"Aren't you going to ask where I got the formulas, or what my plans are for the factory?" Vera couldn't help but ask. He was being way too agreeable this time. She wasn't used to it.
Nathaniel said nonchalantly, "I trust your abilities. I'm sure you've thought through anything you decide to do. Besides, you're spending money you earned yourself on this. If it succeeds, great. If it fails, I'll still be here to provide for you. What is there to ask?"
Vera whimpered softly and snuggled into his arms. "Nathaniel, you're the best!"
The corner of Nathaniel's mouth twitched. "Are you just now realizing how great I am?"
Vera giggled and planted a kiss on his face. "Actually, I discovered a long time ago that you're pretty great whenever you're not being a pervert!"
"We'll have to agree to disagree on that. Even if you think I'm being a pervert when I get close to you, you should feel honored." He shot her a sidelong glance and added, "After all, you're the only one I'm a pervert for."
