Chapter 211

Hamilton let out a snort, his eyes glinting with a frost that seemed to spread endlessly.

Was this all a scheme to drive a wedge between him and Natalia?

Alden frowned, "Bro, this has got to be a setup."

Hamilton didn't respond, but his gaze shifted to the firmly shut hospital room door.

Alden was about to say more when Hamilton walked away, leaving behind a command. "Knock on the door, bring her out."

Begrudgingly, Alden went and knocked on the door.

Natalia, surprised to see Alden, hesitated.

"Alden? What are you doing here?"

Alden's expression was grim. "Natalia, can you come out for a sec? We need to talk."

Initially, Natalia wanted to refuse, but she could tell something was off from Alden's demeanor.

She nodded slightly, about to close the door, when Alden added, "And bring Scarlett along." At that, Natalia paused, a bad feeling suddenly washing over her, "Is something wrong?" Alden nodded, "Yeah, but don't panic. Let's talk it over."

Natalia agreed and called for Scarlett.

The trio then headed to a nearby cafe.

Upon entering, Natalia immediately spotted Hamilton, a shadow of gloom on his face. She halted in her tracks.

"Natalia, it's serious this time, I'm not messing around," Alden quickly explained, seeing her reaction.

After a moment, Natalia approached.

"Spill it. What's up?"

Alden relayed the story.

Scarlett's face turned stormy, anger rising swiftly.

"What the hell? Me, paying someone off to take out Eveleen? As if I'd waste my money on that trash. Why would I even bother? Letting her rot in an asylum seems a much sweeter revenge." Alden's eyebrows shot up.

Natalia's lips tightened, her gaze shifting to Hamilton.
