Chapter 161

Aвтор: Bodhi Blossom
Daphne was no match for a young woman like Rita. It wasn't as if they had anything to gain from fighting each other anyway.

Losing her patience, Rita snapped, "I was in a good mood when I offered you three days to move your stuff out of my villa earlier, Daphne, but I've changed my mind. You have one day—maximum—to pack up and get out! Humph!"

Rita then left without a backward glance.

A moment later, the crowd who'd gathered to watch the fight slowly dispersed when they realized the show was over.

Daphne grabbed her phone and went on social media. She was immediately greeted by trending news of Hugh and the mistress he'd been fooling around with. There was clear footage of them tucking closely to each other's side, and Hugh's eyes were glued on Rita.

The next second, Daphne was so furious that she threw her phone on the ground, then plopped down on the floor as she bawled her eyes out. "I can't believe he'd cheat on me with another woman! How could he do this to me?"

    "You're hurt?" Natalie asked.It was only then that Rowan noticed the cut on the back of his hand. It must've happened earlier, when they had suddenly accelerated. The momentum had caused him to slam into the flowers, and one of the stems had probably sliced his skin.He'd been so bothered by the ruined bouquet that he hadn't even noticed the cut. "It's nothing. Just a scratch," Rowan answered nonchalantly.Compared to the nearly fatal gunshot wound from before, that was indeed a small injury. Still, it wouldn't be smart to leave a fresh, still-bleeding wound untreated.Rowan continued to study the menu and place their order, while Natalie got to her feet. "I'll be right back.""Okay."A few minutes later, she returned with a plastic bag in her hand. Rowan watched as she sat in the empty seat next to him and slowly opened it. Inside were gauze, a tube of antiseptic, and a pack of cotton swabs. As it turned out, she had gone to buy those supplies when she stepped out earlier.

    Traffic near Whittler Street was always terrible. Natalie invariably encountered a mind-numbing level of congestion whenever she took that road."I get it. There's no rush anyway, so take your time," she said.Her words helped ease the frustration Rowan was feeling while stuck in traffic. Holding his phone, he chuckled. "That's very understanding of you."Leaning back into the soft seat, Natalie stared out at the neon city lights. "That's just how I am. You just don't know me very well, Mr. Mattel."Didn't know her? Oh, he knew her. In fact, he knew her better than he knew himself.Rowan joked, "I guess I'll have to spend more time with you in the future, Ms. Sutton, to get to know you more thoroughly."Instantly, Natalie's cheeks flushed crimson, and she fell silent. Thoroughly? How "thoroughly" exactly? It wasn't until a few beats later that Rowan realized his choice of words might have been a little inappropriate, and he instinctively wanted to explain. But Landon, who was

    The pressure around her neck was suffocating. Sienna's panic kicked in hard as she clawed at Jason's hand. Her thick glasses slipped from her face and clattered to the ground. His voice dropped to a dangerous whisper. "Sienna, even now, you have the audacity to push me into hurting Natalie? How dare you?" Her face had turned a sickly shade from the lack of oxygen. She thrashed weakly, choking out. "L-Let… go…"Jason's eyes were cold. His grip tightened as he leaned in, each word biting like steel. "Yes, I want Natalie. But I won't let you use me like some pawn. If I really did what you said, she'd only hate me more. You think she'd ever want to spend her life with me, then?" He scoffed, furious. "That would be the end of everything."Sienna's hands, once frantically pounding at his arms, began to go limp—her strength draining fast. And still, he didn't let go. "Why didn't I see how twisted your heart really is before? If not for you, Natalie and I wouldn't have ended up like

    Natalie didn't love him anymore. But it didn't bother Jason. Since when did love have to be mutual? How often did two people truly feel the same, at the same time, in the same way? As long as he loved her, wasn't that enough? Once that truth settled in Jason's mind, the tension in his body began to ease, just slightly. That was when his phone rang. It was Sienna. …Jason returned to his apartment. The elevator doors slid open, and there she was. Sienna was waiting outside the door. As soon as she saw him, she rushed forward, all sweetness and submission. "Jason, you're finally back. I've been waiting so long for you." There was a time when she had the keys to every one of his homes. Even the spare key to his office sat in her purse. But now? Now, she could only wait like a stranger in the hallway. It was all thanks to Natalie. She had ruined everything. Once her vision recovered, the first thing she'd do was settle the score. Jason instinctively pulled back from h

    Jason's eyes turned cold in an instant. His fists clenched tight. He had known that Natalie wouldn't give him a warm welcome. But even with all the mental preparation, the sting of her slap burned through his self-control, leaving anger simmering beneath his skin.Meeting her gaze—filled with nothing but contempt—his voice dropped to a dark, hollow murmur. "Natalie, do you really hate me that much?"Natalie had always loved passionately and hated even more so. When she loved him, it was with her entire soul. But now that she hated him, it was with the kind of venom that wished him dead.There was nothing left in her to offer—no kindness, not even a sliver of forgiveness. No matter how much regret Jason wore on his sleeve, it wouldn't move her. She would never betray the version of herself that had suffered in silence for three years."Yes, I hate you that much. You're disgusting to me. Just the sight of you makes me want to throw up. So do me a favor and get lost. At the very l

    Jason was a cautious man—meticulous even. He'd done his homework. After confirming that Natalie had failed to repay her loan to Morgenstern Bank on time and hearing how David from the bank had exploded in fury, news had spread rapidly through the finance industry.That was why he'd sent Bruce today—not only to initiate discussions but to probe for any useful intel Natalie might let slip.Originally, Jason had no intention of signing anything today. But Rowan's unexpected appearance had completely thrown off his game.His expression darkened. "Chandler, why do you think Rowan suddenly took an interest in the port?" Chandler, also a man, understood all too well. But some things, even when obvious, weren't safe to say aloud. So, he said nothing. After a long pause, Jason's voice dropped low and deadly. "It's not the port he's interested in. It's Natalie."Chandler's eyes flicked to the bulging vein on Jason's temple and the clenched fist at his side. A sense of foreboding settle
