Nate walked into Julia's office, sitting beside her. "We need to talk."
Julia continued working, not bothering to look up. "About?"
"Rylee and Casey's grandfather and his friends know the one thing that no one else can figure out. The origin of powers. We need to know," Nate stated.
Julia laughed and looked over at him. "Oh, we need to, do we?"
Nate smiled and rolled his eyes, giving her a look. "Yes. We do."
"Okay, so why are you asking me? It's not like I'm in charge of the company," Julia asked.
"Not technically, but you're almost Steven's wife." He added in a mutter, "Unfortunately..."
Julia heard and stopped working, turning to face him. "Unfortunately?"
"I mean... The girls I'm interested in always get whisked off by much more attractive guys," Nate explained, smiling sheepishly.
"Oh..." Julia stated. "Anyways, what does our wedding have to do with the origin thing?"
"Well, you can basically influence him in any way you'd want, I'd think-" Nate began.
Julia held up a hand and he stopped, though confused. "I will never...manipulate him, Nathaniel Potvin. I might have asked, but if you want to know so badly that you're willing to ask me to manipulate my almost husband, just ask Richard yourself."
Nate sighed. "Julia-"
"I know. You're concerned. You have a motive. But leave us out of your plan," Julia cut him off, going back to working.
There were several seconds of silence. The only sound was Julia typing on her computer as she worked.
"You know, don't you?" Nate asked.
Julia froze. "Know...know what?"
"The origin."
Julia bit her lip. "I think it's time you left, Nathan. I'm not being interrogated, so you have no right to ask me that. Good day."
She turned off her computer and walked out. Nate's eyes widened. So she did... But how?
