Then, I hung up the phone. Having done so, I hailed a taxi and rushed over to Natalie’s house.
About half an hour later, I arrived at her house. By then, she was already home.
The moment I opened the door and stepped in, I was greeted by the sight of Natalie cheerfully washing fruits and John sitting on the couch in the living room.
Upon seeing the scumbag, my wrath flared at once. How dare he show his face here?
Just when I was about to lay into him, Natalie spotted me and quickly ushered me in.
“You’re back, Anna? Quick, come and have some fruits. I bought a lot on my way home.”
Coming over to me, Natalie took my arm and dragged me into the house.
At that moment, John had also caught sight of me. The look in his eyes as he gazed at me was smug and defiant.
As she pulled me into the house, I pointed at John on the couch and turned to her with barely restrained anger.
“Why is he here? Didn’t I say I’ve got something important to tell you? Why did you bring him home?”
Initially, I was going to tell her that he was a scumbag. But now that he was here, I was truly caught in a difficult position.
