LOGINNATHALIE’S POV đ
-
Until I got back to the apartment building, Avery’s words and advice to me ran through my mind before she got in the car. I had thought about that too and I was scared a few times. Even I witnessed how good they are at lying, but I ignored that thing.
I sighed before opening the door.
After spraying alcohol all over my body including my bag, I went inside and heard my son’s voice.
NATHALIE’S POV đ-I back my eyes at the pictures again.If I didn’t know about these things, I’d have long been swimming in my own tears, drowning overthinking what Calix is up to.“Nathalie, what is the deepfake you are talking about?” Donna asked curiously.I grinned and explained, “The deep fake, it’s the same as editing or changing the pictures, videos and sound effects, the deepfake is done more meticulously. Just like this video. Let’s say this video was from another website — whoever’s in it has about the same body type as Calix, so that’s why they used it. But I’m positive it’s not Calix in the video or the pictures.”“How could that not be Mr. Calix? We clearly saw his face, and that evil wicked Veronica too.&rdqu
NATHALIE’S POV đ-“Since moving to Mr. Calix’s parents’ mansion, I expected Brianna would change, and go back to how she was before, without you. But Brianna’s situation got even harder after we moved there. She didn’t speak to anyone, not even Madame Beatrice and Mr. Ethan. She almost never paid me any mind. I just had to be more patient with her at the time. I mean... what I’m trying to say is, I never neglected her. I took care of her as much as I possibly could.”I smiled briefly.“The only one she allows to go freely to her room is Ma’am Veronica.”Only Veronica? That’s really odd.“Once, when I was bringing food to Brianna, I found Ma’am Veronica just coming out of Brianna’s room. Ma’am Veronica was visibly angry, I immediately felt worried about Brianna. When I went to see her, I found her in the ba
VERONICA’S POV đ-“He says it’s okay now,” Rowena told me, putting the phone down on the table. “The photos and USB, have been sent to the reception desk. Nathalie will just pick them up.”We’re together now, dining on a VIP floor.“Nathalie might see her special delivery any minute now,” she added.“Once she sees that, surely stop expecting Calix to come back to her, and leave on her own.”“I don’t understand why you are still doing this. You are the wife, so don’t you have the right to sue that woman.”Married? Fu*k that sh*t. Calix and I are not married, and does he think I don’t know what he did? After Calix and I got married, I saw and clearly heard from his former personal la
NATHALIE’S POV đ-Once I’d spoken with Avery, I reflected on her words, though not the part about Sapphire’s schooling; I intended to do that all along.But, I want to wait.We’re so close to having our family complete, just a little time and putting all our trust in Calix.I looked at my phone screen when it rang.Tyler requested a video call, which I answered.[“Hi, Nathalie!”] he greeted happily on the other line.I wouldn’t have noticed anything if Sapphire hadn’t shared what she saw. I would’ve simply ignored my suspicions toward Tyler.[“Sapphire just went to sleep.”]“That’s good to hear. Ty, you said you had something you wanted to
NATHALIE’S POV đ-Harrison didn’t tell me the details of the problem he mentioned at Calix’s parents’ mansion, as he said he wasn’t sure what it was.I didn’t ask any more questions. All that matters is I got some details about Calix’s situation.In addition, I have greater trust in Calix than anyone else.“Thanks for tonight, Harrison.”“That’s nothing, Nat. Get some rest right away. Call me if you change your mind so I can send some people I can trust here right away.”He offered to send me someone to clean my apartment.I turned it down because I’m scared to leave the cleanliness in someone else’s hands. After all, it matters so much to my child getting better.“Alright then, I’ll be going. Good night, Nat.”“Good night to you too. Be careful driving.”..
NATHALIE’S POV đ-“I can say for sure, Harrison has already given Anthony a call.”Harrison didn’t mention that to me.We haven’t talked about this matter. He’s busy most of the time now and can’t stay here as long as before. If he does stay longer, I’m talking with Sapphire.We nearly had the chance to discuss this, but as soon as Xander heard Calix’s name, he asked endlessly when Calix would return, and it got to the point where he was crying from missing him so badly.“That same day, Anthony dropped by Harrison’s company, but Harrison had an emergency come up so they only spoke briefly.”“After that, they haven’t spoken again?” I asked once more.“My Darling said there’s a date they’ll speak again, but I don’t know exactly when that will be.”“Is that r

NATHALIEâS POV-âWhenever youâre free,â I replied to Harrisonâs text message last night.I got back to Harrison with a text today, pretty much right after I wrapped up lunch. His message was lost in the shuffle, though, buried way down in my inbox.I was about to put my phone away, not expecting h
