Caught Him Cheating My Life Restarted (Natalie) novel Chapter 152

"It's what I deserve."

Natalie fell silent. What could have happened that would make him feel like this?

"You're only curious about how my leg was injured, not about where Lucas and Liana came from?"

Terence looked at Natalie, his eyes filled with an emotion she couldn't comprehend.

"I'm a doctor treating you, so my only concern is how your leg was injured. As for where Lucas and Liana came from, that's not my place to ask."

Indeed, whose children Lucas and Liana were had nothing to do with her.

Why should she need to know?

Just then, three figures—one large and two small—huddled in a corner, whispering, "What's going on with these two? Why is listening to them talk so frustrating?"

"I know, right? They kill the conversation in an instant. Is there zero chemistry between them? This is driving me crazy."

Suddenly, there was a loud crash.

The three of them tumbled out into the open. Natalie was startled, but thankfully her hand was steady enough not to accidentally hurt Terence.

"Excuse us."

The trio scrambled to their feet awkwardly. Terence's eyes were cold as he said, "You three enjoy eavesdropping, do you?"

Mrs. Lockwood said nervously, "Eavesdropping? What eavesdropping? I just forgot something."

With an awkward expression, he continued, "Lucas, Liana, help Grandma look for her pearl bracelet. It must have fallen around here somewhere. Hurry, find it... find it."

While pretending to search the floor, Mrs. Lockwood added, "My son's leg was broken by vicious criminals while he was trying to save someone. As for Lucas and Liana..."

Terence knew that those two people at dinner had upset Natalie deeply, but she had put on a brave face for Lucas and Liana, even playing with them.

"I'm fine. I'm happy when I'm with the children."

Darren and Hanley had indeed ruined her mood.

But Lucas and Liana's adorable presence had helped her temporarily forget her troubles.

She just hadn't expected him to notice what she was feeling inside.

"They love being with you, too. So, will you stay with them?"

Lucas and Liana had grown very attached to Natalie, and Terence was now afraid she might leave them.

"I'll be their tutor for as long as they need me."
