Natalie eyed him skeptically. She had slept deeply last night and had no recollection of anything.

After thinking for a moment, she asked, "How exactly did you get in last night? | asked you yesterday, and you

didn't answer

——

Easton smiled. Standing under the light, he appeared even more dignified. His voice was deep and magnetic as

he replied, "I climbed over the wall. Look, my hands and arms are all scraped up. After | showered last night, the

wounds seemed to get infected."

ic extended his arm, showing her his hand, which bore scratches. The wounds, soaked in water, were now oozing

a yellowish liquid.

Natalie understood the pain. Even the slightest breeze could make it sting.

She sneered, "There were so many times you pusheddown, and my palms ended up like this-burning with

pain. Serves you right."

As she walked out the door, she added, "Thanks for lettingknow. Once the snow stops, I'll have the butler

install barbed wire on the walls. Let's see how you manage to climb in next time." Easton glanced at the scrapes

on his hand and thought back to the times he'd pushed Natalie down to protect Jennifer. He hadn't bothered to

check if Natalie was hurt and had walked away. At that time, he had just taken over the company and was

dedicating most of his tto it, leaving him little opportunity to pay attention to her.

But last night, he really had climbed over the wall, and the scrapes on his hands cfrom that. To avoid her

suspecting that he knew the code, he had no choice but to resort to such measures.

Only now did he realize how painful scraped palms could be. He felt guilty and didn't even try to argue. "Let's go

down and have breakfast," he said.

Natalie frowned at him, her frustration giving way to sarcasm. "Easton, this is my house, not yours. And we're

getting divorced. Can you respect sboundaries? Your relationship with Jennifer is always murky. Are you

implying that our situation is the same?" Easton raised an eyebrow, smiling. "We are legally married. How could

our relationship be murky?"

Natalie was momentarily at a loss for words, forgetting that they weren't officially divorced yet.

Her anger flared. "Fine. Starting tomorrow-no, starting today-don't chere again. My grandpa and brother will

be back in a few days. If you don't want to get thrown out, do yourself a favor and stay away!"

Easton's actions had disrupted her life. She couldn't understand him and never had. Whatever he did was a

mystery to her. When Easton heard her trying to kick him out again, the anger inside him began to burn. He

snapped, "Natalie, why do you keep trying to pushaway? I've told you before, we're a married couple, and

we should live together,

"Either you move back to my place, or I'll move in here. Even if your grandpa and brother cback, I'll find a

way to stay, I've warned you before, don't maketake action against your brother."

Furious at his threat, Natalie shot back, "Easton, the divorce is happening! | won't stay your wife! Look at my

chest. You threwout of the car last time, and | got hit by another one.

"It's been a long time, but it still hurts so much. Why would | want to stay married to someone as unstable as

you?!

easily find myself a young, handsguy. Wouldn't that be so much better?

"And don't think you can use my brother to threaten me. I've told you before-I don't care about anything, so your

threats are useless."

She had always been cautious, ensuring her brother's identities remained hidden. Easton only knew her brother's

name, James, and likely couldn't uncover anything more.. Natalie was trembling with rage. Once, her love for

him had been so deep that she had lost herself entirely. But he had never taken her feelings seriously, hurting

her tand again. She said, "Easton, wasn't my leaving you exactly what you wanted all along? I've already

left. Why can't you just letgo?

"Tonly ever loved you. Why are you treatinglike this? | married you and saved your life. You couldn't even be

grateful- not that | care for your gratitude.

"You already paidback for the medical expenses back then. Aside from the divorce certificate, there's

nothing left between us."

Natalie gritted her teeth, furious to the core, tears welling up in her eyes.

Seeing her tears, Easton slightly clenched his hands at his sides. "I've already said, | was wrong in the past, and

I'm sorry."

Natalie sneered, "I've also said that your apology is worthless. You don't deserve to apologize to me! And | will

never forgive you!"

With that, she turned and headed downstairs. Easton watched her retreating figure, turbulent emotions swirling

in his eyes, and followed her down.

When Peter saw Easton, his gaze darkened slightly. "Ms. Shawn, why is he here again?"

Natalie walked toward the dining room, sneering, "He climbed over the wall. Tell the security team tonight to

stay on duty 24/7. The moment there's any movement, callimmediately. "Ask them to call the police right

away if they catch this man climbing in again."

Peter glanced at Easton and replied, "Understood."

Easton frowned but then chuckled. He said calmly, "Natalie, do you really think you can get rid oflike this?

Don't forget, we're still in business together.

"The contract | signed with you lasts three years, and you're still my wife.coming to find you isn't exactly

illegal."

Natalie turned to look at him in disbelief. "Easton, how dare you trick me!"

Easton's smile turned calculating. "Natalie, you're brilliant, but in business, contract traps are the most

dangerous. A seemingly flawless contract can hide endless pitfalls."

Natalie was stunned-she'd been outmaneuvered by Easton again. "Easton, you-

Easton cut her off with a smirk. "You've got two options now. Either terminate your contract with Carl and

becthe design director at my company, or paythe penalty for breaching the contract-a hundred million

dollars." Natalie was so shocked that she almost bit her tongue. "Easton, you're shameless!"

She glared at him with resentment. Her designs had been plagiarized, and in her desperation to escape him, she

had the designs to him. She hadn't realized the contract contained such a trap.

"| don't believe it. I'm going to the office to check. I'm not falling for your tricks." With that, Natalie sat down at

the dining table and began eating her ravioli.

Peter had quietly left at spoint, leaving only Easton and Natalie in the dining room.

Easton loved ravioli too, especially the ones made by Natalie. They tasted even better.

The ravioli, paired with brown butter sauce, were the perfect comfort food on a cold winter morning.

Easton, too, enjoyed the ravioli, savoring them in silence as the two ate breakfast together.

After a few bites, Natalie glanced at Easton, thinking, 'Even after all this, he can still sit across fromcalmly

eating

reakfast. He truly has no shame!"

She tightened her grip on the spoon, frustrated at being outsmarted by him yet again.

After breakfast, Natalie messaged Luna, asking her to review the contract.

Half an hour later, Luna replied: [Natalie, the contract does say that. Didn't you read it carefully at the time? You

brought trouble upon yourself.] SEND GIFT
