Chapter 6


    The man sat in bed, his hawk-like eyes still on Natalie. Natalie hadn’t expected for the man to exude


    such a dangerous aura from the moment he woke up from hisa. Back then, she had decided to


    treat Casper, but had never thought that the man would show such hostility toward her after regaining


    consciousness. It was at this moment she thought of the man as a sleeping lion. Now that the lion had


    woken up, she would always be in danger from the lion. Furthermore, it was obvious to see that he did


    not approve of the marriage. Looks like I’ll be leaving this family soon, she thought. “Why are you still


    here?” Natalie then grunted before she left the room. Although this was the first time the two had


    officially met, Casper already had his heart dead set on someone else. As for who that someone else


    was, Natalie was none the wiser. She only knew that Casper felt animosity toward her. Slightly


    confused with the current development, she moved into one of the guest rooms. On this night, she


    received dozens of calls from Justin and Logan, but she didn’t answer any of them, as she knew the


    reason for their calls. Instead, she cklisted their numbers and went to sleep. … The next morning,


    Natalie woke up and went downstairs to find Casper in the middle of his breakfast. After what


    happenedst night, she was slightly afraid of the man. Mrs. Jenkins came over and nudged Natalie as


    she assured her. “Mrs. Langston, Mr. Langston is waiting for you to have breakfast together. Don’t


    worry. Although he looks fierce, he’s actually a really good man. He won’t give you a hard time.” Then,


    Natalie took a nce at the dining hall. Although Casper was seated in a wheelchair, his appearance


    was still graceful and dignified. Anyone would mistake the man for a prince from some fairy tale at a


    single nce. Since Natalie had been massaging him all this while, his bodily functions were all normal


    with the exception of his legs. But, I doubt he’s nning to have a meal with me, right? she thought to


    herself. “Mr. Langston, we’ve found him! We’ve found Professor Wright! He agreed to treat your legs!


    Since his flight here is in the afternoon, he will be able to start the treatment as soon as tonight! You’ll


    be able to stand in no time!” A delighted voice came from behind Natalie. Immediately after that, a man


    in a ck suit entered. Although Casper had woken up from hisa, he had suffered grave injuries


    on his legs, which was why he still couldn’t use his legs. Judging by what she heard, Natalie assumed


    that the family had found a doctor to treat his legs. She then cast a nce at his legs. With their current


    rtionship, the man would never believe that she was the one who had treated him. Whatever, it’s


    better toy low now, she thought without the slightest intention to exin herself. When the man in a


    ck suit saw Natalie, he stopped in his tracks and smiled. “Hello, Mrs. Langston. It’s nice meeting


    you. My name is Tyler Hargreeves. I’m Mr. Langston’s special assistant. Please don’t hesitate to ask for


    me if you require my assistance in the future.” As soon as he finished introducing himself, he could feel


    a gloomy gaze on him. Then he immediately hurried over to Casper. Natalie unknowingly had her gaze


    follow Tyler as he went over to Casper. Coincidentally, she then made eye contact with Casper when


    her eyes drifted to the man. Since they had made eye contact with one another, she had no other


    choice but to brace herself and walk over to him. Throughout Tyler’s report, Casper remained silent


    and only took sips of his coffee. Natalie picked a seat that was farthest away from Casper and sat


    down, after which Mrs. Jenkins served her breakfast. However, she had no appetite as she was under


    the watchful gaze of Casper. Once Tyler was done with his report, he left after receiving a few


    instructions from Casper. Following Tyler’s departure, the room instantly turned cold in the atmosphere.


    With his deep ck eyes, Casper continued to look at Natalie and said casually, “How much? Name


    your price.” Taken aback, Natalie replied, “H-Huh?” “Divorce,” Casper said in an eerily cold tone. From


    how Casper actedst night, Natalie was not surprised, as she had already seen thising. “Oh, right

    now?” “In two days. Prepare your documents and wait for my instructions.” Since Ethel was currently


    unconscious after she faintedst night, he wanted to wait for her condition to be stable before


    proceeding with the divorce. Natalie nodded. “Ok, I’ll wait.” After that, she simply took a few bites of her


    breakfast before she went back to her room to grab her bag. When she came back down, she was


    startled when she saw Henry kneeling at Casper’s feet with a bruised nose and a swollen face. With


    his slightly pale lips forming into a smile, Casper said coldly, “Are you disappointed that I’m not dead,


    Henry?” “Casper, I was wrong. I’m just a senile old man. I know now that I should not have gone after


    your position. I won’t do this a second time. Casper, please spare me… Aaaahhh!”
