essairyn is an abnormal human with elemental powers, and Akari is being chased by those of her dark past. Together, they set out on an adventure in a world of magic, danger, mystery, and intrigue. But this not a game. That simple adventure is actually the modest beginnings in a chain of disruptions that tear even the dimensional fabric of time and space. No one, not even Essairyn, was who she thought she was. And not even the gods can change the destiny of the universes... A single promise shook eternity’s existence. — Fantasy || Adventure || Romance || Action || Mystery || Drama || Science Fiction — The My World To Live (MWTL) series, the alternative short name is Canaan, is comprised of three books symbolically named My World, To Live, and My World To Live. Two years prior, the entire story had been planned and detailed out from start to finish before actual writing. Thus, the story will never be dropped. While the genre is largely Fantasy, the book is comprised of many other elements including a School Life (Magic Academy) story portion. MWTL has a lot of scattered symbolism and allusions, hence, the mystery aspect. The science fiction elements progressively become more pronounced, and the slow romance is a late bloomer. The female lead is strong and independent, and her backstory and identity unravel as drivers of the plot. Expect lots of action/fighting throughout and scattered philosophical and psychological themes arising. It's a human journey to find the essence of one's living and purpose. What kind of world do I wish to live for? Any feedback is greatly appreciated. I hope to share the journey with you~! Canaan's Original and New Covers: If you're curious about my art and the various covers I made for this series and other authors, I have a RR thread that makes free covers and shows art processes. [October 1, 2020 Notice: Hello, I aplogize to all followers for suddenly taking an extended hiatus. Life threw a lot at my face and then the pandemic happened, so I hadn't been able to write until around the last month when I decided to challenge myself and finish the first book in this series. I am ok now, and thank you for your patience and understanding. No words can express how much every reader means to me. RR was the first writing platform that I ever felt accomplished to any small degree, so I am forever grateful to it. Multiples changes have been made since this final revision and writing of the ending, so please see the latest chapter detailing the update. This also includes my decision to submit this story to the 2020 Wattys contest (the deadline was Sept 30th). That means I will not be posting the updated version of this story on here until the contest is over (since I doubt I'll win anyway lol). And so, if you want to read the full, now completed (woohoo!) story, please go to my Wattpad. Thank you once again, and wishing you all the very best health and happiness! FINAL UPDATE, March 7, 2021: The complete story has been re-posted after the Wattys. This version that was on Wattys is the one being re-posted. However, the Final Version (which will be on a separate book from this to remain organized, and is technically the fifth version of the story xD) will be released May 2021. For more information, please read this update linked here. Thank you to all readers for taking this two year journey with me!

Blood Seekers -- The Monolith
Blood Seekers - Book 1, is now on Amazon, including the final chapters not posted here! https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07MYJ5ZRC “You will die!” That's what the developers of Blood Seekers promised them... The most challenging MMO ever created—that’s how they advertised it. Taglines like, “Not your granddaddy’s game,” and, “Only for the hardest of the hardcore,” had gamers going crazy. Set in a gothic, Lovecraftian world, with fully realized A.I. NPCS, gamers were desperate to get their hands on the new game and dive in, and Clay was one of them. It was going to be tough, but he was ready for it. What he wasn’t ready for, was countless players having their minds hijacked and being transformed into mindless, hostile creatures filled with nothing but hate who killed anyone on sight. They called them the Bloodless. Clay’s best and only friend, Rey, moved across the country she was twelve, but they kept in touch online, playing countless games together, and when Blood Seekers was released, they were both ready to step up to the plate and face the new challenge together. But now, Rey has been taken by the plague, her mind held hostage as one of the Bloodless. A mysterious black monolith has appeared at the center of the highest level zone in the game, a place no one has even come close to. Some say it will provide us with answers. Others say it will only lead to more questions. Who’s behind all this? Why are people’s minds being taken? Will we ever get to bring them back? How many more will be lost if we stay logged in? Nothing is certain, but if there’s any chance that reaching the monolith will bring Rey back back, then Clay will do everything he can to reach it. This is Book 1 in a new series from Stephen Roark! I will be posting chapters here until the book is done and published on Amazon!
