Chapter 26: Natalie Trending In News

Natalie was on her way to the police station when she received a call from Sean. She answered and put it on speaker, "I’ve gone through the interior project’s details, and I’ll visit the site soon. Now don’t disturb me unless it’s something really urgent."

"Are you really in the mood to talk about the project?" Sean’s amused voice came through the speaker. "Seems like you haven’t checked the news yet."

"What news?" Natalie asked, a sense of unease creeping in.

"Girl, you’re trending once more."

Natalie quickly hung up the call and pulled over to the side of the road, her heart racing. She checked the news on her mobile, and within moments, her grip on the phone tightened in anger, the veins on her arms becoming visible.

Her eyes turned icy cold as she spoke through gritted teeth, "That annoying sister of mine is asking for another beating."

Heading back to the hotel suite in his car, Justin was deep in thought. He recalled the moment when Natalie called him Aiden and how he had responded so naturally that even Natalie seemed suspicious of his reaction.

Though he had skilfully dodged her doubtful question at the time, now he found himself having his own doubts about himself.

He had reacted to being called Aiden out of instinct, the instinct that seemed to have been engraved deeply on his mind, as if it wasn’t the first time someone had called him Aiden—almost like it was his own name.

What was that feeling? What was he missing on?

As they reached the suite, Noah received a message on his phone. He checked it and was immediately shocked by what he saw.

"Mr. Harper, you should see this," Noah said, handing his cellphone to Justin, who had just settled back behind his work desk.
