Chapter 974 You Finally Returned
After clearing Dream’s name at the Jones family’s press conference, the first thing Natalie did was tell Anna the good news.
Dream was not the only one that got bashed by the netizens during this period of time. Anna was a victim too.
Since the incident started, not only did Anna not complain to Natalie, but she also encouraged and consoled Natalie.
Anna sent her a smiling emoji upon receiving the news.
Natalie’s mood instantly brightened up after seeing the emoji.
The magnolias planted by the streets filled the area with its scent. The woman took a deep breath, and the strong floral fragrance instantly filled her senses.
Fortunately, everything has been successfully resolved.
When she reached home, she saw a huge bouquet of pink roses in front of the door.
Pink roses were her favorite flowers, and not many people knew of this.

She thought of the time the man “proposed” to her. He had decorated the place with a sea of pink roses. Natalie’s heart jolted at the thought of this.
Is it him?
Did he… finally return for me?
Tears welled up in her eyes and her heart started to beat faster.
During the time they were apart, Natalie was mad at him, nor could she understand him. However, among all these negative emotions, she still missed him.
She missed his hugs and his low voice, and also how attentive he was when he protected and loved her.
The sound of footsteps came from behind her. Her lips instantly curled upward, and she quickly turned around.
“You’re finally back!”
Yet, the person before her was not the one she was hoping to see.
The man was wearing a black T-shirt and army green pants. He had a warm smile on his boyish face as he looked at Natalie.
“Are you angry? I told you that I’d return immediately after I finish my assignment. I kept my promise and came back once I was done.”
With the pink roses still in her arms, she stared at the smiling man in shock and was at a loss for words.
Unable to figure out why Natalie was looking at him like that, Jerome walked over to her and flicked her on her forehead. “What’s wrong? Are you really angry? The assignment I received… It was actually quite urgent and I wanted to finish it as soon as possible too. I’ve already done

my best. I know that Dream Jewelry was in some trouble recently. But I’m finally relieved when I saw that you’ve resolved the issue on the news earlier.”
Natalie nodded after listening to his explanation. “I’m fine. Your work is more important.”
“Then, what was with your expression earlier?”
“Huh?”
“Your eyes were filled with disappointment when you looked at me,” Jerome explained. “It was so obvious that you didn’t want to see me. What else could it be if you’re not angry?”

Natalie didn’t know how she should explain it to Jerome, so she shook her head and said, “I’m not angry. Besides, you sent me such beautiful pink roses. How can I still make a fuss?”
“Really?” he asked, leaning closer to her.
“Of course.”
“Then, invite me to your place for a drink,” Jerome suggested. He had a plan in mind.
“Why?”
“We can’t drink alcohol in the army. I haven’t drank in a long time, and we haven’t drank together in a while too,” he persuaded. “Besides, you finally cleared your name today. Shouldn’t we celebrate? You only have five-year-old children at your home. You can’t possibly ask them to drink with you late at night, can you?”
That certainly made sense to Natalie after she gave it some thought.
Jerome was like a little brother to her. There wasn’t a better timing for this than now.
“Let’s go.”
“Mhm.”
They saw that only a few dim lights used to light up the pathway in the house were lit when they entered. It seemed like Emma had also gone to sleep at around ten o’clock.
Pointing at the stairs that led up to the second floor, Natalie said with a smile, “Consider yourself lucky today, Jerome. I’ve got some treasures in my wine cellar.”
