Chapter 527 Habitual Dependence
Natalie was intoxicated, and deeply at that.
That night, Blanca didn’t return to her own home. Instead, she stayed by Natalie’s side all
night as Natalie suffered from severe vomiting.
Lydia and Xyla were frantic, especially considering Natalie’s already delicate health.
“Ms. Sanders, please talk to Ms. Walker! Her body can’t handle alcohol,” Lydia expressed
her
concerns.
Natalie’s eyes were already bad, so what would happen if she continued drinking like
this?!
Bianca nodded in acknowledgment.
After everything was settled and Lydia and Xyla had left, Bianca looked at the pale–faced
Natalie lying in bed with a tightness in her chest.
“Liars, they’re all liars!”
In Natalie’s world, wasn’t the relationship between Cedric and Irwin nothing more than
deceit?
Their very existence hurt her! And they had been deceiving her for far too long!
Over time, even if Natalie wanted to deny investing emotions into it, it was impossible
because she had indeed put her heart into it.

So, the pain she felt now was excruciating.
Yes.
Natalie was currently in pain.
Buzzing vibrations from Bianca’s phone interrupted her thoughts. Seeing it was a call from
Zane, she answered.
“Hello.”
“Where are you?”
“Nat’s drunk. I won’t be going home tonight. I’ll stay with her,” Bianca said, glancing
subconsciously at Natalie.
There was a slight change in the man’s breathing on the other end of the call before he
responded, “Alright!”
Without waiting for Bianca to say more, he hung up abruptly.

The world quieted down.
All that remained was Natalie’s murmurs, “Liars… Liars…”
Bianca sighed, gently running her fingers through Natalie’s soft hair.
How deeply had Natalie been hurt?
She couldn’t even lie still while intoxicated.
Bianca had to admit that this incident was more than just a setback for Natalie.
When faced with such a truth, the past injuries seemed trivial!
Indeed, what did those past hurts amount to?
The morning after her drinking spree, Natalie had a pounding headache. The intense pain
woke her up.
Someone handed her a glass of water, and Natalie looked up to see who it was. When she
saw it was Bianca, she instantly relaxed.
She took the water from Bianca and downed it. With the glass empty, some of the
tightness in her chest eased.
“You stayed with me all night, didn’t you?”
Compared to yesterday, Natalie was much more sober now.
Bianca nodded, “How could I leave you in the state you were in last night?
As always, during Natalie’s most vulnerable moments, Bianca was always there by her
side.!
Just like before, even without saying anything, the mere presence of Bianca’s company
stirred emotions in Natalie’s heart.
“Thank you.”
“Didn’t we agree there was no need for such things?” Bianca looked at her with a smile.

“So, you finally realize your tolerance for alcohol is poor?”
Natalie had always been the hardest to handle when she was drunk
“I only do it around you,” Natalie replied candidly.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have texted Bianca the moment she returned. To be honest, her
dependence on Bianca over the years had become a habit.
Bianca set the empty glass aside, taking Natalie’s hand with a slightly firmer grip. Natalie

Taking a deep breath, Bianca said, “I never expected…”
Her voice trailed off, weighed down by the gravity of the unspoken words.
It was clear that Natalie was grappling with some immense burden, a weight that Bianca
also felt deeply.
A storm seemed to brew in Natalie’s eyes.
“Yes, I never expected it either,” she echoed.
Indeed, she had never known about the chaos in Wexford. Neither Irwin nor Cedric had
ever informed her about it.
Not just the turmoil in Wexford but also everything that had transpired there.
“Bia!”
“Yes?”
“What would you do if you were in my shoes?”
After returning from Wexford, Natalie felt like her world had been thrown into chaos.
