Nathan remained silent and went straight into the bathroom.

She was hoping to alert Nathan so he wouldn’t come out and be spotted.

Sally crossed her arms and looked at her contemptuously. “I’ve ne seen a woman as shameless as you. You threatened my grandn with Nathan and even moved in here brazenly. Aren’t you afraid of dying?”
