Chapter 155 It was just her pretence.
Natalie stared at the two people in front of her in a daze, and at this moment, her heart was filled
with terrifying waves.
Why was it so coincidental? Why did they show up at this time?
Although she was dissatisfied with some of the things Julian had done, it had nothing to do with
the Graham family.
She could still distinguish the difference between Julian and the Graham family.
She was very clear in her heart that her feelings for the Graham family had not yet reached the level of hatred…… After all, the Graham family was something that Henry has put in a lot of effort to protect, although she disliked what the Graham family had done in her heart.
But for the sake of Henry’s face, she would never hate the Graham family to the point of having
them cornered. All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
She just said that kind of thing because only by saying that could the dean of Hazel International
Hospital be willing to help the Lance family….. She had no option but to say so.
Linda’s face turned pale, and Natalie could see that she was fairly excited at the moment. Because not only did she turn pale, but her legs trembled and she could hardly stand steadily.
Natalie’s mind went blank when she saw Linda like this.
Although her mind was completely void, she couldn’t ignore Julian’s strong sense of existence.
She could even feel the chill emanating from Julian standing behind Linda as well as the cold gaze of the man staring at her.
But Natalie couldn’t care what expression Julian, who was standing behind Linda, had on his face
at this moment.
She didn’t care about watching Julian’s movements at the moment… because it just didn’t bother
her.
She didn’t care about Julian’s opinion at all. Compared to him, Linda’s opinion of her was more important to her.
After all, in Natalie’s heart, she considered Linda as important as her mother…….
Linda must have heard every word she just said, right……? She must be very sad, right……?
Hearing with her ears the heartless words spoken by her daughter-in-law whom she had always
believed in…… How could she not be sad?
“Natalie, look at me.” Linda managed to stabilize her mind and spoke trembling.
Natalie placed her gaze on Linda with difficulty, “I……
She wanted to explain, but couldn’t argue.
“Do you hate the Graham family?”
N
Linda’s exceptionally gentle eyes were now filled with panic and an indescribable vulnerability.
“Of course, she hates us.” Julian’s tone was extremely cold.
Julian stared fixedly at Natalie and spoke word by word.
Every word and sentence was fiercely engraved on Natalie’s heart…….
“I’m not asking you. Let Natalie say it herself!” Linda scolded Julian who was behind her.
“I…”, Natalie felt as if 100000 ants were crawling in her throat, making it difficult for her to make a
sound.
If she told the truth at that moment, it was like she was telling a lie to the director of Hazel
International Hospital just now.
With the temperament of this dean, if she admitted to lying to him, he was even less likely to help
the Lance family…….
But if she didn’t explain, Linda would be upset… hearing herself say such harsh things firsthand.
And wasn’t this indirectly acknowledging Niki’s words? Linda used to trust in her so much and
refused to believe Niki’s words at all. Now this situation was embarrassing
Natalie’s emotions were stretched to the limit, and she couldn’t say a word for a moment as if she
was tossing and turning her bowels.
“It’s okay Natalie. Just be bold and tell the truth, I would like to hear your heart.” Linda’s tone was
very gentle.
So incredibly gentle, even beyond one’s imagination.
But the gentler Linda’s voice, the more uncomfortable she felt in her heart.
“…”, Natalie was preparing to speak with difficulty.
a
The dean’s cheerful voice interrupted her, “Look at me, I’ve forgotten that there are still
distinguished guests in the room next to me!”
The dean of Hazel International Hospital walked between Natalie and Linda, looked at Natalie with
a tough face, and then at Linda with a sad face.
He touched his white beard, his face unpredictable.
“Hannah, why didn’t you remind me?” The dean seemed to blame his assistant, then turned to
Linda and said, “Mrs. Graham, what can I do for you today?”
Linda didn’t even glance at him, her tender eyes stubbornly fixed on Natalie, as if she had to wait
for Natalie to tell the truth in person.
Seeing that Linda didn’t pay any attention to him, the old man wasn’t bothered either. Instead, he looked at the two people around him with interest. The atmosphere around them was inexplicably
weird.
After some time, he spoke with confusion, “What’s the matter? Is there something contradictory. between you two?”
Although it was in a puzzled tone, the words reached Natalie’s ears sounded all filled with a sense of schadenfreude as if he was enjoying watching a drama.
“No need to wait for her to explain,” Julian utter from behind in a cold voice.
“Isn’t she just thinking about how to argue after being silent for so long?”
Julian was in a suit, standing behind Linda, with one hand half inserted into his pants pocket, and
his gaze fixed on Natalie with an aloof and stern expression.
His gaze passed through Linda, the dean of Hazel International Hospital, Hannah, and Hugh in
front of him, sweeping straight towards her.
Natalie heard the sarcasm between the man’s lines but she remained silent.
“She’s not such a person… ” Linda muttered to herself.
“She hasn’t found any excuses to argue yet. You’re forcing her to speak up, aren’t you pushing her into the pickle?”
“No, I’m not.” Linda shook her head repeatedly. “How could Natalie be such a person? She’s a kind- hearted child, I don’t believe it……”
“You said that because you have some grievances, right, Natalie?” The woman’s eyes were already filled with some pleading.
There were too many emotions in the woman’s eyes, and Natalie couldn’t bear to look at her anymore. She could only turn aside.
Julian watched this scene coldly.
‘Previously, she confidently stated that she had done a lot for the Graham family and looked very considerate… What about now?’
‘All of this is just her pretence.’
Julian sneered.
‘The hatred in heart cannot be hidden, can it?
“Julian?!”
The dean of Hazel International Hospital just saw Julian standing behind Linda, and his expression of appreciating a play just now instantly retracted.
He had long known that Linda was staying in the next room and could see Natalie and hear what Natalie was saying at any time.
But he didn’t care.
Everything that happened was planned by him intentionally because he wanted to see the drama.
The conflict between the Graham family’s mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was so complicated that he happened to have fun watching them
But he didn’t expect that Julian would also be there!
“Mrs. Graham, why didn’t you give a shout that Julian would come with you?!” The old man. recollected that Julian came to Hazel International Hospital with a fake authorization but the lie was exposed by him on the spot.
After this, what encouraged Julian to come to him?!
He didn’t imagine that the president of the Graham Group was so shameless!
The old man’s words were filled with anger, indicating a strong resistance to Julian’s appearance.
If I had known that you had brought Julian, I wouldn’t have let you enter the gate of Hazel International Hospital!” He became more furious as he spoke, and in the end, he had an impulse to immediately kick out the man in front of him.
Jullan glanced faintly at him in the direction of the sound.
“Are you still angry about what happened before?”
Julian’s voice was neither friendly nor indifferent.
“Do you know who the woman standing next to you is?”
The dean of Hazel International Hospital glanced at Natalie and spoke impatiently, “Of course, I
know she’s your wife.”
“No, you don’t know.” Julian rebutted him without mercy.
“What? You’re unhappy to hear that your wife says she hates you and wants to knock you down,
and you can’t afford to lose face, so I chose not to recognize your wife?” The dean sneered.
Julian’s face remained expressionless. He wasn’t provoked by the dean.
He lifted his eyelids and looked at Natalie, slowly speaking, “She’s Dr. Nancy’s assistant.”
