Chapter 665

Elizabeth followed him and presented him with a cake, saying, “This is for you.Aunt Sophia knows that it’s your favorite.”

Frank accepted the cake with a concealed grin.

“I require your assistance with one more matter.Please keep Natalie’s presence here confidential.She confided in Aunt Sophia and me, and I cannot betray her trust,”

Elizabeth inquired warily, aware that she was making a significant request of Frank.

Frank scowled, feeling powerless as he said, “Honestly, there are guards dispatched by Brandon stationed downstairs.Even if I remained silent, Brandon would know Natalie’s presence here.He probably already had.”

“In any case, you mustn’t inform him.If I discover you revealed this to him, you will spend your life with Brandon Larson.And I will never speak to you.”

Elizabeth warned firmly.

Seeing the unwavering resolution in his girlfriend’s expression, Frank promptly consented.

“Alright, I won’t divulge anything to Brandon.”

The living room’s television channel was in flux, shifting and morphing into something new.

Sophia let out a tired yawn, feeling heavy-eyed.

Natalie urged her to rest, so Sophia slowly began her walk to retire for the night.

The front door then opened and closed shut.

Natalie looked up and noticed that Elizabeth had returned from seeing Frank off downstairs.

A sense of unease crept over Natalie as she asked, “Is Frank upset?”

The realization suddenly dawned on her that she had been too harsh on Frank.

“He’s not upset.He left with a smile on his face,”

Elizabeth said as she walked over, sat down, and switched the TV channel.

“He won’t inform Brandon about it, so don’t worry.Just stay here.”

“I already told Frank in the kitchen earlier.Please don’t take it out on him because of me.I can handle my issues with Brandon.”

Natalie was anxious that Frank and Elizabeth might argue because of her.

“It’s fine.Despite Frank’s usual aloofness, he’s quite timid.I was only trying to shake him a bit, and he quickly promised not to tell Brandon,”

Elizabeth chuckled and explained.
