Caught Him Cheating My Life Restarted (Natalie) novel Chapter 186

The word 'dad' seemed to conjure a different image in her mind.

Martin Doyle said without a shred of shame, "Natalie, you're so smart. If you take your mother away, there'll be no one to cook or do laundry for me. That kind of work would cost at least one hundred fifty to two hundred thousand a year. And she can serve me for at least another 40 years. So, I'll give you the family discount... let's call it five million dollars."

Kate paled. "You just asked Natalie for two million! She's divorced now, and she left with nothing. Where would she get five million dollars?"

"If she doesn't have five million, then she can't take you away. Just stay here obediently, and everything will be fine."

Natalie pulled her mother closer. Her gaze was firm as she looked at Martin Doyle. "I'll give you the five million, but I'm taking my mother with me right now. Every second spent with someone like you is a waste of air."

With that, Natalie tried to pull Kate toward the door, but Martin Doyle suddenly blocked their path. "You want to take her? No way. Not unless I see the money today."

He used his body to barricade the doorway.

He sneered, a look of contempt on his face. "Natalie, you really are a cheap tramp. You finally married into the Cross family and became the young madam of the Cross Group. What couldn't you endure? So what if Darren was having an affair with his widowed sister-in-law? Couldn't you just turn a blind eye? You had to make a huge scene and get a divorce. Now that you've left the Cross family, do you think you're still someone important?

Kate clutched Natalie's arm. "Natalie, you need to think carefully about your future. Besides, you and Darren have a child. Can you bear to see Hanley grow up without a mother?"

"Mom, don't you worry about Hanley. He won't let himself be without a mother. He'll find himself a new one. And even if I'm not worth much, I can take care of myself and you. So please, don't mention Darren again."

Martin Doyle exclaimed, "Bah! How are you going to take care of yourself and your mother now? You can't even come up with five million dollars. Before you divorced Darren, he gave us a hundred thousand a month for living expenses. Now that you're divorced, he's cut us off.

"I think you're just stupid. If you hadn't gotten divorced, you'd still be the wife of the Cross Group's CEO. Wherever you went, people would respect me, your father. Now you're just a divorced piece of trash. What good are you? Do you really think you can marry into another wealthy family? Do you have that kind of luck? Those rich men are just looking to use you!"
