“Never mind if you don't want to go to the kitchen, but I'm not eating then.” Natalie stood up as well and made to leave.

It was true that she didn't want to dine at the same table as Jacqueline, but at the same time, she also wanted to see her importance to Sean.

She wanted to know who mattered more to him, between her and Jacqueline.

If I'm more important to him, perhaps she'll have to think twice before doing anything to me. But if it's the other way round, then I'll resign myself to putting up with her moving forward. After all, this is their territory.

Of course, she hoped that it was the latter. If so, perhaps Sean wouldn't stop her if she wanted to teach Jacqueline a lesson.

“Don't go,” Sean called out to Natalie, a frown marring his countenance.

A flash of something flickered in Natalie's eyes, and she halted in her tracks. “I can stay, but you have to send her away right this instant. I don't want to see her.”

“Okay.” Sean nodded in acquiescence.

Jacqueline's expression turned grim. “Sean-”

“That's enough. Hurry up and go to the kitchen. Don't forget your place.” Sean's gaze was glacial, and he eyed her as though he was a venomous snake that would strike anytime.

Jacqueline's face contorted endlessly. Wrath and resentment stained her features, one after another.
