Nathalie let out a sigh, "Alright, I get it."

Turning to Morris, she asked, "So, how'd your check-up go?"

Morris gave his chest a reassuring pat, "No worries, I'm still young and kicking."

"That's a relief. But don't forget to show me the report once it's ready," she reminded him.

"Sure thing."

Just then, her phone buzzed with a call from Dominick.

"Hold on, Nathan, I need to take this," she said, stepping aside for some privacy.

Morris watched her with a touch of concern. What was Nathalie really up to? His instincts told him it wasn't just work-related.

On the call, Dominick told Nathalie, "Boss, we've picked up Almos and are headed to the Stewart Estate."

Nathalie cast a glance at Morris from afar and changed her plan, "Take him to the office instead. I'll be there shortly."

"Got it."

Hanging up, Nathalie returned to Morris, looking a bit hesitant. "Nathan, I've got to swing by the office, so I can't head home with you."
