Caught Him Cheating My Life Restarted (Natalie) novel Chapter 129

Natalie was at a loss for words.

“I’ve been the daughter-in-law long enough to become the woman in charge. Arranging a pharmacy for you is no problem at all.”

“Just being allowed to read here is more than enough for me. A study is too much.”

Natalie knew this was no ordinary place. She was already thrilled to have been snuck in.

A private pharmacy of her own was something she didn't dare to imagine.

“Theory without practice is useless. Don’t worry, I’ll handle it. Just leave it to me. For now, just stay here and read.”

With that, Mrs. Lockwood left, leaving Natalie alone in the library.

These books were incredibly precious, yet she had been entrusted to be alone with them. It was a profound level of trust.

She remembered how Mrs. Cross used to watch her every move when she was cleaning her closet, her eyes filled with undisguised suspicion.

Any one of these ancient texts was worth more than a hundred of Mrs. Cross’s closets.

And yet, she was trusted completely.

Natalie looked at the shelves full of books, her eyes shining. This was a scene from her dreams. She felt as if she had dreamt of this place before, and now, unbelievably, it was real.

Natalie picked up *The Anatomy of Touch: Classical Massage Techniques* and began to read, completely engrossed.

She was so lost in the book that she didn't hear Lucas and Liana calling her name multiple times.

“Natalie, what are you doing here? We’re not allowed to come here.”

“Mrs. Lockwood said I could use this place for a little while.”

should leave before Great-Grandma finds out.”

Lucas had snuck in once before, and his great-grandmother had been furious. She doted on him and rarely got angry, but that incident had made it clear that this was no ordinary place. Even as her favorite great-grandson, he wasn't allowed inside.

“If that’s the case, then let’s go.”

“Forget it. I can see your eyes light up when you look at those books. Go do what you want to do. It’s just tutoring two kids. It’s not like I can’t handle it.”

Terence’s words made Natalie happy, knowing she could continue reading, but something also felt a little off.

If he could do it, then what was the point of hiring her as a tutor?

She decided she would just finish the case study she was reading and then go help them.

Terence was tutoring Lucas when Natalie returned.

“The assessment team is coming to the kindergarten tomorrow. I want to do one last check on Lucas’s progress, just to be sure.”

Natalie had been doing intensive training with Lucas for the past few days. Fortunately, he was exceptionally gifted and picked things up instantly.

“Lucas, I think tomorrow will bring a result that satisfies us both.”

Natalie had faith in Lucas, and he responded with equal determination, “Don’t worry, Natalie. I won’t let you down.”
