Chapter 426 Tensions Unveiled
Frey coughed, quickly brushed his hand away, and whispered, "There's someone here! What are you doing?"
Nathaniel was uncharacteristically amused, thoroughly enjoying Frey's shy reaction.
Sawyer's previously stern expression softened slightly as he greeted Frey with a smile, "So Mr. Nathaniel is here too. If I had known, I wouldn't have called. It's not urgent. Sorry for the disturbance."
Nathaniel sneered, "Not a big deal?"
"Mr. Sawyer, you should be more considerate of your partners in the future. Vault Corp is just a partner, not someone Frey needs to coddle."
"If you don't understand the material, figure it out yourself. Handle issues with the organizer on your own. Not everyone is here to clean up after your mistakes!"
Nathaniel's words were harsh. Frey wanted to interject, but he squeezed her hand tightly, his fingers cold and firm, silencing her. Sawyer remained unperturbed, lowering his head slightly towards Frey, "I didn't think it through. I'll be more careful in the future." Frey quickly smiled, "I'll...get that information for you, please wait a moment!"
She used her key card to open the door. Sawyer was about to follow her in, but Nathaniel stepped forward, almost blocking the doorway. Feeling the tension, Frey asked both men to wait on the sofa outside while she retrieved the information from the combination lock box inside. On the sofa, the two men faced each other, their intense auras filling the room.
Nathaniel glared at Sawyer, silently cursing him.
So you're the one pulling the strings behind all this! Let's see how well you can hide, boy. Believe it or not, I can make your life a living hell. Sawyer met his gaze with a slight smile, his eyes cold.
Why don't you try? Past wounds don't fade so easily. She forgot, but I'll make sure she remembers.

He nodded to Nathaniel and walked out.
Frey saw Sawyer out, then returned to sit beside Nathaniel, taking a deep breath. "Ask me anything you want to know."
Nathaniel frowned, hesitating. He knew that asking anything would shatter the fragile trust between them.
Time passed in silence.
Finally, Frey spoke softly, "Yes, I did collaborate with him before, and we were planning to..."
"Don't say it," Nathaniel interrupted in a low voice, "Don't say it."
He held her hand tightly, his fingers cold, sending a shiver through Frey.noveldrama
