Chapter 67
Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon)
Chapter 67 After a late night dinner at the Wilsonâs residence, Theo felt a growing sense of agitation. He attempted to reach Natalie twice, but there was no response. Later, the housekeeper, Gage, discovered that Natalie was on duty that day and probably did not have her phone with her.
He was well aware of Natalieâs professional habits when attending to patients. She was known for her serious and responsible nature, and she would refrain from carrying her phone during such times. Instead, she would keep it on silent mode and place it in a drawer.
Theo requested the butler, Gage, to retrieve his antihypertensive medication.
After a while, Gage returned with the medication and a glass of warm water. He was slightly concerned as he spoke, âMr. Theo. please try not to worry too much. The younger ones have their path and blessings. You need to take care of your health and find some relaxation. The rumors about Mr. Trevon reconciling with Miss Mia may not necessarily be true. Nowadays, journalists have plenty of free time and often stir up controversies for the sake of online traffic and profits. Itâs best not to believe everything you read easily. If youâre genuinely concerned, I suggest contacting Mr. Trevon directly and asking him about the situation.â
Mr. Theo Wilson swallowed the medication, took a sip of water, and sighed resignedly. âAh, that scoundrel will eventually face the consequences of his actions. I suppose Iâm worrying over nothing. I am being overly anxious about this while he is being nonchalant.â
Gage chuckled softly and responded, âYou have a way with metaphors, Mr. Theo. Mr. Trevon values his connections with others, including your sentiments, so he entertains Miss Mia. However, it doesnât necessarily imply romantic feelings on his part.â
âThis child has a kind heart but lacks emotional perceptiveness,â Theo remarked. âIf that girl, Natalie, witnesses whatâs unfolding, it would be best if she divorces him. I wonât intervene to suppress this news on social media. Let him become a trending topic, and let Natalie see it for herself. Iâm eager to witness him desperately chasing after his wife.â
Gage couldnât help but chuckle helplessly, thinking to himself, âMr. Theoâs playful nature is still intact, deliberately trying to provoke Mr. Trevonâ
Around 11 oâclock, Natalie rose from her seat and approached the restroom. As she squatted down, she unintentionally overheard two girlsâ voices in conversation near the sink.
âHave you seen the news? It turns out that Mr. Wilson has a girlfriend. No wonder he has stayed single all these years. He was waiting for his soulmate. How romantic!â
âYeah, I saw it too. Itâs trending like crazy. It must be Mr. Wilsonâs doing. Who else would dare to promote his news like this?â
âI think so too. Itâs definitely to give Miss Mia some status.â
âAh, I envy Miss Mia. Mr. Theo adopted her, and now she is in a relationship with Mr. Wilson. She has such a different late. Itâs incredible how people can have such different lives. We are just ordinary people. Why havenât we been taken in as adopted daughters by a prestigious noble family?â
âLetâs finish washing our hands quickly and get back to work. Thereâs no use daydreaming about things that are beyond our reach. Letâs focus on our jobs and be content with what we have.â
After Natalie listened to the conversation, she could not help but feel a mix of emotions. Being unexpectedly entangled in the gossip surrounding her husban left her unsure of how to respond. She was at a crossroads, uncertain about navigating this situation and what mindset she should embrace.
Indeed, there was a hidden love affair. The speculations about the lipstick incident that night have now been confirmed.
Back then, Sherri even suspected him of being gay, but it turns out he was perfectly normal regarding his romantic inclinations.
After using the restroom and washing her hands, Natalie reached for a tissue to dry them. As she instinctively reached into her pocket to retrieve her phone, she suddenly realized she had forgotten to bring it along.
âOh well, nothing is interesting to see anyway,â Natalie silently murmured.
with a determined resolve, Natalie straightened her appearance and took a confident step forward. She remained focused on her work, as carning money through her diligent efforts was a source of fulfillment for her.
A Koenigsegg stopped at the entrance of the grand villa in Adare Manor.
Jim anxiously glanced at the man about to step out of the backseat.
wilson, thereâs an overwhelming surge of news circulating
online about you and Miss Mia. Should we take steps to suppress it?â
A heavy silence enveloped the car, and the interior grew so quiet that breathing became palpable.
After a prolonged silence, the man delicately parted his thin lips and said, âLet it be.â
Thinking he had misheard, Jim stumbled over his words, âL-Let it... let it be?â
He thought, âMr. Wilson, are you sure about this? Arenât you afraid that Mrs. Wilson will misunderstand? Youâre dancing on the edge of divorce.â
The man replied coldly and sternly, âCanât you understand what I am saying anymore? Do you need to go to Southland to learn?â
Jim hastity replied, âI understand.â Meanwhile, a thought crossed his mind, âApart from using Southland as leverage, what other cards does he hold?â
As Jim watched the departing figure of Trevon, he shook his head with a hint of helplessness.
Choosing not to return to his room, Trevon deliberately made his way to Natalieâs quarters, fully aware that she would not return for the night.
Natalieâs room retained its clean and simple appearance with a touch of coldness.
www As he gazed at the bed, memories of that night flooded his mind. He recalled how he tightly held her waist, yearning for more, craving more. The womanâs eyes were brimming with tears as she begged him, her slender waist delicately nestled in his grasp. It felt soft and fragile like a gentle squeeze could shatter its beauty. It was slim, tender, and carried a captivating allure.
Immersed in the recollection, he found himself unable to let go. Even after it had all ended, he held her waist tightly as he drifted into a peaceful slumber, a sense of fulfillment enveloping him.
This womanâs demeanor was genuinely exasperating. Beyond her captivating physical allure, her words and thoughts were distorted. She regarded him merely as a laborer.
The decision of who can share Trevon Wilsonâs bed rests solely with him.
Back then, Mia could not touch him even when she wanted to hold his hand. So, why canât Natalie understand this?
Reluctantly. Trevon returned to his master bedroom after spending time in Natalieâs room.
After breakfast the following day, Natalie skipped showering and only washed her face before crawling into bed. Despite the coral fleece duvet cover, the winter bed lacked warmth and could not comfort her chilled body.
Today, the room felt unusually warm, devoid of any hint of coldness. Natalie did not find the need to snuggle under the blankets and soon succumbed to sleep, her body enveloped in a comforting warmth.
She had always slept well and would drift into a deep slumber once she fell asleep.
Her grandfather had often remarked on the resemblance between Natalie and her mother, and the ability to fall into deep sleep seemed to be a trait passed down from her. Like her mother, Natalie was entirely consumed by it once she entered into slumber. Regardless of any noise or disturbance in her surroundings, she remained undisturbed, peacefully sleeping through it all.
Genetics was quite mysterious and difficult to comprehend or explain fully.
For instance, a child may inherit their motherâs facial features while taking after their father in terms of personality. On the other hand, there were cases where a childâs appearance and traits bore no resemblance to their parents, leading them to question if the child was adopted.
Natalie stirred from her slumber, her mind still hazy, as the soothing sound of raindrops tapping against the window greeted her at 3 p.m.
Annoyance coursed through her veins as she begrudgingly confronted the rainy day. Winter rain was particularly bothersome, with its knack for drenching her heavy coat. In stark contrast, summer showers would leave her soaked, but a sunlit motorcycle ride would swiftly evaporate every drop.
A short chime sounded, indicating a new text message.
Rubbing her tired eyes, she yawned and sluggishly straightened herself, adjusting the covers. Then, she reached for her phone to check her messages.
Furrowing her brows, she felt a slight pang in her chest as she read the message, even though she knew its content beforehand.
Her eyes swiftly scanned the message, absorbing the composition before her. It revealed a conversation between Trevon Wilson and an unidentified person, with the latter questioning if Trevon could ever be captivated by a cunning woman like herself. Trevonâs response was unequivocal: he couldnât envision being involved with someone of her nature unless he was deprived of sight.
She was acutely aware of his lack of interest in her, as he had repeatedly claimed so. However, comprehending his thoughts was one thing, and observing him openly confide in someone else without holding back was an entirely different experience, Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon)
ï¤Chapter 66 My Ex-Wife Is A Big Shot In Disguise This is sufficient evidence of how much he was genuinely annoyed with her.
Such were the complexities of human nature. Just as Natalie was caught up in her thoughts, another text message popped on her screen. It was an unfamiliar number. The identity of this mysterious woman remained elusive, but one thing was crystal clear. This woman was focused on Trevon and wanted to sow seeds of doubt and misunderstanding to push her away.
The other party had arranged to meet her in a private room on the second floor of the Loversâ Cafe.
A cold snort escaped her lips involuntarily, reflecting her cynicism. This cafe appeared to have a certain allure, serving as a common choice for significant events. Whether it was Sherriâs ill-fated blind date or this forthcoming negotiation, both instances seemed to gravitate towards the very same establishment.
She lifted the covers and pulled back the curtains, revealing a view of the rain outside. The sight of the downpour outside only exacerbated her growing irritation. As she glanced out, Natalie wondered if Sherri was awake.
Turning around, Natalie strode towards the bedside and reached for her phone to dial Sherriâs number. To her surprise, Sherri picked up promptly.
âHey, if youâre up, could you do me a favor and swing by to pick me up?â Natalie requested, Sherri was delighted by the timely phone call and replied, âSure, Iâll be there immediately. Is it something urgent? Alright, alright.â
Hearing Sherriâs response, Natalie could not help but wonder, âIs she not awake? Who is she talking to?â
When the call ended, Sherri swiftly shifted her attention to her mother, Juana, and spoke immediately. âMom,â she began, a sense of urgency evident in her voice, âI wonât be able to play cards with you today. Natalie is crying about an urgent problem she is facing now. Her grandfather had just passed on, and she is feeling isolated. I canât simply leave her in such distress.â
Upon hearing that Natalie was in tears, Jauna became concerned, and she could not help but urge Sherri to check on Natalie, âHurry up. Find out what is going on and help her if she can. If you cannot handle it, get your brother to help. Offer her some solace and support.â
After Sherri left, Juana continued to murmur, âThis child has been through a lot.â
