Chapter 316 Taking the Opportunity to Break Off the Engagement with the Sinclairs

Before Natalie could respond, Sky's voice came through the phone again. "Oh, right. Nat, Mr. Sinclair mentioned that you own Goodwill Pharmacy. Is that true?"

"Yes," Natalie admitted without hesitation.

"That's great." Sky's tone softened slightly. "I heard Goodwill Pharmacy has an ointment that works well for pain relief and swelling. Could you bring me a tube when you come back later?"

"Sure, I'll bring one tonight."

"Alright. Thanks, Nat."

"No problem, Sky."

Since he was being polite, Natalie responded in kind.

"Go ahead and get back to work. Take care of yourself," he finally said.

"Okay. Thanks, Sky. You too, take care."

After hanging up, Natalie couldn't help but notice the shift in his attitude.

Could he be using retreat as a strategy to advance?

Natalie shook her head. She didn't want to assume the worst, but since she returned to the Walkers, Sky had always sided with Emma.

For him to suddenly change like this... it was hard not to be suspicious.

Still, without actual evidence, she decided to let it go for now.

After the call ended, Natalie motioned for Zane to return the phone to Ivan. "Mr. Sinclair, please leave."

"What do you mean by leave?" Ivan's expression darkened.

He continued, "Didn't Sky tell you? Before long, our families will be joined by marriage. Wendy and Ruby were out of line, and I've already punished them for it.

"Natalie, you're the heiress of the Walkers, the eldest daughter. You should consider the bigger picture when making decisions. If rumors start spreading about a conflict between our families before the wedding even happens, it won't be good for either of us."
