Easton knew Jennifer had deliberately told Natalie about her pregnancy to ruin their relationship.

He still hadn't discovered the man behind Jennifer, and Natalie was also investigating. It was very dangerous. So he wanted to keep Natalie close to protect her.

Easton replied, "You don't need to worry about why. Just stay home like a good girl. Divorce isn't an option for me; the only way out is widowhood. I'll give you a clear explanation later." He lowered his gaze and took a deep look at Natalie. He said, "And..."

Natalie didn't want to hear more and went upstairs.

Easton watched her retreating figure with a dark gaze. He continued, "Also, Natalie, you don't love me. If you truly did, you'd recognize me instantly, knowing who I am and who I'm not."

Natalie turned around at his words. She looked a bit confused at Easton, who was quietly staring at her. She frowned and asked, "What do you mean by that?"

Easton stayed as he was, not saying a word, just quietly looking at Natalie.

There was a hint of pain in his eyes. When Natalie looked closer, he seemed calm, as if his earlier pain never existed.

Easton didn't answer Natalie. He turned away, walked past her, and went straight upstairs to his study.

Natalie was left confused, wondering what was up with Easton. She frowned. She knew today's mess was all Jennifer's fault. She thought, 'That woman needs to face consequences before she learns her lesson.' Natalie felt a bit tired and couldn't manage to get to the office. She had to work on her design sketches from home.

She decided to go to Chris's lab to continue the research on the Al healthcare system after the New Year. As for Easton, she thought, 'I will just wait until he has had enough of me. Then hell naturally let me go!' Since she couldn't beat Easton, Natalie decided to lay low and wait for the right opportunity. She thought that since Jennifer was pregnant, her divorce from Easton should be coming soon.

Back in her room, Natalie received a message from Chris.

Chris said: [Natalie, Maris is out of danger now, don't worry.]

Natalie shook her head, thinking Easton was cruel and selfish. Unable to figure it out, she stopped thinking about it and focused on the design sketches. She was determined to make money and surpassed Easton. In the study next door, Easton stood
