Chapter 175: Natalie’s Offer
"Ryan, will John never return?" Natalie asked after a moment.
"He won’t," Ryan replied without hesitation.
Natalie fell silent. Since John was one of Justin’s people, she had no choice but to accept his decision.
Ryan glanced at her through the rearview mirror and said, "Ms. Natalie, more than anyone else, Mr. Harper must be upset with John would no longer be by his side. John was his most trusted and cherished man—sometimes more like a brother. But there are things even Mr. Harper can’t change. I hope you won’t hold it against him."
Natalie stayed quiet.
Ryan continued, "Mr. Harper may not show it, and he has to keep his kindness in check, but he cares about all of us. Please don’t judge him just because of the situation with John. Even John would never blame him. If I were in John’s place, I’d do the same and accept my punishment without any word asked."
"I wonder if you people are working for businessman or a underworld Don to have such rules," Natalie mumbled to herself.
Ryan kept quiet, focussed on the driving.
After inspecting the home, she sent a message to the owner, confirming the house was ready for move-in, and then returned to her office.
As she stepped into the lobby on her office floor, someone was waiting there.
"Ms. Natalie."
