Echoes Of a Forsaken Heart

Chapter 108

Eveleen stared at Natalia, her eyes wide with disbelief. She just couldn’t buy it. There was no way the thing between Natalia and Hamilton was just a transaction. Even if it had been in the past, it couldn’t be now.

Hamilton was taking more and more notice of Natalia, to the point where Eveleen felt she was being overshadowed. Otherwise, why would Hamilton have declared his bachelor status on social media? Why would Hamilton not punish Natalia even after she poured coffee on her?

Transactional? No way Eveleen was going to believe that!

And all those past moments between Natalia and Hamilton, which others might not be privy to, Eveleen knew all too well.

Even if it was only a transaction to Hamilton, it was clear as day that Natalia had other plans for Hamilton!

Eveleen glared at her through gritted teeth. “Do you really think I’m going to buy that story? Natalia, you better wake up from that fairy tale dream of going from rags to riches!”

Natalia let out a laugh. “Ms. Schafer, you’re about to be engaged; why bother with this talk?

Isn’t it a little beneath you?”

With another chuckle, she added, “I wish you a lifetime of happiness till death do you part, okay?”

After delivering her parting shot, Natalia turned on her heel and headed out.

Once outside, she paused, a wave of uncertainty washing over her.

Did she really not care? How could she possibly not? This was the man she had been with for three years, the man she had secretly held dear for who knows how long. How could she truly be indifferent?

All her claims of indifference were nothing but self–deception. But with Hamilton getting engaged and getting married, what could she do? She didn’t even have the right to question it.

Natalia sniffed back her emotions and pulled her thoughts together as she walked into the nearby coffee shop.

Alden spotted her and waved excitedly, but his brow furrowed as soon as he saw her face.

“Ms. Jenkins, what’s wrong?” he asked.

Natalia’s smile was forced. “Nothing.”

After a brief pause, she got straight to the point. “Alden, I need a favor.”

Alden looked at her, concerned. “Ms. Jenkins, just say it. If I can help, I will.”
