Chapter 132
Before Brian came back, Davis had asked Nate if he missed Gracia and even had him video call her.
Later, Gracia spoke seriously with Davis in private, making sure Brian couldn’t overhear.
Nate was aware of Davis’s fondness for Gracia, but he simply couldn’t bring himself to like her.
It wasn’t that Gracia was mean to him. She had never scolded him. But when they were alone, she
would look at him with such a strange expression that sometimes Nate felt a chill down.
his spine.
These ladies around the house were all a bit odd. Only Natalie was kind to him, cared for him, liked
him, and stood up for him. NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
And earlier, when Davis was playing mini toy cars with him, he asked Nate some odd questions. Davis
had inquired if Nate would miss his family if, in a few years, he went to a boarding school where he
would come home only once a week.
was a bit
Apart from Sadie and Brian, Nate didn’t like anyone in the Howard family. In fact, he afraid of them. In
Brian’s absence, Nate rarely spoke and didn’t wish to engage with people he didn’t care for. So it
wasn’t just about a week. Even if he didn’t see them for half a year or a year, Nate wouldn’t miss them.
But why did they want to send him to a boarding school? Wasn’t he well–behaved? Had he upset Davis
in some way?
Sighing. Nate couldn’t help but feel troubled by the thought.
Nearby, Sadie glanced at him and whispered, “Nate, are you feeling down?”
Nate pouted and nodded slightly.
Sadie had been listening all along, and now she bravely spoke up, “Nate, if you don’t want to go. to the
place Davis mentioned, just tell your dad. He would never want you to go there. And… you can also
talk to Natalie. She’ll know what to do.”
Nate raised his eyebrows in surprise and asked, “Natalie has a way?*
Sadie wasn’t sure, but no loving parent would want their child to live at a boarding school at such a
young age. If Natalie knew, she would find a solution.
Even if it meant fighting the Howard family for custody, it would be better than leaving Nate with the
future Mrs. Howard and the rest of the Howard family who might bully and ostracize him.
Sadie could tell that Gracia didn’t care for Nate, so Sadie felt they had to find a way to save Nate.
“Don’t tell anyone it was Sadie who told you this, okay?” she said softly, embracing Nate and making a
pinky promise with him.
In the next room over. Davis pulled an envelope from his pocket and slammed it on the table in front of
Brian, saying sternly, “Take a good look at this!”
“A daughter raised by Audrey, Indeed, stands out.”
Brian looked at the photos that fell from the envelope, furrowing his brow in silence.
“Do you know what Rosie called Natalle today in front of everyone? Auntie! Rosie is Michael’s niece
and only has one uncle! Natalie’s playing stepmom! No wonder Gavin is so protective of her. They’re
practically family now! If Gracia hadn’t happened to be at that company and seen. the news department
working on that story to trend it, you would be seeing this on the internet right now!”
Davis was agitated, but Brian just stared at the photos inside the envelope, his face cold and silent.
“What sort of mess is this?! A twenty–two–year–old girl getting married to a fifty–year–old man, Nathan
should be ashamed to have such a shameless mother!” Davis continued. “If she had any consideration
for Nathan, she wouldn’t have taken it this far! And you’re still deluded that she might come back to
you! Wake up!”
