After they finished talking, the two of them remmed their game.
Nathan subconsciously gazed at Olivia’s slender figure. At that moment, the seemed to radiate a vibrant charm.
This was also the first time he had seen her laugh so carefreely since she returned to the country, her demeanor reminiscent of her high school days.
Back then, there was a period when she had let her guard down a bit. Her face was often adorned with a smile that was as vivid and radiant as it was at that moment.
Before Nathan realized it, her smile at that moment overlapped with the one he remembered in his mind’s
eye.
An unusual emotion flickered within his heart, and Nathan couldn’t help but fall into a daze, the look in his dark, pensive eyes became more inscrutable than ever.
Olivia was oblivious to the changes in Nathan’s state of mind. She accompanied Liam to play a few more rounds of the game before recalling they had left Nathan ignored and alone at one side.
She quickly turned her head and happened to meet his gaze.
Taking in the look in his eyes, Olivia felt her heart inexplicably shudder.
Nathan quickly averted his gaze and didn’t stare at her further.
When Olivia returned to her senses, she recalled the look he had given her. She slightly furrowed her brows, wondering if he also wanted to play.
She hesitated for a while before finally gathering the courage to ask, “Mr. Carter, would you like to give this game a try?”
Give this game a try? Nathan raised an eyebrow, looking at her with a hint of skepticism.
At that moment, Olivia remembered that he didn’t know how to play. She let out a dry laugh and said, “Forget it. I’ll accompany Liam to play.”
“I can give it a try,” Nathan said.
Olivia asked uncertainly, “Are you sure?”
Nathan hummed in agreement and gestured for Olivia to vacate the seat.
He had been standing there watching for quite a while, and it certainly wasn’t for nothing.
The game console only had a few buttons to begin with. One he had identified which one was for jumping,

As per his wish, Olivia willingly gave up her seat to him.

She glanced at him, leaned toward Liam’s car, and whispered, “You should go easy on your daddy.”
Olivia genuinely didn’t want to witness Nathan suffer an overwhelming defeat.
Upon hearing those words, Nathan was immediately displeased. “Liam, there’s no need to go easy on me. Play at your usual level.”
Since he had already spoken thus, Olivia pouted and refrained from further comment. She then stepped aside to watch the two play.
“Daddy, I won’t be holding back.” With that, Liam started the game.
No matter how Olivia viewed it, the sight of Nathan, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, sitting in front of the gaming console seemed out of place.
After hearing what Nathan said, Olivia thought he’d be quite impressive, considering Liam had inherited half his intelligence from Nathan.
Unexpectedly, Nathan was ultimately an amateur. Unable to grasp the game initially, he lost to Liam in three consecutive rounds.
“Daddy, you should hit it like this,” Liam instructed his father like a teacher.
Nathan listened intently and soon began to gain the upper hand.
“Daddy, you’re so impressive!” Liam’s compliment caused Nathan to curl his lips into a faint smile.
That was Nathan’s first time playing that game, and he found that game to be surprisingly interesting. “Let’s go again,” he said.
Liam quickly nodded. “Okay.”
Olivia watched Nathan quietly, feeling he finally seemed more human. His features were laced with gentleness, and his usual sternness was now replaced by tenderness.
Yet, this tenderness was a quality Olivia had never been able to evoke from him.
