Echelon Systems
Party Part 2

The show seems to have just started when Nathan walks in. To coincide with that Nathan can see the star of the event tonight who is down the stairs.

Nathan couldn't take his eyes off the beautiful-looking Marsella with her long dress and thin makeup on her face.

But after Marsella had gone down he could not see her anymore because of some people who blocked his view.

In the end Nathan decided to drink a glass of Wine while eating the dishes that had been provided while waiting for the crowd to subside.

"If you knew this would be the case, I should have bought a nicer outfit yesterday..." Nathan muttered that he felt pessimistic after seeing other people's clothes there.

Nathan can only look back and forth because no one he knows but Dion, Angel, and Marsella.

On the other hand Marsella seemed to look for the existence of someone among the crowd who was none other than Nathan.

But after sweeping his eyes he still had not found Nathan's whereabouts and this made him feel quite sad to even think the man would never come.

A beautiful woman who was next to Marsella, he accidentally saw the look on Marsella's face that looked sour and noticed that the woman was looking for someone.

"Are you looking for that man, Marsella?" Ask the beautiful woman who is none other than Anna the mother of Marsella herself.

Marsella instantly becomes moody and tries to cover her up. "If I say no, will you believe me?"

Anna who saw her daughter moody immediately stroked Marsella's back. "You rest easy he's coming, maybe he's just late..."

Marsella nodded and immediately started her show which was attended by her friends, business associates, and some of her acquaintances.

When the birthday bread cut event some men there seemed to be expecting the first piece from Marsella, Dion was no exception.

After cutting his birthday bread Marsella returned to look for Nathan's whereabouts, and his gloomy look changed when he saw the man drinking a glass of Wine behind the crowd.

Marsella then walked over to Nathan with a piece of her birthday cake and made some people in front of her misunderstand.

Dion who saw Marsella walking towards her immediately released Angel's hand from her arm and confidently greeted her.

This obviously makes Angel feel upset and glanced towards Marsella with hatred towards the woman.

"Happy Birthday Miss Marsella-" Before Dion finished her words she was instantly made disappointed that Marsella passed her by.

Dion's face immediately became upset and he felt embarrassed when he saw that Marsella was not approaching him but Nathan.

Nathan himself did not realize that Marsella was now standing right in front of him because he was looking sideways at the pile of food on one of the tables.

But Nathan felt bad when people began to look at him when there was no one who ignored him.

How shocked Nathan when he realized Marsella now stands in front of him and makes him immediately move from the bench.

"Good night, Mr. Nathan..." Say hello to Marsella while smiling sweetly to Nathan.

Seeing Marsella who was smiling sweetly and looking polite to a man instantly made everyone in the hall become shocked as well as Anna.

Everyone including Anna herself has never seen Marsella be gentle to someone, especially men, because she will usually be mature and very away from things that smell romantic.

Anna, who had just seen Nathan for the first time, looked startled and became interested in him.

Back to Marsella and Nathan the two are now chatting casually even ignoring the people who are watching them.

"Oh yeah, whose cake did you bring?" Nathan asked while watching the cake in Marsella's hands.

"Ah yes I forgot, this is for you Mr Nathan!" Marsella said as she gave Nathan the first piece of her birthday cake.

Nathan happily accepts Marsella's cake and tries it. He himself did not know that the cake was the first piece and thought that the cake came from the dining table of the guests.

"You'd better greet them all and continue the show..." Nathan said as he looked at the guests who kept watching them.

Marsella who got carried away while talking to Nathan became forgotten that this was his birthday and immediately began to greet his guests.

After Marsella went to greet the guests invited Nathan who was eating the cake was approached by Angel, because the woman's lover was gathering to greet Marsella.

"I didn't expect you to know that rich lady..." Said Angel while watching Nathan from top to bottom cynically.

Nathan lifted his face and looked at Angel with no interest whatsoever even though the woman was wearing a slightly exposed dress.

"Have we met before?" Nathan asked in a cold tone that made Angel become annoyed.

Angel laughed in disbelief that Nathan had forgotten about it after all they had done together for five years.

Feeling that the conversation will last a long time and did not want to linger with Angel, Nathan immediately asked the point.

"What do you want?" Ask Nathan.

Angel smiled faintly and said, "I want us to go back to what we used to be. Take it easy I will win our living expenses later and I will also leave the man. How's it?"

Hearing Angel's words made Nathan want to laugh. Without saying a word Nathan left Angel.

Seeing Nathan disregarding his offer clearly made Angel feel annoyed. Even so he will not give up and target Nathan to return with him again.

After leaving Angel, Nathan is now seen enjoying the night breeze on the balcony while looking at the park in Marsella's Mansion.

"Reverse, that's right..." Nathan muttered as he recalled Angel's previous words that made him want to laugh.

Nathan's mood has now been destroyed after meeting Angel and Dion at Marsella's birthday event that makes him want to go home soon.

Someone suddenly came up to Nathan and immediately patted his back which made the man become shocked and then turned around.

Nathan's eyes immediately opened wide when he found a beautiful woman who had a resemblance to Marsella.

"Who are you Miss?" Nathan asked while keeping his distance from the beautiful woman.

Hearing Nathan's words immediately the beautiful woman laughed softly while closing her mouth. "Miss? Am I that young? I'm Anna Marsella's parents, Mr. Nathan..."

'F*ck... Is he kidding me?' Nathan's inner self, who did not expect that the beautiful woman before him was Marsella's mother.

In terms of appearance it does have similarities, especially blonde hair and blue eyes sapphire. What distinguishes only the shape of Anna's body is much more mature than Marsella.

Despite not believing one hundred percent that the beautiful woman before him was Marsella's mother, in the end Nathan could only nod his head.

"I'm sorry for my disrespectful words earlier, ma'am..." Nathan said as he scratched his head that was not itchy from nervousness.

"Yes, I don't mind it and quite the opposite..." Reply Anna.

"Is there anything I can help you with, Miss Anna?" Ask Nathan.

"I was previously grateful to Mr. Nathan for helping our company from bankruptcy..." Anna said as she bowed her body slightly towards Nathan.

"Don't bend over and discuss it again. I feel bad, Madam..." Nathan's real words couldn't stand it when he saw Anna's chest.

Realizing that Nathan had noticed her made Anna smile thinly and watched the man warmly.

"You haven't changed at all as an adult, Nathan..." Said Anna.

"What do you mean?" Nathan asked who was confused by Anna's words because he had never known her before.

"Nothing seems like I'm just messing around, Hahaha..." Reply Anna.

Nathan, who saw Anna laughing, was confused by the woman, and he turned his gaze to Marsella, who was receiving gifts from several invited guests.

While watching Marsella accidentally Nathan sees a painting of a man holding a little girl on the wall.

Somehow when he saw the painting Nathan felt that the man there had a resemblance to him.

"Sorry Miss Anna, where did the painting come from?" Nathan asked as he pointed to the painting.

Anna immediately looked towards the painting that Nathan had pointed to. "Ah... The painting was a gift from one of my friends who came from Beijing China a few years ago. All I know is that the painting is from his parents..."

Nathan nodded and was still fixated on a painting very similar to him. This clearly made Nathan feel astonished and had the intention to meet the parents of Anna's acquaintances.

Feeling bad for being alone with a woman who has married and wants to go home Nathan decided to leave.

But before Nathan's departure, he gives Anna a box containing a birthday present and a small wooden box.

"Madam Anna, I'm presenting a gift to Marsella for not being able to linger here because there's still a lot of work..." Nathan Said.

"Thank you, Mr. Nathan, for taking your time..." Reply Anna who then gave a kiss on Nathan's cheek.

Nathan is surprised by the kiss given by Anna but even so he tries to think positively and immediately leaves the party.

When Nathan had gone Anna touched his lips and smiled thinly as if he had got something interesting for her.
