Caught Him Cheating My Life Restarted (Natalie) novel Chapter 38

"Philip, take the young master downstairs."

As his assistant led Lucas away, Terence studied Natalie. The more he looked, the more she resembled a grown-up version of her.

Suddenly, Terence clutched his leg. "My leg... it's hurting again."

As a doctor, Natalie couldn't stand to see anyone in pain.

She immediately knelt to examine his leg.

There was an old, deep-seated injury.

"Let me give you some massage. It should help ease the pain."

The moment Natalie finished, Terence's leg miraculously felt better.

"Wait, the pain is gone."

"It's gone just like that?"

Natalie looked at him quizzically. Terence quickly explained.

"No, it's just... my leg is treated by a dedicated medical team. Some random masssge might interfere with their treatment plan and affect their diagnosis."

"Then let me contact your people to take you home."

"Your medical skills are remarkable. Why don't you join my medical team and treat my leg?"

"I can't."

Natalie had already applied for her passport and booked her flight. She was taking her son and leaving this place. She couldn't stay behind to treat his leg.

"Why not?"

Terence had never acted or fought for anything in his life. His first attempt had been met with a swift rejection.

"I'm leaving the country. I'm taking my son away from Aurelis."

"You're not getting a divorce?"

"I want custody of my son, but I know I can't win. I'll take him away first and mail the divorce papers to him later."

So that's why. When she found out about their affair, she didn't confront Darren but called the police instead.

Just as Natalie was about to leave, Charles Fairchild appeared.

"Natalie, wait. Grandpa has something for you."

"This is a contract and a project proposal. They will undoubtedly give you a hard time when you get back. Give these to them. Until you are safely out of the country, I don't want them troubling you."

"Sir, this is a contract with the Cross Group. You're going to partner with them?"

"This is just a way to keep them in check. Grandpa won't let them take advantage. Take this contract, go back, and rub it in their faces. Be as arrogant as you can be. Make them furious."

Old Mr. Fairchild's expression became theatrical. But he was right; he had thought of everything for her. After the failure of the partnership, the Cross family would certainly make things difficult.

This contract would not only protect her from their harassment but also allow her to put them in their place.

"Thank you, Old Mr. Fairchild."

After Natalie left, Terence said coolly, "I never knew you were an eavesdropper."

"My boy here is still single. As a self-appointed grandfather, I have to look out for suitable matches, don't I?"

Terence was speechless.
