Chapter 268
Despite seeing Felicity standing very close to Nash, Hera still had a happy and excited smile on her
face. She immediately pulled Yvonne aside for a chat.
She believed that Nash was not the type to be easily swayed by other women.
However, seeing the man she loved getting close to another woman did stir a hint of jealousy in her
heart.
“What is it? Do I know you that well?”
Nash gave Felicity an annoyed look.
“Ah… Never mind… Never mind… Hehehe!”
Felicity realized that Nash did not want his family to know, so she awkwardly smiled and stayed
silent.
She had boasted many times in front of her grandfather, but none of it was ever true.
This time, she could genuinely brag in front of him.
Liam glanced at the time and said with a smile, “Laurie, James, it’s getting late. I need to return to the
company to handle some matters. Let’s continue this another day!”
Lauren nodded and responded, “Alright, Liam. Be safe on the road!”

James, on the other hand, began discussing Nash with Harrison.
“Harri, who exactly is this Nash?”
The more James saw of Nash, the more enigmatic he appeared.
Especially when Mr. Deacon from the Special Security Institution’s Ninth Division shook Nash’s hand.
He had noticed a hint of wariness in Judas’ eyes.
What kind of person could make the head of the Ninth Division cautious?
“Oh, him… He’s the son-in-law I picked up!”
Harrison had drunk quite a bit with James that evening, and the relationship between the two had
greatly improved.
Seeing James address him more warmly made Harrison quite pleased.
Moreover, he wanted to leverage James’ influence in the Mare family to encourage Lauren to visit her
elderly parents.
So, he told James about Nash owning the Skyes’ platinum membership card and how he had
purchased the 7nm photolithography machine.
After hearing Harrison’s words, James was genuinely surprised.
He had not expected Nash to have such a background.
He realized that he had been putting on an intimidating front before Nash earlier, only to find out he had
been making a fool of himself.
The night grew darker.
Maria prepared the beds for James and Yvonne and then went home after her shift.
Yvonne insisted on sleeping with Hera, leaving Nash alone in his room.
At 3:00 am, in the deep silence of the night, a man in a suit slowly approached the back of the villa.
One of his hands was pressed against the wall while the other held his belly.
“Damn… When will this dysentery suffering end?”
Having said that, he quickly dashed to a nearby green area to relieve himself.
After three minutes of struggling, he frantically searched his pockets to find…
He had not brought any tissue.
Trembling, he reached out to pick some leaves.
However, at that moment, a hand handed him a stack of tissues.

})
The man in the suit, thinking it was someone from a neighboring bush, unconsciously thanked him.
However, a second later, he realized something was amiss.
There was no one around when he arrived, and he would have definitely noticed if someone had
approached while he was relieving himself.
“Who are you?”
The man in black quickly finished up, pulled up his pants, and stood.
In front of him was a man in pajamas.
It was Nash.
Coincidentally, Nash had gotten up in the middle of the night to use the restroom and happened to
notice someone approaching the villa.
He followed the man, saw him having a stomach upset, and realized he had no tissue.
Nash immediately remembered the person who had tried to steal Yvonne’s crystal ball.
“Failed the first time and you’re trying again?”
