Chapter 495


    3/2


    Natalle was extremely calm. Perhaps it was because she had been crying and screaming for the


    better half ofst night. She was unfazed by Jeremy. He froze for a moment before taking the food


    out of the bag.


    Natalie kept to her word. She didn’t have a single bite of his food.


    Jeremy put down his fork once Natalie finished her pasta. Everything that he’d eaten tasted horrible


    and tasteless.


    Natalie didn’t spare Jeremy a nce. She washed her dishes in the kitchen before heading straight


    toward the couch.


    Jeremy observed Natalie’s behavior intently.


    If Natalie had sobbed and screamed at him, he would’ve found a way to soothe her. Yet, she did no


    such thing. Natalie was extremelyposed.


    Natalie nestled into the couch. Then, she pulled out two copies of a divorce agreement and handed


    it to Jeremy,


    She said, “Take a look at the document. I’ll leave this marriage with nothing but the clothes on my


    back. I want nothing from you except to get divorced as soon as possible. Sign here, please.”


    Natalie spoke in an even tone. Jeremy couldn’t see a hint of love in her eyes. Perhaps it was out of


    loathing for his betrayal and scorn at her stupidity.


    Jeremy didn’t take the documents from her. His gaze was extremely cold, as though they were hot


    potatoes rather than divorce agreements.


    He insisted, “I can exin what happened with Annabelle. There’s nothing between us. I went to


    see her for a work–rted matter. When she resigned, she identally took an important business


    contract with her. Today, she tried using the contract as an excuse to ask for reparations. In


    addition, she demanded me to discuss this with her personally.”


    Natalie found his excuse hrious. He must’ve spent all morninging up with it.


    Why did Jeremy still think she was a gullible woman? Did he believe that his excuse would fool


    her?

    Natalie said, “Jeremy, I’m not the sharpest tool in the shed. Since young, I’ve never wanted to


    believe that humanity was inherently evil. However, this does not give you the right to lie to me.”


    “Nath, what you see might not always be the truth,” Jeremy stated.


    Natalie inhaled deeply to maintain herposure. Then, she said, “Jeremy, you watched me grow


    up. You were my first love, and our parents are best friends. I hope we won’t make amotion out


    of our separation. This would be a blow to their friendship.


    “You know whether you’ve cheated on me, Jeremy. I do too. Whether Annabelle was your secretary


    or your mistress is also something you know best.


    “We will be getting a divorce. I’ve been waiting for you at home to hand the divorce agreement to


    you and have a chat. I’ve packed my bags. I’ll be moving out in a bit.”


    When Jeremy heard Natalie’s serene announcement that she would be leaving, fury boiled within


    him. He dered, “I will not divorce you. That’s impossible.”


    On the way home, he’d considered many possibilities. However, he’d failed to predict the level of


    determination Natalie held.
