Chapter 75: Justin and Albert’s Plan

After a while of silence, Justin asked, "What do you plan about the news of you firing all those employees?"

"I’ll respond to it soon."

"Do you need any help?"

"No."

Justin respected her decision and added, "I’ll make sure Grandma doesn’t do anything reckless."

"Tomorrow, after Grandpa’s check-up, once the doctor confirms he’s out of danger, I’ll explain everything to him. Then we can stop this act."

Justin stared at her silently, unsure how to feel—relieved or sad. It meant he wouldn’t have an excuse to come here anymore, to eat her food or sleep in her room. The thought felt strangely unacceptable. Is it wrong to hope the doctor says Albert isn’t fully recovered yet? How he wished for that.

But he could only hum in agreement.

After dinner, Justin went to shower while Natalie headed to bed. By the time he came out of the bathroom, he saw her lying with her back to him, already settled under the blankets.

Is she already asleep?

Justin turned off the lights and slid inside the blanket to sleep on the bed as well. He looked at her, who didn’t move even a bit despite him sleeping on the bed. The previous night they had a sweet fight, but tonight it all felt weird to be this calm.

Not wanting to disturb her, Justin closed his eyes, though his mind was restless. The thought that soon, he wouldn’t be lying in this same bed next to her left him feeling uneasy.

Meanwhile, Natalie, who had been pretending to sleep, slowly opened her eyes, her own mind conflicted just like Justin’s.
