Chapter 491
“You’ve wrongly accused Mr. Hughes. He came to see me for work. We’re not having an affair. Mr. Hughes really loves you. Please don’t misunderstand him,” Annabelle interjected.
With how she was finding excuses for Jeremy, she was a far cry from the braggart of the mistress she was last night.
Jeremy must’ve adored such an understanding mistress. Why else would he have gotten her pregnant?
Natalie laughed coldly. She found Jeremy just as revolting as Annabelle. She shrieked, “Do you think I’m an idiot? Jeremy, I want a divorce. The both of you won’t need to sneak around anymore. You can be together with each other under the sun. I’m not worthy enough to be Mrs. Hughes!”
Jeremy’s expression changed drastically when she said that.
Annabelle was initially dumbfounded. Then, glee enveloped her. She hadn’t expected things to go so smoothly. Was Natalie going to divorce Jeremy just like that?
She immediately turned to glance at Jeremy. Instantly, she felt as though she’d gotten punched in the chest. An unexplainable terror engulfed her.
Annabelle could see his pale face. Fury seemed to bail within him. It was a testament to how much he cared about Natalie.
“Nath, you should go home first. I will provide a reasonable explanation for all this,” Jeremy said, reaching out a hand to embrace Natalie.

Then, she turned back to Skylar and said, “Skye, let’s go.”
She’d said what needed to be said, and now Natalie wanted to go home and prepare her divorce agreement. She had to divorce Jeremy as soon as possible.
She couldn’t stand the thought of Jeremy sleeping with other women, and Natalie was terrified she would go crazy if she stayed.
Skylar put an arm around Natalie’s shoulders. As they left, she glared at Annabelle.
Annabelle hadn’t expected that Natalie had brought Skylar with her. Jipsburg was too small.
In addition, why did Skylar’s gaze pierce through her? It was as though she’d gleaned all her secrets. Goosebumps rose all over Annabelle at the thought.
*Skylar, help me console her. I will handle this, Jeremy told Skylar.
She stared back at Jeremy emotionlessly. Then, she stated, “Nath is my best friend. Of course I’ll stay by
