Echoes Of a Forsaken Heart

Chapter 184

The woman's face was devoid of shame.

"I just wanted to see for myself," she said with a dismissive wave of her hand, "the kind of woman that our dear Ryan has been pining over for all these years."

"I just never expected Ms. Jenkins here to be such a revelation. If I hadn't had someone tail her, I might still be in the dark. Ms. Jenkins, cavorting with other men while you're supposedly with our Ryan? You do know what that makes you, right? You're nothing but a stain on his life!"

With that, she let out a cold, mocking laugh. "Did you know? Our Ryan has never dropped the ball at work, but recently, for you, he missed a crucial meeting. Ms. Jenkins, you must have some tricks up your sleeve to have kept Hamilton on the hook for three years and to have Ryan so besotted. But let me tell you, our family won't stand for someone as sullied as you!"

Natalia's face turned a ghastly shade of pale.

Being rejected by the Holzer family had been expected, but being followed was a surprise she hadn't anticipated.

She stared darkly at the woman in front of her, and after what felt like an eternity, she finally spoke.

"Whether I'm dirty or not is not for you to judge. If Ryan hadn't been clinging to me, I would have been long gone."

With that, she forced a smile at the woman.

The woman's face contorted with anger.

"Have you no shame at all?"

As she finished, the doorway was suddenly filled with noise.

A man's figure strode in.

Natalia's face changed instantly.

"What are you doing here?"

Hamilton raised an eyebrow but didn't answer her. Instead, he approached the women and greeted the older one with a smirk, "Mavis, long time no see."

At the sight of Hamilton, Mavis let out a cold huff.

"Mr. Fowler, your timing is impeccable. You can see for yourself just how shameless this woman is, so you won't be deceived by her in the future."

Hamilton just chuckled
