Chapter 993
"I'm telling you, Nathan is Lincoln's kid-born out of wedlock. Nobody in the family really treats him right."
Nathalie felt a pang in her chest. She'd always suspected Nathan was starved for affection. But she wasn't about
to let it slide. She shot Arthur a sharp look and said, “How can you call him illegitimate? Lincoln never married
anyone, did he? Doesn't that just mean he truly loved Morris's mother? If he loved her that much, don't you think
he'd love her son too?"
Arthur hesitated, going quiet for a second.
"Maybe you're right," he conceded, "but whenever | see Lincoln, he never seems all that warm toward Nathan."
Nathalie's nails dug into her palm. "You're just not seeing the whole picture. Slove runs deep-it's just
hidden," she argued, her voice tight. "What father doesn't care about his own son?"
Arthur grew uneasy, her words hitting a little too close to home. If Lincoln truly cared for Morris, then surely he'd
notice how Arthur treated him. Would Lincoln be disappointed in him? Lincoln was never one to show his
feelings, after all.
After making her point, Nathalie leaned back and closed her eyes, pretending to rest.
The car pulled up to the Sharp family home, and immediately, a small army of housemaids swarmed out to greet
the young master. One opened the car door for Mike, another grabbed his briefcase, a third helped him off with
his coat, and someone else waited patiently with a pair of slippers.
Nathalie stared, completely stunned by Mike's pampered lifestyle.
"Wow, Mike, you're really living the good life, huh?"

Arthur shot her a surprised look, eyebrow raised. "What, don't tellAshley doesn't have a bunch of staff
waiting on her too?"
Nathalie grinned. "I can handle things myself, thanks. No need to waste good help." She laughed and sauntered
inside like she owned the place.
It was as if she'd just chome.
Arthur scoffed. “Are you making fun of me?”
"Con, this is your house, isn't it? How cyou act like it's mine?"
"You're supposed to wait at the door while | go ask the elders if you can cin."
Nathalie stopped in her tracks and looked back at him, eyebrow arched. "Do your friends have to go through all
that trouble when they visit?"
Arthur replied, "My friends? Of course not. But you're not my friend."
Nathalie just smiled. "That's fine. I'm not here for you anyway. Morris is the one I'm visiting-we're good friends."
Arthur's face turned red with irritation. "You give Morris way too much credit. He's barely accepted around here,
and you're just an outsider!"
Nathalie's eyes went cold. "Even you, as the illegitimate son, get to invite your own friends over. Why can't the
real eldest son do the s2
going in, whether you like it or not." s
