Chapter 120 Getting Bolder

The next day. Natalie woke up early.

When she came down, Stephen was already at the dining table. Seeing the tired look on her face, he

frowned and asked, “Didn’t sleep well?”

“Yeah.”

Of course, she couldn’t sleep well.

How could she after learning such earth–shattering news all of a sudden?!

Even digesting it would take time.

Stephen placed a glass of milk before her, saying. “This is what your aunt was worried about.”

Speaking of Heather, Natalie felt a wave of gratitude. It’s a good thing she had her uncle, her aunt, her

They wouldn’t let her end up like she did in her previous life.

Taking a sip of the milk, she asked Stephen, “How are you getting there later?”

“Me?”

“Yeah.” Stephen nodded.

Natalie tightened her grip on her spoon. Verde City wasn’t that big, and Stephen wouldn’t stay here for too

long.

If she went out with Stephen today and bumped into him again, that would be…

Cedric hadn’t quite recovered from their ten–year relationship ending, and Natalie worried he might not

handle it well and vent his frustrations on her again.

If she encountered such a situation, it would just be another headache.
