I didn’t expect Nathan to suddenly appear in front of me, and without caring about anything else, insist on talking to me in front of so many people.

I always thought he was the rational type, but apparently, even he could lose control sometimes.

Not wanting my colleagues to watch the drama unfold, I calmly said to Nathan, “Come with me.”

Instead of taking him to my office, I walked outside.

Nathan silently followed behind me. Earlier, I’d noticed his eyes were bloodshot–a clear sign he hadn’t been sleeping well either.

I opened my car door and got in. Nathan slid into the passenger seat, kept stealing glances at me every so often.

I kept my attention on the road, staying silent.

The air inside the car felt stifling. I rolled down the window, and the breeze brought in the noise from outside, easing the tension a bit.

Seeing I wasn’t going to say anything, Nathan leaned his head back against the seat and closed his eyes.
