Mr. President’s

At NL Towers, Oliver was in the middle of a meeting with his managers when his phone rang. Thinking it was one of the other business partners. he checked the caller ID, prepared to excuse his secretary, Paul, to answer it.

Just like Nathan, Oliver never had a female secretary, and his only focus was moving the Company forward. When he saw the call was from Nathan he cleared his throat and instantly answered it

He could never be too busy to speak to Nathan or Mercedes. “Nathan.”

As all the managers heard the name, they understood the reason why the president had to answer the call. Nathan was the chairman of NL Towers.

Oliver never thought that his mentor and brother–in–law would have time to propose something so ridiculous like a blind date. It was farfetched and unlike him. “What?”

Oliver expressed his shock as Nathan answered from the end of the line. “Please don’t blame me. Your sister is very worried about you. Just one blind date, and I will never poke my nose into your romantic life again.”

Oliver understood Nathan’s situation, Mercedes had asked him a few times if there was any woman in his life, but he always responded with a abrupt no, adding that his only focus was moving the company forward.

“I must s

I say that I wasn’t expecting something like this from you.”

“It’s unlike me, but I will do anything for my wife,” Nathan responded from the end of the line, adding. “her happiness is all that matters to me. Not even the kids come close to her. After all, they will have their own families in the future.”

Oliver smiled. Ever since Nathan came into their lives, Mercedes has been the happiest made Mercedes his priority

Oliver was irritated to go meet some strange woman but could not do much about it. How could he offend the man who loved him like a brother? He was even doing it for his wife, Oliver’s only sister,

“Please give it your all. If things don’t go well, don’t bother to inform me, but if it does, then please let me be the first to know about it, Nathan stated. Oliver knew it wasn’t going to work out and was already planning to spend his Sunday with his nieces and nephews

“I will keep that in mind, so if you don’t mind, I will return to my emerg

“I won’t disturb you again, Nathan assured him before ending the call. Oliver continued with his meeting,

When he was closing from work, he received a call from his best friend, Andrew. “It’s Friday night. Meet me at the club.

Oliver would have been excited about it if not for the impromptu arrangement. “Sorry, Andy. I have to be in New York tomorrow, so I’m taking tome work home. Let’s make it next week

“Going to see your nephews and nieces?” Andrew asked, feeling nostalgic. His girlfriend was equally going to visit her parents in New York, so he was quite lonely. Based in Spain and away from his parents in New York like Oliver, it was nice to spend their free time together if he wasn’t with his girlfriend

Andrew laughed on the phone, knowing how Oliver adored his brother–in–law, Who wouldn’t? Nathan Legend was a man whose shoes every man wanted to wear and every woman wanted as a dream husband.

“If it’s him, then you can’t refuse.”

“You got that right.” Oliver responded as Andrew added,

“I’m very much interested in knowing how it goes.”

The next day. Oliver was on his private jet to New York, having informed Nathan in advance. When he was picked up by a driver to the hotel from the airport, he was surprised to hear from the hotel manageress.

“Str. Winters, your date is waiting for you in our presidential suite. Here are the details”

Oliver took the card offered to him by the hotel manageress and shook his head. This was unlike Nathan. He wanted to call the latter, but knowing it wouldn’t change anything, there was no point wasting that time.

As Oliver hurried to the presidential suite to end things quickly, the hotel manageress could not help her fast–beating heart rate. How could a man carry so much power and be so attractive at that?

Even without a smile, he was so breathtaking Oliver was only eager to end this whole hullabaloo and spend the rest of the time Mercedes mansion with his nieces and nephews after.

When he arrived at the said room, the lights were dim. There was a candlelit dinner with varieties of red wine. Rose petals spread out beautifully in the large, elegant room but Oliver was surprised to see the blonde girl seated at the table with her head lowered.

Her haar was so long and straight, covering her shoulders and the upper part of the outfit best friend, Angie. Her hair was always straight as if she had it ironed. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Her straight hair reminded Oliver of his sister’s

This woman looked too young and naive, with a petite mien. How could Nathan do this? Did he really send this girl? Did he even see her? Oliver throk his head and sat opposite her A promise was a promise, and this was his chance to p

He would just be mer and end things amicably with her. “Hi, I’m Oliver Winters,” he forced a smile and said. A few seconds passed, but the girl’s
