He eyed Nathalie with a hint of curiosity. "Is there anything you're still wishing for? If there's something I can do to help, just say the word."

Nathalie's eyes gleamed with determination. "Thank you. I can handle my business myself."

Mason paused, recognizing her stubborn streak.

Mason was satisfied with how things were shaping up. He advised Ashley, "You need to use this time while Nathan's under the weather to get close to him. He might seem like a tough nut to crack, but he's got a warm heart underneath that armor. He'll surely be moved by your efforts. You're one of the few in the city with both brains and beauty. Give it some time, and Nathan will definitely fall for you."

Ashley was brimming with confidence. "Don't worry, Mason. I'll win Nathan over."
