Chapter 280 Aunt is Angry!

Back at Lotus Villa, Heather had prepared a highly nutritious soup for Natalie.

Despite feeling nauseous at the thought of drinking it, Natalie forced herself to do so, not wanting to disappoint her concerned aunt.

Since returning to her aunt’s care, she had grown tired of almost everything she used to enjoy eating. That was because she ate so much of it.

She couldn’t let Heather know what she liked; if she did, Heather would make her eat it all the time, even if she didn’t want to..

“How is it?” Heather asked.

“Very tasty!” Natalie replied, her conscience aching at the dishonesty.

Heather visibly brightened at Natalie’s words. “If you like it, that’s great. This soup is good for your complexion. Since you’ve returned, your skin has improved quite a bit.”

“Well, if it weren’t good, you would have worked in vain, right, Aunt?

“Oh, you and your sweet words.” Heather chuckled.

At home, Natalie didn’t wear her glasses because the lighting was gentle and didn’t strain her eyes. After dinner, Stephen had yet to return.

Natalie said, “Uncle seems very busy lately.”

“He is. Don’t worry about him,” Heather replied, seemingly accustomed to Stephen’s busy

schedule.

Natalie refrained from asking further questions.

The recent events in Simeria had left her feeling overwhelmed and confused.

“Getting his approval isn’t easy,” Isabella responded with a less–than–friendly tone.
