"He... He's got something to take care of... He'll come later."
Hera was extremely nervous.
This was her first time meeting Nash's father.
The oppressive feeling from his military attire was just too strong.
She seemed so weak in comparison!
Everyone at Hera's table kept their heads down, not daring to meet Philix's gaze.
Even Euria and Lumi were the same.
Then, Philix caught a glimpse of Hera's slightly bulging belly, and his heart skipped a beat.
Holy shit?
Was he going to be a grandfather?
If there were not so many people around, he would have burst into laughter.
Philix grinned and headed straight for his own table.
Hera finally breathed a sigh of relief.
However, the others at the table looked at her with confusion.
Isadora whispered, "Hera, does Nash know the North Warden?"
Just now, her father said Nash did not have any political connections, so it would be hard to get into the limelight.
Well, was the North Warden not a big enough deal?
Hera nodded. "Nash treated the North Warden before!"
Isadora's eyes lit up. "If Nash joins the Northern Territory, he can at least become a major. Maybe he'll even have a chance to become the next Warden!"
The hopeful look in her eyes was as if she was expecting her man to have some success.
