In response, Natalie shrugged. “I just said that a dog was barking, but I didn't mention any name. You said that

yourself.”

“How dare you?” Jacqueline leaped up. Balling her fist, she swung it at Natalie's face. “You asked for it, b*tch!”

Natalie never expected her to be so easily provoked that she would lash out without warning, and her expression

changed.

Just as she was about to dodge, a tanned hand suddenly shot out from behind her and caught Jacqueline's fist

effortlessly.

Jacqueline's fist could no longer budge an inch, suspended in mid-air.

All that happened in the blink of an eye.

When Natalie realized what had happened, she gaped at the housekeeper in surprise. Never had she thought that

the woman would help her hold Jacqueline back.

The accompanying whistling sound earlier also showed its force. If the blow had landed on her, it would have set

her out at once.

Astonishingly, the housekeeper caught Jacqueline's fist effortlessly. Jacqueline could neither punch it forward nor

pull it back, and her face flushed bright red from fury.

It was clear as day that the housekeeper was exceedingly strong and skilled, for she wouldn't have been able to

restrain someone so easily otherwise.

“Let go of me!” Jacqueline ordered shrilly after wrenching her arm a few times to retract her fist but to no avail.

The housekeeper regarded her coldly. “Miss, Sir instructed me to keep an eye on you and make sure that you don't

harm a single hair on madam. You went against his orders by getting physical with madam, so I've got no choice

but to restrain you and lock you in your room while waiting for Sir to come back and decide your fate.”

“What? How dare you?” Jacqueline roared, her face contorting into a mask of fury.

Sean actually gave such an order? Does he really care about Natalie that much? She injured him, yet he's still

protecting her! Does he not have any dignity?

She wasn't the only one surprised, for Natalie was likewise taken aback. She never expected Sean to order the

housekeeper to protect her when he left.

For a moment, she couldn't quite discern her feelings toward him. She felt both regretful and conflicted.

If there weren't any bad blood between him, me, and Shane, he would be a cousin I respect greatly. Alas, there are

no ifs.

“Why wouldn't I dare?” The housekeeper wrenched Jacqueline's arm to the back. “I work for Sir and obey him

alone. Even if I address you as Miss, you're not my boss. Therefore, I'm not going to listen to you. Now, please

come with me, Miss.”

While saying that, she escorted Jacqueline out of the dining room.

Jacqueline railed even as she struggled wildly.

However, the housekeeper wasn't at all moved. In fact, she expression didn't change in the slightest.

In no time, the dining room turned silent once more.

Natalie arched a brow, never having expected things to take such a dramatic turn that Jacqueline was taken away

by the housekeeper to be locked up.

She lifted her eyes and looked at the space Jacqueline occupied earlier. Disappointment inexorably swamped her to

see it empty.

The cell phone wasn't there.

Hmm, it seems that I've got to figure out an idea to get my hands on a cell phone. But just what way is there?

Drumming her fingers on the dining table, she fell into deep contemplation.

Soon, the sounds of footsteps drifted into her ears.

Natalie glanced over her shoulder. The housekeeper was back and flashed her a smile. “I'm sorry about the scare

earlier, madam.”

In response, Natalie shook her head. “Not at all. I'm just a touch surprised. Oh yes, you know fighting skills?”

The housekeeper's movement in restraining Jacqueline earlier was too swift, so it was rather impossible for her not

to know fighting skills.

The housekeeper didn't deny it either but nodded in affirmation. “Yes, I underwent orthodox training.”

“Training...” Natalie's gaze darkened a shade.

I wonder whether she trained with a security firm or the organization behind Sean. Anyhow, I'm more inclined

toward the latter.

Nevertheless, she didn't show it on her face, merely chuckling airily. “Oh, I see. I couldn't tell at all!”
