Chapter 93

Natalie was speechless. “Still not getting it? It’s about people whose actions and logic don’t match. You and Jennifer are truly a perfect match–two lunatics.”

Natalie grabbed her bag and headed out.

It was strange, though. She would find Jennifer’s messages bombarding her every day when she picked up her phone, but it was all quiet last night. She wondered what happened.

Last night was such a beautiful night that Jennifer should definitely have bragged about how she was going to marry Easton.

At the doorstep, she ran into James who had returned from his morning jog.

James, dripping with sweat, smiled fondly. “Our little princess is up! Are you hungry? I will fix your favorite breakfast right away.”

“Natalie laughed and thanked her brother. “I’ll wait for you and Valerie in the dining room.” Natalie’s voice was sweet and her smile was genuine.

Easton could clearly see her genuine smile.

It turned out that Natalie, who seemed like nothing in their eyes, was like a princess to others.

Easton wasn’t aware of Natalie’s sharp business sense and decisive approach, which would make him a bit cautious.

Once a woman stopped being absorbed in romance, she became quite extraordinary.

James patted her head. “If you’re hungry, go ahead. I’ll join you soon. Valerie might be sleeping in. Learn to love yourself like she does. Don’t wake up so early and get up when you feel like it. Do whatever you want in the afternoon. I’m always here for you.”

As he was about to leave, James remembered something, “Oh, Natalie, remember those famous branded diamond earrings you liked a while back? They’re finally out. I’ve bought them for you and they’ll arrive in a few days. Our little princess deserves the best.”

“Thanks, brother.” Natalie was overjoyed; her voice was sweet.

Her eyes were filled with tears as she thought back to her past life, wondering how she lost those who loved her dearly.

It was because of her love-obsessed mind that she lost the ones who cared the most.

In the end, she led them to their downfall.

“Thank you, brother,” Natalie whispered in a voice trembling with emotion.

James’ eyes darkened slightly. “What’s wrong? Did Jennifer bully you again?”

Natalie shook her head quickly. “No, brother. I’m just really happy.”

“You scared me. Go to the dining room first. I’ll be there in a moment.” James quickly ran back to his room to freshen up.

Natalie giggled; her eldest brother was just too cute.

Easton watched the warm scene from earlier and felt a bit uneasy inside.

He stood at the door and asked gloomily, “Natalie, what’s really going on between you and him?”

It was then that Natalie remembered Easton was in her room.

Natalie looked at him displeased and said, “What’s this got to do with you?”

“Natalie, you’re still my wife and you’re getting all cozy with other men…” replied Easton.

“Easton, shut up! You have no right to talk about me or my brother. You’re the disgusting one, refusing a divorce while flirting with Jennifer. What right do you have to question me? Don’t come looking for me unless it’s about the divorce. Please!” replied Natalie.

Natalie was fed up and wished Easton would go to hell at that moment.

She walked away quickly and headed to the restaurant.

Easton watched her retreating figure with intense eyes and followed her.

When she arrived at the restaurant, the head chef greeted her with a smile, “Ms. Shawn, you’re here.”

Natalie smiled and nodded. “Leo, I’m starving. I’d like some lobsters.”

“Certainly! Mr. Shawn already reserved some. It’ll be ready soon. Please have a seat,” replied Leo.

Natalie found a window seat and sat down after she thanked Leo.

Then, Easton sat across from her.

Natalie was puzzled. “Easton, why won’t you leave me alone? Your face is so thick that even the ocean out front can’t hold it.”

Easton gave a cold smirk. “Natalie, your tongue just keeps getting sharper. You pretend to be a lady around me, but smile brighter than a flower with other men.”

Natalie was speechless and said, “It seems like you’ve forgotten what you said on the night we got our marriage license. You wanted a dutiful wife–someone who wouldn’t embarrass the Garcia family, so I gave up all my hobbies to be the perfect Mrs. Garcia.”

“Looking back, I was really foolish. Love isn’t about losing myself but learning to love myself more. Because of one sentence from you, I changed so much that I lost who I truly was,” added Natalie.

“I became unhappy. I admit that I was infatuated to totally focus on you. I only pestered you because Jennifer kept posting pictures of you two together, even intimate ones, which upset me. That was why I occasionally lashed out, hoping you’d care about me more,” added Natalie.

“But every time, you just called me dramatic, saying I was being immature and that I competed with Jennifer,” added Natalie.

“Did any of you ever consider my feelings? I’m an innocent party too. Why should your love come at the cost of my pain?” added Natalie.

“If it weren’t for that day when Jennifer put on a dramatic scene and you slapped me awake, I’d still be trapped in this mess,” added Natalie.

“So, Easton, I really won’t interfere with you two being head over heels for each other anymore,” added Natalie.

Natalie had said everything she needed to, and even what she didn’t. She didn’t expect Easton to believe her and just hoped he would divorce and disappear.

Easton clenched tightly his hands resting on his knees, which turned slightly pale.

“Natalie, who told you I kissed Jennifer?” Easton had never even touched a woman in his life.

Easton was as spotless as a slate.

Natalie rolled her eyes. “Easton, why are you pretending to be so innocent? Can’t even own up to what you’ve done?”

Natalie opened the chat between her and Jennifer.

“Look at these pieces of evidence, Easton. Aren’t you disgusted with yourself? These pieces of evidence are for my divorce case—proof of you two in bed and your provocative actions. I’m not scared to show you; I have backups anyway.”

She lived her life again just to tear apart Jennifer’s disgusting facade.

Easton picked up her phone with doubt in his mind and read Jennifer’s provocative messages to Natalie in the chat.

Jennifer: [Natalie, you’re trash, a little brat. How can you be worthy of Easton? Hurry back and get divorced.]

There were a lot of suggestive photos above.

The persons in each photo were Easton and Jennifer. His pupils shook in shock.

Every picture was very intimate, in which he held Jennifer tightly. He gazed at Jennifer with deep affection.

With a murderous look on his face, Easton scrolled up and found the words only got meaner.

Jennifer: [Natalie, you little brat. Do you think you can feel safe and sound just because you’re from the Simpson family? One day, I’ll make sure everyone around you despises you, even your four brothers. They’ll hate you forever and love me for a lifetime.]

Jennifer: [I will take away everything and everyone you care about.]

Jennifer: [Natalie, you’ll never be happy by stealing my man. How does it feel to be framed today? Did it hurt when Easton hit you? But really, what does it matter? Who would actually believe you?]

Easton gripped her phone tightly. He didn’t even know she had gone through all of this.

He quickly sent the photos that had hints of evidence in a text message to his phone.

The message didn’t send, so he removed himself from the blocked list.

He looked for so long that he couldn’t keep looking anymore. Finally, Easton stopped and looked deeply at Natalie, saying, “Natalie, what if I say none of this is true, would you believe me?”

Chapter 94

Natalie laughed angrily and mocked him. “Easton, are you joking? If you weren’t so deeply in love, how could you let Jennifer have her way all the time and believe everything she says?”

“And today, you came to me because of your mom’s poisoning. If I’m not mistaken, Jennifer probably gave you the evidence,” added Natalie.

“So, in the end, you chose to trust her and confro
