Who's the Substitute Now? Chapter 599
Under the moonlight, Joshua and Natalie stood beneath the gazebo.Natalie cautiously held Joshua's arm, while the latter wore a tense expression. There seemed to be some emotional turmoil between the two, making it difficult for others to grasp their thoughts.After a moment's hesitation, Joshua finally broke the silence. "It's getting late. You should head back to the apartment."He seemed worried that his words might be too harsh and frighten Natalie, so he added, "Be good. Go back and get some good rest."Natalie quietly stole a glance at Joshua. His expression was no longer filled with anger, and the coldness surrounding him had also diminished significantly, indicating that he believed her words.She breathed a sigh of relief. She presumed Joshua had bought her explanation, which spared her from further trouble."As for my grandpa's situation, I'll think of another way. If nothing else works…" Joshua paused for a moment and continued, "Then we'll have to resort to your metho

Andrew opened the other side of the car door for Natalie. She smiled and thanked him.Andrew was startled once more and trembled uncontrollably. He wished Natalie would stop smiling as it was really giving him the creeps.…In the early morning at Sullivan Villa in Topola, Natasha was still asleep when she heard a faint commotion outside.The activity was subtle, and it was evident that whoever was making the noise was deliberately keeping it low. Despite the slight noise, it succeeded in waking her.Last night marked the first time she had laid on this bed again since leaving Sullivan Villa many years ago.The bed remained the same, as did the room, and everything in it seemed unchanged. Nevertheless, Natasha found herself tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.It was well into the early morning when Natasha finally managed to drift off to sleep. However, her rest was short-lived as she was abruptly awakened by noises from outside.Letting out a sigh of frustration, Natas

"Ms. Sullivan, feel free to choose whatever you'd like. If there's anything specific you desire, just inform me, and I'll relay your requests to Mr. Sullivan Senior. He'll ensure to meet your requests."Natasha suppressed her surprise and nodded in response.Boxes upon boxes of items continued to flood into the room without pause. Natasha remained seated in silence, watching the housekeepers as they bustled about.The wooden boxes outside appeared to stretch on indefinitely.After watching quietly for a few minutes, Natasha said, "I think we shouldn't bring anything else into this room. It's getting too crowded. Let's leave them outside for now."Natasha wondered how much stuff Austin had sent her. It seemed like the housekeepers wouldn't finish moving everything even after a whole day.The room was filled with valuable items, making Natasha feel uneasy."Understood," the head housekeeper promptly stopped, signaling the others to cease their work."Ms. Sullivan doesn't want us

Natasha was worried that Daniel wouldn't be pleased with how well Austin treated her. After all, Daniel was Austin's son.However, Daniel's reaction surprised Natasha."I didn't think your grandpa would outdo me! We both agreed not to gift anything, but he went back his word and beat me to it!" Daniel's competitive spirit seemed to flare up.Excitedly slapping his thigh, he exclaimed, "I've got a gift for you, too, to celebrate your homecoming. It'll be on its way soon!"Your grandpa's gifts are all so ordinary. I thought he might give some herbs but he sends these inferior things instead."Natasha couldn't help but smile helplessly at Daniel's enthusiasm.After leaving the Sullivans three years ago, Natasha was determined to stand on her own feet, so she founded Radiance Biomed with Zack.Zack had a talent for business, and Natasha's pharmaceuticals were of the highest quality. Soon enough, the company went public, and its drugs were being exported overseas.Following Radiance

Joshua sat on the left side of the hospital bed, with Lorelei on the right. They were both in silence.Philip lay in the bed, looking peaceful, but his sunken cheeks and weary face hinted at the seriousness of his condition.Glancing at Lorelei, Joshua noticed she had regained some composure compared to her earlier emotional state. She now looked like the poised and elegant woman he remembered.Wanting to break the awkward silence, Joshua stood up to say something to Lorelei. But before he could, Sherry walked in carrying a towel and a basin.Joshua quietly returned to his seat as Sherry began to clean Philip, who was bound to the bed day in and day out."I'll handle this," Lorelei said, getting up to take the towel from Sherry.Sherry hesitated. "Madam Lorelei, please, let me do it. I'm more accustomed to these tasks. You should rest."Lorelei shook her head and softly insisted, "With the Graysons in this condition, I can't find peace even if I try to sleep, so please, let me t

Lorelei asked, "Do you know the status of the Sullivans in Topola?"And let's not even talk about whether you can convince the miracle worker from the Sullivan family to help. You probably don't even know where Sullivan Villa is."She believed Joshua couldn't locate the Sullivan family's miracle worker."Natalie can help me."Lorelei's expression turned sour at the mention of the name. "Natalie?"She sneered, "What good can she possibly do for you? She's clueless about anything important so how could she help you find the Sullivans?"All she's good at is manipulating men with her sweet talk to satisfy them."Lorelei was convinced that Natalie was nothing more than a smooth talker, adept only at charming men. In her younger days, she had witnessed countless such manipulative tactics.Joshua remained unfazed by Lorelei's skepticism toward Natalie. Given Lorelei's disdain for Natalie, her reaction was unsurprising."Natalie is a distant relative of the Sullivans. She might be abl

Ella felt puzzled as she couldn't grasp why Joshua was unwilling to enter the apartment.Natalie was asleep inside, so Ella assumed Joshua would go inside to check on her or wake her as couples typically did.Despite her confusion, Ella refrained from asking. She knew whatever Joshua decided was the last word, and she had to comply."Mr. Grayson, please hold on outside for a moment. I'll wake Ms. Lovelace up right away," Ella said before heading toward the bedroom.Before she could take a few steps, Joshua suddenly spoke up, "Hold on."Ella turned around."Does Natalie usually wake up at this time?" Joshua asked while glancing at his watch, which indicated noon."Um… w-well…" Ella stammered.Typically, Natalie did wake up around this time unless there was something urgent. She pondered whether Natalie had mentioned her early rising habits to Joshua."Go on." Joshua's expression was neutral as he fixed his gaze on her.Ella struggled under the pressure and could only manage to

Joshua leaned against the car with a cigarette in hand. The tip of the cigarette glowed softly. He stared off into the distance, deep in thought.As Natalie approached, he stubbed out the cigarette and said, "You're here? Let's go."His words were terse. Their distant interaction mirrored that of colleagues on a business trip.Natalie pondered whether Joshua was upset. She glanced at her phone. It read 1:01 pm.Surely, he couldn't be angry just because she was a minute late? Or perhaps it was because he saw her without makeup?But Natalie felt confident in her natural appearance. While she might not be as polished without makeup, surely it wasn't enough to intimidate a man.Noticing Natalie's hesitation, Joshua spoke in a low voice, "You're not coming?"His tone carried a hint of impatience."I-I'm coming." Natalie quickly nodded.Her last bit of pretense faded away in the face of his cold gaze."Josh... I... um," Natalie began as she settled into the car, feeling the need to
