After tasting it, Natalie felt her melancholy deepen.
It was too good. The thought of not being able to eat this again was genuinely heartbreaking.
Seeing her expression, Terence grew worried. “You don’t like the food today? Tell me what you want to eat, and I’ll make something else for you.”
Terence started to head for the kitchen but was stopped when Natalie grabbed his arm. “It’s not that it’s bad,” she said. “It’s just… it’s too good. What will I do if I can’t have it anymore in the future?”
Lucas and Liana were his children, after all. They could eat his food in the future. But Natalie felt she was different. She had no real ties to them. If one day they parted ways, that would be it. She would never get to eat Terence's cooking again, a taste she would miss for the rest of her life.
Terence looked at Natalie. Was she trying to say she couldn't bear to leave him?
Just then, Natalie felt Terence’s gaze grow deep and affectionate. He said, “Don’t worry. I won’t leave you.”
Natalie froze. What was he saying?
She suddenly realized her words might have given him the wrong impression.
“Terence, that’s not what I meant. I…” she stammered awkwardly.
Just then, Lucas teased, “Oh, so Natalie doesn’t want to leave Daddy. If you leave Daddy, you won’t get to eat all this delicious food anymore.”
Liana nodded furiously beside him.
Natalie’s embarrassment intensified. Her words really had been easy to misinterpret. But Terence’s cooking was truly incredible; it felt like she could never be happy again if she couldn't eat it.
How could she possibly explain herself now? Watching Natalie’s flustered expression, caught between wanting to explain and not knowing how, Terence, Lucas, and Liana all found it quite amusing.
The rest of the meal was filled with happiness.

The next day.
Terence held his phone, his face dark. “Terminate all cooperation between Aurelius Dominion Group and the Everhart Group.”
Everyone knew Terence was the president of the Lockwood Group, but no one knew he was the man behind Aurelius Dominion Group, Aurelis’s most mysterious and powerful financial conglomerate.
After hanging up, Terence heard a knock on the door.
At this time of day, Natalie and the kids were at work and school. Who could it be?
Terence opened the door to find Marcus Ward, along with Mr. and Mrs. Ward.
“Are you here for Natalie? She’s at work.”
Marcus Ward said, “No, I’m here to see you.”
Here to see him? Terence found that intriguing.
What could they want with him?
“Please, come in and have a seat.”

I think Terence must know something isn't right about Angela, that's why he agreed to figure it out....
Marie needs to be gone, she has caused enough trouble for Natalie. This is getting boring!...
This fiasco needs to end. Natalie and Terrance need to be together and in my mind somehow those twins are Natalie’s....
Time for Marie to get her end, this has gone on way too long, time to move on. It’s getting boring....
Payback time. Waiting for chapters 321 onwards!...
I love the sarcastic comebacks. Quite amusing!...
