Chapter 1337 Halma Isn’t Worthy of You
Meanwhile, at a coffee shop, Nathan looked at the woman in front of him. She was wearing
a floral dress and her makeup was done tastefully to enhance her delicate features. Her
chin was slightly raised as she gazed at Nathan while sizing him up. "What do you want
with me?"
Frankly, he felt a strong aversion to Lexie Snow's sense of superiority.
Had she forgotten how she climbed into his bed last night?
He had no memory of the part where she helped him back to her room, but when he woke
up midway, she was there, undressing him while wearing a revealing outfit.
He stared at her in utter confusion before frantically grabbing his own shirt and asking her
just what she was doing.
Yet, she showed no signs of panic and said that she had tasks assigned by both sets of
parents to complete.
She even pounced on him when he told her to leave.
At that moment, he was completely sobered up by the woman's brazenness. So, he

Unfortunately, he was too wasted, and the thought of spending an hour just to return
home drove him to rent another room in the hotel.
Now that he thought about it, she might have succeeded last night if he hadn't had
enough self-control.
Nonetheless, Nathan had no choice but to rely on her at the moment. So, he swallowed his
revulsion and tried his best to endure her presence near his vicinity.
He gathered his thoughts and looked at her once more. "You saw the trending search on
the internet, didn't you?"
Lexie responded, "I don't mind!"
Nathan furrowed his brow. "Well, I do mind. My girlfriend has misunderstood me, and I'm
here today to ask you to help me provide proof that we slept separately last night and that
nothing happened."
A frown marred her forehead as a hint of anger appeared on her face. It was as if the
beautiful image she had in her mind had suddenly shattered like an illusion.
So, he wasn't here to date her or to improve their relationship, but to explain the
misunderstanding to his girlfriend?
Hah! What a joke!
Lexie looked at him and said in a cold tone, "Do you know that our collaboration is based
on our marriage alliance?"
Nathan's frown deepened at her words. "What are you trying to say?"
Lexie leisurely took a sip of her coffee. "It means exactly as it sounds."
He was somewhat puzzled as he stared at her and inquired, "We don't even know each
other, let alone have any feelings for one another. Do you really want to gamble a lifetime
on someone like me who doesn't understand you?"
She smiled. "Why wouldn't I? Although you're two years younger than me, you're
handsome, have a good personality, and have recently been involved in the field of
artificial intelligence, which has great prospects. Besides, you also have the backing of the
Baker Enterprise. We're a good match, and there's nothing wrong with a marriage alliance.
As for feelings, we can develop them slowly after our marriage. It's not a big deal."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNathan had the feeling that they were having completely different conversations. "We only
met for the second time last night. How could you possibly know whether I have a good
personality? Have you seen me lose my temper? Have you seen me in a desperate
situation? Don't you think you're being rather one-sided by relying solely on some
information that can be found online? How could you claim to understand me just based
on information like that?"
Lexie simply continued, saying, "That's enough for me. As long as the external qualities
meet my requirements, I don't attach a great deal of importance to the person's internal
qualities. Marriage is just marriage, and it's up to you to decide who you want to spend
your life with. You don't understand me, so it's difficult for you to continue down this path.
However, we have ample time, and we can adapt to our circumstances. I believe you will
grow to like me."
He was thunderstruck by her confidence!
Did she think that marriage was akin to shopping for a pretty bag?
"I see. Then, I suppose you have no intentions of helping me out?"
She smiled at his naivety. "Why should I help my love rival? In fact, it's a good thing for me
if you break up with her. Nathan, we are meant to be together. Halma isn't worthy of you."
