Chapter 560
Winter pretended not to understand what Nathan meant.
Her first instinct was to touch the tip of her nose, but then she remembered how good Nathan was at reading little gestures like that.
He would definitely tease her about it.
So at the last second, she changed course and patted Richie on the head instead.
Nathan caught the movement out of the corner of his eye and gave a quiet scoff.
“You could grab William’s ass right now and it still wouldn’t hide how guilty you look p>
“What’s wrong with you?” William muttered, giving him a kick under the table.
Winter immediately covered Richie’s ears and hurried toward the restroom at the back of the private room.
She turned around and glared at Nathan.
“Have some shame. You’re old enough to know better p>
“Old?” Nathan lowered his arms and drawled, “I’m still younger than your ex-boyfriend p>
Ex-boyfriend.
Winter’s arms tightened slightly around Richie.
Then, as though nothing had happened, she turned on the faucet and adjusted the water temperature.
That was probably how Chris had introduced himself to Nathan.
It was hardly something to brag about.
Why had he even brought it up?
She was so distracted that she didn’t notice William walking over.
He looked at the water running from the faucet.
“What are you doing? Planning to flood the place p>
“I was just about to wash my hands,” Winter said stubbornly.
William looked at her.
She appeared perfectly calm, but he knew better.
“Give him to me. Wash your hands and go eat p>
He took Richie from her arms.
Afterward, William put Richie in the high chair and fastened the safety straps.

He sat on Richie’s left.
Winter sat on his right.
Nathan took the seat diagonally across from them.
A faint smile tugged at Nathan’s lips.
After lunch, Winter planned to take Richie to see Wendy.
She had invited Wendy to eat with them, but Wendy had an interview that day and had only just finished lunch with her coworkers nearby.
Nathan looked half asleep already.
He yawned.
“I’m going back to sleep p>
Winter looked at William, who had put his mask and cap back on.
“What about you? Are you coming with me p>
William checked the time.
“My driver should be here soon. I need to stop by the family estate. My brother wants to see me, so I’ll drop Nathan off on the way p>
“Okay p>
After they split up, Winter drove to the place Wendy had mentioned.
In the other car, William glanced at Nathan, who was leaning against the window and looked seconds away from falling asleep.
“What did Chris ask you p>
Nathan didn’t respond for several seconds.
William clicked his tongue.
Only then did Nathan open his eyes slightly.
“He tried to get information out of me about Winter’s condition p>
“And then p>
“And then what p>
Nathan yawned.
“I told him he needed therapy, so he had me thrown out p>
William was speechless.

Nathan leaned back in his seat and closed his eyes again.
“Be careful around Chris p>
Meanwhile, Wendy couldn’t get enough of Richie.
She kept squeezing his cheeks, kissing his little hands, and even leaned in to smell him.
“Stop acting like a creep,” Winter said, pinching Wendy’s lips together.
Wendy swatted her hand away.
Then she suddenly remembered something.
“Oh, right. I told Sam you were back p>
Wendy looked at Winter.
“He really wants you to come back to the station. Your old position is still open. He said he always had a feeling you might come back someday, so he asked me to find out whether you’d be interested p>
Winter was surprised.
She had always loved working as a reporter at the station.
She had only resigned because she had no other choice at the time.
But Sam didn’t have the authority to keep a position open indefinitely.
Even if he had wanted to save the job for her, there was no way the station’s management would have agreed to leave it vacant for this long.
Winter lowered her eyes.
Someone else had clearly made sure the position was still there for her.
