Deceiving Her Ears: Ignoring Your Call-Chapter 195: I Prepared Groomsmen for You
Because of that spring dream, Isaac Vaughn was drenched in sweat, his handsome face flushed with a light redness.
Even worse, the involuntary reaction that shouldn’t be shown lingered.
It was downright embarrassing.
Fearing that Natalie Kendall might see this, he hurriedly turned his back, intending to conceal and avoid.
The next second, the sound of footsteps began.
Getting closer and closer.
Isaac Vaughn’s breath caught, his mind blank.
How could he explain why he was here?
How could he explain his embarrassing state at this moment?
Just as Isaac Vaughn was racking his brains, the footsteps passed by him, accompanied by a faint cold gardenia scent.
It was as if one was seeing a stranger at the foot of a stairway at home.
Natalie Kendall’s steps did not pause at all.
Isaac Vaughn snapped back to reality.
Watching Natalie Kendall, dressed in sporty attire and apparently going for a morning run, her figure disappearing into the distance.
An hour later, a post-workout Natalie Kendall returned.
By now, the sun was slowly rising, and she was slightly sweating, those beads of sweat sparkled on her porcelain-white delicate face under the sunlight.
Having awaited her return, Isaac Vaughn stepped in front of her as she approached and blocked her path.
Natalie Kendall halted her steps, looking at him with calm indifference.
Isaac Vaughn handed over the breakfast bag he held, his voice a bit hoarse, "It’s still warm."
Natalie Kendall moved a step to the side and continued on her way.
Leaving Isaac Vaughn with his breakfast bag, utterly ridiculous, nothing left to hide.
At eight-thirty in the morning, Jordan Rivers came out holding the nanny’s hand from the building.
He carried a blue backpack, dressed in a green and white school uniform, bouncing happily.
Upon seeing Isaac Vaughn, he suddenly froze, showing an expression of disbelief.
Isaac Vaughn smiled slightly, bending down to open his arms toward him.
If it was the old Jordan Rivers, he would have rushed over immediately, jumping into his arms cheerfully, calling out "Brother-in-law."
But now Jordan Rivers first glanced at the nanny, then walked over with the nanny and stood in front of him.
"Brother, why are you here?" 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂
After asking, Jordan Rivers couldn’t help but look back at the building entrance.
Murmuring softly, "Sister will be going to work soon."
In the end, he’s still a child.
The worry was unmistakably hidden in his tone.
Jordan Rivers worried about him appearing in front of his sister.
Isaac Vaughn felt as if he’d been punched hard in the chest.
He slowly straightened up, rigidly forcing a smile, "Off to school?"
Jordan Rivers nodded, then said, "Brother, I need to go now, or I’ll be late."
"Alright," Isaac Vaughn said, "Go on."
Jordan Rivers followed the nanny and left.
Isaac Vaughn exhaled heavily, then got into the car.
Jordan Rivers’ worry was not misplaced; he should leave.
If Natalie Kendall saw him, it would only make her upset.
——
In early August, Lucas Lowell and Mia are finally going to have their wedding.
"If we don’t do it soon, I’ll be showing in the wedding dress, and then she’ll be unhappy again."
Lucas Lowell popped a cherry into his mouth, "She’s difficult. Out of the 24 hours a day, she’s unhappy for 23. I can’t figure out what she’s unhappy about."
"Being able to marry such a tall, handsome, wealthy husband like me, isn’t that a win for her? A huge win!"
Natalie Kendall managed her work while listening to Lucas Lowell’s endless complaints.
Tired of it, she dialed a call, "Assistant Woods, Lucas has something to say to you."
"Damn!"
Lucas Lowell, in a fluster, almost knocked over a plate of cherries.
He dashed over from the sofa, yelled into the phone, "Honey, I love you! I love you the most in the world!"
Natalie Kendall looked at him like he was a fool, which made Lucas Lowell grit his teeth, "And I even got groomsmen ready for you! All handsome guys over six feet tall!"
