The door to the suite swung open unexpectedly, and there stood Regan with his darling daughter, Ashley, catching everyone off guard.
Nathalie leaned over to Nathan, teasing, “Nathan, so the bellflowers and lavender were for Ashley, huh? That’s pretty romantic of you.”
Nathan was at a loss for words.
Nathalie stepped forward to greet them. “Mr. Regan, our CEO has been eagerly waiting for you.”
Regan looked puzzled; the person he was supposed to meet today was Cameron, not Nathan. He tried to coax Ashley away, but she seemed rooted to the spot, completely unmoved.
Ashley’s eyes were glued to Nathan. Without his makeup and out of his ill-fitting clothes, Nathan looked like he had just descended from the heavens, radiating a golden glow.
His smooth skin, well-defined features, and sharp jawline gave him an air of confidence. The proud look on his face and his graceful movements drew Ashley in like a moth to a flame, trapping her in a timeless allure.
“Are you Nathan Rowland?” Ashley asked, unsure if the strikingly handsome man before her was the same scruffy man she’d met earlier. But after glancing at Nathalie, she was almost certain they were one and the same.
Nathan offered an ambiguous reply, “My brother and I both share the last name, Rowland.”
He never usually referred to Benjamin as his brother, but here he was, using him as a convenient shield, closer than ever. Truly, a wise man knows when to bend and when to stand firm.
Ashley wasn’t easily fooled, so she rephrased her question, “Are you Nathan?”
Nathan shot Nathalie a pleading look.
Nathalie got the hint. Nathan was experiencing the first stirrings of love and was overwhelmed by Ashley’s boldness. So, she assumed he was feeling a bit shy.
