Natasha's POVIn an instant, the celebrities were all ignored, and almost all media cameras turned towards me, Natasha Yael: "Mrs. Yael, can you talk about how you met Fox lawyer? Have you really divorced Jaclyn Dills? Can you reveal the reasons for the divorce?"My head began to ache; I had never experienced such a situation and had no idea how to handle it. Tommy Fox hadn't anticipated this turn of events either and could only protectively step back with me. We took a step back, but the media advanced two steps, leaving us with nowhere to hide.Suddenly, there was a commotion right in front. Jaclyn Dills unceremoniously pushed aside the media cameras, walked over with large strides, and as he extended his hand, I was pulled into his embrace. One hand encircled my waist, and the other waved away the approaching microphones, as we hurriedly walked out of the banquet hall.Tommy Fox glanced at his empty arms and couldn't help but smile bitterly.Jaclyn Dills's movements were quite agil
Tommy's POVAs I stepped out of the hotel, I spotted Catherine standing over there. Catching sight of me, Catherine approached with a charming smile. "Mr. Fox," she greeted.Though my steps paused briefly, my expression remained impassive. Without waiting for Catherine to speak, I cut in, "Miss Catherine, everything has its limits. Otherwise, the consequences are beyond what you can handle."With that said, I strode past her. Catherine's face shifted, her tone reluctant as she asked, "Mr. Fox, are you threatening me?" I turned back suddenly, my voice cold. "No, not a threat. It's a warning."Today, my mood was exceptionally poor. I had neither the time nor the patience to deal with this woman who clearly meant no harm. Some things seemed too idealistic in my mind. Even though Natash Yael and Jaclyn Dills were divorcing, tonight I was painfully aware that Jaclyn Dills hadn't let go. Her sense of entitlement, believing that everything belonged to her, had thwarted my carefully laid plan
Jaclyn's POVWhen I first got married, I knew Natasha Yael had feelings for me. Despite her affection, I chose to be distant and ignore it. I was aware that the liking might still be there, but I couldn't be sure how much. Without any external interference, I could slowly break down the walls in Luna's heart, but if Tommy Fox was lurking nearby, the situation would be dire. If one day Natasha Yael suddenly noticed Tommy Fox's qualities and shifted her feelings, it wasn't entirely impossible.I absolutely wouldn't allow such a thing to happen. Even at the slightest hint, I had to put a stop to it immediately. I thought I concealed my conflicted thoughts deeply, but Tommy Fox saw right through me, as if I were transparent.Tommy Fox suddenly felt that despite my great success in my career, I was a complete idiot when it came to love. It was strange that we cared for each other, deeply loved each other, yet insisted on hiding our emotions, making a mess of everything. This made him think
Natasha's POVI couldn't help but feel that Jaclyn Dills' recent behavior was rather peculiar. If there was any distance between us before, it seemed to be rapidly disappearing now.Almost every day, he would leave work on time and come straight over here, spending time with his father playing chess and chatting, conveniently joining us for dinner. After dinner, he always found various inexplicable excuses to stay overnight.At first, I thought this guy must have some ulterior motive. Because when he looked at me, there was a faint flicker of fire in his eyes. However, after only two nights sleeping on the living room sofa, my dad couldn't bear it and said to me, "Since the guest room is empty, why not let Jaclyn stay there first? He works so hard during the day, and it's not good to stay up late at night. Over time, it'll take a toll on his health."I didn't object at the time, but upon reflection, I realized that Jaclyn Dills had already become a part of the household. The reason I
Natasha's POV"I saw exactly what happened, I did. You rolled down from that little slope there, not even my bag stopped you, and you ended up right in the river. Thick accent and all."Only then did I take a good look at the woman beside me. She seemed to be in her forties, with short hair, wearing a floral blouse, gray pants, and carrying a military green tote bag slung over one shoulder. Plain but neat and tidy.Jaclyn Dills came over to help Daniel into the house and sit him down. The woman stood at the door and said, "My feet are dirty, your place is clean. I won't come in. You take care now, old man. I'm off." Without waiting for my response, she turned and ran off. I tried to chase after her but couldn't catch up.I came back and sat beside his father, asking, "Where did you go wandering off to? How did you manage to fall?"Daniel Yael rubbed his leg, "Getting old, you see. Legs don't listen like they used to. Went for a stroll by the river earlier, saw a couple of girls playin
Natasha's POVI knew Jaclyn Dills had a point. Looking at it practically, it was time to hire a caretaker for home. Despite my father's fluctuating career, he had spent most of his life in comfort. After being attended to for so long, reverting to simplicity would surely be uncomfortable.Moreover, with my belly growing bigger each day and my father's health not being the best, it was indeed necessary to have someone to look after us. I pondered all night, and the next day, after Jaclyn Dills had left, I discussed it with my father.Daniel Yael nodded as he listened, "I've always said, saving this bit of money won't make much difference. Though your dad doesn't have much saved up, it's still enough for this."At this point, Daniel Yael paused, then cautiously added, "Whatever you decide, Dad's on board. But I'll say this again, you need to think carefully about you and Jaclyn. This dragging on isn't doing any good. Sometimes, standing firm for the sake of unity between spouses may cau
Jaclyn's POVThe first time I laid eyes on Natash, she was hiding behind the curtains on the second floor, staring straight at me, her mouth slightly agape with a hint of innocence. The surprise and admiration on my face couldn't be concealed by any means.Somewhere along the line, the admiration in Natash's eyes began to fade, as if the brightness was slowly diminishing, leaving behind a kind of melancholy close to resignation, just as Tommy Fox described, like a melancholic little woman.I sighed softly, "Natash Yael, no matter what I've done in the past to hurt or upset you, if I've changed, can you forgive me?"My tone was filled with sincerity and humility, catching Natash Yael off guard. She turned around to find me standing behind her, our proximity almost palpable.She tilted her head slightly upward, gazing into my eyes, the depths of her gaze reflecting my image clearly. My breath brushed against her face, causing her to shiver involuntarily, quickly retreating a couple of s
Jaclyn's POVI stormed over, reaching out to grab Molly as she just stepped out of the car, and briskly walked inside. We had discussed business at my company this afternoon—a batch of priceless artworks needed to be transported to London for an exhibition. There were many intricacies involved, requiring careful communication and understanding.Molly and I were alumni, with some connections between us, and our business dealings had made us quite familiar with each other. So, even after discussing the formalities, going out for a meal seemed only natural. However, our relationship had always been straightforward and friendly. Therefore, when I suddenly grabbed her arm, Molly was taken aback.After the initial shock, she chuckled, "Jaclyn, I'm not interested in extramarital affairs. Even if you are such a devastatingly handsome man, you can't tempt me." I snorted impatiently, "Rest assured, a woman like you, even after a thousand years, I still wouldn't have any ideas. Even if you were
