Echoes Of a Forsaken Heart

Chapter 196

Chapter 195

A makeshift sign, a fan's declaration of devotion, struck Hamilton square in the back with the weight of an unwanted gift.

Natalia gasped, her voice escaping in a mix of shock and concern, "Hamilton!"

It was only after she called out that she realized her lapse in composure.

Hamilton's brow furrowed in a flash of pain.

Then, turning to face the fan, his gaze was so icy it could have frozen the room.

The fan blanched under his cold stare.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Fowler, I-I was aiming for that home-wrecker! Our darling Eveleen has been wronged by her! Mr. Fowler, you must avenge our Eveleen!" Upon finishing, the fan's words only darkened Hamilton's expression further.

"How did you get in here?"

Security at the courthouse was tight, and fan signs were definitely not on the approved items list.

The fan's knees buckled with fear, and as tears began to flow, Hamilton's questioning gaze didn't let up.

"I just can't stand her, Hamilton! You and our Eveleen are meant to be! That woman is nothing but a mistress!" The fan's emotions escalated.

Alden hurried over with security to detain the trembling fan.

"Bro, you alright?"

Hamilton didn't respond, his eyes instead found Natalia.

"Are you hurt?"

She shook her head, "No."

Then after a brief pause added, "Thank you."

Her face remained pale.

Truth be told, ever since Eveleen unveiled that psychiatric assessment, Natalia had been somewhat distracted.

When the sign was hurled, she hadn't even thought to duck.

Hamilton's heart sank at her courteous "thank you."

Why did she have to be so formal with him?

His expression darkened, "What were you thinking? Didn't you see that coming at you?"

Alden frowned at this exchange.

Was this really the time for such words?
