Love’s Second Act by Alvis Midden
Chapter 29

Chapter 29 

Brianna and Natalie didn’t probe. When they came outside, Natalie exuded a cold aura. Brianna followed quickly and grabbed her wrist. “Nat,” 

I’m fine.” Despite what she said, she felt overwhelmed. 

She could not understand why Calvin would bail those people out. 

In the past, he would never show mercy to those who wanted to hurt Natalie, regardless of who they were. 

However, this time, he bailed out the people who had cursed her incessantly during that controversy and sent her fake money, blades, and dead animals. 

“What was Calvin thinking?” 

“Cecilia and Yvette most likely bribed those people,” Natalie said with an uncontrollable tremble as she looked at Brianna. 

Brianna’s temper flared instantly. “Why did he do that then?” 

Why did he do that? 

Natalie also had no idea. 

Who knew what had happened during the three months when she was away? Her leaving for some time should have mitigated what had happened in her previous life. 

Though some things had been buffered, new situations had also troubled her. 

“I will definitely help you win this divorce lawsuit. What the hell is wrong with that scumbag? Those people would’ve killed you if they could, and he bailed them out.” 

Brianna was seething with anger 

Natalie was standing in the sunlight, her beautiful face ashen. She moved her l*ps, but she didn’t know what to say. 

What was the point of those ten years? 

In the end, Calvin did this to her! 

Natalie had no idea how she got back to Brianna’s residence. Brianna had gone to work. Before leaving, she told Natalie she would order takeout for her at noon. Natalie refused and said she could do it herself. 

A few grunts came from the mini pig at her feet. She lowered her head and saw Jeffrina rubbing against her sl*ppers with its round b*dy 

It was evident that Zoey had taken good care of it during the months that Natalie had been abroad. 

When she left Autumnhall Residence, she took nothing but this pig with her! 

She bent over, drew the butle pig into her arms, and rubbed its little head. “Are you hungry? You’ll be wandering around with 

me from now on” 

The little pig knew nothing and had no concept of being in an unfamiliar environment 

A pig was just a pog. It would sleep rat, and then repeat the cycle 

Calvin brought this pag for her when he way on a business trip the warned she would be bored at home but didn’t allow her to work

However, was she actually bored? 

Not 

While he was absent, Rebecca would always find various ways to torture her. 

Buzz! The phone’s vibration interrupted Natalie’s thoughts 

She took it out and looked at it 

It was a call from Calvin. 

She didn’t want to answer the phone, so she declined directly. Soon, Calvin called again, and Natalie lost patience several 

times after. 

Finally, she accepted the call. “What do you want?” 

“Come down.” 

Natalie was speechless. 

She thought. He’s downstairs?” 

She calculated the time and found they had only been apart for less than two hours. “I’ll be there soon!” 

Initially, she didn’t want to see Calvin, but after thinking about the information she learned at the police station that day, she needed to question him in person. 

Although she knew she had probably guessed his motivation, her despicable heart did not allow her to believe it. 

She had to get an emphatic result. 

When she saw Calvin, she noticed the coldness on his face. Natale was not much better. She stood in front of the car door and said coldly. I have something to ask you.” 

“Let’s go back and eat first.” Calvin looked at the time on his watch. It was lunchtime. 

Natalie said, “I will never go back to Autumnhall Residence again! 

“What do you mean? Are you running away from home? Is this the kind of person you are now?” Calvin said, his tone unsteady. 

It was not a good thing that Natalie ran away from home. 

A prominent family’s marriage would receive a lot of attention. If Natalie ran away from home right now, it’d be in the news before the next day arrived. 

For several months, the Jeffords family had been the subject of debates. 

Although they were all dealt with in the end, some mpact of the controversy remained. Who wouldn’t want to live a peaceful lifer 

Natalie knew what Calvin was thinking 

She sand. You’re feeling ashamed now? The Jeffords family did not feel ashamed in the past when you got involved with her. didn’t they? 

“Natalie, do you have to say that right now? Calvin telt a sharp pain in fus head 

Natalie looked at him thufumfully. Then what do you want me to say? I suffered from your and that woman’s slander, but I didn’t say anything, and yet you’re bemg arrogant

to Calvin. 

Calvin’s eyebrows twitched. 

He was supposed to bring her back, but now…. 

Speaking of the cyberbullying, Natalie’s questioning and disdainful look toward Calvin grew more intense. “By the way, I went to the police station today. I would have no idea if I didn’t go there. You actually bailed those people out? Can you tell me, as a husband, what were you up to?” 

Calvin’s eyes turned cold as Natalie spoke of those cyberbullies 

He almost forgot about that if she had not mentioned it. “How dare you ask me what I was up to Shouldn’t you give me a reasonable explanation for that instead?” 

“Give you an explanation: You must be out of your mind!” 

Natalie was erupted in rage. 

Calvin’s face was also filled with suppressed anger.) 

Calvin said. “All those people have transaction records on their accounts showing the transfers they received from your bank card. Natalie, can you tell me why?” 

Natalie was speechless. 

She thought, “Transfer records from my bank card? The card to which someone transferred money from Calvin’s account back then?” She did not know where it was, 

Only then did Natalie understand. 

“So, I have to thank you, right? Thank you for trying your best to cover this matter for me?” It seemed she had really underestimated those people. 

However, this also supported Natalie’s speculation that they had bribed the violent people who fanned the flames. 

In that case, it would be easy to deal with. 

Calvin looked at her, struggling to keep the disappointment from appearing in his eyes. 

Natalie closed her eyes and turned to leave. Calvin’s furious voice sounded from behind her. “Stop” 

“What now?” 

Natalie’s tone was cold and devoid of warmth. 

Calvin said, “Mom is awake. She wants to see you.” 

“Rebecca wants to see me?” Natalie repeated in her heart.. 

Rebecca indeed wanted to see Natalie. She wished to tear Natalie to shreds. She probably wouldn’t be able to breathe without venting her anger on Natalie. 

Natalie said, “I won’t go 

After saying this, she left without waiting for Calvin’s reaction. 

Calvin sat in the car and looked at Natalie’s back. His face darkerjed, and his eyes became more and more gloomy. 

He thought, ‘She has completely changed.

Chapter 29 

Aside from not going to the hospital to apologize to Yvette, she hasn’t even shown up once to visit my mother in the hospital. Just because of that man abroad? 

Heh. If she wants to break free from me like this and be with that man abroad, she’ll have to ask my permission first. 

Calvin went back to his office coldly. Before he sat down, he received a call from the hospital and answered it. “Speak” 

The words on the other end of the call caused his initially grim expression to change dramatically when he heard them, 

He hurriedly said, “Tll be right ther
