Tap Tycoon System!

After a few more talks, Nathan finally settled his order.

"Finally…"

It took a while for it to get done since the Jollibee staff has to confirm that Nathan is not a scammer.

He has to pay first before the order proceeds.

They said that it will arrive in 5 minutes, so Nathan has to endure his hunger for now.

Fortunately, the food he ate earlier is enough for him to last for a few minutes.

Nathan sat down with his hands on his stomach.

He felt his head turning blank because of hunger, so he just sat there in a daze.

After a few minutes that felt like an eternity to Nathan, a knock sounded from the outside.

"Jollibee Delivery!"

Like a ferociously hungry beast that smelled food, Nathan rushed to the door.

He opened the door with too much strength, causing its screws to almost come off.

Nathan looked at the delivery guy outside the door and without saying anything, took the plastics with food on the guy's hand and went back in a hurry.

Looking at the close door, the delivery guy was stunned and still haven't recovered yet,

"E-enjoy your meal…" he muttered, before leaving in a hurry.

Back inside the house, when Nathan got the food, he ran to the kitchen and dropped the plastics, took a chicken from a bucket and bit it.

Nathan doesn't care about anything else at this time, all he wants is to just fill his stomach to the fullest!

'Bite!'

'Chew!'

'Gulp!'

The sound of Nathan's eating is the only sound at this moment, he was so focused at it that he did not even notice Natalie who woke up because of the noise he was making, standing behind him.

She looks at him with complicated eyes.

In her hand, a syringe with a green liquid was being hold tight,

The awakener!

At this time, Natalie has dark circles on her eyes, looks pale and without energy.

Natalie was not able to sleep well last night after discovering the "green unknown agent" from Nathan.

The thoughts running through her head made her stay up all night, only falling asleep when the dawn arrived.

Looking at Nathan acting like this in front of the food now, Natalie became more and more convinced that her imagination or 'deduction' is real!

With a sorrowful expression, she looks at the awakener in her hand,

'I was right! This thing might be… drugs!'

That's right, Natalie thought that Nathan is a drug addict.

With her limited information and rich imagination, she finally arrived at this conclusion after a night of pondering!

Add Nathan's current behavior, Natalie finally became confident that she's correct!

'I never expected my brother to become an addict… was it because of me? Because he's been having a hard time supporting me?'

Arriving at this thought, Natalie can't help but become downcast as she blames herself for Nathan becoming an 'addict'.

After munching down on almost 20 kilograms worth of food, Nathan finally filled up his stomach.

Without the hunger affecting his mind, Nathan finally became aware of Natalie's presence.

Turning his head at her, he said, "What are you still standing there for? Sit down already and eat!"

He got up and pushed Natalie to sit down before taking a seat again.

Nathan places all kinds of foods in front of Natalie, urging her to start eating.

But Natalie just sat there in a daze, not moving an inch.

Nathan noticed this as well as Natalie's current appearance, so he asked,

"Nat? What's the matter? Are you sick?"

Nathan puts his hand on Natalie's forehead to feel her temperature.

"It doesn't feel like you have a fever." he muttered,

Not knowing what's the problem, Nathan can only ask Natalie again.

After asking for the second time, Natalie finally broke her silence.

"Brother… why?..."

Puzzled by what Natalie said, Nathan can only tilt his head,

"Huh? What do you mean, why?"

Natalie was silent for a few seconds.

Then she looks directly at Nathan's eyes, with a tearful but firm look in her eyes.

"I'm asking you, why did you become a drug addict!?"

Raising her voice as she choked on her emotions, Natalie cried as she asked Nathan this one question.

Which is the same question she's been pondering about the whole night,

'Why, just why did my brother have to become an addict!'

Nathan, on the other side of the table, was dumbfounded with Natalie's sudden outbursts.

What an addict?

Who's an addict?

I'm not an addict!

Nathan was dizzy with all Natalie was saying. He raises his hand and hurriedly stop the crying Natalie from speaking further.

"Wait, stop, stop!"

Natlie obediently went silent and just continued to look at Nathan with complicated eyes.

Nathan wanted to complain.

Why are your eyes already looking at me like I'm a criminal!?

If I didn't know better, I would have accused myself of being a criminal by the looks you're giving me!

He massages his frowning brows.

Looking at Natalie, he asked, "So? What do you mean I'm an addict?"

Natalie wipes the tears on her face as she puts something on the table for Nathan to see.

Looking at that thing, Nathan's eyes widened and immediately looked at his pocket.

He was surprised to learn that the last awakener in his pocket was not there!

He looked back on the thing on the table, then at Natalie's face.

Nathan, being an intelligent man, immediately deduced what happened and how Natalie concluded him as an addict.

Realizing that, Nathan facepalm in the face of the truth.

Looking at the tearful Natalie, Nathan let out another helpless sigh.

"Your imagination is really just too broad."

Nathan finally said after being silent for a minute.

Natalie doesn't know what Nathan means by that, but she still looks at him directly without averting her eyes.

Nathan looks back at her and said,

"I'm not an addict!"

Natalie still looks at Nathan with the same eyes, clearly not believing what he just said.

Then the two proceeds to clear up the misunderstanding.
