Chapter 339

Natalie eyed him skeptically. She had slept deeply last night and had no recollection of anything.

After thinking for a moment, she asked, "How exactly did you get in last night? I asked you yesterday, and you didn't answer

me."

Easton smiled. Standing under the light, he appeared even more dignified. His voice was deep and magnetic as he replied, "I climbed over the wall. Look, my hands and arms are all scraped up. After I showered last night, the wounds seemed to get infected."

İç extended his arm, showing her his hand, which bore scratches. The wounds, soaked in water, were now oozing a yellowish liquid.

Natalie understood the pain. Even the slightest breeze could make it sting.

She sneered, "There were so many times you pushed me down, and my palms ended up like this-burning with pain. Serves you right."

As she walked out the door, she added, "Thanks for letting me know. Once the snow stops, I'll have the butler install barbed wire on the walls. Let's see how you manage to climb in next time." Easton glanced at the scrapes on his hand and thought back to the times he'd pushed Natalie down to protect Jennifer. He hadn't bothered to check if Natalie was hurt and had walked away. At that time, he had just taken over the company and was dedicating most of his time to it, leaving him little opportunity to pay attention to her.

But last night, he really had climbed over the wall, and the scrapes on his hands came from that. To avoid her suspecting that he knew the code, he had no choice but to resort to such measures.

Only now did he realize how painful scraped palms could be. He felt guilty and didn't even try to argue. "Let's go down and have breakfast," he said.

Natalie frowned at him, her frustration giving way to sarcasm. "Easton, this is my house, not yours. And we're getting divorced. Can you respect some boundaries? Your relationship with Jennifer is always murky. Are you implying that our situation is the same?" Easton raised an eyebrow, smiling. "We are legally married. How could our relationship be murky?"

Natalie was momentarily at a loss for words, forgetting that they weren't officially divorced yet.
