The Unwavering Heart That Broke (Nathalie and Lance) novel Chapter 719

Chapter 719

Chapter 719

A soothing, maternal warmth seeped through her palm, melting away the lingering coldness and anxiety in Nathalie’s heart

Her grandmother didn’t need to speak. That incredibly tender gaze alone was enough to make Nathalie’s eyes sting with the urge to break down and cry.

But she couldn’t.

She wasn’t a little kid anymore, and her grandmother was getting older. She had to learn to suppress her emotions and face these horrors on her

own.

She had done a pretty good job of it in the past, hadn’t she?`

Closing her eyes once more, Nathalie let herself sink into the steady warmth radiating from her grandmother’s hand.

Once the acupuncture was finished, Elara finalized the new prescriptions. The medicinal tonics had already been brewed, and the staff brought

them up.

Pinching her nose, Nathalie threw back the bowl of thick, bitter tonic, her face scrunching up in disgust as she shot her grandmother a pitiful look.

Grandma casually pulled an orange-flavored hard candy out of her pocket. “Look how old you are, still making faces at medicine. Here, eat this, it’ll wash the taste right out.”

The sweet and tart flavor burst on her tongue, rapidly neutralizing the herbal bitterness.

Nathalie grinned and wrapped her arms around her grandmother.

Grandma sighed gently. “I just want you to get better soon. Not being able to talk to you like this… I really can’t get used to it.”

Elara chimed in with a bright smile. “Grandma, Nathalie is making

me.”

Lance stiffened, his voice coming out a little raspy. “Thank you, Grandma.” “Alright, since you’ve both taken your medicine, get some sleep,” Grandma said, rising from her chair and leaving the master bedroom.

Elara turned to Nathalie. “Wanna sleep in my room tonight?”

She had a mountain of questions. How did they get together? How exactly did this scumbag manage to sleep with his sister-in-law? She was dying of curiosity.

Nathalie shook her head, quickly typing, “No, I promised to look after him. I can’t break my word.”

“Hmph. Guy’s got way better luck than he deserves,” Elara muttered, shooting Lance a withering glare.

Nathalie smiled faintly, escorting her to the door and quickly tracing letters into Elara’s palm.

[Try not to be so hostile toward him. I’ll handle the mess between us. But for now, since you’re taking his money, let’s at least maintain a facade of peace.]

Elara stuck her tongue out. “I just get so disgusted thinking about a guy sleeping with his brother’s widow. But fine, I get it. I’ll dial it back.”

Watching Elara skip downstairs, a wave of warmth washed over

Nathalie’s heart.
