Seth came out with the dishes and chuckled when he heard Hesper’s speculation.
“…What’s the matter? Did I say something wrong?”
Nathaniel shook his head as Seth served the dishes and left.
Hesper looked a little bewildered, so Nathaniel helplessly explained, “Don’t worry about him. That’s
how he treats everyone. Seth is indeed my younger brother, but he likes to cook and he’s rather
introverted, which is why you haven’t heard much of him.”
Hesper nodded with a hazy notion. Nathaniel pushed the dishes she ordered closer toward her while
she was still a little confused and said, “Try them. His cooking is comparable to a professional chef’s.”
After the two of them had dinner, Nathaniel sent Hesper back home.
As dusk fell, Hesper could not help but sigh as she stared at the breathtaking but fleeting scenery
outside
the window.
“What’s the matter? Are you tired?” Nathaniel’s voice came from the left.
Hesper shook her head slowly and said after a short pause, “I’m still thinking about pursuing something
that I like. Isn’t that a little too extravagant for someone of my age?”
“How so?” Nathaniel asked in a relaxed tone, then elaborated. “You’re already doing a lot better than
most people, so of course you have the right to do whatever you like.”
“By the way, this is the surprise I wanted to give you. I didn’t have a chance to bring it up till now.”
Taking advantage of the traffic, Nathaniel took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to
Hesper. This is Roberto Sanchez’s contact information. He’ll explain the details to you.”
‘Roberto Sanchez?’ Hesper lowered her head in disbelief. ‘Isn’t that the most famous designer in
Montequinto?! I only mentioned that I love Roberto’s design once before this. I didn’t expect him to
remember it!’
“I originally wanted to get him to design and customize a dress for you. I remember you saying that you
love his design very much,” Nathaniel said. “It was only later that I learned that you actually studied.
fashion design, so I thought I should just pass you his contact information directly.”
‘With my current ability, it’s impossible for me to get in touch with a big-name designer like Roberto.
Designers like him are very arrogant, and to them, money has never been something to be put into.
consideration when picking jobs, so to be able to get such an opportunity…’
Hesper had not even dared to think about it before.
“You’ve earned this opportunity yourself. I showed him some of your previous designs, and Mr.
Sanchez. claimed that you’re very talented and wanted to know you too.”
The car slowly drove toward Hesper’s house. When they arrived at the destination, Nathaniel turned
his head toward the front passenger seat. His facial outline was a little blurred under the dim street
lights.
“I’ll see you next time, Hesper.”
Hesper had not even recovered from the shock, but when she heard his voice, she felt that she owed
Nathaniel too much. “Thank you for what you’ve done. I’ll treat you to dinner next time.” Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
Nathaniel’s eyes beamed with delight. “Okay. I look forward to it.”
Rickard stood in the night as the evening breeze brushed against him. Who knew how long had
passed
before the lights in Hesper’s room went dark.
He subconsciously grabbed a cigarette and fumbled for the lighter in his pocket, only to realize that his
hands were shaking.
“Mr. Duval, that person was Nathaniel Tucker. He’s in a marriage agreement with Ms. Lane.”
Benji’s phone call had come through. While talking, he tried to hear if there were any unusual emotions
coming from the other end of the call.
‘An hour ago, Mr. Rickard suddenly said that he wanted to talk to Ms. Lane, but then just ten minutes
ago, he called asking for me to look into someone’s background.’
