They had to cancel last time because Anya was critically ill, and she and Ronald had been swamped lately.
Nathan smirked slightly. "And then?"
Yulia clenched the fabric of her clothes, "The annual conference is just around the corner. I can't delay it anymore."
No more delays.
Nathan sneered, "So you're saying, you're planning to give yourself to him tonight?"
His mocking words felt like icy needles piercing her heart. It was as if her blood had stopped flowing. She felt cold all over.
The car seemed to speed up without her realizing it. The scenery outside the window was retreating faster and faster. They were about to catch up with Damon's car in front.
"Congrats, you're about to get what you want."
Yulia's eyes quivered slightly, then she also put on a sarcastic smile, "Thanks."
Thanks? Ha. How considerate.
Nathan didn't speak anymore. The atmosphere in the car became chilly.
-
"Drop me off at the office first. I'll handle things there before heading to the hotel."
"Alright." Damon agreed. Thinking of the man staying at the hotel, his brows furrowed, "Call me if anything happens."
Chloe nodded slightly, her ears twitching a bit. She glanced at the rearview mirror. Nathan's car behind them seemed to be racing wildly up the mountain road, the roar of the Aston Martin engine deafening.
She frowned, "What's up with Nathan?"
Damon also looked at the rearview mirror. Nathan's car was about to overtake them, and the honking suddenly became harsh in the quiet suburban road.
Damon's face darkened slightly. He gently steered the car to let Nathan's car pass.
"Did he have a fight with Yulia? Hurry up and follow them. Don't let anything happen."
"It's okay," Damon said indifferently, "He knows what he's doing."
Chloe watched as Nathan's car swiftly turned the corner ahead, making her heart skip a beat.
If she were in that car, she might have been okay with it. But that was Yulia. How could such a gentle and calm woman handle such a shock?
Luckily, they didn't have an accident. Nathan's car paused for a moment, then continued on. Yulia held tightly to the handle on the car roof, her face pale. "Could you...slow down a bit?"
Her other hand was clenching her clothes at her chest tightly, her voice trembling.
Nathan glanced at her, smirked coldly, "Don't worry. I've put up with you for so long. Now that we're finally getting a divorce, I wouldn't let you die at this moment. I don't want to be a widower."
He said so, but seeing Yulia scared, he gradually slowed down.
Yulia didn't want to bother with him, but she felt an insurmountable pressure in her heart. She rubbed her temples, trying to ignore the suffocation in her heart, and took a deep breath. "Nathan, do you have to insult me like this to be happy?"
"Yes." Nathan looked straight ahead, a sarcastic smile on his lips, "Should I praise your loyalty instead?"
Yulia's eyes widened. She suddenly felt her eyes dry and wanted to rub them.
She knew what he meant. She seduced him into bed, forced him to marry her, but now she was flirting with her ex-boyfriend, and might even do something with him tonight...
