Chapter 337

Natalie caught his scrutinizing gaze and froze for a moment. Talking about work had made her forget what he had done earlier.

Her expression suddenly turned serious as she declared, "Mr. Garcia, my affairs have nothing to do with you. I won't work with you. You're nothing but a cunning old fox.

"I'll find someone I trust to collaborate with. I don't trust you, so there's no chance of us working together."

Natalie's stance was clear. The research project was already well-developed. If she hadn't spent so much time with Easton before, the product would have hit the market a year ago. Now that Chris had returned, she had decided to pick it back up. Once doubt arises, guilt is assumed. Natalie had drained all her love for Easton and now felt only disappointment and disillusionment toward him.

Easton stared at her intently, a faint smile tugging at his lips. "So, who's the person you trust the most? Maurice?"

Natalie nodded without hesitation. "Yes, I trust his character. I've worked with him for a while, and I can see he's a person of integrity."

Anger flared briefly in Easton's eyes. He thought, 'Maurice has integrity, but I don't! That's what she believes. But how does she know someone is behind Jennifer? She seems to know so much about the future.

"Natalie, have I ever told you something? I will never divorce you. Either you work with me, or no one works on this project, Easton said firmly.

His forceful, magnetic voice carried an undeniable authority, easily piercing through her defenses.

Hearing his domineering tone, Natalie was furious. "Easton, what's the point of all this? You've wanted a divorce countless times before, and I granted it. Now you don't want one? What exactly do you want?" Easton replied calmly, "Not divorcing you-that's what I want right now. Natalie, everyone makes mistakes, and I made one before. You can take your time considering the partnership. In business, I always value integrity." He stood up, his tall figure towering over Natalie. "I'm going to take a shower."

Natalie frowned, thinking, 'He's as hypocritical as he is rude. Integrity in business? Nonsense. Anyone who's dealt with his methods would find them terrifying. Why is he showering in my house? How rude!"

She glared at Easton. "This is my house. Why are you showering here? Go back to your place. How can you be so shameless? Or is your memory failing you, and you've forgotten who the woman you truly love is?" Natalie was furious at Easton's shameless behavior. He had been the one to propose the divorce, yet now that she'd he started clinging to her.
