Rebirth Of Vengeance (Natalie and Easton) -
Rebirth Of 366
Murray looked up and saw Easton's serious yet handsome face. Murray leaned toward Natalie, whining, "Natalie, look, he's intimidating me. His eyes are so cold; I'm really scared." Murray instantly became a drama king, looking utterly frightened.
Murray's antics amused Natalie. Natalie remarked inside, 'Murray is such a drama queen.
Easton stood there calmly. His wild and untamed aura was so appealing.
Natalie gave Easton a complicated look and said, "Mr. Garcia, if you have things to do, please go ahead and handle them."
Easton looked at Natalie intensely and said, "Tonight, you're my date."
Natalie glanced at the banquet hall and frowned. She said, "Tonight isn't a significant event. Maris invited everyone just to create some drama.
"Now that the show is over, you can do your own thing. It doesn't matter if I'm with you or not. Go handle your business."
In public, she preferred to keep her distance. She didn't want any connection with Easton. She had her own plans.
Tonight, Easton didn't help Jennifer. Jennifer would try to capture Easton's heart soon. Once Davian was out of jail, Jennifer's schemes against Natalie would follow one after another. So, the upcoming drama would get more and more exciting, but Natalie would also be in more danger.
Easton suddenly sat down next to Natalie.
Murray gave Easton an angry look and said, "Mr. Garcia, shouldn't you be chasing your true love? It's rude to interrupt us like this. Can't you see we're having dinner?"
His handsome face was full of complaints, and his eyes held a hint of challenge.
Easton knew Murray was doing it on purpose. Murray was like a kid in his eyes. He didn't pay much attention to Murray.
"Natalie, what do you think of my looks?" Murray suddenly asked, raising his handsome face for Natalie to see.
Natalie was slightly taken aback, wondering, 'What is Murray up to?' She smiled and answered, "Very handsome. Great charisma."
Murray wasn't satisfied with her response. With a touch of vanity, he listed his qualities, "Natalie, when it comes to looks, I'm a standout beauty. In terms of skills, I'm exceptional. Age-wise, we're a perfect match. "Unlike those older guys, who are just past their prime and dull. Natalie, if you ever get divorced, can you think of me first? I'm only getting better, and my professor praised my great thesis."
Murray grinned with a captivating and confident smile that seemed to have a mysterious charm that naturally drew people
1. in.
Natalie was momentarily taken aback, suddenly regretting answering his question.
Hearing what Murray said, Easton's face was dark, as if someone else was eyeing his prey. His intense, cold eyes seemed ready to tear Murray apart.
Natalie understood that Easton didn't care about her but saw her as his toy being competed for, with a strong sense of territoriality.

The surrounding air cooled noticeably.
Murray caught Easton's bloodthirsty gaze and intentionally shrank back. He clutched Natalie's arm and said, "Natalie, he is looking at me so frighteningly again. He's scaring me." +5
Natalie was speechless. She almost burst out laughing because of Murray's words. She thought, 'How did I not realize before that Murray is so manipulative?'
Natalie intentionally sided with Murray. She frowned at Easton and said, "Mr. Garcia, your expression is too serious. You're scaring Murray."
Easton gritted his teeth as he looked at Natalie. He thought, 'She acts like she cares for Murray a lot. Let her get cocky for now, she'll replace out what's in store for her once back.
Easton said, "Natalie, James recently hit a snag with a project. I am going to send people over to help. With how you've been acting, you don't need to go."
He finished speaking and stood up to leave. The message was clear: he wanted Natalie to go after him. Natalie was always the one chasing after him. This time, he habitually left, showing Natalie only his back.
Natalie stared at Easton, wishing her gaze could turn into a dagger and pierce his chest, making him disappear for good.
Natalie picked up her phone and sent a message to James: [James, I heard your project overseas ran into some issues. Is that true?]
James replied: [Natalie, it's nothing, just a little issue. I'll handle it, don't worry. Ensure you eat well and dress warmly when you go out; don't catch a cold.]
Seeing James's reply, Natalie was sure something was wrong.
Natalie looked at Murray and said, "Murray, whenever you see Easton again, be sure not to provoke him. His true power is hidden beneath the surface. If he decides to make trouble for you, it could be scarier than dealing with Jennifer." Murray felt a bit anxious. He said, "I provoked him earlier. Do you think he'll try to cause problems for me?"
A year ago, Murray lived without worry. But this past year had been full of events that had started to scare him a little. Schemes were everywhere, and they were indeed a little frightening.
What was scary was not the theft itself but the constant worry about it.
Natalie smiled at Murray and said, "Now you understand what being scared is like."
Murray thought about Wendy's company and nodded. He said, "Yeah, it's pretty scary."
Natalie comforted him, "Don't worry! Easton isn't as malicious as Jennifer. You enjoy your meal. I'll go check some things out."
Only after Natalie left did Murray suddenly remember how threatening Easton's words had been earlier. Murray wanted to ask more, but Natalie's figure vanished in the elegant hall.
Nick took Jennifer and Camellia back home. The whole way back, each of the three was lost in their own thoughts. Camellia looked utterly defeated, her face ashen. She had spent half her life in the limelight, and tonight was the first time she'd felt so humiliated. She thought, "That witch Maris was determined to push me over the edge. She couldn't win Colin's heart, yet she blamed everything on me. Just wait, I am going to make her life a living nightmare.

Once they entered the house, Nick turned around and slapped Camellia.
Camellia was in the middle of scheming against Maris and Wendy when the sudden slap blindsided her.
She asked, "Nick, did you just hit me?" She was already feeling wronged and couldn't hold back her tears anymore.

Jennifer was really angry, too. She thought, 'Nick is such a cowar, only ever hitting people and always looking to Wendy for money. He is a total loser. He has only a little bit of use left, and now he is almost completely useless. Jennifer mocked, "Dad, why do you hit Mom? She's kept your business steady by staying in touch with everyone. You're not perfect either, so why blame her?
"If you had gotten rid of Wendy sooner, would Mom have been humiliated like this? She's already upset enough tonight. What's the point of hitting her? "You're the useless one, and my mom has been putting up with this for so many years. You don't even appreciate her hard work, and now you're hitting her." SEND GIFT
