Chapter 367
Natalie felt like something was wrong with her.
“Nath, are you okay? Skylar handed her a bottle of water
Natalie took it. After taking a few sips, she calmed down, but her eyes were still slightly red. Skylar was
concerned when she saw Natalie’s condition
I’m fine. I just don’t know why I feel complicated. I can’t explain it.” Natalie appeared a little dazed and felt an indescribable panic.
Skylar comforted her, saying softly, “I’m here, Nath”
When Natalie heard that, she hugged Skylar. “Skye, I didn’t mean to be so fussy, but…” At that moment, she really felt like she was unfamiliar with Jeremy.
“I understand.” Skylar gently patted Natalie’s back.
Natalie suddenly received a call. She glanced at it and was stunned when she saw the caller.
“Jeremy’s calling me.”
“I’ll get out of the car and wait for you. Have a nice chat.”
After Skylar got out of the car, Natalie took a deep breath. She calmed down her complicated emotions and picked the call up. “Hello, honey.”
Jeremy’s gentle voice came from the phone. “Do you have anything else to do with Skylar? If not, I’ll come out right now. Let’s go home first. Sorry, I’ve been too busy and ignored your feelings. Let’s have a chat at home.”
Natalie’s eyes became redder as she listened to his familiar voice. “Okay.”
After hanging up, she got out of the car and said, “Sorry, Skye, I can’t eat barbecue with you. Let’s meet next time. Jeremy asked me to wait for him here.”
Skylar smiled. “Okay, then. I hope you won’t cancel our next appointment. Go back and speak with Mr. Hughes properly. Communication is a good way to solve problems. Come to me if you have any problems.
She then got into her car and prepared to leave. Since the couple had an issue in their relationship, she shouldn’t be a third wheel, there.
Before Skylar drove away, Natalie suddenly thought of something and signaled for her to stop.
Skylar lowered the window in doubt.
“Skye, can you leave later? I can ask Jeremy to introduce Joe to you. I can tell you’re interested in him. You stared at him just now.” Natalie couldn’t bear that Skylar, a beautiful woman, was still single.
Skylar chuckled. “I know him. He’s my husband. We’re very familiar with each other.”
Natalie’s mouth twitched. “Don’t joke with me. I have an inexplicable hunch that Joe also looked at you just now Maybe you’re his type
“I don’t know whether I’m his type, but he seems to like me when we’re in bed.” Seeing that Natalie still didn’t believe her, Skylar dropped a bombshell statement.
Unfortunately, no matter how powerful the statement was, Natalie still didn’t believe it. “Nah, stop kidding!
Skylar felt amused. “What should I do to make you believe in me?”
“I won’t believe it unless I catch you two in bed.” Natalie acted as if she the truth.
could see everything and knew
She believed Skylar had no way of deceiving her. She was smart enough and not easily duped.
To be blunt, if the person Skylar had mentioned had been another man, Natalie would have believed it. But she would never believe it if that man was Joe.
Skylar noticed Jeremy leaving the restaurant and told Natalie. “You’d better think about how to tell Mr. Hughes you want to go to work first.”
Natalie followed Skylar’s gaze and spotted Jeremy. She then replied, “I’ll talk to him properly. Be careful on the road. Let me know when you get home.”
