Chapter Thirty One.
Chapter Thirty One.Natalia wiped the tears off her face angrily as she drove down, away from Piero's residence. She wished that she could put a hold down on the tears and then let them flow freely once she got back home as she could definitely not afford for an accident to take place at such a time.It would be completely embarrassing if her tomb stone put 'crying while driving' as her cause of death. Not that that was what was important. Although Natalia did feel like her life was getting better, there were still some parts of the life that she was planning to leave behind— some parts that she felt that she had already left too, that she missed.Natalia felt that she would have melted under Piero's gaze if he had continued to look at her. For all that she knew, she was already melting, only that this time, it was starting from her lady parts, instead of her head or legs.Natalia wished that she did not have a husband to wait for, or she would have gladly allowed Piero to have taken

Chapter Thirty Two.
Chapter Thirty Two.Natalia was fuming.It was not as if she had not thought that something like that would happen, but Noah’s audacity never failed to shock the hell out of her, regardless of how often he had been shameless.Noah had sent her a text about twenty minutes ago, giving her orders like a spoilt rotten, entitled, bratty man child.-I’ll be home today, I’m about thirty minutes away. Prepare a good meal for me, and I want chicken, not beef in the stew. A hungry husband is an angry husband. Good afternoon.-“A hungry husband is an angry husband.” Natalia repeated, mocking him. In some ways, she did think that not having a child in her marriage to Noah was a great thing. She could not imagine a child having to grow up under such circumstances.Or even worse, Noah training the child to be like him.Natalia crossed her arms with a deep frown etched on to her face. She would face him head on today, no matter what. She was never one to get meals outside her home so she already had

Chapter Thirty Three.
Chapter Thirty Three.“Where is Noah?” He asked Natalia. She turned her head away.“Merely the mentioning of his name makes me want to hurl. He won’t be back until the evening. What was it that you wanted to tell me again?” Natalia did not look pleased, evening with Piero’s company.“Note that I’m not forcing you to do anything. Not for selfish reasons, at least.” Piero turned to Natalia and grabbed both her hands with both of his.“Natalia! You have to get a divorce! You have to start your life over without Noah in it, we know he is too bad for you.” Piero said with urgency in his tone.Natalia looked in Piero’s eyes for about three seconds. “Okay.” She said.“No, you don’t get it!” Piero said before blinking and looking down at her. “Okay? Okay? It was that easy?”Natalia started to laugh at him. “My God! It was so easy to convince you to do that? I didn’t even have to do much of the convincing. It’s so—” Natalia cut him in.“Calm down, Piero. I was even thinking about that before,

Chapter Thirty Four.
Chapter Thirty Four.“Do you really have to go? I can just tell everyone that you were ill and could not make it.” Wendy said as she help Natalia put on her dress.“Wendy, as I have told you many times, I have to go. I want to attend an event, I’m tired of being treated like an invalid because of my arm. Stop asking me if I really have to go, because he’s, I really have to go!” Natalia said.“Well, makes it better that it’s a masked ball anyway.” Wendy said.“Why? Is there anything wrong with my face? It’s been two weeks, most of my bruises are gone, you know?” Natalia said to Wendy.“Yes, but your arm— Noah. You know that there’s every possibility that Noah is going to show up at the party, right? Because even if they sent separate invites, they still expect you to come with Noah.” Wendy said and Natalia turned her head to look at her.“Don’t say that, Wendy. When I get to that bridge, I’d cross it. And don’t pretend like you don’t talk to Noah everyday and collect money from him bec

Chapter Thirty Five.
Chapter Thirty Five.Natalia paced around her brand new apartment. Rented, of course. She knew that everyone, with the inclusion of Piero would be shocked by how quickly she was able to get a new place of residence without anybody else’s help. The place was airy and there was a large glass screen that overlooked the city. It was good that she was able to get some contacts during her multiple trips to malls and other places.It was even better that she had sold her uselessly extravagant clothing items and accessories, and for all the cash that Noah had sent to her to buy some things for herself, which she did not get.She had refused to pick calls from anyone. Not from Wendy, Piero, or even Noah. Natalia was sure that Wendy and Noah had received the fright of their lives when they saw that someone apart from the both of them knew of the secret affair that they had had since college.And someone else had also known that Delilah was not the just daughter of a random one night stand that

Chapter Thirty Six.
Chapter Thirty Six.Piero had wanted to spend the night with Natalia because he was worried about her. Unfortunately for him, he could not as Natalia had insisted on him leaving because if the media got so much as a whiff of anything, they would leave Noah’s adultery out of it and call her a ‘whore with evil agendas’, as that was how most things worked in the world that they lived in.The news was not even making Noah’s issue so much of a big issue as they were making it for Wendy. Even before the police had seen murder plans and implicating material in Wendy’s position, most of the back slam went to Wendy and only a few recognised Noah to be just as wicked as she was. They called Wendy a husband stealer, which was true, but what about the husband that allowed himself to be taken away by a sinful woman? Why did they not whine more light on his own sins too?Natalia knew that if she was not careful and was to be seen with another man for too long, then different stories would start to

Chapter Thirty Seven.
Chapter Thirty Seven.Natalia had gone with Piero to get Delilah. The both of them had found the girl at the back of the front door, crying. She probably had been waiting for her great grandmother and then the woman didn’t show up, and that must have scared her a lot.Delilah was scared when Natalia and Piero had barged in, yelling her name. Immediately they saw her, Natalia carried her back to the car as there was no one left to take care of her anymore. As much as she hated Wendy, she loved Delilah too much to let her suffer.Delilah had been asking Natalia about her mother and great grand mother. Natalia had decided to tell her everything, since she was most probably hearing about it everywhere else and probably was not fed the actual facts.“Your mom and big granny would not be seeing you again. Big granny has died.” Natalia said bluntly and hugged the little girl.“So I won’t see big granny anymore now? Why did she die?” Delilah looked up with her big, worried eyes.“Don’t worry

Chapter Thirty Eight.
Chapter Thirty Eight.Piero had taken to staying with Natalia most of the time, into the night, but recently, he had been having a truckload of work and so he had to stay at his place. The reason for that was that Natalia would refuse to go to bed until he was done and had to go to bed too, and he did not like the idea of stressing her out due to his busy schedule, and driving through and fro everyday to see her was not an option as he still had a lot of work to do and so much could be achieved within that time. And even when he wanted to visit, Natalia had insisted that he stayed at his home to work.Natalia had been feeling strange all day. And no, it was not that she was pregnant, she had thought. But there was something in the air. Something funny, but not in a good kind of way.Natalia was not superstitious but she wanted to trust whatever it was that was in the air. She went inside to check on Delilah. She had converted one of the spare rooms into a room for Delilah so that she

Chapter Thirty Nine.
Chapter Thirty Nine.“Honestly, my dear. You must have been so scared! I came as soon as I saw the news and even the weapon in use made me feel so afraid...” Suzanne Burungdy continued to talk over and over again.“Dear, she needs some rest and you have been yapping way too much.” Her husband said I’m a bid to keep her quiet, if only for a while.“No, I’m not happily. I have always hated Wendy. But Natalia was kind and accepted that devil for the way she was. It really bothers me how the good people are often the ones who get the negativity.” Suzanne said and sat down with huff.Natalia started to laugh, causing the surprised couple to turn to her and look. “You guys and your theatrics have never failed to amuse me. I feel better by just watching you relate already.”Natalia had been hospitalized shortly after the attack which Wendy gave her. Due to the wounds that she gave herself, anyway. But at least, her outcome was much more better than the other woman’s.Wura had died instantly

Chapter Forty.
Chapter Forty.“You can easily do a whole lot of things, Natalia. I don’t see any reason for you to doubt yourself. I’ve got so many business ideas in my head and I know that you would be able to work them out successfully. Trust me.” Piero said.Natalia lay on the couch with a pout. Daniella was on the ground paying attention to the cartoon on the television.“No, baby. It’s not that I think that I would be terrible, I mean, I don’t think I’d be that good, but I hope that I won’t be terrible either, do you understand? What do you think I can do? It’s not like I’ve got a good part of Noah’s fortune with me.”Natalia shrugged.“Why do you want me to give you ideas when you’ve not even tried to think about one, my lazy sunshine?” Piero asked and Natalia slanted her eyes in his direction.Piero cleared his throat and sat up straight. “Yes, I’m sorry mama. But I think that you would do well in the fashion industry.”Natalia sat up. “The fashion industry?”Piero nodded, looking serious. “Y
