NovelFastChapter 1383: No sooner had he crossed the threshold than Maddox, sprawled on a chair, smirked. “You two could've tried being a little quieter in there." Nate shot him a sidelong glance, sharp enough to silence a room. Meanwhile, Saul, Matias, and Mandy scrambled to hide their betting notes, clearly unprepared for his early arrival.
Matias jumped in with perfect timing. "Sir, the plane's still waiting at the airport. Shall we head back now?" Nate paused for a heartbeat, then answered coolly, "Let's go." There were still loose ends in Lyhaton-problems he couldn't leave unattended. At the very least, he needed to clean up the mess before Corrine returned.

He made a snide comment as he exhaled a plof smoke. "Your injuries haven't even healed properly, yet here you are, rushing off to comfort a woman. Since when did you start having a soft spot for them?" In his memory, Nate had always been indifferent to the allure of women. Whether they were curvaceous or possessed an air of innocence, none had ever managed to catch his eye. Yet now, here he was, flying to Riverveille just to appease a woman.
Maddox would have barely believed it had he not witnessed it himself. "Women can't handle being spoiled. If you keep indulging her like this, you'll regret it eventually," Maddox remarked.
"Do you have a problem with how I treat her?" Nate shot him a frosty look.
"No. Why would I have a problem?" Maddox retorted with a sneer, leaning forward to flick his cigarette ash into the ashtray. "I'm just concerned you'll end up creating a troublemaker, and then you'll be the one dealing with the fallout." "Is this the wisdom you gained after your girlfriend left you?" Nate shot back sharply.
Traceable only at gVlnovo Maddox was left speechless. He couldn't believe Nate had the audacity to throw that in his face with such ruthlessness.
"Why are you so bitter?" Maddox asked, taking a deep drag from the cigarette that dangled from his lips, his gaze scrutinizing Nate from head to toe. "Could it be that you're sexually frustrated?" The room fell into a tense silence following his words. Saul, Matias, and Mandy didn't dare to breathe too loudly.
Despite their years apart, Maddox still dared to speak so boldly. He was the only one who could tease Nate so openly. Anyone else would have faced severe consequences by now.
Nate, sitting on the sofa, gave Maddox a measured look.
"Until the summit is over, do not let Corrine return to Lyhaton," he m instructed with a tone that brooked no argument.
Maddox reclined lazily on the sofa, arching an eyebrow slightly. "Are you sure you can sort but the issues in Lyhaton before the summit is over?" he asked.
