He was curious about how Nathalie managed to persuade this honest and straightforward man to risk his own reputation so willingly.
The man reminisced, recalling the day Nathalie made him a promise that really touched him.
With determination, he said, "She promisedthis: she entrustedwith the most important person in her life, and as long as I could ensure your safety, she would protect my family, so I'd have nothing to worry about."

And eventually, everything fell into place just as he hoped.
He won her over, and together they roamed the campus, discussing poetry from across the ages, truly in harmony and deeply in love.
If not for his illness, which tested their love to the brink, he and Greta might never have becso twisted.

Cindy, tearfully, pleaded, "Ma'am, this dance is for my performance tomorrow for my dance teacher.1 didn't mean anything else. Nathalie said if perfected this dance, the teacher would surely takeas a student." Her fair skin glowed ethereally in the moonlight.
