"Serene, don't forget that there are people keeping an eye on our words and actions. As the President's fiancee, how could I not personally bring you back?" Nathaniel Cooper said in a deep voice.
Since he had spent an entire day being away from Karen Joy Kyle already, how many extra minutes have to wait? He needed to act properly, if not, his efforts so far would go to waste.
"Alright then." Serene Silas didn't say anything else. She couldn't hide her worry and concern in her eyes when she looked at Nathaniel.
On the way back to Serene's place, their car drove in the middle of a convoy. They had a security car in front of them, and another security car behind them. It attracted a lot of attention.
"Look, it's Mr. President, and he's sending Miss Silas back to the Silas home again." There were people who noticed them as they drove by.
"Yeah, yeah, Mr. President is a really considerate man. He will always personally send Miss Silas home." One of the citizens praised.
"Sigh, if you ask me who I've been jealous of in my life, it's Miss Silas. Not only is she beautiful, but she found a fiance who loves her very much. They would make the perfect pair of husband and wife." Another citizen praised them as well.
In the eyes of Country As citizens, President Nathaniel and his fiancee, Serene, were a couple made in heaven. The two of them appeared perfect for each other.
The most enviable thing was that the President cared so much for Miss Silas. The two of them would show affection to each other in front of the camera from time to time, which caught a lot of positive attention from the citizens.
However, the scene in the car was completely different from what people saw. Nathaniel and Serene sat at the back of the car, and one sat on the far left and the other sat on the far right. The distance between them was like two strangers who completely didn't know each other.
He looked at the front of the car, and she looked out of the window. They didn't look at each other, and there was no trace of the intimacy they showed when they were in front of the camera.
Not only did they sit far away from each other, but neither of them also spoke along the way. They appeared so unfamiliar with each other that they felt like strangers.
When they were about to arrive at the Silas house, Serene wanted to say something. In the end, she broke the silence. "Nathaniel, did something happen to that little girl?"
Although Nathaniel's performance when he accompanied the foreign envoy today was still remarkable, Serene could see that he was hiding something in his heart.
There were not many things that could affect Nathaniel's mood, and there were even fewer people who could affect his mood.
In the past few years, he had learned many things, including controlling and managing his emotions. He really mastered this aspect.
Nathaniel was very good at controlling his emotions and expressions. No matter when he was always able to welcome people with a smile on his face.
Others might not be able to tell, but Serene could see that even though he had been smiling the entire time when they were with the foreign envoy, she could see that he was distracted.
The only person who could distract him on such an important occasion was that little girl from the Kyle family. Other than her, she couldn't think of anyone else.
"We're here." Nathaniel retracted his gaze from the front and turned his head to look at her. "You must be tired from today. Go to bed early after you get home."
Nathaniel didn't answer her because he didn't want to talk too much about Karen Joy in front of outsiders.
"Nathaniel..." Serene bit her lip. "If the little girl misunderstood our relationship, I can explain it to her."
"There's no need. I'll take care of her matters myself. I don't need anyone to help me." Nathaniel turned down her offer immediately.
The girl didn't know his true identity yet, and even if she knew, it was only appropriate if he explained things to her.
Serene's face turned pale, "Then I'll go now."
