Love’s Second Act by Alvis Midden -
Chapter 27
Chapter 27
Rebecca was sitting on the big couch, while Natalie was sitting on the small couch next to Rebecca. Under such a comparison, Rebecca still looked like a queen mother.
Rebecca thought she could still boss Natalie around as before. Yet, now Natalie was sitting on the couch with a mini pig in her arms, which was infuriating to Rebecca.
Zoey, pour me some coffee.
“Yes, Mrs. Rebecca Jeffords Zoey was also stunned because it was always Natalie who had been doing such things before.
And in the past, if someone helped Natalie do such a thing, Rebecca would definitely lose her temper.
After a long time, everyone thought it was Natalie’s job, and no one took the initiative to do this.
But now it was different.
Natalie sat on the couch like a prominent young lady, leisurely holding her mini pig in her arms.
Seeing that Natalie didn’t take her seriously at all, Rebecca called Calvin directly in front of Natalie and said, “Come back right now.”
“Are you at Autumnhall Residence?” asked Calvin.
“Yes!” If he still didn’t come back. Rebecca would be completely pissed off by Natalie.
Calvin, on the other end of the phone, was stunned for a moment before saying. Ill ask the driver to send you back to the Jeffords manor!”
“Calvin!” Rebecca still wanted to yell something, but the phone had been hung up.
Rebecca’s face turned livid. Now she had only one idea, which was to let Calvin immediately divorce Natalie. Rebecca couldn’t bear having such a daughter-in-law even for a moment
In contrast, Natalie looked like an outsider from beginning to end compared to Rebecca. It was as if Natalie had nothing to do with this family.
A buzzing sound was heard. The phone rang. Natalie didn’t avoid Rebecca and answered, “Hello.”
“Nat. Xavier’s worried voice resounded over the phone.
Natalie’s phone was put in speaker mode, and it was loud.
Rebecca was already angry. Now, when she heard a man addressing Natalie so intimately, her face turned red with anger.
Rebecca was so angry that she couldn’t hear a single word of what was being said to Natalie on the other end of the phone
However, Rebecca could sense how gentle N Natalie was when she said, “Well, I can do it. Don’t worry. I’ll see if I’ll go back after settling everything here.”
Hearing that, Rebecca thought, “Go back? She still wants to go back to her lover?”
Thinking of the previous news and public opinion, Rebecca was furious.
Seeing that Rebecca was about to jump up and sold her, Natale hung up the phone. Sure enough, Rebecca couldn’t wait for a moment and began reprimanding Natalie “Natalie, how can you be so shameless?”
Natalie remained silent.

“Even if you cheated on Calvin, you have to find someone better than Calvin! That man could be your father! How could you be so shameless Rebecca continued.
Faced with Rebecca’s insults, Natalie said in a frivolous tone, I did it on purpose!”
Rebecca asked, “What did you say?”
This will humiliate the Jeffords family even more.”
Rebecca was at a loss for words.
Her chest kept heaving.
She could hardly breathe when looking at Natalie and thought. “She did it on purpose. Natalie did it on purpose. She deliberately wants to humiliate the Jeffords family. This woman.
“You! You…” Rebecca stuttered.
In the end, the mansion was in complete chaos. The ambulance rushed over with sirens blaring and left amidst the cries and screams. The sense of urgency tore through the night.
On this night, the Jeffords family was also in disarray.
Calvin hurried to the hospital. It was already three o’clock in the morning when he returned to Autumnhall Residence. Compared to the depressed situation the Jeffords family was in. Natalie slept soundly, like nothing was bothering her.
At that moment, Calvin looked at Natalie coldly as he pulled the sleeping Natalie out of bed.
Natalie was dreaming when was pulled forcefully. She woke up and looked at the angry man with sleepy eyes.
“What are you doing?” Natalie asked as she thought, Is he angry? That makes sense. He should be!”
Calvin asked, “Natalie, why did you become like this?”
He thought, “A person was taken away by an ambulance from here. Yet, she is still sleeping here at ease.
Currently, Calvin’s handsome face was full of anger. He looked at the woman in front of him as if he were looking at a stranger.
It seemed that he had never known Natalie before.
He thought, “No. It’s not that I’ve never known her before. It’s her who has changed.”
Natalie’s right arm was still in pain. She quickly sorted out her emotions to face him. She merely said. “The person who is the most unqualified to ask me this question is you and your family.”
She thought, “Why did I become like this? Then, does anyone know what I’ve been through? If I’ve never suffered that pain: and desperation, will I become like this?”
Thinking of how she died in a fire and how Yvette came to her to provoke her in her previous life, Natalie thought, “To hell with being gentle, graceful, well-educated, and sensible!“
“What are you doing? Let go of me.” As she was thinking, Calvin dragged her out.
Natalie struggled, but she couldn’t break free because her right an hurt too much.
Calvin didn’t seem to hear her words. He was very disappointed with her now. Her change was unacceptable.
Her unruliness, indifference, and how she cheated on hun were all unbearable.
As she got in the car, Natalie slapped Calvin in the face.

He turned around. His eyes, which once looked at her only with gentleness, were void of any feelings for her and warmth.
Just as Calvin was about to shove her into the car again, the phone in his suit pocket rang. He pressed her down with one hand and picked up the phone with the other. ‘Speak!
Calvin, when will you come to the hospital? Yvette is in Mom’s ward?
Hearing that Yvette was in Rebecca’s ward, Calvin looked at Natalie under him with a chill in his
Natalie smiled mockingly.
Natalie’s smile grated on Calvin’s nerves. He said, “Send her back to her ward.
eyes
“She is stubborn and refuses to leave. When she secretly came to Mom’s ward, she got caught by the elevator and fell off her wheelchair. She scraped her knees.
Calvin unconsciously let go of Natalie. Tll be right there
The moment
Natalie was freed, she turned around and walked back. I’ll move out of here tomorrow.”
Calvin exclaimed, “Don’t you dare!”
Natalie turned around and looked at him. She was still smiling, but the decisiveness in her eyes was so clear in the silent confrontation.
As she turned around again, Calvin said, “Don’t forget that you are still my wife.”
“Soon, I won’t be.” After saying that, Natalie went inside.
Calvin stood still.
Looking at Natalie’s petite back, he thought, “She’s so tiny. Why does she have so much strength to fight everyone? That’s right. She’s doing this for that man abroad.”
Thinking of the scene on the news, his eyes darkened.
Calvin left.
Natalie leaned against the door weakly and collapsed onto the floor. Her usual cold demeanor disappeared, as if she had removed her mask.
During the three months abroad, she felt the most relaxed. She felt the long-lost warmth of home. She had thought the place where Calvin was would be her home. However, even Calvin couldn’t give her that feeling.
Calvin didn’t come back that night.
When Natalie came downstairs early in the morning, Zoey had served breakfast at the table. The breakfast was still prepared to Natalie’s liking, and everything was as usual.
The phone rang. It was Calvin. Natalie thought, “When did he get this number?”
She didn’t think too much and answered, “What is it?”
“Come to the hospital right away
Tm busy.” With that, she hung up the phone.
She knew that Calvin on the other end of the phone would be infuriated by what she said.
