Chapter 798: Chapter 798: She Is Excellent (4)

When Vera Xavier heard this, the corner of her mouth twitched. She realized her earlier worries about how he’d handle Brooke Mitchell were completely unnecessary. At his core, he was a cunning man who had a perfect grasp on his mother’s way of thinking.

She couldn’t hear what Brooke Mitchell was saying on the other end of the line. She only heard Nathaniel Nathan say in an extremely indifferent voice, "Is that so? Then I won’t be coming back either. You have Dad to keep you company, so I’ll just stay with Vera. And you don’t need to call again. You know that no one can change my mind."

With that, he hung up.

’I take it back,’ Vera Xavier thought. ’You can’t praise Lord Nathan for even a second!’

Nathaniel Nathan saw her looking at him and said coolly, "Don’t worry. Since I’m the one being kept by you, I do possess the basic decorum required for the role. I won’t leave your side without getting your permission first."

"I think... you could go home today," Vera Xavier said, her voice trembling.

Nathaniel Nathan said slowly, "I know what you’re thinking. You don’t want to strain your relationship with my mom, so you’re choosing to compromise. But, Vera Xavier, I’m your man. And on this matter, I will not allow you to make any compromises whatsoever."

Vera Xavier was stunned for a moment by his words. He looked at her and said, "In my opinion, you absolutely cannot compromise on something like this. Because if there’s a first time, there will be a second. You could end up having to put up with my mom’s attitude forever."

"I’m not the kind of guy who chooses his wife over his own mother, but I won’t allow my wife to be bullied by my mother, either. So don’t worry about putting me in a tough spot. I will always be your rock."

It was rare for Vera to hear such a sentimental speech from Young Master Nathan. She was more used to his usual arrogant, swaggering attitude, where every word out of his mouth was prickly. This was so new to her that she couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

Nathaniel Nathan’s brows furrowed. Vera Xavier looked at him, her eyes sparkling, and said, "Could you say what you just said one more time?"

Nathaniel Nathan: "..."

Vera Xavier said with a grin, "I just think you looked so incredibly cool when you said that!"

Nathaniel Nathan shot her a glare. His phone rang again. It was Brooke Mitchell. He glanced at the screen and answered the call, while Vera Xavier pressed her lips together, rested her chin in her hand, and watched him with a silly grin.

’His temper probably isn’t the best,’ she thought, ’and neither is his personality. He’s often hard to talk to. But all my frustration just vanished into thin air because of those words.’

Nathaniel Nathan glanced at her. Beaming, she looked even cuter than usual. On the other end of the line, Brooke Mitchell had already caved. "Bring Vera Xavier back with you!"

After a moment’s thought, Nathaniel Nathan said, "Too late. I’ve changed my mind. I’ve decided to stay with her. You and Dad can enjoy some time alone. We won’t disturb you."

With that, he hung up.

On the other end of the line, Brooke Mitchell was completely dumbfounded. Before calling, she had thought long and hard, feeling that she was making a huge compromise and a great sacrifice. She was already planning to teach Vera Xavier a good lesson after he brought her home. But now, he was actually telling her he was going to stay with Vera and wasn’t coming back at all!

Vera was stunned for a moment, too. Young Master Nathan’s style was truly something else. An excuse like that might have been modern, but it was also unbelievably arrogant and tyrannical!
