Chapter 896: Nathalie: Just One Acquaintance

This tone sounds oh so familiar!

Definitely more than just friends.

At least in Nathalie's regard, Jaycent Kingsley's status is not low.

Both Leonardy Zachmann and Mr. Zachmann watched in silence once again.

However, Nathalie didn't show any particular emotion, treating the person before her as if they were just an ordinary person. She slipped her hand into her pocket, far more casual than when she was talking to Mr. Zachmann, and responded with a grunt, "I appreciate the thought, but no need for gifts."

After a pause, she added, "…I only invited you over for dinner because you said on the phone you were fine. If I'd known you were busy, I wouldn't have asked you to make the trip."

Jaycent Kingsley chuckled again, speaking languidly, "I couldn't miss your graduation banquet. How could I not come after hearing about it, no matter how busy!"
