Nathalie's eyes were filled with a deep, endless sorrow. "The way he treated me and Nina in the past was nothing short of cold and heartless. Nina's hopes for him are bound to end up being just empty dreams."

Nathan couldn't resist pulling her into a comforting embrace. His heart ached for Nathalie. It takes a mountain of disappointment to reach a point where you have no hope left for someone. "Why is he snooping around about you?" Nathalie asked, curiosity piqued.

Nathan came clean, "Greta seems to have lost it. She fed him some crazy stories about me, and he came running to catch me in the act."

Nathalie chuckled softly, "He's always trusted Greta without question. Even when she's out of her mind, he trusts her. It's laughable, especially since you were with me last night."

Nathan shrugged, "Let him make his fuss. He can't cause any real trouble."

Nathalie had grown indifferent to most things, and she just replied with a nonchalant, "Hmm."

Back in their room, Nathan helped Nathalie get ready, doing her hair and makeup.

Sweet whispers flowed naturally between them, as they often do with lovers: "I really like you," Nathan said, watching her reflection in the mirror, her makeup subtle yet striking, and he smiled as if soaking up the warmth of spring. Nathalie blushed, "How much do you like me?"
