“And you? Will you be waiting for me as well?” asked Shane, who never answered her question.

Natalie blushed and tilted her head down. She lied, “Nope, I won't be waiting for you. I don't care if you come home

or not.”

She hung up immediately after.

Shane stared at his phone. The screen had reverted to the home page by then. He chuckled and put his cell phone

away before calling Silas in.

“Mr. Shane,” greeted Silas as he stood in front of the desk.

Shane handed a stack of documents over and instructed, “I need you to deal with these issues. I will be heading

home earlier today.”

Silas' lips parted when he replied, “Understood.”

Huh, this is the first time Mr. Shane takes a step back and assigns me these tasks. Back then, he would act as if he

didn't know if it was his birthday or a public holiday. I knew it. It's different after one gets married and has someone

to celebrate the occasion with.

Silas shifted his gaze to the stack of documents he had with him. For the first time in his life, he wondered if he

should get a girlfriend.

On the other side, Natalie put her cell phone away after making that call.

Jacqueline's voice suddenly came from the second floor. “Ms. Smith, are you here to celebrate Shane's birthday

with him?”

Natalie frowned and tilted her head up. She looked right into Jacqueline's eyes before pointing out, “I am his wife.

Who else would he celebrate his birthday with?”

The light Jacqueline's gaze turned a little dimmer, but she was quick to put her smile back on and said, “I don't

mean it like that, Ms. Smith. It's just that... Aren't you planning on divorcing Shane? So why are you...”

“I don't want a divorce anymore. I can change my mind, can't I?” growled Natalie before she crossed her arms and

glared over. She then added, “I get to decide whether or not I want a divorce. This has nothing to do with you, so

why are you being such a busybody? Oh, I get it. You're hoping that I'd get a divorce so you can replace me. Is that

it?”

Jacqueline acted like she was hurt. She bit her lip a little and said, “Ms. Smith, how could you even think that? Isn't

that a little too harsh?”

“Is that really all in my head, though? Or is that what you were planning all along?” said Natalie as she pointed at

Jacqueline's heart and added, “We're the only ones here, so let's not play this game, shall we? I know why you're

with Jackson. You got into a relationship with him because you want Shane and I to lower our guards when you're

around, right? That way, you can hide in the dark and look for an opportunity to dump Jackson and replace me!”

Jacqueline's irises constricted. Her body instinctively trembled as she stared at Natalie in disbelief.

S-She got everything right!

Natalie knew she guessed right when she saw Jacqueline's reaction. The former grinned menacingly and dissed,

“Don't be an a*s if you don't want others to treat you like one. You can lie and hide the truth as much as you want,

but the truth will eventually be revealed. You want to replace me? Well, let me tell you something. That. Will. Never.

Happen!”

Natalie's grin became even more infuriating when she added, “You want Shane and me to get a divorce? Then I'll

make sure to do the exact opposite. I will remain married to him even if I die, and I will make it so that the thing you

want is right in front of you, but will always be out of reach. I hope it sucks to see but never have what you want.”

Natalie covered her lips and chuckled evilly.

She suddenly felt like an evil b*tch for saying those words.

That being said, Natalie knew that she couldn't be as civil as she used to be when dealing with shameless and evil

hags like Jacqueline.

I must attack mercilessly.

Jacqueline's entire body trembled with anger, and her face became distorted when she heard Natalie's words.

The former never expected Natalie to change so drastically. It's as if she turned into an entirely different person!

Did her argument with Shane change her?

Jacqueline narrowed her eyes as she considered the situation. She reminded, “I won't be so sure, Ms. Smith. Life is

unpredictable. No one knows what will happen next.”

So what if you refuse to get a divorce? He can always remarry after his wife dies. I will have my shot at being Mrs.

Thompson. All I need is for the position to be vacant.

Natalie could hear what Jacqueline was hinting at. The former's red lips parted and challenged, “Ms. Graham, what

do you mean by that? Do you plan on killing me?”

Jacqueline's eyes glowed slightly, but her smile remained bright when she replied, “That's a funny joke, Ms. Smith.

Of course I wouldn't dare to hurt you.”

“Is that so? But I think you definitely have the guts to do so. In fact, I suspect that you attempted it before,” said

Natalie as she glared over.
