Good Flattery
← Ch.081 | Ch.083 → |
James was shocked when Henry and Lisa got their salary doubled just because they called Nina Mrs. Shi. He called her Aunt Nina for so long, but John didn't give him anything. Why?
He was working himself sick trying to increase his allowance. He got his increase from three thousand to thirty thousand but it was quite the job taking Michelle away from Nina.
James was furious.
He felt like he was being unfairly treated but he didn't dare think of telling John that.
Henry noticed James stewing in his anger and decided to calm his mind by giving him some advice.
"James, maybe you should also consider flattery."
"Flattery? I've flattered Uncle John for what seems like all my life." He wasn't wrong. James did constantly flatter John, trying to be respectful.
"Flatter Mrs. Shi." John didn't need the flattery. Everyone who came into contact with him tried to get on his good side. There was almost a bombardment of compliments from every meeting. He was hardly short of it.
"Aunt Nina?" James was a little hesitant.

Nina only felt the warmth of the person behind her. Something appeared under her head, making her more comfortable. It was like a pillow that seemed to soothe her aching head.
Nina finally fell asleep. She began to dream deeply. In the forest, she met the elk that had taken her home. Its bright eyes were like stars and its antlers reflected in the water.
The wind blew, causing ripples in the water. In the light, a tall and handsome man reflected in the water as well.
It was John. He appeared in her dreams to bring her peace again.
"Sleep, my little girl." Seeing her toss and turn, frowning from time to time, John wanted to sleep with her to ease her discomfort.
Once, when Nina was drunk, she slept on his body. That night he realized that she only slept peacefully when he was there. He had to let her sleep on his chest the whole night.
John couldn't help but smile at the little girl sleeping in his arms. Not only did she like his face but also his body.
He also loved those aspects of her.
More than that, he loved everything about her.
