Chapter 1077 

Outside the mall, Vera dialed Jeremy’s number. He answered on the first ring. 

“Mr. Hughes, it’s Vera. I just ran into your ex–wife at the mall.” 

Jeremy had initially answered out of courtesy, but his expression shifted when he heard her mention Natalie. He raised an eyebrow. “Oh?” 

“She’s been acting recklessly. Even though she’s just your ex–wife now, it might be best to remind her to be more careful,” Vera offered her “helpful” advice. 

Jeremy’s face darkened. “Who did she offend?” 

Vera quickly recounted the situation. “With how she’s acting, she’s bound to be used as a pawn.” 

“What mall?” Jeremy asked, his tone sharp. 

Without hesitation, Vera gave the location. She knew people in their circle couldn’t afford to have their image tarnished, and she was confident that Jeremy would confront Natalie. 

“She doesn’t have to hold back with anyone when I’m around. She can say what she wants. Vera, don’t act so high and mighty in front of me. 

“I know your family’s situation all too well. If you cause her any trouble, don’t expect me to be merciful.” After a brief silence, Jeremy spoke in a cold, measured tone.

A wave of confusion hit her as she stood on the sidewalk, watching people rush past. She felt humiliated. 

It seemed like everyone had been taking shots at her lately, leaving her feeling as if she were nothing more than a stray dog. 

Vera had lived with pride for over 20 years, but she had never felt so defeated as she did now. 

Neither Skylar nor Natalie had any reason to disrespect her like this, especially considering Natalie’s current circumstances after being discarded by Jeremy. Vera thought she should at least be shown some 

courtesy. 

At that moment, her phone rang. 

“Mr. Martin is at the golf course on the outskirts of town. You should come quickly.” 

Vera’s eyes lit up. “Got it.” 

Skylar and Natalie were in a vintage–inspired boutique, trying on every dress they fancied. Before they knew it, an hour had passed. 

Natalie had picked out three dresses and was beaming with joy. “These are amazing. I’m going to wear
