Nathael slipped up behind her, enveloping her in an embrace, and murmured, “Let me handle that, so you can catch up with Leo.”

Nathael didn’t say anything, only recalled Leo’s remarks before lowering his gaze and whispered, “You are very close to him.”

At the mention of Joseph, Nathael’s narrow eyes became gloomier,
