Chapter 160

Nathalie was kind of lost in thought.

Every word from Frankie was soaked with deep affection for Nathan. A gentle joy bubbled up inside Nathalie.

Nathan had his share of misfortunes, but he was also lucky in his own way.

Frankie suddenly fell silent, tapping her lips in self-reproach. "Should I not have shared all that with you? You're

not going to think less of Nathan, are you?"

Nathalie shook her head, her excitement making her words tumble out. "Oh no, Ma'am. Nathan only shows his

tough side to those who've wronged him. He's always so sweet with me, and | really like him. | could never think

badly of him, not ever." Frankie was taken aback, almost as if struck by lightning. Goodness, what had she just

heard?

"It sounds like you and my Nathan are pretty close, huh?"

Behind the screen, Nathan couldn't help but grin. His charming eyes sparkled with amusement, though he didn't

even realize it.

"| can't wait to hear how you're going to respond to my grandma," he thought with anticipation.

Nathalie snapped back to reality, feeling like her heart nearly jumped out of her chest. "Oh, please don't get the

wrong idea... | see Nathan like a little brother."

Frankie quipped, "Isn't the whole older woman-younger man thing pretty trendy with you young folks these

days?"

Nathalie's face turned beet red. "I'm not just six years older than Nathan, but I've also been through a divorce.

I've never even considered having any romantic feelings for Nathan. Honestly, | don't plan on getting married

again."

Frankie was quiet for a while. "I was a bit forward. Ms. Nathalie. I'll give your work the attention it deserves. You

can head home, and I'll be in touch."

Nathalie left, feeling a bit shaky.

Nathan emerged, his expression serious.

Frankie glanced at him, noting his icy, tense demeanor, and teased, "Has she seen this frosty side of you

before?"

Nathan plopped onto the couch, making it sink under his weight. "Why'd you ask her those odd questions,

Grandma?" Frankie played it cool. "What questions?"

"You wanted to know about my relationship with her. You could've just asked me."

Frankie casually replied, "You've been going out of your way to help her career along. Do I really need to ask

about your feelings? Naturally, | want to know how the person you care about feels about you"

Nathan was taken aback. Were his feelings that obvious?

Suddenly, he felt a bit downcast. "You heard her. Looks like | am destined to be single forever."

Frankie figured Nathan was just at the age where one tends to overtize things and saw his affection as a

fleeting part of growing up. So, she encouraged him, "I wouldn't count on that." Nathan's eyes lit up with hope.

"Grandma, what's your take?"

Frankie explained, "You were behind the screen and only heard her. You didn't see how nervous she was. Her

hands were shaky, and she was so flustered that she misspoke. Nathan, this girl really cares about you. She

couldn't relax in front ofbecause she's that concerned about you."

Nathan's face broke into a big smile. "Grandma, now that you know how | feel, I'll say that both of us have been

through tough times. So, | hope you won't make things hard for her."

Frankie sighed, "If it were solely up

to me, I'd prefer you were with someone without a complicated past. But worry you might repeat your mother's

mistakes, so I'll stay out of your love life. Just remember, Nathan, to love others as much as you love yourself."

"Thanks, Grandma."

Around noon, Theo rushed back home. And he showed up with Cameron in tow.
