Richest Mogul

Chapter 1514

Hank was puzzled by Austin's question. "Aren't you two broken up?"

He wondered if Austin still harbored lingering feelings for Natalie. Judging by the way Austin had brought her up, Hank couldn't shake the suspicion that Austin might be contemplating rekindling their romance.

He couldn't quite explain why he had this feeling, but years of unspoken understanding between them had honed Hank's instincts.

Austin furrowed his brows in response.

Hank quickly added, "We caught up recently. She's been swamped with the new store and renovations-it's been keeping her busy." "Okay." Austin didn't say anything else and chose to remain silent.

"She did ask about you though," Hank continued, shifting the conversation.

Austin immediately looked at him and asked, "What did she ask?"

Seeing the way Austin reacted, Hank knew he was right-Austin still had feelings for Natalie, perhaps even stronger than before. Hank sighed inwardly, his heart heavy.

"She asked the same thing if you've been doing well." Hank could tell that both Austin and Natalie still cared deeply for each other.

As for the reason behind their breakup, it was probably due to some issues with Austin's family.
