The Captain I Married by Chance novel Chapter 322

"It was just a mistake that any man could make. Why are you trying to spite me by settling for a guy like this? This is the rest of your life we are talking about. You can't make such a reckless decision!"

Leonard chimed in to support Aaron. "He is right, Nora. I am your father, and I would never steer you wrong."

"Even if this cop can meet my conditions, it doesn't mean he is a good man you can rely on."

"Frontline cops put their lives on the line every day. Do you want to be a young widow?"

Since money couldn't scare Nathan off, they were resorting to personal attacks now?

Nora's gaze turned incredibly somber.

Nathan didn't deserve to be treated this way by them.

And they had absolutely no right to disrespect her fiancé.

"This has nothing to do with you."

The moment Nora spoke, Nathan pulled her into his arms, gently patting her back as if comforting a child.

"Nora, I will handle this."

His voice was profoundly soothing.

The furious indignation sparked by Leonard and Aaron's shamelessness was instantly quelled by his simple words.

She looked up at him.

Seeing the unwavering certainty in his gaze, laced with a gentle ache for her, she felt a lump form in her throat.

Ever since being driven out of the Hayes family, Nora hadn't truly felt warmth from anyone.

She and her mother had relied only on each other. When her mother fell ill, Nora was forced to grow up fast.

On countless late nights, she had broken down in despair over the illness.

But every morning she opened her eyes, she had to put on a brave face because she couldn't bear to worry her mother.

People thought her cold, detached demeanor was innate.

In truth, she had been a lively, cheerful girl in her childhood.
