"Josh… Is that medicine expensive? Are you really giving it to me?" Natalie seemed somewhat skeptical.Since Joshua acted tough, Natalie thought he had moved on and wouldn't look out for her anymore. So, it was surprising when he offered her the Sullivan family's medicine.Natalie's hunch proved correct. She just knew their years of bonding still meant something to Joshua.Natalie seemed genuinely unsure, so she asked again, "Josh, are you really okay with giving me the medicine? It's probably really valuable."Joshua heard Natalie's voice and glanced down at her.Natalie's eyes were sparkling with surprise. It was like when a neglected child at home suddenly received a precious treat from an adult and was filled with unbridled joy.It evoked both sympathy and an irresistible urge to share all the treats one had with her.Joshua's eyes flickered, and he pressed his lips together. "Yeah, you can use it."Natalie's whole demeanor seemed like she was about to burst with joy. "Than

"I thought I had everything sorted with the organizers. But halfway through, the Zahn family intercepted and used shady means to take away the invitation."Natalie was shocked. She wondered if it was Yakov Zahn.However, she didn't show it on her face. Instead, she put on a disgusted expression."I've heard tales of the Zahn family's underhanded dealings. They're always up to no good. I guess those rumors were true after all."As a Sullivan, we stand by our principles and decency. We can't stand people who stoop so low," Natalie declared.Knowing Joshua was likely upset about the Zahn family's actions, Natalie felt the need to support him."And it's not just us Sullivans. The Graysons from Oceanville are cut from the same cloth. We've always looked down on those who engage in such despicable behavior, haven't we?"Finishing her statement, Natalie looked up at Joshua, almost as if she were asking for his approval.Joshua reclined in his chair and showed little reaction to Natali

Joshua's expression turned pensive. "Really?"Natalie quickly nodded. "Of course. Josh, it's your fault for not coming to the apartment to see me for so many days. You've even forgotten what I look like."Her tone was a mix of frustration and hurt."I've always been pale, and with all the trouble lately… Because of this big wound, I've been bleeding so much every day. Losing so much blood naturally makes you look pale."You don't seem to care about me at all, Josh," Natalie said, sounding really upset.Joshua kept his expression cold. His eyes were locked onto hers as if he could see right through her.Natalie felt her heart racing. But she remained outwardly determined, not showing any fear as she pinned all the blame on Joshua.After staring at each other for a while, Joshua eventually relented and looked away.He then said coldly, "Fine."Natalie quickly held up three fingers and swore, "Josh, I promise I've been sticking close to you. I hardly know anyone in Oceanville."

"Shut up," Joshua finally snapped.He was unable to contain his anger any longer. He just couldn't stand hearing Natasha's name.As soon as Natasha's name was mentioned, all he could think about were those two pairs of men's leather shoes at Imperial Heights.Despite their dark, unassuming appearance, they seemed to scream betrayal at him.Joshua couldn't wrap his head around how Natasha could completely ignore all sense of decency and dare to live with another man.After all, she was not just a Grayson family daughter-in-law, but his wife!And to make matters worse, Natasha flat-out refused his request, saying she didn't receive the invitation.With Natasha acting like that, did she even love him at all? Or was it all just a lie?Joshua could feel his temples throbbing and his head spinning with anger."What's… what's wrong?" Natalie's tone turned uneasy after getting snapped at. "Did I say something I shouldn't have?"Natalie's eyes darted around, suggesting she was startin

After getting shut down multiple times by Joshua, Natalie just decided to stop talking. She was having a hard time figuring out what was going on in Joshua's head now.Meanwhile, Joshua had this fire burning inside him all because Natasha was shacking up with someone else. He was just stewing in frustration with nowhere to let it out.His decision to drop by Natalie's apartment stemmed from the remnants of guilt and sympathy lingering in his heart.Therefore, he chose to stay quiet, too. His face was tense with unspoken thoughts.The room was thick with tension. Both Natalie and Joshua seemed lost in their own thoughts, yet strangely unfazed by the silence.As Natalie and Joshua remained silent and motionless, Gina began to feel increasingly flustered at the side.As the stalemate continued, it became evident that Gina would bear the brunt of the situation.Feeling a bit lost, Gina attempted to lighten the mood. "Uh… Mr. Grayson, it looks like you've finished your tea. Shall I p

Natalie's eyes lit up with determination again as she made a decision. She took a deep breath, planning to playfully coax Joshua once more just to see how he'd react.Upon hearing Terry's response, Joshua remained stoic and simply nodded."Go ahead, give it to Ms. Lovelace." He motioned for Gina to get the medicine.Terry quickly retrieved the medicine from the ice pack and handed it to Gina, who immediately took it and crouched down to apply it to Natalie's leg.However, Natalie suddenly pulled her leg back and refused to let Gina touch it."Ms. Lovelace? Let me help you with the medicine. Can you bring your leg forward a bit? I can't quite reach that far," Gina said.Natalie seemed to be surrendering to self-doubt once again. She repeated her earlier sentiment, "I don't deserve such good medicine.""Why wouldn't you deserve it? This medicine is meant for someone as lovely as you," Gina offered, trying to comfort Natalie."I lied to Josh… I deserve the worst punishment. I'm ju

Ever since Joshua last came to Imperial Heights, Natasha hadn't seen him in almost a week. There hadn't been any word from him.As for whether Joshua got the invitation, Natasha didn't know and didn't really care.After all, things that came too easily were seldom valued. Just as with the authorization letter, so it was with the invitation.Preferring the comfort of her own company at home, she spent her time flipping through medical journals while enjoying her tea. Occasionally, when inspiration struck, she would dabble in experiments and happily jot down her findings.As for today's agenda, she planned to buy a new car.After her previous car got wrecked in that chase, she lacked the motivation to repair it. Opting instead for a fresh start, she decided to invest in a new one.She had actually planned to go car shopping the day after her car was wrecked.

Upon recalling Natasha's earlier remark, "I'll just have a look around on my own", Lily's suspicions were confirmed.It seemed Natasha was simply window-shopping without the intention or means to make a purchase.Lily's enthusiasm for catering to Natasha quickly waned.Lily's glance behind Natasha was as obvious as day, but Natasha couldn't care less about what she was thinking.In fact, Natasha saw this as an opportunity to explore the dealership without any distractions.Just then, another customer walked in.The woman was wearing a lovely dress. It was made of fancy silk in a soft yellow color, with a high neckline, cinched waist, and long flowing sleeves.With just a quick glance, Lily could tell it was the latest collection from a prestigious international brand. She was confident that the outfit would undoubtedly be worth a fortune.Additionally, the woman carried a limited edition purse from overseas. She was radiating an unmistakable air of affluence.Behind her stood

Carly nodded, saying, "We're not exactly close. It's just that my dad knows the Sullivan family."Natalie's heart skipped a beat at that.If Carly's father was acquainted with the Sullivan family, they must hold significant status in Topola.If Natalie could gain Carly's trust, then this trip wouldn't have been for nothing.Just as Natalie was about to speak, Carly gently intervened. Her tone was soft but firm."Although you've been using the Sullivan family's medicine for your injury, it's still important to take things easy. Try not to move around too much."It takes a long time to heal bones and tendons. You're getting back into things too quickly. Watch out for any further injury."She was speaking with a gentle warmth, and her eyes were filled with genuine concern.Natalie nodded repeatedly, affirming, "Yes, I'll be sure to keep that in mind. Thank you for your concern, Ms. Turner."Just as she was about to continue, the salesperson in the car dealership approached Carly

Natasha didn't understand what there was to see.She waved her hand, signaling the nearest salesperson to approach. She said, "Hello, I would like to buy a car."The salesperson, Valerie, heard her and came over. Although she responded promptly, she wasn't enthusiastic at all. She asked, "Which model are you interested in?"She appeared rather lackluster.Natasha pointed at a car in the distance and said, "That one.""Do you mean the silver-white one?" Valerie suddenly perked up with widened eyes, clearly surprised."Yes," Natasha said while nodding. She took out her card and said in a casual tone, "Credit card."Valerie's initial cold attitude was replaced with excitement as she exclaimed, "Very well. Let me assist you with the paperwork."Just moments ago, she had witnessed Lily securing such a significant sale. It made her jealous and even more so nervous.Thankfully, fate was on her side and brought her a substantial deal as well.Although the woman was beautiful, she loo
