Natalie pressed her lips together with a sense of helplessness and nodded. “Okay.” Before leaving,
Jeremy said to Skr again, “Thank you for taking care of Natalie.”
Skr just watched him, feeling a bit strange seeing how he acted as if he and Natalle hadn’t
divorced.
After Jeremy left, she turned to look at Natalie.
But, before she could say anything, Natalie quickly said, “We were clear about everything when we
divorced. Buttely, he’ll act like we haven’t separated whenever we run into each other. No matter
how much I tell him, he just keeps behaving this way.”
“He probably regrets divorcing you,” Skr remarked, feeling ly emotional.
It was obvious that Jeremy loved Natalie. The infidelity was likely due to external influences,
perhaps some kind of bad influence or something. It seemed like fate was ying a cruel joke on
him.
Natalie’s eyes dimmed. Then, she got out of bed and sat back at the table, finishing her chicken
soup.
After taking a few sips, she said, “It’s impossible for us to be together again. You know, I’ve seen
the video of him with Annabelle. I can’t forget it. I know I’m being selfish by wanting to run away. But
recently, I realized that I’ve let go of my feelings for him.”
Perhaps knowing they were never meant to be in this lifetime made it easier to let go of such deep
emotions. Thinking about it now, Natalie suddenly felt quite cold–hearted.
After leaving, Jeremy went to see Austin.
They looked at each other until Austin broke the silence. “Mr. Hughes, if you have something to say,
just say it.”
“Do you like Natalie?” Jeremy asked bluntly.
Austin smiled and said, “Yes, I do.”
Jeremy’s expression darkened. “You should find someone else. Natalie is my wife.”
“Ex–wife,” Austin corrected him before adding, “Mr. Hughes, you should show some restraint.
Natalie isn’t someone you can be trifled with, and what you’re doing now is more likely to hurt her.”
Jeremy’s expression changed drastically, and his gaze grew intense and oppressive as he stared
at
Austin,
Meanwhile, Austin wasn’t bothered by Jeremy’s intimidating presence and continued. “She seems
to have feelings for me recently. You should know when to stop and not be the third party
between us.”
“Austin Powell! Do you know who you’re talking to? Do you know who I am? I could destroy
everything you’ve worked for in the entertainment industry over the past decade easily!” Jeremy
shouted in anger.
But Austin remained calm. “Why else do you think I’vee this far other than because of my talent
and hard work? Do you think you can really suppress me? You can’t destroy me.”
Natalie still felt unwell, so she went to bed early in the evening.
Skr didn’t feel sleepy, so she turned on a smallmp and read an e–book. She also handled
some work Janine had sent her.
“Skye, someone sent this picture of a ring asking us to verify if it’s real and if it has any special
meaning. The order came a few days ago, but I just got to it,” Janine had messaged.

Skr had handed over theplete management of the store to her adoptive mother, Janine.
They had hired a few employees, and all items for sale were authenticated. However, some
customers still requested appraisals.
The processing times were noted to be anywhere between seven days to half a month, with urgent
orders eligible for cancetion.
So, Skr opened the picture and zoomed in on the ring.
The ring exuded a strong sense of antiquity even through the screen–it was indeed an artifact.
But…
Skr suddenly focused on the details. Subtle patterns co surface. However, there was something
odd about it.

As the pictures were not taken in high resolution, the patterns weren’t very clear, so she couldn’t be
entirely sure what to make of them yet. She couldn’t sense the ring’s full historical significance
despite it clearly being an antique,
