Chapter 54 Natalie Wants to Chase Him
Charlotte’s smile turned sharp, loaded with meaning.
“Looking for someone?”
Natalie shot back, “None of your business.”
“He didn’t come.”
Natalie’s eyes narrowed. “You know who I’m looking for?”
“Nathan.”
“How do you know I’m looking for him?”

“That day at the property office, you were basically staring holes into him.”
Natalie let out a snort.
Charlotte suddenly felt like teasing her.
“You like him?”
To her surprise, Natalie didn’t even try to hide it.
“Yeah. So what?”
She admitted it way too easily.
Charlotte reminded her, “Did you even ask if he has a fiancée?”
Natalie didn’t care at all.

“Of course I know he has a fiancée. So what if he does? A fiancée is a fiancée-she’s not
a wife. People with wives still get divorced. So what’s a fiancée?”
Charlotte paused, thinking.
Well. That logic… didn’t seem completely wrong.
“So you’re planning to go after him?”
Not finding the person she wanted to see, Natalie pulled her gaze back, disappointed.
“What, I can’t?”

Charlotte smiled faintly. “Sure. Why not? It’s your call.”
Just don’t let it be a one-sided crush.
Natalie glanced toward Matthew.
He was talking seriously with Calvin.

The disappointment in Natalie’s chest turned into spite, and she dumped it onto
Charlotte on purpose.
“See that? Mr. Jones really likes my brother.”
Charlotte raised an eyebrow. “So?”
“So don’t you think you’re kind of… unnecessary?”
Charlotte didn’t get mad. She laughed instead and hit back. “You should worry about
whether you’ll be able to get married yourself.”
Natalie snorted with disdain. “I’m a Russell family heiress. There are tons of men lined
up for me. Why would I worry about not getting married?”
Charlotte’s voice stayed lazy. “The ones lining up are probably all ugly losers.”
“You!”
“While you’re still not that old, learn to be nicer, Otherwise, sooner or later you’ll turn
into dead stock-stuck in the Russell family, growing old alone.”
“Charlotte!”
Natalie went straight hands-on and shoved her.
Charlotte was in heels. She lost her balance and staggered back several steps.
Good thing someone behind her caught her, steady and sure.
Gordon stood there in a black suit. Under that handsome face was the same sloppy.
amused grin.
“I just came over to say hi. This is how you welcome people? So warm.”
Charlotte used his arm for support and regained her footing.

“Sorry you had to see that.”
Gordon flicked a glance at Natalie.
“Matthew’s sister?”
Charlotte nodded. “Yeah.”
Gordon arched a brow, openly mocking. “Pretty face. Too bad her heart’s crooked. Looks
like the Russell family’s upbringing isn’t much.”
Charlotte fought down a laugh.
“She’s spoiled.”
Natalie bristled and snapped back. “Who the hell are you? Is that how you talk? Why are
you insulting people?!”
Gordon said, “Insulting? I want to teach you a lesson. I just got out of there-I’ve been
itching to use my hands.”
Natalie flinched.
“Y-you… you got out of prison?”
“Yeah. Killed someone. Went to prison.”
Natalie took a step back.
“You killed…”
Gordon’s smile turned sinister. “Yeah. Not only killed them-I dismembered them. Cut
the body into piece after piece, dripping with blood, and then…”
Natalie clapped her hands over her ears.
“Stop talking! You…”
“Mr. Cameron.”
Matthew ended his conversation with Calvin and walked over.
“Matt!” Natalie ducked behind him. “He’s a murderer. He’s been to prison. Stay away
from him!”

Matthew instantly regretted bringing her.
This idiot girl-she believed everything people said.

“I’m sorry.” Matthew said politely. “Mr. Cameron, please don’t take offense. This is my younger sister, Natalie. She’s still young and doesn’t know better. If she offended you in any way, I hope you can forgive her.”
Seeing Gordon again, Matthew was courteous to the extreme.
But Gordon didn’t return the courtesy at all.
“Your sister didn’t offend me,” he said, coolly. “She just disrespected your wife way too
much.”
Charlotte wasn’t surprised by Gordon’s bluntness at all.
Back when they worked together, this man never followed anyone’s rules. It was
basically his personality.
Matthew scolded her, more for show than anything.
“Nat. What did you do this time?!”
Natalie opened her mouth and lied without blinking.
“I didn’t do anything. I remembered what you told me.”
“Look at that,” Gordon clicked his tongue. “Not only rude-she loves lying, too. Mr. Russell, your sister needs some serious discipline. Otherwise, if people find out the great Mr. Russell has such an embarrassing sister, won’t they laugh their heads off?”
Matthew’s expression tightened. His pride couldn’t quite hold.
Your own kid can be as rebellious as they want-close the door and handle it however
you like.
But getting mocked and ridiculed like this in front of outsiders? No one would be happy.
Still, because of Gordon’s status, Matthew couldn’t just explode.
“I don’t know what my sister did to make you look so angry, Mr. Cameron,” he said.
Gordon wore a faint smile.

“Angry? No. I just can’t stand it. A little sister who shows zero respect to her sister-i
n-law, and even lays hands on her sister-in-law-Mr. Russell, don’t you think that’s a bit
too much?”
Charlotte almost laughed.
Calling it “laying hands on” was a little dramatic, wasn’t it?
Natalie protested stubbornly. “What do you mean ‘lays hands’?! You’re being ridiculous! I
