Chapter 233

Natalie curved her lips into a slight smile, her bright eyes twinkling with amusement. "Talk about what? There’s nothing to discuss between us except divorce."

Easton’s heart tightened at the word "divorce." Anger burned in his eyes; he didn’t want a divorce. “Grandpa and grandma won’t agree to us getting divorced. They care about you dearly. Have you so quickly forgotten how good they’ve been to you?”

Easton didn’t look at Natalie. He felt guilty, knowing his excuse was flimsy, but it was the only one he had.

When a person stopped caring, nothing could be her weakness. She used to care about the Simpson family and showed a lot of tolerance, but now she didn’t care about anything anymore.

Natalie didn’t care about anything anymore. Nothing could threaten her.

Thinking of Emma, Natalie felt conflicted. “I haven’t forgotten how good Grandpa and Grandma were. Their kindness is not related to you. I can still visit them after our divorce."

Easton furrowed his brows but didn’t say anything, just looked at her intently.

“Easton, why didn’t you wait for me? I’m wearing high heels, and I just twisted my ankle. It really hurts.” Jennifer walked up to Easton, holding onto his arm affectionately.

Easton didn’t refuse. He just gave her a glance and said, “The paths here aren’t easy to walk on. Why are you wearing high heels? Go back and change. I’ll wait for you here.”

Hearing this, Natalie realized they were sharing a room, and her heart ached involuntarily.

Even though she knew they’d been involved for a while, it still made her sad. After all, she had truly loved Easton, so feeling the pain was natural.

Jennifer smiled warmly. “Easton, it’s okay. I’ll change when we reach the filming location. My manager got plenty of shoes for me,” she said, glancing at Natalie.

She didn’t react at all, as indifferent as if they were just strangers. Natalie had really changed. She genuinely didn’t want anything to do with Easton anymore.

Natalie ignored the couple’s affection and stepped quickly into the elevator when it arrived.

Jennifer grabbed Easton’s hand and hurried into the elevator, too. A trace of malice flashed in Jennifer’s eyes.

“Oops!” She pretended to lose her balance and fell into Easton’s arms.

Easton frowned but still held Jennifer gently, saying, “Be careful.”

His gaze shifted to Natalie, and he saw her bright smile, as beautiful as the melting of snow and the arrival of spring – stunningly beautiful.

She was looking down at her phone, and a message from someone had her smiling like she was in love.

Jennifer noticed it too. Natalie’s beautiful face no longer hid her emotions, making Jennifer jealous.

She took the opportunity to say, “Easton, look at Natalie’s expression. It’s like she’s in love, she’s smiling so happily. Who’s the good-looking guy on the other end making her so joyful?”

Implying that Natalie was chatting with some random guy, Natalie had just replied to Jacob’s message. His grandma’s condition was quite good.

She heard Jennifer’s words and suddenly looked up, raising her hand. Jennifer’s face bore the brunt of a hard slap.

Jennifer’s eyes widened in disbelief. “Natalie, you hit me!"

Natalie said, “I slapped you because you deserved it. Why does garbage come out every time you open your mouth?”

“You–”

Natalie interrupted her with a smile, her eyes wide with anger as she taunted. “You’re so eager to be the other woman, and you’re constantly trying to set me up?

“You’re always seen with Easton every day, and that’s enough proof that you’re the other woman. Just wait for your movie to premiere.

“I’ll expose your pictures together, give those bedroom photos you sent me to the press, and then reveal Easton’s marriage license. Jennifer, your life will be hell from then on.

“And your face is as tough as a rock in a latrine; no matter how hard I try, you won’t feel anything.

“If I hear you speak lies about me again, I’ll make sure those white teeth of yours disappear for good.” Jennifer was so angry she could spit blood. She thought Natalie had gone crazy. “Natalie, you’re crazy.”

“That’s right. I’m crazy. If I weren’t, you and your group of cheaters would’ve crushed me completely.” Natalie said, her gaze icy.

“Jennifer, I’m warning you. You set me up once, and I’ll hit you once. I survived just to drag you all down to hell with me.” Once Natalie finished speaking, the elevator doors opened. She walked away like she didn’t recognize anyone.

Easton chased after her and blocked Natalie’s path with a firm stance. “Natalie, where are you going?” Natalie frowned, really annoyed by him.

“Easton, you’re truly getting on my nerves. Can you just stay away from me?” Natalie snapped, exasperated.

Seeing the impatience in her eyes, Easton finally realized that Natalie really didn’t love him anymore. “You’re my wife. I have the right to know where you’re going.”

Natalie laughed in irritation, feeling somewhat oppressed by his overbearing presence. She mocked, “Easton, when you spend 1.5 million dollars a month on your mistress, do you ever remember there’s a wife at home?”

Jennifer walked over with a smile. “Natalie, Easton willingly gave me that money. I saved his life, and I’m the one he loves the most. If he doesn’t spend his money on me, then who should he spend it on?”

Jennifer looked at her with arrogance, her face full of defiance. Natalie was disgusted by her shamelessness.

Natalie said, “Jennifer, don’t worry, feel free to spend it all. Once the two years are up, I’ll file for divorce, and I’ll take back everything he gave you during the marriage. Easton may adore you, but I have the marriage license.”

Natalie’s smile was dazzling, and she was in a great mood. She looked at Easton and said, “Mr. Garcia, the more you give her, the more I’ll take back later.” Natalie walked away with a bright smile.

Jennifer’s eyes were filled with intention to kill. She thought, ‘Natalie, if I kill you here, I’m afraid not even your remains would be found.’

Easton glared angrily at Natalie’s retreating figure, completely missing the murderous look in Jennifer’s eyes.

After Natalie went out, she headed straight to the hospital.

Jennifer texted Oliver, telling him to keep an eye on Natalie, and then asked Easton to drive her to the film set.

Chapter 233

When Natalie arrived at the hospital, Tiana was still waiting outside the emergency room. She hadn’t had time to speak before the emergency room doors swung open.

Vance was wheeled out, lying motionless on the bed.

Tiana looked at the attending doctor and asked, “Doctor, how is he? Is his leg damaged?”

The doctor was taken aback, surprised by the bluntness of the question.

He replied. “This gentleman’s leg isn’t damaged. After the surgery, he won’t be able to do any heavy work for six months, and he’ll never be able to run or jump again. It all depends on his recovery later.”

Tiana carefully asked again, “Will he die?”
