Chapter 194

Hamilton stood at the threshold, a picture of confusion and distress.

He couldn't answer the question.

Even though he wanted to deny it.

But under the circumstances back then, even Natalia had spoken up, he probably wouldn't have listened.

Now, he replayed the events in his mind, trying to pinpoint when exactly it all happened.

After racking his brain, he recalled it might have been the day Eveleen showed up with a red mark on her face, claiming Natalia had slapped her.

What had he said to her again?

He seemed to remember.

Telling her to apologize to Eveleen.

Hamilton's hands, hanging at his sides, clenched tighter and tighter.

"If you had told me then..."

Natalia remained silent, and Scarlett emerged from the sidelines.

"Told you? And then what? Warn Natalia to keep her distance from Eveleen? Hamilton, have you ever considered the extent of your screw-ups?"

"You've been hovering around Natalia lately, you've disrupted her relationship with Ryan, you've been begging and sweet-talking, but have you done one substantial thing? Your precious Eveleen is still out there, probably plotting ways to hurt Natalia. Hamilton, have you ever wondered why Eveleen feels so emboldened? Because you're her accomplice, because you enable her!"

After Scarlett finished her tirade, she went over and hugged Natalia.

She was nearly heartbroken. Why should her Natalia be treated like this?

Hamilton stood frozen, unsure of how to take the next step forward.
