Five Years Later, He Goes Wild for Her Again Chapter 30
It was Natalie's first day sharing the apartment with Austin, and she felt somewhat awkward and uncomfortable.She ended up locking herself in her room, reviewing a case while observing Betty in the building across the street.As evening approached, she realized that Betty had brought a middle-aged man home with her. They were hugging and kissing brazenly in the living room before the curtains were drawn shut.Natalie was shocked. After all, Betty was already half a century old. How many men was she even having sexual relationships with? Wasn't she worried that Zeke would come home and catch them in the act?Suddenly, there was a knock on her door. It startled her out of her thoughts.She hurriedly stuffed the binoculars back into her drawer and turned toward the door."What is it?""I made too much dinner. Want to eat together?"Natalie glanced at the time on her phone. She often skipped dinner because she was so busy, and it wasn't until then that she realized it was already

The document even required both parties' signatures and thumbprints for it to be legally binding.Austin set down his water bottle and leaned back against the couch, going through each line meticulously. After he was done, he picked up a pen and signed his name on the line. Then, he pressed his thumb into the pre-prepared inkpad and stamped it on the document.Natalie returned just then with two large grocery bags in her hands.She looked up, her gaze meeting Austin's deep, dark eyes, and she felt taken aback for a moment.After all, she'd been living on her own for five years, and suddenly, she was cohabiting with another man who also happened to be her ex-boyfriend.It was a little unsettling, and she would need some time to get used to it.She averted her gaze and changed into some indoor slippers before entering."Have you signed the contract?""It's signed." He then took out his phone and handed it to her.Natalie looked at it and asked, "What?""About the 'mutual assist

Hestia and Shane both walked out of the apartment and entered the elevator hand-in-hand.Shane quickly hugged her and coaxed her softly. "I'm sorry, sweetheart."Hestia shoved him off. "Get off me. I'm still going to divorce your pitiful dog ass."Shane just looked at her and suddenly barked with the most sincere look on his face.Hestia couldn't hold it in anymore and burst into a fit of giggles. However, she then murmured sadly, "I feel so sorry for Nat. I can't believe that we basically forced her into compromising by threatening divorce with each other. I feel like I've let her down."Shane just looked at her adamantly and said, "But we didn't have any other choice! How were we to know that they would each be equally as stubborn?""Nat's only staying there because she wants to investigate her dad's case. The culprit lives in the apartment building opposite us, and it would be more convenient for her to live here."But what's going on with Austin? Why won't he just move out?"

"I'm not going there," Natalie said with a shake of her head. This wasn't about the apartment or the price.She wanted to live here so that she could continue investigating Betty. She'd been wanting to move to this neighborhood half a year ago, but the rent had been very expensive, and there were few, if any, available places to rent. That was the only reason why her plans had been postponed until now.She'd finally managed to rent Hestia's vacant apartment for half the market price now, and she was definitely not moving out.More importantly, Austin's apartment was just across the hall from Emily's, and it was going to be incredibly annoying if she kept running into her.Austin took out his phone and opened up the chat window with Shane, showing it to Natalie."You're a lawyer. You should know better than me that verbal chat agreements and transfer records hold legal effect, don't you?"Natalie went silent.Austin continued. "I had already moved into this apartment half a month

That weekend, Natalie made time to move alone into Misty Heights. She worked until past midnight and was dead exhausted by the time she was done.She went to bed after taking a shower. While half-asleep, she suddenly heard noises outside the bedroom door.As a single woman living on her own for many years, she had developed a strong sense of vigilance and woke instantly, putting her guard up.She glanced at the time on her phone and saw that it was about 5:30 am, the perfect time for thieves to be out and about.Natalie was terrified. She pulled on a thin cardigan, retrieved a portable pepper spray from her bag, and carefully made her way to the door.She pressed her ear against the door, and someone suddenly began banging hard on the other side of the door, making her jump back in shock.Since when had thieves become so brazen and dared to knock so loudly on doors now?It couldn't possibly be Hestia after all, right?Natalie felt terrified. Her heart thumped wildly in her ches

After calming down for a long while, Austin forced a smile on his face that looked more like a grimace. He nodded with his lips tightly pressed together before letting out a long sigh.His eyes burned with disappointment, but he didn't say another word. He just turned resolutely, grabbed his suit jacket and tie as he passed the couch, and strode out of the apartment.Natalie leaned weakly against the wall, watching him leave.She felt as though a huge chunk of her heart had just been hacked off. It hurt so much that she couldn't breathe anymore. She clapped her hands tightly over her mouth to stop herself from making a sound as she cried and broke down in bitter tears that streamed down her face like a broken dam.She then slowly slid down to the floor against the wall until she was crouching. She couldn't stop her body from trembling, but she still held her hand to her mouth, letting the sobs escape only through her throat.Her vision turned blurry with tears, and her face and th
