Chapter 194

Natalie stood still, deep in thought. 'When did that boy appear?"

After work, Natalie went downstairs and ran into Vance, who was waiting at the door. As they got closer, Natalie gave him a glance, and at that moment, all the hatred and disgust she felt for him exploded.

Vance saw the look of disgust in her eyes, and his heart sank. "Natalie, I..."

"Go away!" Natalie said impatiently.

Vance frowned. "You're so rude, Natalie. No wonder you can't keep Easton."

"He's just a shameless person. Why would I want to keep him? I'm not crazy." Right now, all she wanted was to stay far away from Easton. She didn't want to see him anymore.

Vance was momentarily taken aback. It was only then that he realized that Natalie had truly changed. She was no longer ne docile person she used to be.

As Natalie turned to leave, Vance quickly blocked her path. "Natalie, I'll give you some money and you leave this city, okay? Everyone says that you're just a bumpkin and that you know nothing about design. I don't want you to embarrass the Simpson family." Natalie frowned and looked at him angrily. "What did you just say? What have I done? How is it that I'm the one embarrassing the Simpson family? Isn't that you, Vance? You're the one who's vicious and selfish!"

Vance choked on her words, his face darkening. He pulled out his phone and opened up a news article. "Take a look. Everyone's saying that you don't deserve to be the design director.

"They say you slept your way into that position. You dropped out of high school, didn't you?"

Natalie froze for a moment, staring at him. She hadn't expected much from him, but hearing these words from him still made her heart ache.

Natalie looked at the article, seeing the online hate directed at her. She couldn't help but laugh bitterly. "Are you out of your

Natalie could respond, Maurice's icy voice cut through the tension. "What's wrong with being a housewife, Mr. Simpson? Are you saying her contribution is worth less than yours? Without her sacrifices, you wouldn't have got where you are." Vance had been back for days and he had
