Chapter 114
Xavier was speechless. Jennifer really was the queen of drama queens. โMr. Simpson, you should get a doctor first. Mr. Garcia isnโt exactly a doctor.โ
Nick snapped. โXavier, stop wasting time. Tell Easton that Jennifer did it because of him. He needs to get to the hospital ASAP. Iโm texting you the address.โ Nick hung up right after.
Xavier glanced at Easton and said, โMr. Garcia, that was Mr. Simpson. Ms. Simpson attempted suicide because of you.โ
Easton frowned, โLetโs go see her.โ
Xavier was speechless. He thought, โOf course, in Mr. Garciaโs eyes, Jennifer is the most important.โ
Xavier received the hospital address and went to the underground parking garage with Easton.
At Natalieโs company, Natalie and Maurice had breakfast together.
Maurice had a morning meeting, so Natalie saw him off, waiting for his assistant to bring the car around. While waiting at the door, they chatted happily. The breeze gently lifted Natalieโs hair, revealing her graceful neck and pretty collarbone.
Her eyes were bright with laughter, and she looked radiant in the sunlight. Just as Eastonโs car turned the corner, he saw the vibrant Natalie. With a gentle look in his eyes, Maurice stood beside her, and somehow, they seemed perfectly matched.
Easton felt a rush of uncontrollable anger rising within him, and he growled, โStop the car.โ
Xavier also noticed Natalie and Maurice, and hearing Eastonโs angry voice, he wondered if Easton was upset. Xavier thought, โAfter everything he did, what right does he have to be angry?โ
Xavier quickly stopped the car. Easton flung open the car door and got out. Eastonโs tall figure walked up to Natalie, his handsome face clouded, and a powerful chill spread around her.
Natalie furrowed her brow and watched Easton warily. She thought, โWhat is wrong with this jerkโs expression?โ Easton said, โNatalie, Jennifer tried to kill herself. You need to come to the hospital with me.โ
Natalieโs gaze sharpened. And she thought, Jennifer tried to commit suicide? She sneered, โIf you divorce me, even from her grave, sheโd try to marry you, so why should her suicide matter to me?
โIf she dies and you join her, wonโt that be better for me? Iโm still your wife, so all your property will be mine.
โHurry to the hospital to see her. If youโre planning a loverโs suicide, give me a call in advance so I can arrange your funerals.โ
Easton was so angry, โNatalie, youโฆโ
Maurice chuckled a bit rudely. Easton gave Maurice a cold glare.
Maurice laughed and explained, โSorry, Mr. Garcia, but what does your beloved girl committing suicide have to do with Natalie? Youโre just trying to upset her.โ
Natalie thought Maurice really nailed it; the word โupsetโ fit perfectly. โMaurice, the carโs here. Go to the office first, and Iโll call you later,โ Natalie said gently.
Maurice looked at her with concern, โNatalie, how about I stay with you?โ
โNo worries, I can handle it.โ Natalie gave him a reassuring smile. โAnd by the way, the steak this morning was delicious, thank you!โ
Seeing that she liked it, Maurice was happy. โNatalie, if you like it, Iโll bring you some more tomorrow. Itโs imported, of really top quality.โ
โThanks, Maurice, my grandpa loves it too.โ She didnโt hesitate to accept since her grandpa liked it.
After Maurice left, Natalie turned to Easton and said, โYou can leave now. Iโm not going to the hospital, and Iโve cut ties with all of you. Please donโt come and bother me anymore.โ
โNatalie, how can you be so heartless? Jenniferโs suicide today was because of what happened. Isnโt it all because of you?โ Easton was furious. She smiled so sweetly at other men, but her tone was icy towards him.
Natalie frowned, her eyes blazing with uncontrollable rage as she shouted, โYou jerk, how can todayโs mess possibly be because of me? No one knows the connection between Jennifer and the Smith family better than you do.
โAnd you, you blind fool, every time something happens to Jennifer, itโs all my fault. I did absolutely nothing, and yet itโs somehow my fault?
Jason had Zach pick on me, Jennifer allowed Zach to humiliate me, and you want me to take the blame for Jenniferโs suicide.
โEaston, if you dare push me one more time, Iโll expose your relationship to the world.
โAnyway, Iโve already been hurt once by you two jerks. Dying was incredibly painful, but if I have to face it again, Iโm not afraid.โ
Natalie raised her phone and clicked on a video. It was footage of Jennifer and Zach in bed at a hotel.
In the video, Zach said, โJennifer, you are so gorgeous. Iโm so in love with you. Donโt worry, Iโll make sure to handle Natalie properly.โ
โI wonder if Easton would be jealous knowing how stunning you look under me,โ Zach said in a rush of passion.
Jennifer replied, โAhโฆ Zach, this is the last timeโฆโ
Eastonโs pupils suddenly trembled, feeling like his eyes had been deeply insulted.
Natalie sneered, โWhat? Is your treasured angel not as perfect as you thought she was? Feeling disgusted now?
โYou think theyโre disgusting, but I find both of you equally repulsive.
โDo you know why I havenโt released this video yet? Because I want to see you, Jennifer, send each one of them to hell.โ Natalie put down her phone, her gaze becoming even harsher. โSo, do you think Jennifer is willing to die?โ After Natalie finished speaking, she went into the company.
Easton looked deeply at her back and asked, โNatalie, where did these videos come from?โ
Natalie stopped, turned around, and said to him, โWhat? You think the videos are fake? Youโre wrong. You can check the hotel records, because it happened only a few days ago, and you can look it up anytime.
โBut Jennifer is also a computer expert, so you might not find any clues. Every time you guys framed me, she would always produce evidence,
โSome of it she faked herself, but you blind fools could never see it. She can secretly scheme against me, so why canโt I?
โDo you know why she is so determined to see me dead? Because I know many of her secrets. Iโm someone who must die, and you, youโve always been her accomplice."
Natalie gave a faint smile, one that was both sad and beautiful. Eastonโs heart was filled with sharp pain. Earlier, he saw her chatting with Maurice and was too impulsive.
The comment about Jenniferโs suicide being because of her just drove Natalie even further away. Easton turned around in frustration and got into the car, telling Xavier, โBack to the office.โ
Xavier was taken aback, โBack to the office?โ
Eastonโs expression was cold and distant, his lips pressed tightly together, and anger radiated from deep within him.
Xavier was surprised. He thought, โWhat have I missed in their conversation while I was in the car? Eastonโs anger erupts from deep within and itโs too frightening. Better to say nothing at all.โ
Natalie had just returned to her office when an unknown call came in. She had already blocked all the numbers from the Simpson family, so it wasnโt surprising that it was someone from them.
As soon as Natalie answered, she was met with the angry voice of Nick. โNatalie, get to the hospital now. Jennifer tried to take her own life because of you. You need to come and give her a blood transfusion.โ
Natalie laughed angrily. โMr. Simpson, do you think she would even dare to use my blood?โ
