The car had been parked outside for quite a while. With every passing second, Natasha seemed more hesitant to open the car door.While others might have grown impatient with her, Daniel stayed calm. Sitting beside her in silence, Daniel's eyes were tender, expressing an elder's kind concern.He didn't want to add any pressure to Natasha.He respected her feelings upon returning home, understanding that emotions could be overwhelming. So, he patiently waited, giving her the space she needed.As time passed, a few helpers hurried over. They were keen to help Daniel by opening the car door and ushering them inside. But Daniel noticed their approach and subtly gestured for them to step back.Sitting in the car, Natasha focused on her breath until her heart calmed down.Getting out was a step she knew she had to take.Natasha knew she couldn't avoid returning to the Sullivan residence forever. With the inevitability of returning there looming, she decided it was time to gather her co

As Natasha walked on, she suddenly felt disoriented, as if she had lost her way.Sullivan Villa seemed to have undergone recent renovations, with many areas appearing different.The place felt both familiar and unfamiliar at the same time as Natasha wandered through the transformed landscape.She could only go with her gut and keep moving forward.Natasha ended up at the tall wall by the water, with black tiles on top and a cool wavy design at the highest part. There was no way forward.Feeling a bit awkward, Natasha scratched her head as she hesitated in front of the wall.Now, she had no choice but to wait for her uncle to catch up. Yet, despite waiting patiently, there was no sign of Daniel."Lost your way after being away for so long?" A warm voice suddenly reached her ears.Natasha turned toward the sound.In front of her stood a man in his 50s, dressed in a black silk shirt and loose trousers. Despite his age, there wasn't a single gray hair on his head.Natasha's eyes

Natalie held her wine glass, lost in thought as she watched Joshua's silhouette. She couldn't help but wonder if she should be the one to reach out and comfort him.Inside her head, two conflicting voices were at war.One of the voices whispered, "Joshua sneaked off to see Natasha this morning. That's a big deal. It means he's not only emotionally invested in her but also physically drifting away."The reason behind Joshua's dark mood is all because of Natasha, that shameless woman!"Natalie felt a knot in her throat, utterly disgusted by it all.While she could overlook Joshua's past actions for Natasha, this particular incident crossed a line. It just made her feel sick to her stomach.She felt a strong sense of injustice and had all sorts of mixed-up feelings. Most of it was because she was jealous of Natasha, but she also felt angry and disgusted.And seriously, why should she be the one constantly apologizing and bending over backward?It was pretty clear Joshua didn't giv

Natalie's mind buzzed with endless possibilities at the thought of Philip regaining his consciousness.Among all the possibilities swirling in her head, one thing was clear: Philip waking up would only spell trouble for her.Natalie's gaze was fixed on the phone screen. She clenched her fists tightly as she struggled to calm herself down.She was torn. Should she answer this call for Joshua?She couldn't make a decision. She was genuinely afraid of answering the phone and hearing Philip's voice—it would terrify her.Natalie clenched and relaxed her hands in a constant cycle of uncertainty. Hovering her hand over the phone, she hesitated to answer the call.She couldn't tell how long the phone had been ringing, but eventually, it stopped.Natalie's fingers finally relaxed, and she leaned over, taking deep breaths.She slowly walked over to the phone and held it in her hand.The moment she got hold of the phone, her mind began to wander. She found herself tempted to unlock it an

If Joshua's password was really Natasha's birthday, Natalie felt like she would go crazy. She would go completely crazy.Her hand holding the phone trembled. She forcefully calmed herself down and tried to enter Natasha's birthday.As she typed in the password, she suddenly stopped halfway.She realized she didn't even know Natasha's birthday. In fact, she didn't know anything about Natasha.The only thing she knew about Natasha was that she was an orphan abandoned by her mother and also loved to steal other women's men.Natalie couldn't help reflecting on herself. She knew too little about Natasha.There was a saying that knowing yourself and the enemy would allow you to be victorious. Shouldn't she take the initiative to carefully investigate Natasha?With this thought, Natalie squinted, realizing she had underestimated Natasha.Just as she was deep in thought, the phone rang again.Natalie stared at the screen. It was still the same familiar name and familiar ringtone. It a

"Josh, it's Grandpa! Do you think he's awake?"Seeing Joshua approaching her, Natalie quickly put on a surprised and happy expression, as if eager to know Philip would be fine.Joshua couldn't bother to reply to Natalie. He was too excited. He grabbed the phone and answered the call immediately.Once he placed the phone to his ear, a long and quick conversation started.However, the call was not in speaker mode, so even if Natalie pricked up her ears, she couldn't hear what the caller was saying.She was very anxious, desperate to know what Philip was saying. This was a matter of life and death for her.Natalie gritted her teeth nervously and paced around Joshua, trying to eavesdrop on their conversation.However, Joshua wasn't as excited as she expected him to be. Instead, he was frowning, and the black pupils in his eyes seemed as cold as a frozen lake.Natalie was suddenly puzzled.Something was wrong. If Philip was awake, shouldn't Joshua be happy? Why was he frowning like

Joshua's expression became extremely sullen. When he heard those words, his eyebrows furrowed tightly, and his face became exceedingly gloomy.Natalie naturally noticed the change in his expression, but she persisted in picking at Joshua's emotional wounds as if disregarding his grim demeanor."Josh, what should we do now? If you hadn't left, Grandpa would definitely have been saved. What else did the doctor say? Does Grandpa still have a chance to survive?"If he really doesn't have a chance anymore…" Natalie paused abruptly, then continued, "No, no. He will still have a chance. Grandpa is such a good person. God will not treat him poorly."Natalie talked non-stop, making Joshua more and more depressed."Josh, I originally wanted to help you look for the Sullivan family's miracle worker. In fact, I tried to look for him, but I'm someone without any influence."The Sullivan family's miracle worker… he didn't even bother to respond to me."Although her words didn't mention Joshua

"If you feel upset, let me drive. I can do it," Natalie said.While speaking, Natalie immediately lowered her head, trying to release her seatbelt, intending to switch places with Joshua.She didn't expect her words to make him even more frustrated.He turned to her, his eyes clear, cold, and intimidating."Can you keep quiet for a moment?" he said.His gaze was terrifying. Natalie felt scared but bit her lips and feigned calmness.She feigned a confused expression as if she didn't understand why he would be so angry and nodded quickly.She muttered, "Josh, I'm sorry… I will stop talking. Please don't be angry at me."Joshua remained silent in response to her apology. He rested one hand on the steering wheel and the other on the window, appearing incredibly annoyed.He even suddenly had the urge to light another cigarette to ease his tension. But he endured it.His gaze remained fixed ahead like he was an eagle, enveloping the car in a stifling situation.Natalie sat quietly
