Echoes Of a Forsaken Heart

Chapter 106

Hamilton’s eyes narrowed slightly, a hint of suspicion lurking in their depths. Then, a cold chuckle escaped his lips.

“Giselle told you that?” he asked, finally releasing his grip.

He bent down to light up a cigarette, taking a deep drag before turning to face Natalia with an expression of indifferent calm. “You believe her just like that?”

His demeanor remained unchanged, but the air around him seemed to thicken with an icy chill. Clearly, Natalia’s words had struck a nerve. Her lips were a tight line, betraying her effort to remain composed. She hadn’t taken Giselle’s words as gospel truth, but now that she was aware of the situation, she wasn’t about to look the other way.

“Even if it turns out to be a trap, I accept that!” Natalia stated, her gaze unwavering, showing no sign of backing down.

Hamilton’s face couldn’t have looked more displeased, and after a long, tense moment, he finally spoke again. “Natalia, do you really have to make such a fuss?”

Tears began to well up in the corners of Natalia’s eyes as she faced the man before her.

“Am I the one making a fuss? Hamilton, I just want to know the truth!”

His heavy gaze enveloped her, his face a mask of cold detachment. “And what will you do with the truth? Natalia, can you change reality?”

There was anger in Natalia’s eyes but also a hint of vulnerability. That child was his, too. She had to admit it once again. Hamilton was truly heartless.

“Hamilton, you knew from the beginning, didn’t you?”

Hamilton took another drag from his cigarette but didn’t answer her question.

He had his suspicions.

The fan’s father, despite being emotionally unstable, shouldn’t have resorted to pushing in such a situation. The police had been mediating, and the two parties had never met face to face. Shouldn’t the first reaction upon meeting be to seek a resolution?

The fact that there was pushing without even an attempt at negotiation was highly suspicious.
