Natasha even seemed to regard Natalie with contempt.Natalie was puzzled by Natasha's reaction because she had dropped clear hints, but Natasha seemed completely indifferent.Natalie raised an eyebrow, amazed at Natasha's ability to endure without easily getting angry.With a grim expression, Joshua said sternly, "You're mistaken."Oblivious to Joshua's stern expression, Natalie insisted, "I'm not. Josh, you went that day—""I said I didn't! Are you doubting me?" Joshua roared.Natalie didn't understand what she had said to upset Joshua. His cold stare immediately quieted her. She was puzzled by Joshua's sudden outburst of anger.Joshua strode solemnly toward the grand gates of Sullivan Villa, paying no attention to Natalie beside him.Natalie quickly followed Joshua, matching his pace. After being scolded by him, Natalie suddenly realized something was wrong with him.Could it be that he didn't want Natasha to know he had been to the hospital, so he yelled at Natalie instead?
The footsteps approaching from behind the large bronze gate grew louder with each passing moment. Natalie's heart pounded, her nerves tingling with tension.Meanwhile, Joshua seemed calm and unaffected. He stood in stark contrast to Natalie.As if struck by a thought, he directed his gaze toward Natasha, who stood nearby. Her smile bore a subtle hint of mockery, as though she were witnessing a scene unfold.As soon as Natasha caught Joshua's gaze, she quickly erased her smile and returned to an expressionless demeanor.Yet, Joshua had clearly noticed it. His expression darkened into a frown. Was Natasha gloating just now?Philip was barely holding on, his survival depending entirely on the help of the Sullivan family's miracle worker.Joshua and Natalie had traveled a long way to Topola to save Philip, yet Natasha appeared to gloat about their misfortune.How dare she?Joshua's expression turned grim, his jaw tensing with frustration. He couldn't understand what Natasha was t
Otherwise, no one would come to open the door even if these two knocked on it all day."We came from Oceanville and looking for the Sullivan family's miracle worker," Natalie said softly."The Sullivan family's miracle worker?" Xavier rubbed his chin, repeating in a low voice.Natalie quickly nodded, "Yes. It's the internationally renowned Sullivan family's miracle worker... We would like to see him and seek his help.""Is there a miracle worker in the Sullivan family?" Xavier asked in confusion.As a proper member of the Sullivan family, he had never heard of any Sullivan family's miracle worker. Where did this rumor come from?Natalie was startled by his question, "What do you mean by there isn't a miracle worker in the Sullivan family?""It shouldn't be... There clearly is…" Natalie thought these two were trying to drive her away intentionally by falsely claiming that there was no such person in the Sullivan family.So she quickly tugged on Joshua's sleeve, urging him to spe
"Please don't go..." Natalie grabbed a piece of Xavier's clothes tightly as he turned around.Xavier was forced to turn his head."What are you doing? I've already said that you can't enter. There's no point in saying more." Xavier's tone became slightly impatient.If the two of them were looking for someone other than Austin, Xavier might have been more lenient.But they had just made it clear that they were looking for the Sullivan family's miracle worker... which was Austin.Austin had secluded himself for many years and it could be said that he had never seen outsiders. Moreover, Austin was the head of the family. Without his orders, who would dare to bring someone in to see him?Xavier wouldn't dare to do it."Really? " Natalie pleaded, her eyes filled with entreaty. Coupled with her pitiful expression, no one could resist.Xavier remained expressionless. "No."Natalie couldn't help but complain inwardly.How could this man be so obstinate? She had said so much... yet he
"I'm sure you guys are not a couple. Otherwise... how could a girlfriend act in such a disobedient way?" Xavier said.Joshua's face immediately darkened.He, Joshua Grayson, had not reached the point where he needed a woman to rely on sacrificing her looks and charm to help him…"I said let go, can't you hear?" Joshua raised his voice.Natalie reflexively withdrew her hand from Xavier's clothes after she heard Joshua's angry voice, which brought her a sense of fear, and she had no idea why she let go of Xavier's clothes.By the time she realized it, Xavier had already turned around and completely closed the door.The huge red copper gate stood like a colossal barrier between the two of them and the Sullivan residence."You…" Natalie didn't even get to finish her sentence. Looking at the closed gate in front of her again, she couldn't help but stomp her feet in anger."This is too rude! How could they treat their own relatives like this?" Natalie shouted.Although she was just
Holding her phone, Natasha remained silent for a long time to think of what to answer. After a while, she finally answered, "Daniel, can I come back into the Sullivan residence in a few hours?"She wouldn't be exposed if she went back in when Joshua and Natalie were ready to depart to Oceanville after waiting for hours. But on the other end of the phone, Daniel seemed to not understand why Natasha said that. "Natty, your grandfather is clamoring to see you!"Natasha held the phone and listened to Daniel's urgent urging on one side while raising her eyes to the two people in front of the gate. Joshua and Natalie were standing not far away, only about ten meters from her.Joshua seemed to be in a bad mood because he couldn't enter the Sullivan residence, standing still without moving at all. He was tall with a strong physique, well-built but looking slim when dressed. He was standing still like a pillar in front of the gate of the Sullivan residence.Natasha frowned.It seemed t
"Your grandfather had never acted like this when he was younger. How could he become like this when he's older? It's just too scary..."Natty, you're the only one who can save me..." Daniel continued.If they let Austin continue to smash things, it would be his turn to be smashed next. After all, it would indeed be his fault as Natasha's uncle for not fulfilling his responsibilities if she really went back to Oceanville.Upon hearing this, Natasha fell silent instantly.Listening to Daniel, she had to go in even if she didn't want to.Otherwise, it would be too immature...Natasha took a deep breath. "Okay, I'll go in now. Don't worry."She had just managed to somewhat improve her relationship with Austin. If she let misunderstandings arise again, it would probably be difficult to reconcile with him no matter how much she tried to coax him in the future.Natasha hurriedly hung up the phone and immediately walked toward the gate.When she walked past Joshua and Natalie, she mov
Seeing Joshua had already spoken, Natalie said, "That's right, Natasha. That's not where you should go. Come back quickly!"If you want to show off and hope to impress Josh, I think you should stop trying."It depended on the situation to impress a man. Someone who acted recklessly regardless of the occasion like Natalie was just foolish.What kind of place was the Sullivan residence? It wasn't a place where she could act like a heroin. "Don't waste your efforts. Otherwise, you will end up being humiliated by the Sullivans. You might as well wait for Joshua's plan."As Natalie spoke, she unconsciously crossed her arms and looked at Natasha, seemingly looking down at her.Natasha suddenly stopped walking when she heard Natalie.How could Natalie ask her to wait for Joshua's plan? Funny.Natasha couldn't help but raise her eyebrows. Did she have to wait for others to arrange things? Was she a child? Didn’t she have her own opinion? Couldn’t she decide without a man? Did she have
