Semua Bab Who's the Substitute Now?: Bab 581 - Bab 590

Natasha was momentarily at a loss for words as she watched Daniel gasp for air. She extended her hand and gently patted his back to comfort him."If Joshua didn't save you, you might not wake up at all. We have to settle this with the Turners!" Daniel exclaimed."It's not as serious as you're making it out to be," Natasha said, trying to calm him down.She never imagined Daniel would react so strongly to hearing Carly's name. Worried that Daniel might confront the Turners if she didn't intervene, she felt compelled to step in."How can you say it's not serious?" Daniel's tone rose. "The Turners raised such a spoiled daughter and aren't even embarrassed about it. It's just shameful."Feeling unable to talk him down, Natasha let out a quiet sigh.When she spotted Jane walking toward them with drinks, Natasha motioned for her to bring them over. Jane approached to offer them the tray. Natasha picked out a cup of calming tea and handed it to Daniel."Uncle Daniel, have some tea to c

As Natasha walked on, she suddenly felt disoriented, as if she had lost her way.Sullivan Villa seemed to have undergone recent renovations, with many areas appearing different.The place felt both familiar and unfamiliar at the same time as Natasha wandered through the transformed landscape.She could only go with her gut and keep moving forward.Natasha ended up at the tall wall by the water, with black tiles on top and a cool wavy design at the highest part. There was no way forward.Feeling a bit awkward, Natasha scratched her head as she hesitated in front of the wall.Now, she had no choice but to wait for her uncle to catch up. Yet, despite waiting patiently, there was no sign of Daniel."Lost your way after being away for so long?" A warm voice suddenly reached her ears.Natasha turned toward the sound.In front of her stood a man in his 50s, dressed in a black silk shirt and loose trousers. Despite his age, there wasn't a single gray hair on his head.Natasha's eyes

Natalie's mind buzzed with endless possibilities at the thought of Philip regaining his consciousness.Among all the possibilities swirling in her head, one thing was clear: Philip waking up would only spell trouble for her.Natalie's gaze was fixed on the phone screen. She clenched her fists tightly as she struggled to calm herself down.She was torn. Should she answer this call for Joshua?She couldn't make a decision. She was genuinely afraid of answering the phone and hearing Philip's voice—it would terrify her.Natalie clenched and relaxed her hands in a constant cycle of uncertainty. Hovering her hand over the phone, she hesitated to answer the call.She couldn't tell how long the phone had been ringing, but eventually, it stopped.Natalie's fingers finally relaxed, and she leaned over, taking deep breaths.She slowly walked over to the phone and held it in her hand.The moment she got hold of the phone, her mind began to wander. She found herself tempted to unlock it an

"Josh, it's Grandpa! Do you think he's awake?"Seeing Joshua approaching her, Natalie quickly put on a surprised and happy expression, as if eager to know Philip would be fine.Joshua couldn't bother to reply to Natalie. He was too excited. He grabbed the phone and answered the call immediately.Once he placed the phone to his ear, a long and quick conversation started.However, the call was not in speaker mode, so even if Natalie pricked up her ears, she couldn't hear what the caller was saying.She was very anxious, desperate to know what Philip was saying. This was a matter of life and death for her.Natalie gritted her teeth nervously and paced around Joshua, trying to eavesdrop on their conversation.However, Joshua wasn't as excited as she expected him to be. Instead, he was frowning, and the black pupils in his eyes seemed as cold as a frozen lake.Natalie was suddenly puzzled.Something was wrong. If Philip was awake, shouldn't Joshua be happy? Why was he frowning like

"If you feel upset, let me drive. I can do it," Natalie said.While speaking, Natalie immediately lowered her head, trying to release her seatbelt, intending to switch places with Joshua.She didn't expect her words to make him even more frustrated.He turned to her, his eyes clear, cold, and intimidating."Can you keep quiet for a moment?" he said.His gaze was terrifying. Natalie felt scared but bit her lips and feigned calmness.She feigned a confused expression as if she didn't understand why he would be so angry and nodded quickly.She muttered, "Josh, I'm sorry… I will stop talking. Please don't be angry at me."Joshua remained silent in response to her apology. He rested one hand on the steering wheel and the other on the window, appearing incredibly annoyed.He even suddenly had the urge to light another cigarette to ease his tension. But he endured it.His gaze remained fixed ahead like he was an eagle, enveloping the car in a stifling situation.Natalie sat quietly
