Chapter 193

The heat from the hand gripping her wrist hadn't subsided.

Natalia couldn't help but notice that Hamilton's complexion had indeed worsened significantly.

"Natalia, I haven't eaten a thing all day!"

Natalia paused briefly, "Mr. Fowler, there's no shortage of people willing to accompany you for a meal."

With that, she shook off his grip and dialed a number, "Mr. Edric, let's switch up the restaurant. Alright, I'll meet you there." Chatting on the phone, Natalia strode towards the exit.

Hamilton followed with a grim expression.

"Natalia, I'm still under the weather here, don't you care even a little?"

Natalia stopped in her tracks, "If you don't take care of your own health, why expect anyone else to fret over it?"

Without looking back, she left.

Hamilton stood rooted to the spot, a mix of emotions churning within him.

Natalia was truly ruthless.

The words he once said to her, she was now throwing back at him, one by one.

Hamilton was about to follow when his phone suddenly rang.

Glancing at the screen, he answered.

"Bro, Grandpa pulled some strings and sent Orpheus away."

Hamilton's face darkened instantly.

"Who told him?"

They had kept Orpheus's troubles hidden from Westley's circle. Even those aware of his whereabouts were few.

Alden sounded equally frustrated, "With the holiday buzz, loose lips are everywhere, someone must've let something slip."

Hamilton's expression turned even more sour.

"I'm heading back now."

At the Fowler Mansion...

No sooner had Hamilton entered than Alden approached him.

"Grandpa just threw a massive fit."

Hamilton asked in a low voice, "Do you know where they sent him?"

Alden shook his head, "Once they've sent him away, they're not likely to tell us where."
