"Look at you, bumping right into it!"

Natalia glared at him, wiping her mouth with a look of distaste.

"Natalia, thank you."

She hesitated for a moment, then averted her gaze.

"I did it for the kid. I don't want our child's father hurting himself over some childhood memories."

Hamilton's eyes were filled with an undeniable affection.

Natalia tried to retract her hand, but Hamilton held on tighter.

Hamilton played with her fingers, saying, "Then let's keep it for our child. From

now on, I'm working for you two, Ms. Jenkins. If you'll let me, I'm willing to work for you for the rest of my life."

Natalia's fingers curled slightly. She looked down, taking a long time before she finally spoke.

"Hamilton, you don't have to do this."
