Watching Hamilton’s retreating figure, Eveleen’s face instantly descended into a frown.
Victor clicked his tongue in disapproval.
Alden chuckled lightly. “What’s the matter? Are you jealous?”
Victor laughed. “Alden, what favor on earth has that woman done for you to have you in her corner like this?”
Alden’s laughter was soft. “No favors. I just think she’s meant to be my sister–in–law, that’s all.” At those words, Eveleen’s expression turned as sour as vinegar.
“Alden, there’s no chance for your brother and Natalia. With her background, she’s hardly a match for the prestigious Fowler family.”
Alden shook his head. “Ms. Schafer, my brother’s marital affairs have never been under the Fowler family’s thumb. Otherwise, the last engagement party wouldn’t have been called off so abruptly, right?”
The mention of the last engagement made Eveleen seethe with resentment, but Alden wasn’t done stirring the pot.
“Besides, some people claim they’d never return unless my brother begged them to. So, what brings you back now?”
Eveleen was livid, unused to such treatment.
In this circle, she was always the one doted upon.
In an instant, tears welled up in her eyes. She shot Alden a glare and stood up, walking out of
the room.
After her shower, Natalia felt a wave of dizziness wash over her.
Probably caught a chill from the breeze earlier, she mused with a wry smile. Her health had truly declined since the miscarriage.
She drank a glass of hot water, preparing to lie down when her phone suddenly rang.
Hesitating for a few seconds, she answered. “Mr. Fowler.”
Hamilton grunted in acknowledgment, his silence stretching before he asked, “You went to River State?”
Through the floor–to–ceiling windows, Natalia watched the winter drizzle outside with the occasional burst of fireworks in the distance. She took a moment before replying, “Scarlett’s choice.”
“Call me when you’re back; I’ll pick you up from the airport.”

Natalia’s grip on the phone tightened. She wanted to thank him. After all, she owed him for the Incident with Gideon.
But before she could speak, she heard Eveleen’s voice over the phone. “Hamilton, they’re all against me.”
Instantly, the words she meant to say retreated back down her throat.
“No need, I can take a cab,” she said.
Hamilton seemed to scoff. “Natalia, remember our agreement isn’t over yet.”
With that, he hung up.
Natalia stared at the darkened phone screen, her feelings a tangled mess.
