Chapter 269


    Nathaniel still refused to speak to Eloise, and she could only sigh, “If you‘re unwilling to speak to me, I‘ll


    just leave.”


    “I see. You‘d be so indifferent even after your son was in an ident,” Nathaniel finally spoke as he


    sneered at her.


    “Didn‘t Ie here to see you?” she snapped.


    “Yeah! It must‘ve been difficult to add this to your schedule.” He had never been this rude to his mother,


    but Nathaniel was furious, so he could only take it out on her.


    When people were beaten down, they could always count on someone, but Nathaniel had no one else.


    “Nate! How dare you talk to me like that?” Eloise said sternly, “You know exactly how difficult it was for


    me all these years, but I‘ve always tried my best to help you. Ask yourself this, haven‘t I always given


    you help when needed? It‘s true that this time, I‘m at fault. However, you have no right to talk to me like


    that!”


    Nathaniel immediately came to his senses after being reprimanded. He turned around to look at his


    mother. She was an elegant and graceful woman. Even though she was already in her twilight years

    and fine lines were visible on her face, she still looked beautiful. This could only mean she had a good


    life after getting remarried to someone else.


    “Mother, I‘m sorry. I shouldn‘t have spoken to you like that,” he apologized.


    Eloise sighed in defeat, “It‘s all right! I know that you‘re in a bad mood because of your injuries. Also,


    I‘ve seen the news report on your ident, that street wasn‘t narrow at all, and it was empty at the time


    of the ident. How could you have been hit by a car?” Nathaniel did not answer her question.


    Instead, he asked, “Mother, what‘s your rtionship with Frank?”


    “Why do you ask?” Eloise was taken aback “It‘s nothing big. I just wanted to know him better since you


    were the one who introduced him to me,” Nathaniel exined.


    “I met him by chance. I helped him once, and because of that, he owed me a favor. I heard that he was


    well–known amongst perfumers abroad, so I brought him in to help when I heard you were in trouble.


    Was this because of hiin?” Eloise immediately connected the timelines of these incidents and asked.


    “You‘re saying that you didn‘t know him very well and he wasn‘t a friend, yet you still ––introduced him


    to me?” Nathaniel continued to question.


    He was using a condescending tone to speak to her, and this angered Eloise.


    Her face darkened as she said, “What‘s the meaning of this? Are you ming this on me? I introduced


    him to you to help you solve your mess. Was he not useful? Did he not have that ability? Why are you


    so fixated on whether he‘s a friend or not? Isn‘t it enough that he could help?” “Yeah, he was helpful, all


    right! He even helped my fiance with her needs!” Frank was


    introduced to him by his mother but ended up sleeping with his fiancee. Nathaniel should have stopped


    them from going to Middle Valley together! Middle Valley! When he thought about what had happened


    the past few days. Nathaniel finally realized Frank had been interested in Mnie from the beginning.


    He knew something was wrong back then and tried to stop Mnie from approaching him, but she did


    not listen. They had been going behind his back for a long time. Nathaniel was such an id*ot to have


    flown to apany her and protect her when she was alone in Middle Valley.
