Chapter 297 No Entry
It was a beautiful and starry night.
Natalie took a few photos of the dazzling night sky in fall with her phone. The gorgeous landscapes put
her in a good mood.
“Excuse me…”
Turning around, she was met by a young man dressed in a staff uniform. Clearly, he worked at the Weiss
residence.
“May I know if you’re Ms. Natalie Nichols?”
Narrowing her eyes, she nodded. “Yes, I am.”
Upon confirming her identity, the staff uttered, “Ms. Natalie, Mr. Collins would like you to meet him at the
rooftop. He has something to tell you.”
“Mr. Collins?”
“Mr. Christopher Collins.”
“Did he mention why?” Natalie asked further.

Natalie grinned. “No worries, I’ll be there.”
Although the zephyr ruffled her hair and blew the hem of her skirt, she maintained her composure. Her
placid appearance triggered a sense of guilt in the young man, who left after conveying the message.
She gazed at the sky and let out a sigh.
She thought that it would be nothing but tranquil when she decided not to have Samuel accompany her
to the banquet organized by the Weiss family. It turned out things did not go as she had wished.
What’s so secretive that must be said on the rooftop instead of here? If it’s not something confidential,
then it surely is a trap. It seems like there’s no escaping the inevitable.
Natalie took a deep breath, trying to suppress all irrational thoughts.
Meanwhile, the young man removed his staff uniform and reported himself to Jacyntha.
“Ms. Smith, I’ve carried out my duty and brought Natalie the message.”
“Did she suspect anything?” Jacyntha asked viciously.
“No. She agreed to the meeting at the rooftop.”
“That wild b*tch!” Gritting her teeth, Jacyntha’s expression was full of malice and hatred. “There’s
definitely something going on between her and Chris. Otherwise, why would she say yes instantly? Chris
is mine! I’ll never let her snatch him away from me.”
“Ms. Smith, what if Mr. Collins finds out what you did…”
“What do you mean?” Jacyntha bellowed as she glared at the young staff. “I’ll only reveal to Chris how
evil is that woman.”
The staff wanted to caution Jacyntha, but held back his words when he saw her being overwhelmed by
jealousy and hit the ceiling.
Ms. Smith has always had a crush on Christopher Collins. She’s crazily obsessed with him, and there’s
no turning back. Over the years, she has done many things to shoo away the women around him. He’s
probably aware of her awful conduct, but he has chosen to let them slide. I guess this time won’t be an
exception either.
The banquet hall was located on the sixth floor.
As Natalie was coming out of the elevator, she realized that the access door leading to the rooftop was
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmunlocked. It was as if it had been opened in advance to welcome her arrival.
Slowly, she pushed open the slightly rusty door, ascended the steps, and landed herself on the rooftop.
Besides the antennas and a couple of lights, it was just the plain cement floor. There was nothing special
to see on the sixth floor.
She then noticed a girl dressed in a yellow cocktail dress standing by the handrail, staring in her
direction.
Natalie gave her a once-over. It suddenly dawned on her that she had met this young lady at
Christopher’s house.
It’s Jacyntha!
Gradually, Natalie strode toward her and announced, “It’s best I tell you these things in advance. I’m not
interested in Chris.”
All I ever wanted to do is to cut off ties with Christopher, that mad man!
“What makes you think that I’ll believe you?” Jacyntha could not process anything Natalie said rationally.
She had been washed over by extreme jealousy. “Chris let you occupy his mother’s room, which he has
denied everyone access, including me. No one else can enter the room except him!”
