Chapter 395
Jennifer was taken aback. She thought, 'Did Natalie tell Easton everything? What happened to Natalie? She used
to just swallow her pain silently and deal with it on her own."
Jennifer replied, "No, I'm not pregnant. Natalie's lying to slander me. Don't believe what Natalie says. Natalie
attempts to takedown because she's envious of how well I'm doing now. She wants to ruin me." In Jennifer's
plan, she told Easton like this and cleared things up later. After that, she could twist the story and blit on
Natalie. Natalie wouldn't be able to escape her schemes.
Easton's eyes shimmered with a threatening intent. He stood by the window and watched the snow outside.
Jennifer's reaction only proved that he had been a fool.
Having been cautious all his life, Easton felt trapped by the life-saving favor Jennifer had cleverly taken
advantage of. He warned, "Jennifer, that's enough." After that, he hung up the phone.
Easton thought, ‘Jennifer is planning her next move. But what could it be? William hasn't been in Shagrity lately.
Where did he go?"
William's movements had always been secretive. None of Easton's people had discovered which mistress William
was currently with.
William liked all the children from his mistresses except for Easton, the son of his legitimate wife. But Easton
didn't care.
Easton was suddenly taken aback because he realized that, in Natalie's eyes, he was no different from William.
Easton thought, ‘Jennifer, William, and the man behind Jennifer share a close connection. | am already out of
control, and Jennifer is about to make her move on me.
‘Natalie, wait a bit longer. I'll give you a reasonable explanation when the tcomes. He stood by the window
for a bit, then went downstairs.
Natalie quickly tidied up the kitchen. Turning around, she saw Easton standing at the kitchen entrance. She
paused for a moment. Honestly, aside from talking about him and Jennifer, they had nothing else to discuss.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEaston was cold, with a strong sense of detachment. Natalie kept her head down and walked past Easton. As
they brushed by each other, Easton grabbed her wrist.
Natalie was startled and tried to shake his hand off but couldn't. She furrowed her brows. Her voice was chilly as
she said, "Easton, let go of me."
Easton took a deep breath. He missed the six months when he couldn't stand up. Natalie would push him out for
walks. Often, she'd be the one talking, and he'd listen.
Her voice was pleasant, with a touch of laughter. She seemed carefree, always smiling happily. Back then, she
gradually uplifted his downcast spirits.
But during that time, Easton was blind, and his legs were paralyzed, making him feel negative. He didn't
remember many of the stories and words Natalie shared.
He only remembered one thing: Natalie was chatting happily all day long. And she could take care of him
meticulously, leaving no detail unchecked.
Vernon and Anne liked Natalie a lot, and she was good at winning people over. However, their affections shifted
when Jennifer returned, and Natalie's kindness was seen as insincere. Because they preferred Jennifer, everyone
harbored animosity towards Natalie. Then, as Natalie predicted, the Simpson

family faced trouble. Alexander was missing, and Jason ended up wheelchair-bound.
Wendy's company went bankrupt. Next was Declan. Easton wondered if Jennifer would take action against
Declan.
Easton said in a severe tone, "Ctake a walk with me."
Natalie raised an eyebrow at Easton. His eyes were deep, hiding whatever thoughts he had. But she knew him
well and could tell he was in a bad mood.
Easton was born lonely, like a child forgotten by the world, wandering alone in the dark. Seeing through his
loneliness touched Natalie's soft heart. She wanted to stay by his side, dispel his darkness, and bring warthith.
However, Easton didn't need her. His cold eyes, mercilessly rejecting her, pierced her heart like a sharp blade
because she wasn't the one he treasured most.
Because she was not the person who could open his heart and persuade him to let someone in. Her deep
affection seemed so insignificant in the face of his indifference. Her presence held no weight in his heart.
He stubbornly held onto his obsession with his first love, keeping everyone at a distance, even those who
sincerely wanted to care for him, like Natalie,
Natalie looked at Easton and suddenly began to cry. Her tears blurred her eyes. She knew from the start that her
love was doomed to be a tragedy, and her efforts only added to the heartache.
And when Jennifer returned to his life, Easton clung to Jennifer like a lifeline, no longer alone in the depths.
Jennifer was always his salvation.
Seeing Natalie cry, Easton felt anxious. He asked, "Why are you crying?"
Natalie shook her head and said, "It's nothing. | just realized how foolish | was back then. You didn't need my
company, and | was just moved by my own feelings." Easton's grip on her wrist tightened slightly. He said,
"That's not true. At that time, | was so thankful you were by my side. Without you, I'd still be a wreck, Natalie..."
Natalie interrupted him, "Stop it, saying all this is pointless now. I'm exhausted. | need to rest."
Hearing she was tired, Easton let go of her hand.
Natalie quickly went upstairs. After opening the door, she collapsed on the floor as if she had no energy left. She
sensed the danger in the air. If she stayed here any longer, she'd keep falling into it.
She could control her actions, but she couldn't control her heart. She made up her mind not to fall for it again.
Once James's project was finished, she could leave this place. During this time, she would avoid meeting Easton.
Natalie sat on the floor for a while before she got up and went to the bathroom to shower. Her phone in the bag
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwas vibrating. She took it out and saw it was Jennifer again.
She thought, 'Does she feel uncomfortable if she doesn't annoyfor a day?’ She lazily answered the phone,
"Hello!"
Jennifer yelled, "Natalie, were you the one who told Easton that I'm pregnant with his child?"
Natalie replied, "Yes! You are pregnant with his child. He should divorce me. | told him to take responsibility for
the baby. And, why are your tricks getting so simple? Weren't you the one who could completely captivate him
before? "Put in seffort. Make him divorcefor the baby in your belly. That's your real ability." While
speaking, she picked up a white nightgown and walked towards the bathroom.
On the other end, Jennifer was furious. She shouted, "Natalie, do you want to leave Easton? If you truly want to
leave, do you

Natalie took a deep breath and said, "I want to leave, but | can't. Even if you get him, you won't have a life of
luxury. You're aware of that agreement, aren't you? | only learned about it recently. "So now, the child is your
biggest bargaining chip, Jennifer. Go for it!" She decided to just go with the flow.
Jennifer was speechless.

When Natalie entered the bathroom and closed the door, Jennifer's voice cthrough, tinged with a nasty
laugh. Jennifer said, "Natalie, the morning after tomorrow, I've got a great show for you." Natalie immediately
becalert. She asked, "What show?"
