Echoes Of a Forsaken Heart

Chapter 267

Natalia showed no mercy.

"I'll call Alden to look after you!"

Hamilton's face was a picture of dissatisfaction.

"Like I need his babysitting?"

Natalia gave him a sidelong glance. "Hamilton, can you promise not to lay a finger on me if I stay?"

Hamilton embraced her. "I promise."

Natalia chuckled and then pushed him out of the car.

"Your promises mean jack now!"

With that, she drove off, leaving him behind.

She needed a break, or this jerk would drive her to an early grave.

Hamilton watched her car disappear, his lips twitching slightly.

But soon, his gaze hardened again.

Actually, it was better Natalia didn't stick around, he had business to attend to tonight.

He pulled out his phone and called Alden.

"Pick me up."

When Alden arrived, they headed straight to the Fowler Mansion.

On the way, Alden couldn't help but speak up.

"I interrogated those two guys; they said Patrick sent them."

Hamilton scoffed.

"Unless Patrick's lost his mind, he wouldn't dare mess with me directly. But he's definitely involved. Send those two to the police, and get Patrick in there too!" After a pause, he added, "Keep Eveleen out of this. We don't need her worrying about Patrick's mess. It's just more trouble."

Alden frowned, as if he wanted to say something but eventually held back, only asking.

"So, if it wasn't Patrick, could it really be Orpheus?"

Hamilton remained silent.

A good beating never hurt anyone.

Either way, if that guy could get in touch with Orpheus's close aides, he must be connected somehow.

Upon reaching the Fowler Mansion, Hamilton stormed directly to Orpheus's room.
