"Nathaniel, what do you want?" Rebecca asked.

Seeing the wariness and fear in her eyes, Nathaniel smiled and calmly took a seat across from her.

"I'm not here to do anything. I just wanted to chat," he replied.

Rebecca's hands trembled subconsciously in her lap, convinced that this must be some new way for Nathaniel to torment her. If her response didn't satisfy him, he would definitely resort to violence again. Sadly, she had nowhere else to go.

Taking a deep breath, she forced herself to meet his gaze and said, "Don't forget, I'm supposed to go out to sea with Mr. Nuttall the day after tomorrow. If he finds out I'm hurt..." Nathaniel chuckled. "Don't worry. I won't lay a finger on you today."

Rebecca's tense back relaxed slightly at his words, but she still looked at him with lingering fear.

"What do you want to talk about?" she asked.

However, she could only think that she didn't dare say it aloud.
