Chapter 236 Take a Backseat

“Gussie also felt that she stayed too close to Nathan, but there was nothing she could do about it. The newsstand was not a huge place, and the wind was extreme. If taken one step away, they would have to be wet by the rain. ”

She could only stand sideways, try to keep a distance from Nathan and try her best to avoid physical contact.

“When is this rain going to stop? I’m completely stir–crazy!” Gussie said with a sigh.

“Well…” Nathan just smiled. To him, being trapped here with a beautiful lady was kind of a blessing.

Gussie felt annoyed and upset. She said, “How could I be so unlucky?”

Nathan said calmly, “Don’t be so sentimental. The only person who can control your fate is you. There is no such thing as unlucky.”

Gussie pursed her lips and said, “You don’t understand the feeling of always taking a backseat and being bullied and looked down upon for everything I do.”

Nathan said, “I really don’t. Most people have to flatter me to have a better life.”

Gussie glanced at Nathan and said, “You’re right. I’ve worked hard, but the gap is too great!”

She hugged herself. The strong wind blew rain on her, making her shiver in the cold.

Nathan took off his coat and covered it on Gussie like a gentleman.

Gussie covered the coat. She could feel Nathan’s temperature on it, which made her feel warm and safe.
