Chapter 1235 Jacqueline Locked Up
In response, Natalie shrugged. “I just said that a dog was barking, but I didn’t mention any name. You said that yourself.”
“How dare you?” Jacqueline leaped up. Balling her fist, she swung it at Natalie’s face. “You asked for it, b*tch!”
Natalie never expected her to be so easily provoked that she would lash out without warning, and her expression changed.
Jacqueline’s fist could no longer budge an inch, suspended in mid-air.
All that happened in the blink of an eye.
When Natalie realized what had happened, she gaped at the housekeeper in surprise. Never had she thought that the woman would help her hold Jacqueline back.
The accompanying whistling sound earlier also showed its force. If the blow had landed on her, it would have set her out at once.
Astonishingly, the housekeeper caught Jacqueline’s fist effortlessly. Jacqueline could neither punch it forward nor pull it back, and her face flushed bright red from fury.
It was clear as day that the housekeeper was exceedingly strong and skilled, for she wouldn’t have been able to restrain someone so easily otherwise.
“Let go of me!” Jacqueline ordered shrilly after wrenching her arm a few times to retract her fist but to no avail.
The housekeeper regarded her coldly. “Miss, Sir instructed me to keep an eye on you and make sure that you don’t harm a single hair on madam. You went against his orders by getting physical with madam, so I’ve got no choice but to restrain you and lock you in your room while waiting for Sir to come back and decide your fate.”
“What? How dare you?” Jacqueline roared, her face contorting into a mask of fury.
Sean actually gave such an order? Does he really care about Natalie that much? She injured him, yet he’s still protecting her! Does he not have any dignity?
She wasn’t the only one surprised, for Natalie was likewise taken aback. She never expected Sean to order the housekeeper to protect her when he left.
For a moment, she couldn’t quite discern her feelings toward him. She felt both regretful and conflicted.
If there weren’t any bad blood between him, me, and Shane, he would be a cousin I respect greatly. Alas, there are no ifs.
