Who's the Substitute Now? Chapter 13
"It would be a major embarrassment to the Grayson family if such a shameless woman continued staying with us!" Joshua felt the anger rising inside him. He couldn't control himself from curling his fingers into a fist.He had still felt bad about divorcing Natasha at first, thinking that it must be too cruel for her. He actually thought of compensating her properly for the past three years she'd been by his side.Now, however, all he felt for her was disgust.He had to divorce this shameless woman immediately!Joshua couldn't withhold his anger anymore. He jumped to his feet at once and got into his car before starting up the engine."Josh? Where are you going?" Natalie asked, running up after him with concern in her eyes.If Natasha really was seeing other men behind his back, she wouldn't be welcome at the Graysons' house any longer. Joshua would most definitely kick Natasha out without caring about their past. In other words, the title of "Mrs. Grayson" would very soon be Nat

Joshua scoffed and entered the courthouse with long strides.Natasha was still trying to catch up with him when she was stopped by a figure that suddenly appeared before her."Lorelei?" Natasha exclaimed in surprise, recognizing the figure.Joshua heard her exclaim and turned around. When he saw his mother, he frowned even deeper than before. The look of disgust on his face turned more intense.Did Natasha invite his mother to the courthouse so she didn't have to divorce him? She should have known from the start that this would be the outcome once she saw someone else behind his back. Was she trying to keep him and her side-lover too? Was that why his mother appeared?Joshua forced himself to suppress the utter disgust in him as he politely greeted his mother. "Mom, what are you doing here?"Lorelei Madison reached out and smacked her son on the hand. "Who gave you permission to divorce Natasha?"What was Lorelei doing here? Natasha hurriedly held her back as she began throwin

Natasha looked at Joshua and said calmly, "Everything I did for you for the past three years was done out of my own volition. You don't have to guilt-trip yourself over it."Things had ended too abruptly between her and that man the last time. She hadn't been able to do anything but watch helplessly as he suffered.If only she had arrived a little earlier, things wouldn't have ended between them. She also wouldn't have felt so guilty that she gave up everything she had and married Joshua despite her family's protests.Natasha stared at Joshua's face as her mind wandered. She was lost in her memories and didn't realize that Joshua was looking at her with emotion in his eyes.Joshua stared at the deep look in Natasha's eyes. There was a conflicted look on his face.Was she really having an affair with someone else?There was no way someone could pretend to have such a deep look in their eyes. In fact, Joshua still believed that Natasha loved him. But at this moment, he wasn't too

Natasha drove back to the villa. She casually threw the keys on the shelf near the door and stormed over to the couch.For the past few days, nothing had gone as planned.Zack happened to text her just then. She tapped on the notification and saw a link to a news article about the International Drug Research and Development Center. They were looking for collaborators for their upcoming project.The text read, "The center specifically said they wanted to collaborate with you. Have you got the time for it?"Natacha raised her eyebrow and replied, "Did you tell them about my return?"Zack had let the cat out of the bag about Natasha's return just a few days after she had left Grayson Villa. She had barely caught her breath, and her divorce wasn't settled yet. She was probably going to die of exhaustion.Still, she felt an itch in her heart. She had left the drug research industry because she hadn't wanted the Grayson family to learn about her real identity. But now, the opportunit

"Tasha, I don't think I've told you this before. Before you married into our family, Joshua used to have an older brother …"Natasha stared at the old photograph in a daze. Subconsciously, she said, "So this was how he looked when he was younger."His smile was warm, sweet, and sincere.The complete opposite of Joshua.Lorelei still thought that Natasha was talking about Joshua in the photograph. She pointed at him and chuckled softly. "That's right. He used to be cold, even when he was younger. He hasn't changed at all."Then, she pointed at Jacob and said, "This is Joshua's elder brother. He excelled in his studies since he was young and was naturally gifted at everything. "His father was always so proud of him. But his attitude toward Joshua was a lot harsher."Joshua grew up in his brother's shadow. That's why he's become antisocial. It only got worse after his elder brother passed away."As Lorelei spoke, tears started welling in her eyes. She held Natasha's hand and said

Joshua sat down on Natalie's bed and slowly fed her the chicken noodle soup. Natalie was lying on the bed, looking weak and sickly.Despite that, her eyes shone brightly as she looked at Joshua. "Sorry for troubling you, Josh. You're already so busy at the company, and yet, you still found time to take care of me."The bodyguard entered just then with his head bowed. He reported, "Mr. Grayson, Madam Lorelei met with Ms. Sullivan at a café this morning. They were in there for a very long time."What the fuck was Natasha up to this time? After hearing the bodyguard's report, Natalie's thoughts became muddled. However, she didn't let any emotion show on her face."Did you hear what they were talking about?" Joshua asked casually.His face was still as cold as steel. He didn't let any emotion show on his face either as he continued feeding Natalie."The madam wouldn't let me in, so I couldn't hear anything," the bodyguard replied, feeling a little anxious. He had wanted to enter
Who's the Substitute Now? Chapter 19
The veins popped out on his forehead. He thought of calling Natasha at once, but he stopped himself in time.Natasha loved him so much that she kept using all the tricks in the book to get him to stay with her. Of course, she wouldn't reply to his text if he mentioned that it was about the divorce. She probably wanted to drag it out for as long as she could.Thinking about this, he managed to calm himself down. He then sent her another text. "I'll be at Grayson Villa."He would generously take a step back and allow her to see him for one last time before the divorce.Meanwhile, Natasha was reading a research article when she heard her phone vibrating for the second time. She stared at the five words Joshua had sent her and felt even more puzzled.What on earth was going on in that bastard's head? Hadn't he been talking about the divorce papers in his first text? What was the point of telling her he would be at the villa now? How did that have anything to do with her?Natasha di
Who's the Substitute Now? Chapter 20
Joshua had been waiting for Natasha at Grayson Villa for hours, but she hadn't shown up. In a fit of rage, he had his secretary search for Natasha's home address and then rushed over to Imperial Heights in anger.If she refused to face the reality of their divorce, then he was going to personally deliver it to her. There was no use trying to run away from it."How did you find out where I live?" Natasha asked curiously. However, she regretted asking him that question almost immediately after. Someone as powerful as Joshua could readily have any information he wanted at the snap of his fingers, especially within Oceanville.Still, wasn't he worried that Natalie would misunderstand his relationship with her if he came over to her house in the dead of night? To be honest, Natasha had had it up to here with Natalie's childish and petty antics."Give the divorce papers to her," Joshua said, handing the stack of documents to his bodyguard without even looking at Natasha."Don't you th
