Chapter 562
“Why would I know that?” he asked in return.
After asking that, he frowned and continued, “Why did you think I’d know about it?”
“You’re doubting me?” The gears in his mind moved, and he connected the dots quickly.
After he was silent for a while, Lily’s subconscious mind started formulating a comeback. Still, she held back and eventually gave him the truth. “Yeah, I figured you had something to do with his disappearance, but I wasn’t sure. After all, you have the resources and influence to pull that off, but if you insist it has nothing to do with you, then that’s it.”
Trust was written in her gaze. Alexander believed she was serious about her words and not just coaxing him.
“I have no idea about it,” he said. Someone as insignificant as Nathaniel was not worthy of Alexander’s time. However, the mention of Nathaniel did make Alexander slightly jealous.
“You’re worried about him?” It sounded like a simple question, but jealousy was evident in his
tone.
Lily had been with Alexander for quite some time, so she could quickly tell that something was wrong from his tone. Knowing he was jealous again, she was speechless at first but found it hilarious. “If I were worried, I wouldn’t have asked you so casually. I was just surprised when I heard about it.”
“It’s not surprising for anything to happen to someone like him.” Although Lily tried to comfort him, he could not be coaxed so easily, which was evident from his sarcasm.
He paused and cleared his throat before adding, “Perhaps I could ask my people to look up on it tomorrow.”
He was jealous, but if Lily wanted to know Nathaniel’s whereabouts, he would still help her.
Arianna stood by the door, her body blocking most of the sunlight that shone into the room, effectively darkening the room.
Nathaniel, leaning on the door, had his full attention on the new phone he just got his hands. on, his fingers dancing away on the screen. With the dim lights, Arianna could see that he was indulging himself in a mobile game, which made her expression darken.
“I thought that you were ready to start over. It seems that you just pushed yourself into at deeper sh*thole.” Holding her bag, she gritted her teeth. “If you’re not planning to start over again, get the hell out of here!”
“What’s with the nagging?”
Following his voice, a small bag was thrown in her direction, which she caught swiftly.
“You’re fast!” Nathaniel pressed his thumb on the screen hard before glancing up at Arianna as he stood up to meet her gaze. “I knew you were something else.”
