Chapter 215 Testing the Waters

Natalie stood at the window for a long time, lost in thought. Her things were already packed, but she made no move to leave.

Mason waited for a while before stepping forward to get her attention. "Nat, let's go. This house isn't safe."

He glanced at the spot where Olivia had crashed her car into the house to save Natalie. The car still stood there, acting as a structural support. If the car were removed, the entire house would likely collapse.

Victor and his family had already taken all their valuables when they moved out, leaving behind anything belonging to Natalie or Grace without a second thought.

Natalie snapped out of her daze and nodded. "Alright, let's go."

Mason carried the box of photo albums while the bodyguards took the rest of the books and clothes. As they stepped outside, Victor followed closely behind.

Natalie scanned the area and then turned to Mason. "Mason, take everyone outside. I'll catch up with you soon."

"What are you going to do?" Mason asked, frowning.

"I'm going to move that car," Natalie replied, pulling out a set of keys.

The car had been left untouched after the accident. Victor and his family had not allowed anyone to claim or repair it, using it as a way to punish Olivia. Now, that decision played to Natalie's advantage.

As she climbed into the driver's seat and started the engine, Mason panicked and shouted, "Nat, get out of there!"

Ignoring him, Natalie shifted into reverse, released the brake, and stepped on the gas. With a loud roar, the car backed out of its spot.

The moment the car moved, the unstable structure gave way. With a deafening crash, the entire house collapsed in a cloud of dust and debris.

Natalie's car had reversed a safe distance before the house fell. Dust filled the air, and she waved her hand to clear it. The car's front end was damaged, but she had no plans to keep it.

"Mason, handle the cleanup for me," she said calmly as she stepped out of the car. "I have other things to take care of, so I'll be heading back now."

"Uh... sure," Mason stammered, still processing what had just happened. Though he did not fully understand Natalie's intentions, he knew better than to question her orders.

Natalie needed to return to Dithoria and did not intend to stay in Amberton any longer. She left Diana's situation in Charlotte's hands, choosing not to waste any more time on her.
