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. It was also the first time he had humbled himself before Natalie.

For some reason, Henry just couldn't accept it when he heard her asking for a divorce.

But Natalie didn't show any reaction upon hearing his words.

    "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.

She had even felt partially responsible for it.As soon as Natalie arrived at the Chase residence, she saw Shirley walking over.Shirley's belly had grown huge, and she no longer looked agile when she walked.

Otherwise, I would have arrived earlier." Natalie smiled.Leslie took her arm. "It's okay. Let's go up!"The two chatted as they reached the top floor.Although Natalie was expecting surprises, she was still amazed by the romantic setup when she entered the restaurant.There were flowers, lights, and balloons. Natalie could tell Leslie had put a lot of thought into her birthday.Natalie was moved. "Leslie, what did I do to deserve a friend like you?"Leslie felt awkward and mumbled, "Although I treat you well, this birthday party … wasn't planned by me.""Sorry, what did you say?" Natalie didn't hear Leslie clearly and looked at

    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. It costs an immense fortune just to advertise on it. However, it was a good place for an advertisement. Since it was located in a bustling area with a high floor, the building's illuminated sign could be seen in many parts of the city.Plenty of people must have also seen the birthday wish.Natalie was stunned. It couldn't be a mere coincidence that someone with the same name and birthday as hers existed. Someone must have arranged this for her.But who could it be?Leslie's gaze was also drawn to those words. Her brows furrowed. She thought Sheldon arranging such an expensive restaurant for Natalie's birthday was already a grand gesture.

    Henry stopped in his tracks and met Leonard's gaze impatiently. "Where else can I go?""Then take me with you! Your house is so big! It shouldn't be a big problem to let me stay for the night, right?" Leonard grinned slyly.Henry couldn't let Leonard follow him. He finally told the truth. "I'm not going home.""Then, where are you going?" Leonard's smile deepened. "I won't bother you if you're going to seek out Natalie. So, are you going to her?"Henry didn't enjoy being read like an open book by Leonard. Nonetheless, he finally admitted. "Yes."Not wanting to see the triumphant look on Leonard's face, Henry turned and walked away."Just admit it, Henry! You've fallen for Natalie!" Leonard shouted after Henry's retreating figure.Henry heard him and paused. He had started to care about Natalie a long time ago. But he had always refused to admit it. His denial had led to many misunderstandings between them. Now, he just hoped that fate would bring them back together.As Leonar

    In the dead of night at the police station, Henry wore a displeased expression, appearing thoroughly unhappy.Harry didn't know what to say.He was surprised to receive a call from the police station. The police said that a family member needed to come and get Henry.So, he rushed over immediately to pick up Henry."Please don't do that ever again." Harry looked at him with pity.This was probably the most embarrassing moment in Henry's life. He planned to spend the night at his ex-wife's house by acting drunk. Yet, Natalie heartlessly sent him to the police station. Not only did they lose their time together, but Henry also received a lecture from the police."You and Natalie need to take it slow. After all, some of your past with her had become a thorn in her heart. You'll need to put in some effort to remove them," Harry comforted him.Henry sighed helplessly. "But I've already explained everything to her. I feel guilty and upset about that incident. Why does she have to ..."

    Trevor knew about Natalie's divorce from Henry. He had anticipated Natalie's response.He smirked and met Natalie's eyes. "I told you, this is the company's decision. Do you think we, workers, can refuse the company's decisions?"Natalie understood the situation as well. Although she had gained recognition in the field of architectural design through the Creative Visions Competition, she would still have a hard time if she were fired from Dawn Corporation.She had worked hard to secure her current job. She didn't want to risk it."The higher-ups said you'll get a raise if the project is a success, and you will have plenty of opportunities in the future. It will be a different situation if you refuse." Trevor paused. "Do you understand where I'm getting at?"Natalie balled her fists and finally signed the document.Trevor nodded in satisfaction. "This is an urgent project on Blue Ocean Group's end. You will need to finish up the designs soon. Later, the company will send someone t

    Henry glanced at Jennifer. There wasn't an ounce of warmth in his eyes. "You only deserve my schemes."Jennifer smiled. She seemed resigned as she nodded and said, "Alright, since Mr. Chase wants this to happen, then I shall listen to you."They had many days ahead of them anyway.She would have to put in the effort if she wanted to fight for a place in his heart. She had to get used to the feeling of being hurt by him.Henry ignored her and began to look through his documents.Jennifer looked at him meaningfully before leaving his office. Then, she returned to her office and collected her belongings. Before she left, she looked around at her office.

She wanted the title of "Mrs. Chase" instead.Her feelings for Henry did not develop overnight.A few years ago, when Henry had just joined the business industry, he hadn't had any support from his family.

    Henry slowly changed his posture. The amusement on his face deepened. "Am I mixing company business with personal affairs, or is Ms. Shepherd overthinking things?"Natalie was dumbfounded as she looked at him warily.Was she really overthinking things?"Have a seat. The briefing for this project is also quite time-consuming," Henry spoke as he moved his mouse.The big screen in front of them lit up.Natalie looked at his focused expression. Only then did Natalie find it more believable that he meant business. Henry couldn't help but tease Natalie when he saw her still standing there."Why are you standing there unmoving? Don't tell me you want me to talk about our personal affairs instead?"Natalie narrowed her eyes in slight embarrassment. She quickly found the furthest seat from him and sat down. "You can start now."Henry was displeased with her seat choice. He frowned and looked at her. "Out of respect for our cooperation, shouldn't you sit elsewhere?""I'm good here." N

    However, Celine wasn't aware that when she'd quickly run off, Henry had shown up at the other end of the hallway.Although Celine was quite far away, Henry could still tell that it was her.When Henry saw her, he briefly paused at wheeling himself. It was only when Celine's figure completely vanished at the elevator that he wheeled himself into Natalie's ward.He had just finished speaking with the doctor in his office regarding Natalie's condition. The doctor informed him that Natalie might not be able to hold pens for some time. And even if Natalie was able to take care of herself in the later stages of recovery, her hands might not be as agile as before.
