Chapter 243

Nathalie was a bit puzzled. "Nathan, you've got a blind date today. I can take care of the work for you."

"Work's important. We'll head out right after visiting Grandpa," Nathan replied, all serious and no-nonsense.

Nathalie sneaked a glance at his odd outfit. Whether it was for a blind date or a business meeting, he really should've put more thought into his appearance.

Still a bit lost in thought, she suddenly found herself being pulled into the hall by Nathan, playing the role of his sidekick.

"Grandpa, we're here to see you," Nathan announced, holding Nathalie's head and bowing in sync with her to Mason.

Mason's expression soured the moment he saw Nathalie. But being the seasoned diplomat he was, he lightly explained Nathalie and Nathan's relationship to the Stewart family, "Ms. Nathalie, Nathan's an adult now. It's time to let him spread his wings. You don't need to shadow him everywhere."

Nathalie had a lightbulb moment and quickly clarified, "I'm just here to take Nathan to work."

Mason's face brightened with a smile, but when his eyes landed on Nathan's bizarre getup, his grin faded.
