Chapter 54 Talk About The Photos

“My matters with Christina have nothing to do with you.”

Nathaniel glanced at Hunter coldly, not intending to continue bickering.

Evelyn dragged Hunter over to the table and sat down. “Well, since you’re here, come and join us,” she offered Nathaniel.

With the elderly woman around, the two men calmed down and took their seats.

“Happy birthday, Granny. This is for you.” Nathaniel handed Evelyn a gift box.

When the old woman opened it, Christina was taken aback. There was nothing but a key inside that huge box.

“I heard from Christina that you like dancing, so I bought you a studio nearby. Now, you won’t have to trouble yourself with heading outside whenever you feel like dancing.” Nathaniel explained.

Hunter scoffed. “What do you know? Granny loves dancing outdoors precisely because she wants people to appreciate her moves.”

Evelyn kicked him from underneath the table and beamed. “Thank you, Nat. That’s so thoughtful of you.”

After a pleasant meal, Hunter took Evelyn to the courtyard to listen to her record player while Christina saw Nathaniel off.

She took his silence as a “yes”

“Xandra came looking for me to brag about it, but she ran off after I dissed her.” Christina winked.

Nathaniel caressed her head. “Does it still hurt?”

Even if he weren’t in town, he would still know everything that had happened to her.

The woman shook her head. “It’s no big deal. You should head back now.”

Nathaniel wrapped an arm around her waist and placed his forehead against hers, his breath lingering over her rosy cheeks.
