When Natalie arrived at Jeremy's office, she surveyed the grand and imposing CEO's office with a hint of sarcasm. She imagined countless scenes of Jeremy and Annabelle's passionate encounters taking place in this very room.
Half an hour later, Jeremy finished his meeting and learned that Natalie was in his office. He quickly returned.
Natalie turned around as Jeremy walked in and closed the door behind him. Her expression was cold as she said, "Jeremy, you never fail to shock me. No matter how ruthless your business tactics or immoral your personal affairs, you had no right to involve innocent people around me. Our issues were always just between us. But you betrayed our marriage!"
Seeing Natalie's anger, Jeremy's face tightened, and his muscles tensed. "Did you come here just for Austin?"
Natalie's eyes flashed with cold disdain. "If it weren't for this issue, I would never set foot in here again."
She pointed at the couch. "Do you know why I waited for you for half an hour without sitting down? Because I can imagine how you and Annabelle must have gone wild in this office."
Jeremy's face turned pale, and his veins bulged. "Nath, everything in the past is over."
"No, the traces remain. The affair between you and Annabelle is deeply etched in my mind. Don't you understand? No matter who you target or how you try to force me to come back home, it won't change the fact that I find you disgusting. Just looking at your office makes me feel disgusted.
"Jeremy, we can never go back. Don't mess with my friends. If anything happens to them, I'll never forgive you." Natalie pressed her red lips. Her face was flushed with rage.
Jeremy's face was ashen. His hands clenched into fists. "As long as you resign, it doesn't matter whether you come home or not."
He could only concede this much.
"Jeremy, you are so despicable. Do you know what you are taking from me? You are taking away my only passion for life," Natalie yelled, her eyes red.
"Jeremy, I just realized now that you never truly understood me. You only love yourself! Did you think I would rely on you just because I lost my job? That I could only survive by depending on you?"
Natalie was truly regretting her decisions. She deeply regretted falling in love with Jeremy and marrying him.
Jeremy's brow furrowed. "It's not as you think. Do you know that Austin likes you? I won't allow anyone to keep you close just to have you."
Upon hearing his words, Natalie gave a self-deprecating smile. "Jeremy, don't make me into a joke. Mr. Powell only looks after me as a fan. He could never have those intentions toward me.
