Who's the Substitute Now? Chapter 624
"Josh... look. Natasha's wrist is all red. Although you don't like her, I think you're being a bit too harsh." Natalie refused to move and pleaded with her eyes.Joshua was irritated by her gaze and furrowed his brows tightly.Watching the confrontation between the two, a plan suddenly crossed Natasha's mind. Although Natalie's words were disgusting, her timing was perfect.It gave Natasha the perfect opportunity!Without further ado, Natasha took advantage of Joshua's distracted attention and forcefully twisted his wrist.Before Joshua could react, she broke free from his grasp."You…" Joshua's eyes flashed with shock as he looked at Natalie.Natasha rubbed her reddened wrist, shrugged her shoulders provocatively, and taunted, "What? Do you have something to say about the way you've hurt my hand, Mr. Grayson? "Do you want to pay for my medical expenses?"Joshua was so angry that his whole body trembled and unable to speak for a moment. "Natasha, you!"Natasha turned her

Watching Joshua picking up the herb from Nataie's dress, Natasha raised an eyebrow with a playful tone. "So, are you always going to pay for Natalie, Mr. Grayson?"With a hint of hesitation, she seemed unsure whether to agree to this."But I've always believed that whoever does the deed should bear the consequences, so this money..." Natasha pointed at Natalie.Her tone was drawn out, "Natalie has to pay for it."Before Joshua could speak, Natalie couldn't hold back anymore. "Daydreaming! If you want to beg, go beg somewhere else. Don't think about extorting people."Wasn't Natasha quite arrogant earlier?She used to buy the TImperial Heights without hesitation and even bought a blue diamond ring in the size of a pigeon egg without blinking an eye.What's going on now?Was it because she got tired of being played by her sugar daddy and got dumped... Was she so broke that she had to beg on the streets?Natalie smirked, her eyes filled with disdain.Now that she couldn't rely

Did she hear it correctly?Joshua actually told her not to make trouble anymore?It was obvious that Natasha was the one making trouble, right?If Natasha didn't ask her to compensate for that broken grass, would she make her compensate for the dress?Why was Joshua so biased toward Natasha?Natalie felt angry, making her furious.However, she couldn't get angry with Joshua in order to maintain her image, so she could only suppress this anger deep in her heart.Now all she could do was grit her teeth and swallow it."Josh... I..."Initially, she wanted to apologize in time to get Joshua's affection, but she somehow couldn't utter the apology.Natalie thought it was all Natasha's fault, she didn't understand why she should apologize.She just couldn't accept it."Josh... I'm really not trying to make things difficult for Natasha, it's Natasha who has been holding onto me."She grabbed Joshua's hand, shaking it incessantly, looking pitiful and lovable."If it weren't for Na

As soon as Natalie heard Natasha, she immediately looked at the necklace on her neck.She was wearing a delicate short necklace of pearls and diamonds on her slender neck, with white pearls resting quietly on her collarbone in the sunlight.The pearls continuously emitted a soft and bright light when Natalie was breathing."How about it? Natalie." Natasha raised an eyebrow, looking at the necklace with a hint of playfulness in her tone.Natalie's face darkened, but she didn't say anything.Natasha actually dared to ask for this necklace on her neck?!Had she gone crazy for money? Didn't she realize her own worth?!It's simply absurd!Not to mention the value of this necklace, how dare she touch the belongings of someone she was substituting for?Typical of someone who had been a substitute for too long, unable to even distinguish their own identity.…Natasha tapped the ground with her toe expressionlessly. As time passed second by second, she became impatient."What? Do yo

Natalie trembled with anger."What did you say… Did you say I'm shameless?" Natasha rubbed her ear slowly and spoke slowly.She raised an eyebrow at Natalie and smirked.How dare Natalie call her shameless?It's truly laughable."Give me back the necklace." Natalie stared at her.Natasha acted as if she hadn't seen it and completely ignored her.She played with the necklace in her hand, the round pearls gradually gliding across her fingertips, giving off a unique beauty.Natasha knew how frustrating it was not to be able to touch something you could see.She dared to guarantee that Natalie must be feeling very uncomfortable right now.The next moment, seeing that Natasha remained unmoved, Natalie hurriedly went to seek Joshua's help. She grabbed Joshua's clothes with her delicate hands, looking pitiful."Josh... Now you see it. Natasha is the one bullying me... She even took my necklace and I feel so wronged."Joshua pursed his lips.He looked at Natasha, seeming to want

"Josh... Are you really just going to stand by and watch Natasha take the necklace?" Although Natalie didn't dare to directly snatch it, she couldn't suppress her anger.Her eyes stared unwaveringly at Natasha, afraid that she would simply throw the necklace to the ground."Didn't you hear what I just said? The plant you accidentally stepped on is called the Mystic Herb..." Joshua answered coldly.Joshua didn't want to think much about whether Natalie stepped on it on purpose or not."I made it clear about its value just now, didn't I? Don't you understand? Your necklace doesn't even compare to half the price of the Mystic Herb." Joshua spoke coldly and emotionless.As soon as he finished speaking, Natalie took a step back, feeling as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.Joshua's words were so straightforward. There was no way for her to not understand the meaning.Although the Mystic Herb was expensive, she had accidentally stepped on it. Couldn't Joshua help her say a few w

Three years ago, there were security guards stationed at the entrance of the Sullivan residence all day long. The door would never have remained unanswered after prolonged knocking.Natasha had been away from home for a long time and was unaware of what the Sullivan family had experienced in recent years, nor did she know why the security guards at the entrance of the Sullivan residence were all gone.She left home in a hurry and didn't bring her keys... She would usually ride in the car with Daniel and go straight into the Sullivan residence. Natasha didn't know exactly how to enter the Sullivan residence on foot.This made her feel at a loss.If things didn't work out, she had to call Daniel and have him send someone to pick her up.…However, Joshua was just standing silently in place, not coming forward to stop Natalie, which was quite surprising.Did the sun rise from the west?Joshua didn't stop her.Natasha thought in her mind while continuing to knock on the door.For a moment,

The knocking on the gate of Sullivan Villa grew louder, it could be heard even from the surrounding mountains, causing numerous birds to fly away.Many birds chirped and flew out from the trees, creating a spectacular scene.Natalie kept knocking on the gate as if she could never feel tired and there was still a hint of anger on her face.She was gritting her teeth as if releasing all her pent-up anger through this action.She seemed to blow off steam at this moment by knocking on the gate. The louder it became, the more distorted her expression.Joshua was standing straight behind Natalie. Although he couldn't see the distorted expression on Natalie's face, his expression gradually tightened as he listened to the noisy knocking.He could recall that Natalie didn't behave like this when she knocked on the gate earlier.When did the gentle and weak little princess who couldn't even open a bottle cap become so strong?Listening to the powerful and loud knocking, he couldn't even

He didn't know where this sense of loss came from, but it hung over Joshua like a low-pressure system and seemed impossible to dispel. His expression visibly darkened. Yet, he seemed to want to maintain his dignity and didn't want Natasha to discern his sense of loss. So Joshua pursed his lips, forcefully suppressing the feeling and putting on a blank expression. He seemed indifferent to Natasha's proposed condition."How about it? Does Mr. Grayson need more time to consider?" Natasha sat calmly in her chair, tilting her head slightly. She was confident this time that Joshua would definitely agree. Although she felt a bit uneasy about using Philip's life as leverage against Joshua, she believed it was the best option at the moment. Given Joshua's personality, using trivial things as leverage wouldn't pose any threat to him. Besides family members' lives, everything else was insignificant to him. She had no other choice.As Natasha spoke, her eyebrows furrowed lightly, and her

As soon as Joshua heard Natasha mention there were conditions, he instantly had a bad feeling. Although Natasha didn't explicitly state the conditions, Joshua understood that they definitely wouldn't be easy."What conditions are you talking about?" He propped his chin up with his hand, looking at Natasha seriously.Natasha smiled and raised her lips. "What are the conditions? You should know."Joshua was slightly stunned. He knew what the conditions were?He furrowed his brows earnestly, trying hard to figure out what conditions Natasha was talking about.Could it be…"Are you trying to make it a condition to drive Natalie away from the Grayson Villa?" Joshua raised an eyebrow. Considering recent events, Joshua couldn't think of any other conditions.As soon as this was said, Natasha was momentarily dumbfounded.What was he talking about?Natasha tried to find a word to describe Joshua's thoughts, but after a long time, she couldn't bring herself to say it. Joshua's train of

Natasha blinked her eyes. It seemed that Joshua was anticipating her rejection in advance."Since you can enter the Sullivan residence, your relationship with them must be extraordinary."It's not like people with Joshua's and Natalie's status could enter. But Natasha could, which undoubtedly indicated that she still had something to hide from him."Since you have this relationship with the Sullivans, helping Grandfather should be a simple matter."As soon as these words came out, Natasha sneered, "Simple matter?""Although I do have some connection with the Sullivans, it's not to the extent where I can freely arrange the Sullivans miracle worker's schedule."The position of the Sullivan's miracle worker is well-known. Since you are aware of it, you shouldn't say such things. You're overestimating me."Natasha was blatantly lying and trying to deceive Joshua."Someone with the status of the Sullivan's miracle worker would only save someone if he wanted to. If he doesn't have th

As soon as Joshua said the name "Jacob", Natasha felt like her throat was being choked, and was unable to breathe properly.Her breathing became somewhat erratic."What's wrong? Do you know him or not?" Joshua spoke, narrowing his eyes. His pupils contracted, and he looked sharp and almost menacing.It seemed like any slight movement from Natasha couldn't escape his gaze."I…" Natasha began.She seemed a bit hesitant but also seemed not at all. Finally, she calmly spoke, "I don't know him.""Don't know him?" Joshua raised an eyebrow.He seemed somewhat incredulous, repeatedly confirming, "You really don't know him?"Natasha nodded, her expression very firm. "I don't know him."She looked somewhat puzzled, her tone confused as she asked, "Who is Jacob? Is he also from the Graysons?"Joshua stared at Natasha motionlessly, as if trying to find a flaw on her face.But Natasha remained calm. Her expression was very normal and without any flaws.Joshua stared for a long time. Eve

"Please help us remove all these dishes and replace them with some new ones." Natasha pointed to the dishes on the table.The waitress was startled, instinctively asking, "Is there any problem with these dishes? Please point them out, and we will correct them immediately."Natasha smiled gracefully. "No, there's nothing wrong."It was just that these dishes accidentally touched Joshua's nerve."Is it because the dishes don't suit your taste?" the waitress continued to inquire."Not really." Natasha shook her head.Although, she hadn't even taken a bite. She didn't even know if these dishes were good or not.If Joshua's gaze hadn't been so intimidating, she would have tried them so as not to waste them.Next time, she had to bring Austin to try the dishes at this restaurant."So what's wrong with these dishes? We can convey your feedback to the kitchen, or we can replace them with new dishes for you free of charge. Would that be acceptable to you?" the waitress asked.The wait

Joshua had been the president for a long time, and his whole demeanor was daunting, seemingly suffocating others with his pressure.Natasha sat in her seat. Even if she deliberately avoided looking up at Joshua, she could still feel the scalp-tingling sensation.His gaze was just too sharp. She couldn't ignore it even if she wanted to."Uh… Didn't you just say you don't like these dishes? Do you want them all removed?" Natasha awkwardly changed the subject."I'll listen and remove it now. I'll call the waiter in to take them away." After saying that, Natasha lowered her gaze and pressed the button on the table to call the waiter outside on standby.Joshua remained silent. His gaze fixed on Natasha without wavering.It made Natasha feel even more trapped.Her mind was already in a mess at the moment. She regretted that she had spoken too hastily earlier without thinking.She had never let slip of anything during her time in the Grayson Villa.What was happening now? Just a few
Who's the Substitute Now? Chapter 690
She was trying hard to change the subject.But Joshua looked at the dish, his mind filled with the image of Jacob's face and the various rejections he had faced during his youth.This made him very uncomfortable."I won't eat it. Take it away," Joshua said coldly with disdain."This dish… actually tastes very good. You can try it. Don't have a prejudice against it." Natasha tried to calm Joshua's mood.But he clearly had little patience. He roared angrily, "Take it away!""I don't want to see this dish!"The sound made Natasha's hand tremble as she held the plate."Alright, alright, I'll take it away. Why are you so fierce?" Natasha bit her lip, took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing her rising anger, and then withdrew the dish of delicious cheese curds."Then have some other dishes." She gestured to the several dishes on the table.But unexpectedly, Joshua's face turned even worse. His gaze swept over the dishes on the table, his brows deeply furrowed, looking very dissati

Joshua's tone sounded casual and his expression indifferent, as if discussing something unrelated to him. Yet, it gave the impression that he was talking about his own affairs."Is it worth it?" Natasha murmured, repeating the question.Perhaps because Joshua exuded a melancholic air, Natasha stopped in her tracks and earnestly answered the question. "If this mother is willing to do it, then it must be worth it."Upon hearing this, Joshua looked at her, his melancholy seeming to deepen."Is that so? Do you also think that everything this mother does is worth it?"The sorrowful expression in his eyes seemed so thick that it was unbreakable.Natasha was surprised to see Joshua like this. She didn't understand why Joshua had suddenly changed."A parent's love for their child involves careful planning. Every mother who selflessly sacrifices for her child is great…"Natasha considered her tone carefully. "A mother who wholeheartedly loves her child would do this, wouldn't she?"Bef

They were different people.In a flash, Natasha instinctively pushed him away.She stood up straight, her tone serious as she said, "Joshua, please behave yourself." Her gentle fingers brushed against Joshua's shirt, seemingly carrying her fresh fragrance with it.The sudden push caught Joshua off guard.Looking up, he found Natasha wanting to keep her distance from him as if he were a ferocious beast.This look even made Joshua doubt himself. Was he that bad to warrant such a reaction from her?Before he could come to a conclusion, Natasha had already picked up her bag, seemingly ready to leave."If Mr. Grayson has nothing else to do today, I'll be taking my leave first."Joshua's behavior just now caught her off guard.Anyway, from the looks of it, he probably wouldn't agree to a divorce.Since Joshua had made up his mind, it was pointless for her to linger here. It was better to go home and avoid hearing any more of Joshua's "seductive" words."Wait," Joshua called out
