After the Divorce, CEO Realizes He’s the Stand-In Lover

Chapter 150 Settling down

During the seemingly endless wait for the call to connect, though only a few seconds had passed, Natalie felt an unbearable length of time.

Living alone in Los Angeles, coupled with the risks of identity exposure at any time, she couldn’t deny that she was nervous.

Her hand holding the phone trembled slightly, and she stared without blinking at the person at the door, fearing any sudden movement from him.

After a few seconds, the sound of a ringing phone came from outside the door.

The sudden ringing of the bell startled Natalie, who almost couldn’t hold her phone. She called Hugh, how could it be that the ringing came from outside the door?

The phone was answered.

Hugh on the other end of the phone didn’t speak, as he was waiting for Natalie to speak.

“Hugh, come to Greenlife villa quickly. “Natalie lowered her voice and looked at the man outside

the door.

Wait… The person at the door seemed to have moved… He seemed to be turning his head

towards the house…

Natalie’s heart skipped a beat. She only glanced briefly and couldn’t clearly see the person’s face. She quickly turned around and pressed her back against the wall. Her scalp tingled, her heart pounded, and she didn’t dare to move, afraid of attracting the attention of the man outside the

door.

“I’m in the villa,” Hugh’s voice came through the phone.

Natalie raised her eyebrows and asked, “Are you in Greenlife villa? Where? At the door?” She quickly asked, but she didn’t dare to turn her head due to the man outside the door.

“Yes.”

Didn’t you see anyone at the door? “Natalie frowned and whispered.

Hugh held his phone and turned around to look around the yard. It was quiet and still, with no

sound or any sign of a person.

“No,” Hugh replied.

Natalie was even more puzzled at the moment. How could there be no one? She clearly saw
