1 THAT'S NOT HOW IT WORKS.

"Welcome back Mr. Scott. Hope you had a nice

trip. " exclaimed the director of foreign affairs Ms. Brooke Shields. Brooke has been working at GALCON in Melbourne of Australia since 3 years. Even though Nathan gets irritated of her flirty behavior, the only reason of her not getting fired is her working efficiency. Brooke has a huge crush on Nathan.

Nathan Scott nodded at took the elevator to 20 th floor where his office is located.

Nathan Scott, CEO of GALCON is 29 years old. He is man of every girl's dreams. With his sharp jaw line, brown eyes, 6 foot 4 inches tall, dark brown hair, highly developed masculine features which hypnotize every woman is known to the world as a ruthless and cold CEO.

But he is actually a softie at heart. Cares about minute details in life. This person in Nathan is known to Lucas Eugene who is also his best friend and partner in business.

Lucus Eugene is 31 years old. He the CEO of STEREO which is also at Melbourne. Lucas is currently waiting for for his friend Nathan at his office while reading the car magazine.

Just as Nathan reached his office he was greeted by Lucas. " Are you seriously a married man? "

Nathan sighed and responds " If you are here to talk about marriage, cut me some slack. I am tired of the journey. Finish the reason you came and please take your leave. I'll meet you this weekend. " Nathan then took seat at his chair and rested his head on the desk in front of him.

Lucas was stupefied at his friend's behavior.

" How can you do this to her?.

Let me tell you Nate, ' This is not how marriage works '

She spent whole day waiting for you, not even leaving the house believing that you will come at least at night ! "

" what is wrong with you? If you can't wish your wife on her birthday then what is the point of loving her?

I doubt that you love Emily. if you ever did, you will at least call and wish her! "

" Don't act like your asleep Nathan Scott. I know you are listening to me. remember if you don't love her, release her from this so called marriage.

maybe she will find someone who will say ' I love you ' to her once a month. "

Nathan was quietly listening to Lucas but still acts asleep.

" I am serious Nathan. She doesn't deserve this.

Think yourself for God sakes. "

with this, Lucas left his office.

Hearing the door shut, Nathan got up from his chair and walked towards the floor to ceiling glass window behind his desk. He could see the the sun shining vibrantly. it was 9:00 in the morning. He landed an hour ago and came directly to GALCON.

He was dead tired but couldn't go home. He couldn't face his wife. After all with what he did, he could never face him wife.

Just then, PA Nick entered in. Nick wells is the Nathan's personal assistant since the first. He is the most trusted one for Nathan. PA Nick greeted his boss " Good morning boss, Today ---"

PA Nick was stopped by Nathan waving his hand signaling him to leave. PA Nick understood and said " Got it boss. "

with that, Nathan was left alone.

After 2 hours of thinking about his wife, he decided to leave for home. He had to face her no matter what.

Taking his coat from the chair, he took the keys of his Brand new Bugatti La Voiture Noire which was gifted by his wife and mother for his 29 th birthday.

Nathan then left to the Federation empire where he stays. It's 25 minutes drive from GALCON. It took 45 minutes today to reach home because of traffic.

when Nathan reached home he was beyond shocked to see his mother, Kate( Katherine) Scott

at the door. He overcame the shock and hugged his mother smiling. " Hello mum. What are you doing here? You and dad are supposed be here for Christmas, right? " he then pulled away to meet his mother's dark eyes.

" What's wrong? Is everything ok? " Nathan asked looking at his mother walking inside the house.

Kate bursted out on her irresponsible son.

"What's wrong with me? what's wrong with you Nathan? You remember that yesterday was your wife's birthday right? you didn't even care to wish her. How can you be so irresponsible? and didn't even bother picking up her calls since morning. I am disappointed with your behavior Nathan."

Nathan looked around but couldn't find Emily anywhere. " I know. I'm sorry. Where is she? " Nathan asked his mother. Kate pointed towards their study room ans stated

" you better fix this Nathan. " Nathan nodded and left to meet his wife.
