Just like that, the sharp pain in her head was gone, as usual.
Stanley looked down and smilingly offered, “I am not sure too. Should we do a check-up and see if we detect any abnormalities in your brain?”
Natalie thought it was a good idea and agreed to it. “Okay, but we have to schedule it for a later date. I’m pretty occupied today.”
“Sure, call me when you’re free to do so.” Stanley replied.
Natalie gave him a sheepish smile and left.
After leaving the hospital, she did not go back to the office nor the villa but went back to her own apartment instead.
The apartment was left in an abandoned state after her mom passed away. She had not been back since then, and everything was covered with a thin coat of dust. In fact, she could even smell the must in the air.
Natalie looked around the apartment and felt a sense of nostalgia.
At some point, she thought she would never move back there. The situation had changed, and it seemed imminent that she would be moving back there again.
With a long sigh, Natalie subconsciously touched her bag containing the paternity test results, looking dejected.
She took out her phone and called for a cleaning service for the apartment. It was so that she and the kids could easily move in anytime.
After arranging for the cleaning service, Natalie left for the photocopy shop around the corner to make a copy of the divorce papers.
She offered to sign a prenuptial agreement when she married Shane, as she did not want to be seen as a gold digger. Gossips like that would badly affect the kids. With that agreement in place, the divorce would be a simple affair as there would be no dispute over money and assets.
Once Shane signed on the divorce papers, she could proceed to finalize their divorce.
She placed the divorce papers in an envelope, together with the paternity test result. Then, she drove back to the villa and had planned to leave it there before heading back to the office.
However, she did not expect to see Shane and Jacqueline at the villa.
They are back together…
Shane pulled a long face and stared coldly at Natalie. “What do you mean by ‘lovey-dovey act’?” he fumed.
Natalie let out a quiet chuckle and looked him straight in the eyes. “Well, did I say anything wrong? You are inseparable now, giving everyone the impression you two are a couple. Moreover, Ms. Graham even frequented your bedroom and apartment, just like a normal girlfriend would. I was only being understanding.”
She turned to head upstairs after retorting him, leaving Shane furiously clenching his fists and teeth.
How dare she pushed me into the arms of another woman!
“Shane…” Jacqueline softly called out to him after noticing his tightly clenched fists, but he ignored her and went after Natalie.
Natalie was changing in the room when the door burst opened, and Shane came storming in.
At that, Natalie hurriedly tidied up her clothes and snapped, “Why are you here?”
“This is my room too.” Shane rebuffed.
