BXBX NOVEL Chapter 46 Blood Ties
6:30 AM
The sun was lighting the world with it's gentle glow. It's gentle sunlight makes life under the sky more vibrant than ever.
At the yard of the Fernandez Residences.
Nathan took a deep breath of the refreshing morning air, feeling every cell on his body getting energized as he bath himself with the light of the sun.
Natalie already went back to her room after their talk as she said that she still has something to do.
Looking at the clear sky above, Nathan smiled,
"What a great day it is!~"
He just finished his morning exercise and feels quite tired. Sweat still rolls down his body, dripping down on the ground.
After feeling the heat coming from the sun a little more, he went back inside the house and drank some cold water from the fridge.
He walked to the living room with a bottle in his hand and sat on the sofa, turned on the tv and watched some news.
Since he's got nothing to do until his car arrives, Nathan decides to relax as he waits for the arrival of the Jeep.
Looking at the time on the tv, Nathan saw that it's already 7 AM.
He can't help but start to get anxious about the delivery of the Jeep.
"It will not take until the afternoon for it to be delivered, won't it?" he said with worry.
The agreed time of the meet up with the hiker's club was 9:30 AM. That means he needs to leave the house by 8:30 to not be late.
Being late on a meet up will surely bring a negative impression of him, which he doesn't want.
That is why being punctual is very important.
While he was still worrying, his phone suddenly rang.
Ding!
"A text message? Is it finally the car!?"
Nathan can't help but expect something as he picks up his phone.
But Nathan after reading the message, he cools down his emotion.
[You have received ₱12,960,000 in your bank account 869XXXXXX. Your total bank balance is ₱13,450,000]
…
This is the profit of the cafe from the app after a day of earning.
Nathan was actually curious about when he would receive the profit from the app a while ago.
Now he immediately understood that the earnings from the app will be deposited every 7 AM in his bank.
Nathan sighed, "Hais… I thought that the car was finally here. Well, this is not bad news at least."
Getting money for free will never be bad news!
Speaking of the cafe, Nathan thought to take a look at the actual coffee shop at the city center.
"Hmm… I was planning to visit it after my hiking trip but... I should go and take a look at it if time allows me to."
Nathan decided, if his car is delivered earlier, he will go and drive by at the coffee shop since it's on the path he'll take going to Mt. Tralala anyway.
Now, it's all up to the arrival time.
"I should just wait patiently, getting stressed out about it will do me nothing good. So I better calm myself and focus on relaxing."
Saying that, Nathan let go of his worries and leaned down on the sofa comfortably.
Time slowly passed, when Nathan was about to fall asleep, the doorbell sounded.
Nathan was startled by it and his sleepiness disappeared.
Yawning, he got up from the sofa, "Yawn~ Who is it that's interrupting my relaxation."
Walking to the entrance, he opened the door to see who's ringing the doorbell.
"Hello, sir. Your Jeep Wrangler has arrived."
What faced Nathan was a man wearing a suit, with a bright smile on his face.
It was the car dealership employee from last night, Bors.
From outside the gate, Nathan also saw a truck with his car behind it.
When Nathan saw that, he immediately became spirited!
"Great! It's finally here!"
Without waiting for Bors, he ran outside the gate to take a look at the car.
He can't help but become excited, "I can't wait to drive it."
Bora followed from behind Nathan then signaled the driver of the truck to bring down the Jeep.
Several minutes later, Nathan is sitting inside his car, slightly feeling overwhelmed by happiness.
At this time, Bors walked to him, "Are you satisfied, sir."
Without even looking at him, Nathan replied, "Yeah, I'm satisfied. If I'm going to buy a car again next time, I'll surely look for you first."
Hearing that, Bors' eyes lit up, "Thank you sir, for your generosity!"
After talking for a while, Bors and the truck left.
Nathan went back inside the house and immediately took a light shower.
After he's done, he walks towards his room and picks up the things he will bring.
Leaving his room, he knocked on Natalie's door and called her,
"Tal? Come out for a second."
Footsteps came from inside the room and a few seconds later Natalie opened the door.
Looking at Nathan who is fully dressed up for his trip, she was puzzled.
"Eh? Are you going somewhere, brother?"
"Yeah, I'll be going on a hike today. I will be back before dinner." he replied.
Natalie nodded understandably, "Oum, okay then. Have fun!"
"I will try to have as much fun as I can."
Then he pulled something from inside his pocket.
It was a silver bracelet with an embedded red gem of unknown material in it. It looks so elegant and precious that any girl will surely fall in-love with it at first sight.
Nathan presented it to Natalie, "Take this."
When Natalie's eyes fell on it, it widened in surprise and she seemed to have fallen for it.
She stretched out her hand and took the bracelet carefully while asking Nathan,
"Brother, what is this?"
Nathan nodded his head when he saw that Natalie liked the bracelet.
Hearing her question, his eyes turned serious,
"This is Blood Ties."
"And it is not just an ordinary bracelet."
