Limited Time Marriage: Nice to Meet You Mr. Foster

Chapter 381: Chapter 280: Nathan Foster’s Obscure Love

South Grant was in no mood for jokes with him and immediately replied.

"You teamed up with Langston Caldwell to mess with me?"

"Do you know which bird among the avians flies the highest?"

South Grant stared at Nathan Foster’s message, somewhat dazed, and soon Nathan sent a second one.

"It’s a type of vulture in the eagle family, capable of flying over the spine of the world, Mount Everest. Do you know what the vulture mother does when it’s teaching the young to fly?"

South Grant looked at Nathan Foster’s message, feeling a difficult-to-express sensation in his heart at this moment.

"After the chicks are fed by the older birds for a period, they’re pushed off the highest rock. The mother watches them fall in panic, gradually unfolding their wings and slowly learning to fly. During this process, the vulture mother is more terrified than the young vultures. They might fall to their death, but if they don’t learn to fly, if they don’t learn survival skills, they’ll also perish in this world where the fittest survive, and their deaths will be even grimmer."

South Grant silently read the long passage Nathan Foster sent, speechless for a long time.

At this moment, Langston Caldwell came over and saw the message on South Grant’s phone.

Langston rarely spoke seriously:

"Do you know what I asked Lynn when she invited me over?"

South Grant looked up at Langston.

"What?"

"I asked him, for a girl who has him to protect her in the future, why work so hard?" Langston glanced at South Grant, "Can you guess what he said?"

South Grant looked at him, "What did he say?"

"He said no one can be with anyone for a lifetime. He has his responsibilities; if the country needs him, if the mission requires it, he must be ready to sacrifice at any moment. If at that time he can’t protect you, this society will make you suffer greatly."

Listening to Langston’s words, South Grant felt a pang in his nose, tears welling up.

For some reason, his heart felt intensely bitter.

"When you were ten, your parents weren’t around. During the most crucial years of your life where they should’ve been guiding you, they were absent, leaving you with the burden of your brother and sister, no one to guide you, no direction given. Now you think about taking back what belongs to your father and handing it to your brother. But if you accomplish all this and lose your goal, what will you do? You’ll be confused and lost on the path of life. You were born to live for yourself, not for anyone else. This should be your life’s principle and goal."

South Grant looked up at Langston, "Did he tell you these things?"

South Grant’s voice was slightly trembling.

"I’ve known him for seven years. Some things don’t need to be said for me to see them. Before I came, I already understood what kind of person I was supposed to teach."

Seven years?

Counting it, it’s been over ten years since I’ve known Nathan Foster.

Yet it seems I’ve never really understood him.

Why did he treat me that way in the past life?

Was it really to vent due to the grudges between him and my grandfather?

South Grant couldn’t quite figure it out. If it was to vent anger, Fiona Grant and Seth were both related to my grandfather; why did Nathan Foster only treat me that way?

South Grant increasingly felt that the past decade was like a haze, unable to see anything clearly while surrounded by it.
