Chapter 30\u00a0<\/p>\n
Imogen had wanted Rowan and Natalie to finalize their divorce earlier, but she also understood the importance of the contract signing ceremony. She had planned to take care of it after the ceremony, never expecting Natalie to cause a fuss in front of John.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll say this one last time,\u201d Rowan hissed. \u201cI don\u2019t care how urgent this is; you have to wait until this event is over.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDo you want me to bring up our divorce in front of Mr. Morris?\u201d asked Natalie, not feeling threatened at all.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAre you trying to threaten me? I\u2019m not someone you can threaten so easily.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cTry me.\u201d Natalie wouldn\u2019t back down until she got what belonged to her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
At Rowan\u2019s signal, the bodyguards moved in to detain her and Jasper in the lounge.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She saw through him instantly. \u201cDid you think we\u2019re on our own? My friend is giving Mr. Morris\u2019s children swimming\u00a0<\/p>\n
lessons now. Mrs. Morris is there too.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIf I don\u2019t update my friend by 10:00 am, Mrs. Morris will tell Mr. Morris to go home. I\u2019d like to see how you\u2019ll manage to sign the contract then.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Enraged, Rowan grabbed Natalie by her neck. \u201cBitch, how dare you set me up? You evil woman, can you possibly sink any lower?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Natalie struggled with all her might, landing a hard slap on Rowan\u2019s face. For a moment, Rowan was stunned. He never expected her to hit him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2026\u201d When Rowan finally came to his senses, a murderous look filled his gaze.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIf something happens to me, I\u2019m going to drag you down with me. I\u2019ve told all the paparazzi to publish my divorce from you if they don\u2019t hear from me by 10:00 am. It\u2019ll definitely dominate the headlines,\u201d said Natalie as she took a step back to prevent herself from getting hit.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Nothing will come out of the two of them arguing like that. Thus, Rowan forced himself to calm down. He took a seat, determined to discuss matters with Natalie and Jasper.\u00a0<\/p>\n
However, Natalie demanded a divorce settlement of 100 million dollars, plus the villa in the southern district. That was a total of at least 160 million. On top of that, she wanted custody of the kids.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Rowan slammed the divorce papers on the table. \u201cHave you lost your mind? What makes you think I\u2019ll give you whatever amount you ask for? Last time, you asked for just 50 million.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t give her a single cent.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The voice came from outside. The lounge door flew open as Scarlet walked in, with Imogen close behind her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Imogen had called Scarlet, hoping she would stop Natalie. That way, Imogen and Rowan could proceed with the contract signing ceremony.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou scheming fox!\u201d Scarlet spat. \u201cBack then, you begged Rowan\u2019s grandmother to force him to marry you. You even drugged his food just to get into his bed. That was how you were able to conceive the kids.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019ve lived in our house for seven years with everything provided for you. We even paid for your stupid mother\u2019s hospital bills every month.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She no longer held herself back and said, \u201cAnd now, you\u2019re asking for a large sum of money, the villa, and custody of the kids? What a perfect dream you have!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNatalie, you\u2019re really too much. 100 million is a ridiculous amount. Are you trying to scam Rowan?\u201d Imogen asked, her voice\u00a0<\/p>\n
soft.\u00a0<\/p>\n
