Chapter 422: Strategy of Winning Hearts
The night was deep, as Harry Hunter and his team drove back.Even though there were empty seats in the police car, Natalie Niles decided to sit in Harry Hunter’s car.
She didn’t dare to sit in the back seat—that was Harry Hunter’s designated spot, and none of his subordinates dared to sit beside him.
She sat in the front passenger seat and spoke softly with Connor. Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on ????????????????????·????????????????·????????????
"Connor, do you have a girlfriend?"
"Yeah, Cora. How’s that, pretty, right?"
"Mm, very pretty."
Natalie’s tone sounded quite sincere, which made Connor burst into laughter.
"Your face has healed well, seems like Johan Niles really has the skills!"
"Johan is very capable, he works hard in medicine and has a good mentor. He’ll definitely be able to help many people in the future."
"You and he don’t seem like real siblings. He’s studying medicine so hard, not just to heal and save people, but to earn more money! You’re genuinely kind-hearted, Natalie!"
Connor’s tone was full of admiration, finding Natalie to be a rare kind-hearted girl.
"I wonder who will be lucky enough to marry you in the future. You’ve always stayed the same all these years, always willing to help others!"
Natalie secretly glanced at Harry Hunter through the rearview mirror, seeing him with his head down, seemingly texting someone and not paying any attention to their chatter.
She turned her head and showed Connor a gentle smile: "You haven’t changed either, always good and reliable! Your girlfriend is great too, you two are made for each other, congratulations!"
Connor rarely heard others praise him like that, let alone praise his girlfriend. Now being complimented, he felt delighted and found Natalie even more agreeable.
"I noticed your smile is really beautiful, Natalie, you should smile more often, you’ll definitely charm a lot of men!"
Natalie touched her face: "Really?"
She instinctively looked at Harry Hunter through the rearview mirror, but he still didn’t look up, continuing to text.
"Of course! I’ve heard you’re the belle of the detective team, aren’t a lot of people pursuing you? Having trouble choosing?"
"No!"
Natalie hurriedly denied: "We’re just colleagues!"
"Why are you so nervous? I’m just kidding, does your precinct not allow inter-office romance?"
"Oh... hmm."
Natalie vaguely responded and changed the topic: "We didn’t catch Austin Winters today, what’s your plan next?"
She actually felt regret about not catching him, wanting to impress Harry Hunter, but unfortunately, the fugitive was too cunning.
Casual conversation was fine with Connor, but when Natalie asked about their plans, Connor swiftly diverted the topic: "Speaking of which, thanks a lot today, we looked pretty imposing! Your director initially said Kobe Charles would lead the team, why did it switch to you?"
"Captain Moore had some matters, so I replaced him. Why? Not happy with me?"
"Impossible, of course welcome!"
"That’s a relief!"
Natalie smiled charmingly, tucked her hair behind her ear, showing Connor her most beautiful profile: "I’ll be Miss Weaver’s bodyguard during the day and can take on missions at night. Just call me if anything comes up."
Connor didn’t catch the hint of her beauty, full of surprise, he asked: "You’re working that hard?"
Natalie looked slightly bewildered: "After leaving the special forces, it’s been very idle, I’m not really used to it. I always want to find something to do, otherwise, I feel useless."
