Echoes Of a Forsaken Heart
Chapter 125
Chapter 125
Natalia stepped out of her apartment, snowflakes gently tumbling from the sky like delicate white feathers. But her mind was clouded with the memory of Hamilton’s darkening expression when she had let those words slip from her lips.
She knew they would upset him. Yet, she had spoken them all the same.
If their relationship was destined to fizzle out, she didn’t want to cling to a shred of false hope.
Taking a deep breath to fight back the bitterness rising in her throat, Natalia cast a final glance at the glowing windows of the apartment, mustered a wry smile, and walked away.
Inside the apartment, Hamilton remained perched on the sofa, his face as cold as if frosted
over.
Time dragged on before he let out a scornful laugh.
Being with him was just a matter of convenience for her, wasn’t it? She must’ve been counting down the days until their agreement ended.
Normally, he might have admired Natalia’s pragmatism and clarity. But now, her sensibility irked him to no end.
Was being with him such a miserable ordeal?
Yet, he didn’t hold her back.
Just as Natalia had said, he wasn’t exactly pining for her. Women were hardly scarce in his life. The concessions he had made for Natalia had already pushed his boundaries too far.
He admitted his possessiveness might be a tad excessive, but he had remained indifferent when Eveleen had stirred up a breakup, so why cling to Natalia?
Hamilton chuckled dryly, carelessly lighting up a cigarette. He truly disliked this feeling of losing control.
After all, she was just a lover–no need to get worked up. She could do as she pleased.
As long as she stayed clean, body and soul, and didn’t mess around with other men, he couldn’t care less.
Once the cigarette was finished, he changed clothes and left the apartment.
The place felt empty without her, and the desire to linger vanished.
The next day at the office, Natalia ran into Alden Fowler, who seemed to have been waiting for her.
“Ms. Jenkins, did you hear my brother nearly killed Gideon last night?” Alden approached her urgently.
Natalia’s brow furrowed in confusion. “What are you talking about?”
Alden’s face was grim. “Last night, my brother almost took Gideon’s life. He went straight for Gideon’s crotch. You didn’t know?”
Natalia’s mouth opened slightly, speechless.
Had Hamilton come back bloodied last night because of Gideon?
Her heart, which had been calm, suddenly churned with turmoil.
Alden frowned at her. “Ms. Jenkins, did my brother go after Gideon because of you?”
