Chapter 852

Lincoln's eyelids hung low, giving him a kind of fake, amused look. "Vivian, you've been in the business game for a while now, and you've really nailed the art of keeping everyone happy. It's pretty impressive-winning over your dad without making the guests feel left out. It's a balanced move, and it fits well in today's world."

Nathalie was caught off guard.

Was it just her imagination?

Why did her dad seem a bit off today?

Faced with her dad's roundabout comments, Nathalie decided to cut to the chase. She told him straight-up, "Dad, Nathan and I have been through the wringer together. We've faced some tough times side by side. Even though we're not blood-related, our bond is even stronger than siblings. So please, don't treat him like a guest anymore. If you can, I'd love for you to consider him family and treat him warmly."

Lincoln, who could hardly ever say no to his daughter's requests, nodded without hesitation, "Don't worry, Vivian. Since he's stood by you through thick and thin, he's like a hero to me. I won't mistreat him."

After that, Lincoln was all smiles with Morris, serving him food and chatting him up.

"What's your last name, young man?"

"Nathan," Morris said, skipping the surname.

"Where do you live?"

"Southside."

Lincoln raised an eyebrow, "Southside, huh? Oh, that's the fancy part of town."

Morris stayed quiet.

Lincoln carried on, "What did you major in?"

"Something with computers."
