Unfinished Business with You novel

Chapter 542

Standing up, she looked at him and said, "Thank you for earlier."

The corners of Nathan's mouth tugged with difficulty. In the previous seven years, she had never said such kind words to him. He always disliked her for being ungrateful, putting romance before her friendship, and being self-assertive.

Kate hurriedly rejected, "Oh, it's fine. I'll just go home and put some ice on it."

Gwen piped up, "Nate, is your arm all right? Why don't I take you to the hospital?"

With a glance at Gwen, Nathan replied a little impatiently, "I'm fine! You should go back."

Gwen frowned. "How could you be fine? I saw that guy hit you square on the arm. It must hurt really bad."

Saying that, she moved forward to take a look at Nathan's arm.
