"Eas-" Natalie started to call Easton's name but then saw Jennifer embracing him. Her brow furrowed slightly, and a flash of pain crossed her eyes. She wondered if Easton called her over just for this.

Easton also saw Natalie and the glint of pain flashed through her eyes. His heart gave a sharp jolt, and he pushed Jennifer

away.

Jennifer fell awkwardly onto the floor, her gaze dark as she watched Easton's back.

"Natalie, listen to me-"

"What do you want to say? Do you want to tell me how heated you two were last night? Did you call me here just to show off how in love you are?

"Easton, I remember you used to be a bit reserved, but at least you weren't this deceitful. Is it true you become like the person you're with?" Natalie turned around and left, not wanting to stay there a moment longer. "Natalie, come back!" Easton shouted angrily.

Jennifer smirked with pride, watching in a half-amused way as Natalie walked away. The timing today was perfect. She never thought Natalie would come back. It was pure luck that the timing was so perfect.

She slowly got up from the ground, walked over to Easton, and linked her arm to his. "Easton, Natalie clearly doesn't want to come back. Why insist on it? Her heart's not with you. Since she left, there have been countless men around her.

"Easton, did you forget the promise you made to me?" Jennifer looked at Easton, tears in her eyes, posing a picture of vulnerability that could melt anyone's heart.

Easton pulled his hand away, took off his jacket, and threw it aside.

Jennifer was taken aback. Watching Easton's disdainful actions, she felt pain in her heart. She was always the one he tolerated, indulged, and loved. Now, his disdainful look and actions deeply wounded her heart. "Easton, what do you mean by this?" Her eyes turned cold, her voice full of hurt.

"Can't you see? Jennifer, you saved my life, and I've repaid you with billions over the years. From now on, you can do what you want, but if you dare to mess with me and Natalie, I'll take back those billions with interest," Easton was never a good person. Jennifer was taken aback, then burst into laughter, "Easton, isn't it just because I'm not truly a Simpson that you look down on me? But is blood relation really that important? I was the one there as you grew up, not Natalie.

"Have you even forgotten all those happy times we shared in the past? Since I was a kid, I knew I was going to marry you. I turned down all the other men and stayed by your side wholeheartedly.

"Honestly, Easton, it was your mom who forced me to leave back then. It's not that I didn't want to look after you." "That's enough! Get out!" Easton growled, not wanting to listen to her ramblings as his eyes shone with a chilling light.

Jennifer bit her lip as she looked at his cold, handsome face. Her anger had peaked. She knew Easton well and realized that he was on the brink of losing his temper, so she left.

No one dared to face Easton's anger. Easton grew up in the dark. He wasn't a good person, and aside from knowing his temper, Jennifer never knew what was on his mind. Easton sat on the couch, a cold glare in his eyes. He sat for a moment and then called Xavier.

"Mr. Garcia," said Xavier, standing outside the door, watching Natalie storm away angrily. He also saw Jennifer leave, tears

running down her face again. He wondered what on earth happened this morning.

"Come in and have breakfast," Easton spoke quietly and hung up the phone.

All of a sudden, Xavier didn't feel like going in. He couldn't really eat with Easton giving him that icy stare. But he must go in. Seeing the door was slightly open, he went in.

Easton was already at the dining table, picking up his fork to cat breakfast, Omelet, steak, and milk were all his favorites. Natalie always made breakfast the way he liked it. But everything began to change after Jennifer returned. He indulged Jennifer to play tricks. Xavier walked over, sat down, and smiled at the spread of food. "Thanks for the breakfast, Mr. Garcia."

Easton took a bite of his pepper steak before asking, "Did you look into what I asked about last night?"

Xavier replied, "Mr. Garcia, you're always ahead of things. The Spencer family has been having issues with their branches lately but can't replace the root cause. Murray has been trying to sort it out but without luck, and they've lost two partnerships, which is quite unfortunate."

Easton's eyes narrowed. Natalie was right after all. He lowered his gaze and continued eating.

Noticing his silence, Xavier began eating faster. "By the way, Mr. Garcia, was Ms. Simpson here last night? I saw Ms. Shawn go in and then she left almost immediately. A few minutes later, Ms. Simpson also came out."

Easton's eyes darkened slightly as he glanced over. "How could Jennifer possibly be staying here?"

Xavier couldn't help but say, "Mr. Garcia, have you forgotten? A few months ago, Jennifer was allowed to stay here, and the guest room was stocked with her designer clothes and personal items.

"And she could freely enter your room. Ms. Shawn once told you that this was your shared home, and it was inconvenient for Jennifer to visit. Do you remember what you said back then?"

Of course Easton remembered. At that time, he thought he was going to marry Jennifer. During that period, Natalie and Jennifer were constantly arguing. And there were problems with the company projects. He was stressed, and Natalie often provoked Jennifer. His tone with Natalie wasn't good at all.

Easton put down his fork, his voice hoarse and rough. "Get rid of all the clothes upstairs, and Jennifer is not allowed to be here anymore."

Xavier was taken aback, almost tearing up. He said, "Mr. Garcia! Congratulations! You've finally realized what's right. Before Jennifer returned, you and Mrs. Garcia had been doing so well.

"Given your condition of being blind and unable to stand, it's very challenging to care for someone like you. But Mrs. Garcia didn't complain at all. She tirelessly gave you acupuncture, handled your hygiene, administered your medicine, and cooked delicious meals for you. "She was so busy that she barely had time to catch her breath. To Jennifer, her efforts just seemed like those of a housekeeper."

Xavier smiled and had his breakfast, then had someone come over to clear out all of Jennifer's stuff.

Natalie stormed off to the office, fuming. Thinking of Easton and Jennifer's shameless behavior really got under her skin.

me back, she's constantly interfered between them. Ever since Jennifer

Natalie had given Easton many chances, but he only cared about Jennifer and always made excuses for her. Even though the love was gone, thinking about the past still made Natalie angry.

She forcefully pushed open the door and was stunned by the scene in the office, her eyes blazing with fntense anger.
