Chapter 174

The moment Natalie recognized Easton, his bloodshot eyes sent chills through her. It took her back to the day he pushed her down the stairs, looking at her just like he was now, yelling, "Natalie, just die already! Look what a mess you are now! Natalie's body trembled uncontrollably. She pushed Easton away with all her strength and rasped, "What do you want? Don't

touch me.

Easton took two steps back but didn't miss the fear and glaring hatred in her eyes.

"Natalie, I need to ask you something. Was it you who saved me that day in the fire?" Easton's voice was raspy, his gaze locked onto her.

Natalie froze. She said to herself, 'Did he forget who saved him? After everything, Easton's ruthlessness is something I've experienced twice over. It is painfully clear he has no feelings.

'Back then, he wasn't completely unconscious. How could he not remember? Jennifer has saved him too, and while he always remembers Jennifer's heroics, he has no idea I've been there for him as well

Jennifer's life-saving kindness and their childhood bond drove Easton to help Jennifer obsessively. But Natalie didn't need that; she was determined to fight them both on her own terms.

She shook her head firmly. "It wasn't me."

She didn't want to get caught up with him again, especially not over a debt of gratitude. In this lifetime, she wanted no ties to this man. But why is he asking about this now? He's never brought it up before, she wondered.

Easton watched her shake her head, taking in her flawless, porcelain skin, her captivating eyes, and those striking red lips- she was stunning, Jennifer's delicate beauty paled in comparison

Easton chuckled bitterly, "So, to divorce me, you're denying that you saved my life?"

Natalie pressed her lips together, refusing to speak. She had been disappointed enough; she wouldn't hold on to any hope.
