Natalie saw Marcus Ward attacking Terence and rushed downstairs. When she got there, she saw the confused look on Terence's face. He had already gotten Angela pregnant, so what was he still doing here?
When Terence saw Natalie approaching, he hurried toward her.
"Natalie, please listen to me. It's all been a misunderstanding."
Hearing this, Marcus Ward immediately kicked Terence.
"A misunderstanding? She's pregnant, and you call it a misunderstanding? I'm warning you, if you don't get the hell out of here, I'll beat you to death."
With that, Marcus Ward started wailing on Terence. He'd been bottling up his anger for a while and wanted to teach Terence a harsh lesson.
Terence didn't fight back, simply letting Marcus Ward hit him.
Natalie watched, her heart clenching, as a smear of crimson bloomed at the corner of Terence’s mouth. "Let it go," she said. "I don't know what he wants here, but it's over between us. If he likes standing here, let him. He can stay there and rot for all I care. He’s nothing more than a stray dog at our gate now."
Terence's brow tightened. Is that really how she saw him?
Marcus Ward pointed at Terence. "That's right. If you like standing here, then stand here. You can be the Ward family's watchdog. Natalie, let's go."
Marcus pulled Natalie toward the entrance, but Terence grabbed her hand. "Natalie, don't go. Please let me explain."
Natalie forcefully shook off his hand. "I don't need any explanation. You should go home and take care of the pregnant woman in your life."
Pregnant woman in his life? What pregnant woman?
"The baby in Angela's belly really has nothing to do with me. I honestly don't know whose child it is."
Marcus pushed Terence away. "Typical lowlife excuses! Get your damn hands off her. We don't care if you don't know whose kid it is. Just take care of your own child. Goodbye."
