Chapter 44
The men present were promiscuous as they discussed Caroline.
Nathan’s face was expressionless as the ash from his cigarette fell.
He was there for a business dinner that day. An executive beside him noticed that Nathan kept staring
at the dance floor, and he felt it was peculiar.
The head of the Faraday family was an abstinent man, but it was the first time he was seen gazing at a
woman.
“The two beauties on the dance floor look like university students, Mr. Faraday. It seems like you like
those types.”
Nathan bent down to flick the ash into an ashtray. “No, that’s my niece.”
“Oh, so the two are your nieces.” The executive, Kenneth Lowe, smiled meaningfully.
Nathan suddenly lost interest in smoking and threw the cigarette into the ashtray. He got up and left.
“Why are you leaving, Mr. Faraday?”
Soon, Kenneth realized Nathan was not leaving but entering the dance floor.
Kenneth thought, “Can I see Mr. Faraday dance in my lifetime? It seems those students are quite
attractive.”
Nathan strode to the dance floor. The men on the dance floor were crowded, and someone shouted
unhappily, “Who is it? Stop squeezing!”
They soon saw Nathan, who was wearing a black shirt and black trousers. The handmade and
expensive fabric was slightly wrinkled, but it made him look more mature and alluring. He was
obviously a high-ranking person in upper-class society. His domineering aura made people avoid him.
A few men quieted down and consciously parted to make way for him.
Nathan reached Caroline and stood behind her while Caroline danced with Yuliana with her back facing
Nathan.
The girl on the dance floor was indeed tempting. She would sway along the music, her slender waist
and bottom moving like a snake. Even though she was not interacting with the surrounding men, she
nearly made them drool.
She was truly capable of mesmerizing the crowd.
As Nathan stood behind her, he watched the girl move her youthful body.
Yuliana swung her head and saw Nathan. She was shocked and felt dizzy, thinking she saw an illusion.
She exclaimed inwardly, “Oh my god, Uncle Nathan is here! Why do I meet him everywhere I go?”
“Carol. Uncle Nathan is here!”
It was so noisy that Caroline could not hear what Yuliana said. “What did you say?”
“Uncle Nathan! Uncle Nathan is right behind you!” Yuliana pointed to the back.
Caroline turned around, confused, and bumped into a sturdy body.
It was not her fault. It was the man behind her. He stood behind her quietly and was so close to her that
he was almost stuck to her.
“It’s him! It’s Nathan!” Caroline thought.
Caroline did not expect to meet him on the dance floor in the bar. Her eyelashes trembled as she
uttered, “Mr. Faraday.”
After that, she stepped back and widened the distance between them.
Nathan looked at her coldly. “Who allowed you to take my niece to the bar to dance?”
“It’s not Carol’s fault, Uncle Nathan. I brought her here!” Yuliana immediately explained.
“Am I talking to you? Shut your mouth.”
Yuliana became silent at once. NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
Nathan looked at Caroline again and said, “Dance. Weren’t you enjoying yourself just now?”
“Why is he lecturing me again?” Caroline grumbled inwardly.
Caroline was really fed up with his bad temper. She looked at him and argued, “I can come here to
dance as I like, Mr. Faraday. I think you care way too much.”
“How dare she talk back!” Nathan pondered.
Nathan’s eyes darkened, and he suddenly bent his tall figure. His thin lips leaned closer to her ears,
and he whispered, “You’re quite the dancer, Caroline.”
