Chapter 115
Nathan withdrew his hand expressionlessly, masking his thoughts, which were in turmoil.
It was too left field for him to have such random, uncontrollable urges.
“I should calm down!” he told himself.
Nathan stood up with a grave expression and went to the bathroom.
Nathan was not beside Emilia when she woke up once again. She was just wondering where he had gone when a strange man sat down and smiled.
at her.
“Ms. Saunders, are you alone?”
Emilia wanted to respond but decided to smile without speaking after a moment’s consideration, since she was indeed alone.
The man chuckled affably after sensing her wariness. “Forgive me for being so abrupt. Allow me to introduce myself. I’m Henry, the vice–chairman of Hawkins Group. Are you also heading to Acocester to participate in the New Media Summit, Ms. Saunders?”
Emilia’s brows, which were furrowed, relaxed slightly after hearing what he had to say.
“Yes.”
“That’s great. Why don’t we go together, Ms. Saunders? It’s not safe for you to be alone. Why don’t we exchange contact numbers?”
Emilia contemplated it for a moment and didn’t refuse in the end. After all, it might be beneficial in the future since Hawkins Group’s strength was in the construction sector.
Nathan’s expression fell when he returned and caught sight of a man chatting up Emilia on the seat he’d vacated from a distance.
It became even stormier when he saw Emilia exchanging contacts with at smile on her face.
“My, my. Could Mr. Miller be jealous?” Shawn witnessed everything from his seat in the last row of first–class seats and almost froze from the biting cold emanating from Nathan.

Nathan strode swiftly to Emilia and Henry, his eyes two glacial orbs.
Are both of you done talking?”
Henry acted overly familiar with Nathan when he saw that it was him and initiated a conversation.
“Mr. Miller, what a coincidence. Do you remember me? I’m Henry. We met at Yanduff Group’s 100th–anniversary celebration.”
Nathan eyed him coldly. “I don’t.”
Henry’s smile froze on his face awkwardly.
Before he could recover his bearings, Nathan stared at him briefly and uttered faintly, “It’s coming back to me. Aren’t you the one whose face got scratched by his wife on the spot because he brought a young model as an escort to the event?”
His words almost caused Henry to vomit blood from embarrassment.
“You must be joking, Mr. Miller. That’s…”
“Besides the young model, you also brought an infamous actress along, right?” Nathan’s chiseled face was distant as his line of sight fell on Emilia meaningfully, who pursed her lips when she felt it on her.
“Good gracious, is he reminding me not to associate with such a man? Do my interactions with others have anything to do with him, anyway?” she mused.
Nathan’s statement caused not just Henry, but all the passengers in first class to feel second–hand embarrassment. Even those who’d initially planned on mediating lowered their heads and kept silent.
Shawn observed the scene before him and sighed internally. “Mr. Miller sure is a force to behold when he’s jealous and not to be trifled with!”
“You should go.”
Nathan’s sharp gaze pierced Henry, who returned to his seat with his tail. between his legs now that he’d lost face and was too ashamed to remain. there longer.

Working, eyeing Emilia. “You have terrible taste in men.
Is he chastising me now?” she mused.
Emilia’s cherry–red lips formed a meaningful smile. “You’re right, Mr. Miller. It’s absolutely deplorable.”
Nathan’s expression froze momentarily at the mocking look on her face.
He became troubled when he realized he had included himself in the picture.
“The gall of that woman to speak with a sting in her words when he was acting out of concern in giving her a reminder!”
