Not long after, Nathan and Colin followed Wendy back to her house.
She tidied up two rooms for them to stay in temporarily.
After showering, Colin headed back to his room to rest, not wanting to interrupt the family bonding time.
Nathan and Wendy were catching up in the living room.
They talked about each other's lives. Nathan felt there was nothing much to say about his time in the military as all he did was train and fight. Hence, most of the things he said were related to Penny and Queenie.
She was totally engrossed in his story and commented on how he had started a family already.
As they chatted, Nathan found out that she was still single.
She explained that she had been putting all her efforts into studying and starting a business. He then advised her to put some thoughts into her marriage.
Wendy stroked her hair and muttered, "I have very high expectations for my other half. I'd rather be single if I don't find anyone suitable. Furthermore, even if I end up being single, I can stay with you when I'm old. I can be your nanny as long as I am fed."
Nathan looked at his pretty aunt, unsure of how to react. "Aunt, you must be joking. Countless men must be going after you! How can you end up single? But if it does happen, I'll take care of you. My parents aren't around anymore. You're one of the few relatives I have left."
She smiled brightly upon hearing that. "You still have some conscience! I did not pamper you in vain, after all."
At that moment, her phone rang. Upon informing Nathan, she picked up the call.
