Natalie returned with two coffee mugs in her hands, her heart racing and her mind anxious about what her grandpa and Justin might have been discussing. 'I hope he didn't expose my lies,' she thought nervously. 'If he did, he can forget about me helping him find Aiden Handrix. I wouldn't mind spending my life with an invisible husband—it's better that way. Having a man in my life seems annoying anyway.'
As she entered the room, she found the two men sitting quietly. Her heart skipped a beat, fearing that something unexpected had happened.
"You're back?" Albert said, breaking the silence. "Hurry up, don't keep my grandson-in-law waiting for a simple coffee."
Hearing this, Natalie felt a wave of relief. She forced a light smile and approached Justin, offering him one of the mugs. "Darling, for you."
