Natalie smiled.In such a relaxed atmosphere, it was easy for people to unwind. She felt like attending early education classes wasn't just for the children's sake! More than that, it was about easing the postpartum mood for moms."Is it really like that?""Yes! When you have one child, it feels so easy. Then you have another one, thinking it'll be fun, but it turns out the child ends up playing you.""Hahaha! Exactly! Don't underestimate babies! They'll really make you understand what it means to voluntarily give up yourself!"Voluntarily give up oneself? Was having a second child really that bad?At this moment, Natalie also noticed that many second-time mothers weren't wearing makeup.Having one child was already enough to keep one busy. After having a second child, it got even busier, and going out became a hurried and chaotic affair."After listening to you all, I'm definitely not having a second child," Natalie said with a laugh.The group of people continued chatting
With how serious Caleb sounded, Natalie didn't doubt him and replied without hesitation, "Wait for me."Caleb replied gently, "Okay."After hanging up, Natalie neatly packed away the blueprints on her desk and placed them in a drawer. Then she grabbed her car keys and headed out. Glancing at her watch, she realized it was almost time to finish work. If she went to pick up Caleb now, she definitely wouldn't make it home in time for dinner. After all, it took forty minutes to drive to the airport.She called Heather. "You don't have to wait for me for dinner tonight.""Is work too busy? You haven't fully recovered yet, so don't strain your eyes too much," Heather said concernedly.Upon hearing that Natalie wouldn't be coming home for dinner, Heather naturally assumed Natalie was working overtime. "It's not overtime. A friend has arrived in Verde City, and we're planning to have dinner together," Natalie explained."Alright, come back early, and don't drink," Heather instructe
Creak!The piercing sound resonated in the restaurant as Natalie accidentally ground her fork and knife onto her plate.She looked at Caleb in bewilderment and said, "What did you say? I didn't catch that!"Actually, she had heard clearly. But it was shocking. Undoubtedly, when Caleb mentioned Yvonne's resignation at the airport, Natalie hadn't even considered it from that angle. So, Caleb's words came as a bit of a shock.Caleb took a sip of his red wine and said, "It should have been before that.""Before what?"The more he spoke, the more confused Natalie became! Wait, did he mean... Could it be that Yvonne knew she was pregnant before they revealed that Luna was Caleb's child?!Oh no! That was really bad...! If that was the case, then Yvonne's resignation had an entirely different significance."I'll go talk to her and explain!" Natalie exclaimed immediately.A clear explanation was needed for this matter!Natalie hadn't known that there was something betwee
Natalie knew very well that since Caleb had come looking for her at such a critical juncture, she simply had no right to refuse. She had to agree whether she wanted to or not!Caleb glanced at her and said, "She'll only come out when she's angry!"Yvonne would only come out when she was angry?So before this, how cruel had he been to make someone angry enough to come out? For doing things in such a way, Natalie truly didn't know what to say.Once, she thought her relationship with Cedric was complicated enough, but she didn't know that such complexity was everywhere.And so, Natalie accepted Caleb's proposal!But thinking about the scenes to come, she...!-In Maple Peak, Irwin called Natalie multiple times, but there was no response!Finally, Dylan tracked down Natalie's whereabouts. When he reported it, Irwin's already stormy expression turned darker. There was a dangerous glint in his eyes as he stared at Dylan. "So, are they in the tower now?""Yes, they've entered th
Natalie was led out of the tower in a daze by Irwin!In the car, she keenly felt the coldness and danger emanating from the man. Dylan was driving. At this moment, if Irwin had been driving, they would probably be speeding past the other cars like the wind!Dylan could also sense the ominous atmosphere surrounding Irwin.After a long silence, Irwin finally spoke, "Why him?" Natalie raised an eyebrow.In a cold voice, she replied, "Why not?""Natalie!" The man's tone grew sterner.Such a gloomy atmosphere caused even Dylan, who was driving ahead, to flinch. Everyone could feel the car slightly veering off course.Natalie looked at Irwin. "Did you really take our marriage seriously?"Her words held a hint of sarcasm.Irwin fell silent. Upon hearing Natalie's words, his already somber expression darkened even more.Natalie continued, "You really took it seriously, huh?" Her tone was even more mocking.Her words implied that she had never taken their marriage seriously fro
Such words were not supposed to come out of Irwin's mouth, so why could he say such things now? Natalie laughed! She laughed because Irwin was shaking in anger.She was laughing...!Irwin was also furious. After all, men couldn't tolerate having what was theirs violated by anyone or anything, could they?"There was a ghost between Cedric and Isabella! Caleb will make things clear with Yvonne. How can you compare our situations?"It wasn't the same! Back then, Cedric was constantly entangled with Isabella while still holding onto Natalie...! That was the most distressing part. The key point was that there were no such feelings between Natalie and Caleb. So, Natalie spoke in a justified manner.It was a reckless and irresponsible story that Natalie had made up.Irwin was really having trouble breathing from anger! He had never experienced anything like this in his life...! These moments were usually reserved for Cedric, where Irwin would helplessly watch him endure blow
Inside the car, Dylan looked at Natalie with concern. He had heard every word of their conversation earlier in the car, and he knew it was Natalie's retaliation against Irwin. Previously, waves had been stirred up in Wexford. Now, it was Irwin's turn to deal with the aftermath.Natalie didn't intend to let anything slide. Dylan cautiously said, "The relationship between Mr. Frazier and Mr. Spencer is quite special. I hope you can consider this matter carefully before making a decision."Clearly, it was a reminder to Natalie that some things shouldn't be taken too far.After all, Irwin and Caleb have been friends for so many years. What did she intend to do if something were to happen on Natalie's end?"Mr. Warren, you don't need to worry about these matters."Caleb knew the current relationship between her and Irwin. If he could directly approach her despite that, there was nothing Natalie needed to be concerned about.Dylan furrowed his brows at Natalie's words. "Mr. Frazier
Natalie didn't think too much about it. She smiled, and a hint of chill flashed in her eyes instantly. "Would you dare run off with it?"Emily was instantly frightened by Natalie's gaze!Of course not!After all, all of Natalie's assistants had heard about Natalie's background. They were now taking orders from Regal Horizons International, and Natalie was the former CEO. If anyone wanted to survive in Simeria, who would dare to easily deceive her?!-Two hours later, Emily and Lawrence returned, carrying a pile of money with them. Natalie frowned. "What's this?!""Their security kicked us out when they saw us!"Natalie's eyes twitched when she heard Emily's words. What was going on? What kind of person was the other party?Undoubtedly, this had left Natalie somewhat confused.Just then, her phone vibrated.Natalie picked up her phone and glanced at it. When she saw the message on it, she almost fainted. [If you don't come tomorrow, the lawyer will come to see you!]
