Chapter 366
A few days passed since the controversy at the banquet. As a result, everyone had heard about Lia’s poisoning at the event.
Some speculated that Lia had an affair with Samuel, causing Natalie to poison her out of jealousy. Subsequently, the Bowers family covered it up to keep the peace. Others claimed that Lia had an insidious agenda. She planned to drive a wedge between Samuel and Natalie by poisoning herself and then creating an opportunity to step in.
Inside a bar, Yana was describing the rumors in high society about the event while Natalie was snacking away on chicken wings, leaving a pile of bones in front of her.
When she saw that Natalie barely reacted, Yana grew anxious on her behalf.
“Natalie, aren’t you bothered by the baseless accusations?”
“Of course I am.” Natalie grinned. “But that’s nothing I can do about it. The next time a new controversy breaks, they will naturally forget about what happened between me and the Johnson family. I won’t be the first victim and neither will I be the last.”
Upon hearing Natalie’s words, Yana’s serious expression was replaced by hearty laughter.
“If you were a man, I would get a divorce and be with you.”

Smiling wryly, Hans commented, “Yana, come on. I’m sitting right here.”
Just as he spoke, everyone else guffawed.
Instead, Natalie barely joined in and glanced at Hans. “Hans, now that she is pregnant, there’s no way she can leave with me even if I’m a man.”
“Pregnant?” Hans was stunned.
“I’m pregnant?” Yana gasped with her mouth agape.
Natalie nodded with a smile. “Yana, when I took your pulse just now, I noticed that you’re recovering well. At the same time, I have discovered signs of pregnancy. After a week, I expect the hospital to detect it during your check-up.”
Yana and Hans shifted from being shocked to crying tears of joy.
