“Do you know her?” he asked.
“Yeah,” Joseph replied noncommittally.
“So, what are you waiting for? Go be the hero and save the damsel in distress,” Nathan teased playfully, “Can you stand watching a weak woman face this filthy scum alone?”
“I know her but we’re not close.”
In other words, he was not going to help her.
As for the “weak woman” Nathan was talking about, Joseph remembered how effortlessly she had hoisted a heavy suitcase with one hand on the day they got their marriage certificate.
Joseph’s reaction was within Nathan’s expectations. After all, Joseph was never one to meddle in other people’s affairs or to be kind and gentle toward women.
It was just that Nathan felt a little bit disappointed. The woman standing not far away was gorgeous. With long legs, a slender waist, and blemish-free skin, the simple design of her business suit effortlessly accentuated her perfect figure. Her exposed skin was as luscious and tender as a boiled egg, with a smooth and milky complexion.
She was a rare beauty that was more stunning than many A-list female celebrities.
Nathan could not bear to see a beauty being bullied so he suggested, “Since you’re not close, why don’t I go help her?”
Joseph shot a cold glance at him. “What did you say?”
His gaze sent a chill down Nathan’s spine and he quickly waved his hands, indicating that he was just joking.
“Okay, okay. I won’t do anything,” he said.
