Jacqueline was beyond enraged. “Natalie, you're crossing the line here! So what if Sean said that? Do you think I
would still do that when he isn't around?”
“I see. There's nothing I can do if you refuse to follow his words.” Natalie shrugged.
Jacqueline snorted. “That's right. Don't think—”
“But I can let someone else enforce it.” Natalie cut her off abruptly.
Stunned by her words, Jacqueline blurted, “What? Enforce it?”
“Yeah!” Natalie nodded, then shouted, “Marina!”
The next second, the housekeeper came out. “Madam.”
“Your employer has said that she isn't allowed to dine with me and that she should eat in the kitchen. She refuses to
obey his order, so please bring her there,” Natalie said, pointing at Jacqueline.
The latter's eyes popped in shock. “Natalie, you—”
“Cover her mouth! I don't want to hear her disgusting voice!” Natalie commanded.
Naturally, Marina had no objections to her orders. Wasting no time, she walked over, covered Jacqueline's mouth,

After all, Sean had instructed her to listen to Natalie.
Soon, peace returned to the dining room. Only then did Natalie pick up her cutlery and start eating.
Just then, the sound of handclapping rang out from behind, followed by Sean's voice. “Not bad. I get to witness such
as interesting scene as soon as I return!”
This voice...
Natalie stiffened and whipped her head around, only to see Sean leaning against the dining room entrance and
smiling at her.
After clenching and unclenching her fists, she rose to her feet and asked, “You're back.”
“Yeah.” Sean sauntered toward her. “Nat, I'm happy that you welcomed me back. Don't you think we sound like
husband and wife?”
Natalie furrowed her brows, revolted by his words.
However, she did not show the disgust on her face. “I'm sorry, but I don't think so!”
Sean merely smiled, not the least bit infuriated by her impassiveness.
After pulling out the chair beside her, he sat down and patted her seat.
“Come on, sit down. Aren't you having breakfast? There's still a lot of food left. Continue your meal,” he urged,
staring at Natalie's plate.
Natalie bit her lip, tempted to snap at him. I lost all my appetite because of you.
Nonetheless, she knew she could not say it out.
Having taken a deep breath to repress the discomfort in her heart, she sat back down and kept her eyes cast
downward.
At that moment, Sean shouted toward the kitchen. “Marina, please prepare one set of breakfast for me.”
“You haven't had breakfast yet?” Natalie turned toward him.
Her question evoked a chuckle from him. “Nat, are you concerned about me?”
“No,” she replied, knitting her brows.
How can he be so shameless? I didn't mean that at all.
“Nat, you broke my heart.” Sean sighed, appearing to be crestfallen.
Natalie ignored him and cut up an omelet.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJust as she was about to put a piece of the omelet in her mouth, someone grabbed her hand.
Startled, she immediately lifted her head to look in that direction.
Sean was grabbing her hand and pulling it toward him.
While she tried hard to resist, she questioned, “What are you doing?”
“I'm starving. I want to eat something.” With that said, he lowered his head and ate the omelet.
Staring at him wide-eyed, Natalie stuttered, “Y-You... That's my fork!”
“I know.” Sean let go of her hand and swallowed the omelet. “That's exactly why I did this. I have to say—it tastes
even more delicious when you're the one feeding it to me,” he remarked, flashing her a smirk.
“You...” His shamelessness rendered Natalie speechless. “You pervert!” was all she could say.
When did I feed him? He was the one who snatched it from me!
In a fit of fury, she threw her fork onto the plate, not bothering to hide the disgust in her eyes.
I will never use this fork ever again. It's too dirty.
She completely lost her appetite, thinking that Sean had contaminated the rest of her breakfast.
