Rebirth Of Vengeance

Chapter 142

Natalie gazed at the distant horizon, her smile wild and untamed. She thought, Zoe, Jason got what he deserved. In two months, your child will be born, and I'll visit you then!

In her previous life, Jason had married Jasmine, followed by a series of events she could barely recall. But one thing was clear: Zoe had never forgiven Jason and went on to live a happy life raising her child alone. Looking at Murray, her eyes sparkled with a playful glint. "Murray, I'm heading out now."

Murray tightened his grip on the list, his gaze deep and contemplative. "Natalie, how do you know so much about these people? It's like you can predict everything before it happens."

Natalie let out a bitter chuckle, her expression tinged with sorrow. 'I was transported back to several years ago and have witnessed the lifetimes of many people-it's no surprise that I know these things, she thought. Murray's heart ached as he caught sight of her fleeting, sorrowful smile.

Natalie's voice was ethereal yet heavy. "If I could predict everything perfectly, I wouldn't have shown up tonight, knowing Jennifer had set a trap." Her gaze darkened. "If you doubt me, you don't need to work with me. I've already helped you as much as I could. Goodbye." Before she could walk away, Murray stepped forward, blocking her path. "Natalie, that's not what I meant. It's just..."

"Just what? Are you saying you think everything I know was carefully planned in advance?" Natalie smiled faintly, her eyes shimmering with unshed tears, yet they sparkled with defiant beauty.

Murray's breath caught in his throat. The dim night made her expression hard to read, but the sadness emanating from her was palpable.

He stared at her, momentarily forgetting his usual frivolous demeanor. For the first time, Murray realized that despite everything, Natalie kept him at a distance-treating him more like an acquaintance than a friend.

She thought, 'Perhaps we'll never even be friends in the end. She probably prefers someone like Jennifer anyway. In a previous life, he had indulged Jennifer extravagantly-Natalie had seen it with her own eyes.

Murray let out a wry laugh, slipping back into his usual carefree persona. "I didn't mean to doubt you, Natalie. I just hate how Jennifer keeps scheming against you. I don't know how you always see it coming, but I'm grateful you saved the Spencer family." Natalie's gaze softened as she smiled lightly, glancing toward the Wayne residence. "As long as you trust me, that's enough." She leaned closer, whispering something in Murray's ear.

His face turned grim instantly. "Is that true?" he asked, stunned.

"You'll know by tomorrow morning," Natalie replied with a mischievous smile.
