Chapter 483
Annabelle's heart squeezed at the thought of Jeremy. She didn't believe he would truly harm her. They would get together once Natalie stopped interfering.
Natalie stared at the two cakes in her lap as the cab took her home. Thinking of Jeremy's reaction, she grinned. She would pamper him! She would make up for everything she owed him tonight. The lingerie in her wardrobe would come in handy.
Then, her phone pinged. A message from a new follower sparked inexplicable uneasiness. Hesitantly, she unlocked her phone.
On Instagram, she saw several photos: a prenatal medical report showing a ten-week-old fetus. Why had this person sent her this?
By the report's end, she felt a chilling shock. Her grip tightened, her face draining of color.
Chapter 483
Jeremy had betrayed her! He was having an affair!
"Stop the car!" Natalie screamed at the driver.
Dumbfounded, he asked, "Aren't you going to the neighborhood over there? Why did you ask me to stop?"
He noticed her ashen face; she seemed lifeless. He was concerned. Hadn't she been so happy just moments ago?
Taking a deep breath, Natalie composed herself. "Head to the nearest hotel," she instructed.
She couldn't go home, couldn't face Jeremy. She needed to process this calmly. His strange behavior in recent months now made sense. The image of him in the hot spring flashed in her mind—lust in his eyes as he looked at someone else.
Her fingers trembled as she typed a reply: "Who are you? How can you prove this is true?"
Annabelle responded immediately: "Come to Unit 2701, Block B, Moredom Complex, whenever you're ready. Bring a friend if you're worried. Jeremy just found out about my pregnancy and is afraid I'll run away. He's stationed bodyguards outside my house. You'll see them.
Chapter 483
I can't be his mistress, and my baby won't be a bastard. He's afraid I'll get an abortion."
Each word felt like a stab to Natalie's heart. Tears streamed down her face. Finally, logic prevailed. She called Skylar.
Skylar was about to shower when her phone rang. Joe was out on business. She quickly dressed and rushed downstairs. She drove to Natalie's hotel.
Traffic was light. Skylar sped to the hotel.
As Skylar reached Natalie's door, Natalie flung it open and embraced her tightly.
"Skylar, what do I do? I never imagined this betrayal. I thought our passion had faded, that we needed to adjust. I never expected an affair!"
