Chapter 801 Where You Belong Christina had utterly lost all rational thoughts. She stood up, intending to say something hysterical to Natalie when scalding coffee splashed onto her face.
When she regained her clarity, she glared at Natalie with hatred.
"Natalie!" "Do you see it?" Natalie asked.
In the past, Christina had constantly reminded Natalie of the gap between their status. Ever since Natalie married Cedric and entered the doors of the Johnson family, everyone there repeatedly reminded her of it.
iT can do whatever I want to you now, including splashing coffee on you. And
you? There's not even a cup of coffee before you, even if you wanted one!" That meant Christina didn't even have a way to retaliate now.
Christina was speechless, and her mind went blank. She couldn't process what was happening at all.
She hadn't expected this...! When Natalie first left Verde City, she hadn't been this overbearing. Now, Natalie seemed like a stranger to Christina.
Natalie stood like a queen on a higher ground, disdainful of everything.
Those who used to look down on her now seemed like an ant in front of her.
"Go back to where you belong. You're s /11
acting like a clown now." A clown? : Christina's heart trembled even more violently when she heard Natalie's words. She would never admit to acting that way, but it seemed like she had reached that point where she couldn't even change herself.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"You say I'm a clown...?" "Even clowns have more dignity than you. I don't know if I should call you foolish or courageous to humiliate yourself in front of me." Christina had never been associated with those words before, but now Natalie was directing them all at her.
Did it hurt?
Of course, it did! For Christina, this was more than just pain. Her heart was in turmoil. Rebecca had treated Christina like her own daughter, so nobody had ever dared use such words to describe her! "Natalie, I hate you!" "Hah!" All she got in response was Natalie's cold laughter.
"I won't let you off. One day, I'll crush you under my feet!" Christina screamed.
"Go back and dream on!" Only those who had completely lost confidence in themselves would end up like that.
Christina's tantrum was like a clown act to Natalie.
Christina once thought she had Natalie under her foot, but was it really so? Christina left Westhill Enclave in a daze. She felt chilled to her bones. She thought she could remain out of prison, but she was wrong.
Was she meant to stay in there forever? She looked up and said mournfully, "Why?" Her eyes were filled with pain as she watched the bleak sky. She tried so hard to cater to everyone's tastes and live well.
Why did this happen to her? It seemed like nothing mattered anymore!
Why was heaven so cruel to her? There was a suffocating pain in { Christina's chest. At this moment, she murmured in a tone filled with hatred, ""Natalie, I'll never forgive you..." When Austin returned with Luna, Natalie was arranging flowers, looking relaxed.
Even though Christina was gone and there was no trace of her confrontation with Natalie, Austin knew everything.
you've been acting more like a father lately," Natalie said, feeling a strange sensation inside.
Austin smiled at her words.
"I'm honored by your assessment," he
said as he looked into Natalie's eyes with endless indulgence.
Facing such tenderness from the man, Natalie momentarily found herself speechless.
Austin handed Luna over to the nanny.
Then, he approached Natalie, taking the roses from her hands and carefully removing the thorns.
"Women's hands are delicate. Be careful not to scratch yourself." "T'm not that delicate." Natalie retorted.
Those who knew how she had lived before would know that she wasn't delicate at all.
Austin sat beside Natalie and added some roses to Natalie's arrangement,
skillfully enhancing its beauty.
"Do you also know how to arrange flowers?" Natalie asked.
"I can do everything you can," Austin replied.
Natalie couldn't help but wonder if this was the same man everyone used to think was foolish. At least in Natalie's eyes, Austin was far from foolish.
She wondered how he used to view those people around him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Do you know how long I studied this before?" she asked.
Back then, she had worked hard at something she didn't particularly like.
Flower arranging seemed beautiful and leisurely, but it was never Natalie's preference.
Austin raised an eyebrow. "When a person is doing something they don't like, it always takes a long time. You don't like flower arranging, do you?" "No, I don't." Even though she knew how to make beautiful arrangements like the one before her, she still didn't like it.
When Austin heard this, he was a little stunned. But then he said, "If you don't like it, don't do it in the future." Natalie fell silent. Upon hearing this, she looked at Austin. Something stirred in her heart, and she took a deep breath to suppress the heaviness in her chest.
"Alright."
Yes, it was all in the past.
She could forget everything she { disliked, just like her past. With that thought in mind, Natalie didn't hesitate to throw the freshly arranged flowers into the trash.
Austin watched her decisive action, and his smile widened. "Yeah, just like that." She should have a decisive attitude when dealing with things she didn't like.
Natalie smiled.
Then, Austin said, "Cedric has been discharged." "Is that so? It seems his injuries weren't serious." Was she too gentle when she had made
her move? However, she hadn't been gentle. It { was Cedric who was tormenting himself in this way. Because of his eye surgery, he had to endure the pain from his injuries without any painkillers.
Austin hugged her and said, "I'll make sure he leaves Dawnvale as soon as possible." Natalie fell silent.
Yes, it was time for Cedric to leave.
Rebecca and Christina had been here today.
Now, Austin ordered that even dogs from the Johnson family were not allowed to enter Westhill Enclave.
