Sitting in the center, Nathan exuded a cold and dominant aura.
He silently drank, said no words, and didn’t interact with anyone. He even tried to maintain a distance from Valerie, who was seated right beside him.
Observing his demeanor, Valerie poured a glass of wine and proposed a toast.
“Boss, since we’re out for some fun, you should enjoy yourself. Would you mind if I propose a toast?”
She assumed that as the representative of the project, Nathan would accept her toast for the sake of the company’s reputation.
Surprisingly, Nathan merely cast her a cold glance and went on with his drink.
He didn’t even try to come up with a polite rejection.
Valerie’s expression changed a bit. She felt awkward and had to change the subject.
“Seems like you’re in the mood for some drinks tonight. Did you have a fight with Miss Simmons?”
Nathan paused for a moment, holding his glass.
The lively atmosphere suddenly turned serious due to this question.
The other CEOs all directed their gaze towards Nathan.

Everyone knew that Nathan and Lucinda were deeply in love. Many people present had even witnessed their affectionate display at the charity event.

His silence spoke volumes.

The party host answered Valerie on Nathan’s behalf, “Of course not.
Mr. Payne and Miss Simmons share a profound love. There couldn’t possibly be any dispute between them. I believe we’ll be attending their wedding soon!”
Nathan’s brows furrowed, and his posture stiffened.
Something inside him stirred, causing annoyance to well up within.
