Chapter 1344


    Caitlin was about to invite the bodyguard into the house as well, but he said all of a sudden, "I shall


    wait for you at the management office, Madam.Just give me a call when you''re done with your business


    here or if anything happens."


    "All right" Natalie nodded.


    She had thought about having the bodyguard wait outside too as Caitlin and Jonathan would probably


    feel ufortable being around him.


    That was the main reason Natalie chose to bring only one bodyguard with her and had the other three


    remain at the hotel.


    "Here you go, Madam."


    The bodyguard then handed Natalie a few bags before making his way toward the elevator.


    "It''s okay to let hime in with you, Nat," Caitlin said.


    "Don''t worry about it, Mrs.Rivers.We''ll just have him wait for me outside" Natalie replied with a smile.


    Since she had put it that way, Caitlin decided not to argue any further and led her into the house while


    Jonathan shut the door behind them.


    "Here, I brought you two some nutritional supplements!" Natalie said while handing them the bags.


    Caitlin waved at her.


    "Oh, no, we can''t ept this gift!"? N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    "That''s right.Joyce brought us a lot of stuff too when she came back a few days ago.She told us it was


    a gift from you.We''ve already epted those, so we can''t be epting these anymore.Please, do take


    them back!" Jonathan added.


    Of course, Natalie had anticipated that they would refuse her gifts.


    "Oh, but I insist!"


    "No, we really can''t be epting such expensive gifts!"


    Caitlin eximed.


    Had Justin not told them the price of the stuff Joyce brought them, they would never have guessed that


    it was worth hundreds of thousands.


    As such, they figured the supplements that Natalie bought them were also ridiculously expensive.


    "I understand your concern, but this stuff really isn''t expensive for me at all.Also, these are from both


    me and my husband.He is extremely grateful to you two for showering me with so much love and


    care.That''s why I must insist that you two ept these gifts as our token of appreciation.Besides, it''d


    be really hard for me to carry all of them back, no?" Natalie said as she ced the bags on the coffee


    table.


    Caitlin and Jonathan exchanged conflicted looks after hearing that.


    "But..."


    Eventually, Jonathan gave in and nodded at her.


    "In that case, we''ll ept your gifts.Thank you, Natalie.Oh, please give our thanks to your husband


    too."


    "Don''t mention it! You two had saved me, my two kids, and my mother back then!" Natalie replied with


    a hint of mncholy in her eyes.


    Six months have passed since Mom died...


    Time really flies, huh?


    "Oh, we were just doing what anyone else would''ve done! Helping those in need is the right thing to


    do!"


    Caitlin said as she sat down on the couch.


    Natalie nodded.


    "You''re absolutely right, Mrs.Rivers!"


    "Jonathan, how about you go cut up some fruits for Nat?" Caitlin asked while giving him a pat on the


    shoulder.


    "Sure” Jonathan mumbled and made his way over to the kitchen.


    After taking a moment to nce around the living room, Natalie asked, "By the way, where is Joyce? Is


    she not home right now?"


    "She went out shopping with Justin earlier’ Caitlin replied while pouring her a cup of tea.


    Natalie gave her a confused look.


    "Justin? Who''s that?"


    "Justin Sutter.He''s the kid of the family who lived next door twenty years ago.He likes Joyce, so he


    came looking for her"


    Caitlin exined with a chuckle.


    "Oh, I see..." Natalie nodded.


    Huh...


    So this guy who likes Joyce just popped out of nowhere all of a sudden? Could he have something to


    do with the recent strange incidents? Mrs.Rivers said he was their neighbor twenty years ago, so Joyce


    was only about six at the time.


    Justin can''t be too far off either, so he was probably about ten at most.


    What could a ten-year-old kid possibly know about love? On top of that, they haven''t seen each other


    for twenty years now! Would he really still have feelings for her after so long? And even if he was that


    precocious and fell for Joyce at that age, why didn''t hee sooner? Why wait for twenty years? Not


    only did he wait so ridiculously long, but he also came right when Joyce was disying abnormal


    behavior! Therefore, it''s highly possible that he has something to do with her sudden change!
