ometimes, Natalie was truly in awe of Abigail\u2019s skills, especially when it came to twisting the\u00a0<\/p>\n
truth.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Natalie found Abigail\u2019s words ridiculous, yet Jeffrey ate them all up.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Abigail was right. Why hadn\u2019t Natalie stopped the fight sooner? It wasn\u2019t until Stephen was at\u00a0<\/p>\n
a disadvantage that she stepped in to help.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou siblings sure work together well!\u201d Jeffrey gently swiped his thumb across the wound on his lip, his head bowed. In the next second, he raised his gaze, revealing the dark look in his eyes. \u201cYou almost had me fooled!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Natalie opened her mouth to explain, yet the words died in her throat before she could speak\u00a0<\/p>\n
them as a sense of helplessness welled in her. It seemed like she was not only unloved but also\u00a0<\/p>\n
distrusted.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She had tried to grab Stephen the moment she saw him charging toward Jeffrey, yet she had failed. Besides, how was she supposed to step in when the two men were tangled together? She was just one woman! She certainly didn\u2019t have the strength to separate two grown men herself.\u00a0<\/p>\n
That was not even considering the fact that she was pregnant. What if they accidentally hurt\u00a0<\/p>\n
her? She couldn\u2019t take that risk!\u00a0<\/p>\n
Unexpectedly, this had become the perfect ammo for Abigail to use against her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cFine, I\u2019m biased.\u201d At this point, Natalie couldn\u2019t be bothered to prove her innocence anymore. After all, it was completely pointless. Instead, she retorted, \u201cThen let me ask you one thing as well, Abigail. Why didn\u2019t you come forward to stop the fight? You were present\u00a0<\/p>\n
too!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen Stephen yanked Jeff away earlier, I fell as well\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Abigail showed her palms, which were scraped and bleeding. Some dirt and dust were still clinging to the wounds.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In a choked voice, she went on, \u201cI wanted to break up the fight too! It\u2019s just that\u2026 I fell so hard just now that I couldn\u2019t even stand for a moment. Even now, my hands are still numb.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her pitiful, frail act had Natalie itching to land several hard slaps across her cheeks. How was it possible that such a pretentious and shameless woman existed in this world?\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the ensuing silence, Stephen finally recovered from his near\u2013death experience. Swiping a hand over his face, he stood up. \u201cIt seems I accidentally left you out earlier, Abigail. I should\u2019ve gone after you first before beating up Jeffrey! The cheating bastard and the\u00a0<\/p>\n
Chapter 98\u00a0<\/p>\n
shameless mistress\u2013neither of you shall escape my wrath!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
A murderous look flashed in Jeffrey\u2019s eyes as he tensed, ready to step forward.\u00a0<\/p>\n
2\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n
After being married for five years, Natalie understood him well enough to know what he was planning to do. She immediately moved to stand protectively in front of Stephen.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t be afraid! Why are you scared of him? You wanna fight? Bring it on! Let\u2019s see who emerges victorious!\u201d Stephen yelled. The influence of alcohol had all the modicum of rationality flying out the window for him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He went on, \u201cYou haven\u2019t even divorced yet, but you\u2019re already being affectionate with another woman in public! Don\u2019t you know how to be a little more discreet? You\u2019re dying to let the whole world know, huh? Listen up, Jeffrey Foster! I\u2019m going to beat you up every time I see you! Even if you marry Abigail in the future, you\u2019d better stay far away from Nat and me, got it?\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI used to think Nat was a fool, but now, I realize I was the fool all along! How could she possibly live a good, happy life with a man like you? Only by leaving you can she truly live a good life! Just you wait for regret to crush you!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Jeffrey\u2019s lips were pursed tightly. \u201cBeing affectionate with another woman?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
What was Stephen even going on about? Abigail said she wanted to have dinner together, so Jeffrey went to the hospital to pick her up after finishing his work at Foster Group. After that, they went to Lux Bistro.\u00a0<\/p>\n
After finishing their meal, they left the restaurant together. Abigail wanted to feed him some cake, but before he could accept a bite, his phone rang.\u00a0<\/p>\n
At first, Abigail had been quietly waiting for him to finish his call. However, she suddenly started leaning closer. Puzzled by her action, he had just been about to ask her when Stephen abruptly charged over.\u00a0<\/p>\n
