Echoes Of a Forsaken Heart (Natalia and Hamilton) novel Chapter 311

Hamilton released her with a chuckle, even as he pressed down on her legs.

"Look at you, bumping right into it!"

Natalia glared at him, wiping her mouth with a look of distaste.

But Hamilton, ever so gently, lifted his hand to caress her soft cheek with his knuckles.

"Natalia, thank you."

She hesitated for a moment, then averted her gaze.

"I did it for the kid. I don't want our child's father hurting himself over some childhood memories."

Hamilton's eyes were filled with an undeniable affection.

"Yeah, I know."

He smiled, rubbing his fingers across his chin with her hand.

"Even if it's for our child, I'm grateful you'd take this step."

Natalia tried to retract her hand, but Hamilton held on tighter.

She frowned, and Hamilton, seizing the moment, pulled out a document from the storage compartment beside them.

Natalia was taken aback.

"What's this?"

"Just open it," Hamilton said with a smile.

After hesitating for a moment, she did—and was shocked. Hamilton had transferred 51% of Ivy Gemstone's shares into her name.

Natalia looked at Hamilton, utterly stunned.

"Hamilton, what... why?"

His eyes were tender. "I told you, it's yours. Ivy Gemstone was always meant for you."

For a moment, Natalia was at a loss for words.

After a while, she tried to hand the agreement back to Hamilton.

"I told you, I can't accept this."

Hamilton played with her fingers, saying, "Then let's keep it for our child. From now on, I'm working for you two, Ms. Jenkins. If you'll let me, I'm willing to work for you for the rest of my life."

Natalia's fingers curled slightly. She looked down, taking a long time before she finally spoke.

"Hamilton, you don't have to do this."

Hamilton laughed softly. "Whether it's necessary or not, I decide. For you and our child, everything is necessary."

With that, he started the car and drove off.

Natalia leaned back in her seat, her thoughts a whirlwind as she gazed into the night.

Meanwhile, in another car parked in front of the Foreign Affairs Department, Delilah watched their car drive away, slamming her hand against the steering wheel in frustration.

Lately, she had become the laughingstock of Boria City's elite circles.

All that kept her going was her grandfather's prophecy that Natalia would eventually face disaster.

But as she waited and watched, Natalia only seemed to thrive, fueling Delilah's rage.

Suddenly, she couldn't wait any longer.

When the two returned to the hotel, Killian had already ordered dinner.

Natalia, seeing Killian briefing Hamilton by his side, felt as though she had walked into another trap.

"Can you two be a little more discreet around me?"

Killian looked somewhat awkward, but Hamilton seemed unfazed.

"It's part of his job," he said with a smile, turning to Natalia who then stalked off to the bedroom.

Once she was gone, Hamilton inquired, "Any news from the Powell family recently?"

Killian shook his head.

"The Powell family has been unusually quiet these days."

Hamilton nodded and dismissed him with a wave of his hand.

Natalia emerged from the bedroom in fresh clothes to find Hamilton on the phone, his frame thinner yet bearing a mature aura.

She couldn't help but notice the world-weariness in his eyes, a stark contrast to his efforts to seem cheerful around her.

Without saying much, Natalia sat at the table and began unpacking the food.

Hamilton wrapped up his call.

"You planning to move?"

Natalia paused before replying, "Yes."
