Unfortunately, it would take more than a promise to keep Natalie calm. After she took a deep breath, she asked, “If
that's the case, are you indicating things will remain the same into the near future?”
As Shane went dead silent, Natalie closed her eyes and announced, “Alright, I guess I'll just play along with you.”
She hung up the call once she wrapped up the conversation. After she made her way back to her room, she shut
herself in and skipped her meal again.
Concerned, Mrs. Wilson headed upstairs and knocked on the door to check on Natalie. Natalie refused to answer
the door, but she reassured Mrs. Wilson she was fine.
Mrs. Wilson knew that wasn't the case when she heard Natalie sniffling in the room. However, she couldn't seem to
talk any sense into the weeping woman. Thus, she returned to the dining hall in despair.
Natalie, who was in a foul mood, had committed serious mistakes in several deals with different customers. She had
handed over the wrong blueprints to the wrong customers.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIf it weren't because Joyce managed to intercept the blueprints in time, things would spiral out of control soon.
Irked by the fact Natalie seemed to be in a daze in her office again, Joyce barged into Natalie's office and yelled,
“Nat, look at the silly mistakes you have committed over the past two days!” Truth be told, she was heartbroken
because of the things Natalie had to go through, which rendered her lethargic.
Slamming the blueprints on Natalie's table, Joyce reprimanded, “You have neglected every single instruction and
requirement of the customers! Not even the agreement that requires your immediate attention has been signed!
Your life is a mess! When are you going to pull yourself together?”
Staring at the stack of blueprints on her table, Natalie remained silent since she was the one at fault.
“Nat, you have always been our role model, but you don't even bother to dress up for work! Are you sure that jerk
is worth your time? Can you give yourself a break already?”
“Joyce, you won't get it—”
Joyce interrupted her and denoted, “What do you mean I won't get it? I have had my fair share of heartbreaks with
several jerks in the past, okay? At the very least, I'm still able to move on! It's not an excuse for you to torture
yourself!”
The weeping woman was about to say something, but she stopped at the last minute because she found Joyce's
advice reasonable.
I guess she's far more capable than me when it comes to handling the challenges in life. At least, Joyce has never
given up her career because of a man.
“Nat, why don't you take a break and gather your thoughts?” Joyce approached Natalie and held her friend in
between her arms, asserting in a gentle tone, “I can't stand you punishing yourself because of a jerk anymore. I'm
well aware of the affection you have for him, but you're not supposed to allow that to get to you. Since he's the one
at fault, he needs to bear the consequences of his decision.”
“The consequences of his decision?”
Joyce nodded and answered, “You don't have to play along with him if he's messing around with you! It's just a
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwaste of your time. He isn't the only man available, is he? If he refuses to patch things up with you, just file for
divorce with him and get into a relationship with someone else.”
Natalie chuckled because of Joyce's hilarious statements. She added, “Are you sure it isn't one of your
exaggerations?”
“How is that an exaggeration? You don't think things will be the same again, do you? Just put your misery to an end
as soon as possible! You can ignore your wellbeing, but can you forsake your children for a jerk?”
Natalie's eyes flickered when she recalled she was a mother of two. “Connor... Sharon...”
“See? You can't afford to drag Sharon and Connor down with you, can you? It's going to influence them! I mean,
hadn't you been living a great life without a man before getting married? You being a single parent isn't an issue at
all!”
She's right! I can't think of anything else to nullify her statements! Connor and Sharon will be the victims of our
strained relationship if things persist as it is!
It's time to make up my mind for their sake! With that being said, filing for divorce with Shane is easier said than
done!
Natalie placed her hands on her heart when she thought of filing for divorce with Shane. Her reluctance was written
all over her face as she couldn't bear to leave the man.
