I Am the Sweetheart of Mr. CEO-Chapter 487 - 485: Love Rivals Meet (4)

Vera Wave nodded lightly, "Mm."

This matter was bound to happen sooner or later, so it’s better to tell him sooner.

As his gaze swept over the shiny ring on her left ring finger, a trace of worry flashed in Nathan Leafcastle’s eyes.

From the current situation, the bankruptcy of the Wave Clan is very likely connected to the Ashton Group and Christoper Cooper, yet Vera Wave is now going to marry Kris Cooper.

The door was gently pushed open, and the server brought in the meal.

Feeling the atmosphere at the table was a bit dull, Vera Wave immediately spoke up.

"Brother Nathan, eat something."

"Alright."

The man responded in a low voice, picked up his chopsticks, took a bite of food, but it was tasteless like chewing wax.

Kris Cooper was taking care of Vera Wave while serving food to Grandma Wave, his face reflecting a cheerful mood.

Seeing Nathan Leafcastle’s low spirits, Vera Wave proactively served him a dish.

"Brother Nathan, eat something!"

"Yes, yes, eat more!" Grandma Wave also spoke with a smile, "Nathan, do you have a girlfriend yet?"

"I..." Nathan Leafcastle took a deep breath, "Not yet."

"It’s good for young men to prioritize their careers, but you can’t only focus on your career and ignore family. In Ebba, we say to establish a family before a career." Grandma Wave said.

Her memory wasn’t very good, some things she remembered confusedly, but in terms of language expression, she wasn’t too flawed.

"Grandma is right."

Seeing her grandma bringing up a sensitive topic, Vera Wave quickly changed the subject.

"By the way, Brother Nathan, what made you think of watching cherry blossoms?"

"A friend came over from Singapore, so I showed her around."

"I see..." Vera Wave was taken aback, "I’m really sorry, yesterday I... I was too anxious and didn’t notice."

"It’s okay." Nathan Leafcastle smiled, "I’ll explain it to her."

"Then please apologize for me."

He nodded, about to say something when Kris Cooper had already reached over with his chopsticks, putting a piece onto Grandma Wave’s plate.

"Grandma, try this!"

"Alright."

Nathan Leafcastle took a breath, Kris Cooper’s chopsticks slanted over, blocking between him and Vera Wave.

"Grandma, try this too, the fish is really fresh!"

"Alright!"

Nathan Leafcastle tried to speak several times but couldn’t, so he could only close his mouth, while beneath the table, Vera Wave lightly kicked Kris Cooper.

"Ouch!" Kris Cooper cried out dramatically, "Grandma, Vera kicked me!"

Grandma Wave immediately looked at Vera Wave reproachfully, "Don’t always bully Kris."

Vera Wave was both annoyed and amused, but couldn’t speak out in front of Nathan Leafcastle, so she just glared at him with her big eyes, while Kris Cooper met her glare with a mischievous wink.

To Nathan Leafcastle, this scene was unmistakably like a lovers’ quarrel, and his gaze dimmed even further.

Just then, his phone rang.

He got up and went outside to answer the call.

"Nathan, where are you?"

The voice on the other end was Liliana Davis’s.

"Eating out."

"What’s going on, Sally is packing up to return to Singapore, and when I asked her what’s wrong, she wouldn’t say a word."

Nathan Leafcastle frowned.

Yesterday, he was preoccupied with Vera Wave, leaving Sally Dalton like that was indeed not right.

He hadn’t slept well all night, constantly thinking about Vera Wave’s situation. When she called him for a meal, he rushed over immediately, completely forgetting about Sally Dalton.

"I’ll go back right away."
