Chapter 251

Although Nathan had brushed off Ashley, Regan found himself liking Nathan more and more. "This young man's got ambition.'

He admired men who were self-reliant and independent. Too often, heirs to wealthy families sacrificed their marriages to advance their careers-Regan included. Nathalie might have upset Nathan, but it didn't dampen her enthusiasm to work hard for him. With a polite gesture, she invited Regan to go ahead. Regan and Ashley moved forward, and just as Nathalie was about to follow, her phone rang.

Nathan, who was ahead, stopped and turned slightly. He saw Nathalie answering the call, and whatever was said made her face fall immediately. From a distance, Nathalie signaled to Nathan, her voice carrying a rough edge. "Go on. I'll catch up in a bit."

Nathan got the message and continued on, though his mood had noticeably darkened.
