Chapter 282

Natalie laughed at his shameless words. "So what if we're married? We're in the process of a divorce. I was kind enough to make you dinner, yet this is how you repay me?"

Easton's face suddenly darkened, his gaze intense as he looked at her. "Natalie, I said we will never get divorced unless I die."

"Fine. You're going to die anyway, so I'll wait until you're gone to marry again. I'm young. I've got time to wait; I'm not staying with an old man like you."

Easton frowned with a glint of cold in his eyes. She actually called him old.

And she actually wished he would die soon.

Natalie didn't notice Easton's darkened expression. She sighed with relief as she glanced down at herself and saw that her clothes were still securely in place. Easton watched her sigh with relief, feeling a pang of frustration.

He thought, 'Do I look like a beast?'

He said, "Natalie, once you get better, we'll have sex."

Natalie stepped back a bit, fear in her eyes, confused by Easton's sudden outburst. "No, please. I beg you. Go do it with Jennifer. Don't bother me.

"I remember on our wedding day you said that you could make me be Mrs. Garcia, but I wouldn't have your body and soul. So, please stick to your principles and don't compromise mine.

"I won't sleep with a man who I don't love and doesn't love me. Last night was a mistake. I was medicated and in a deep sleep, but you were fully conscious; your actions really disgusted me." After saying that, Natalie got out of bed to freshen up.

Easton took a deep breath, wondering, 'Did I really say something like that?

'I can't recall that I said that. How come she remembers it so clearly?'

He decided to skip work today. Natalie's bed was soft and inviting, making him want to stay longer, so he lay back down to get more sleep.

It might have been Natalie's unique scent that helped him fall asleep quickly.

When Natalie finished getting ready, she came out only to find Easton asleep again. Her eyes burned with anger.

Natalie was so angry she wanted to throw a pillow at him.

Then she thought better of it and went downstairs to have breakfast.

She picked up her phone from the bedside table and saw several missed calls.
