"When a marriage loses meaning, it should end in a timely manner, don't you think?"

Jennifer was smiling, but her smile was visibly unkind. Natalie understood now. Jennifer was there to confront her.

Natalie gave her a meaningful smile and refused to back down.

"I've never refused to call off the marriage. Oh, now I remember! You're a great lawyer, skilled in dealing with various court cases, right? Do you think you can handle our divorce proceedings?"

None of the lawyers in the city had had the nerve to take the case so far. That was why the legal proceedings for their divorce had been delayed.

Jennifer smiled condescendingly. "You're taking it to court? Are you that confident Henry won't let you go? I think he might come around someday, and you'll be able to enjoy your freedom."

"That's for the best." Natalie stopped the conversation there. She turned around and left.

She was mentally prepared for her and Henry to go their separate ways. The people who flocked to him was non

    Lana slowly took out a small bottle from her pocket. It contained some kind of liquid. Natalie didn't know what it was, but she knew it didn't hold anything good."I'm sure you're looking forward to the day you meet your baby, aren't you?" Lana sighed as she feigned her regret. "It's a pity … that day will never arrive."Lana's face was devoid of any warmth as her words fell. It was filled with coldness and cruelty.Natalie's expression changed.It was just as she expected. Lana wanted to harm her child!The color drained from Natalie's face as it was replaced by panic and fear. And, of course, anger."Have you lost your mind, Lana? It's an unborn baby!

    Lana smiled meaningfully. "I've given you a chance. It's not that I refuse to let you go. You're the one who put your expectations on Henry," she said coldly.She leaned down as her gaze met Natalie's. "So, don't blame me for what happened today. Blame your husband for running off with another woman. He doesn't care about you or your child's life.""Lana …"But Lana no longer wanted to say anything to her.

    The nurse's gaze suddenly became evasive. She replied hesitantly, "There was a man a few days ago, but …"Deep down, Natalie had a bad feeling when she heard this, but she asked eagerly, "How is he now?"She couldn't change the fact that her baby was gone. At this point, Natalie could only hope that her father was unharmed.Otherwise, she was really about to go insane!The nurse sighed softly and looked at Natalie with pity. The nurse replied, "He had terminal lung cancer and suffered such grave injuries. He was in the hospital for two days … before he passed."Natalie replayed the nurse's sentence in her mind until her temple throbbed. She opened her mouth wide in disbelief. Her lips moved, but no words formed.How was that possible? Her father was dead?Natalie had been unconscious for a few days. How had everything changed just like that after she regained consciousness?When she saw her father in the cabin, it was the last time she was ever going to see him again! How was s

    There was an unprecedented indifference in Natalie's gaze.Henry couldn't stand seeing such a gaze from her, if he was being honest.He brushed her words and persisted in his explanation. "Cliff orchestrated all of this! There was absolutely nothing between Jennifer and me! Every detail, even my phone being turned off, was orchestrated by him!"He looked at Natalie sincerely, hoping she would believe what he had just said.Henry had also felt upset deep down. That was because he couldn't be there when she needed him the most. It had cost him the chance to meet his unborn baby.Henry's throat tightened uncomfortably.Even his voice was distorted when he said, "I apologize to you for this matter."This was the first time he had apologized to someone.

    "Alright then. You should visit Grandpa first," Leslie replied, knowing that Natalie was fond of Owen.Even if Natalie and Henry divorced, it didn't mean she had to cut all ties with the Chase family members."I'll hang up for now.

Otherwise, I would have arrived earlier." Natalie smiled.Leslie took her arm. "It's okay.

    The building was nothing special. What truly caught Natalie's attention were the words on top of it.It wrote, "Happy Birthday, Natalie Shepherd."The building was quite famous around here.

The doctor informed him that Natalie might not be able to hold pens for some time.
