Love’s Second Act by Alvis Midden

Chapter 21 

Natale’s hand, which was holding the poon trembled dightly She looked a Calvm feeling somewhat savest 

Before she could speak, Calvin 

tinued, “Withdrew the divorce law dately. When we have a child everything in the Jeffords family will be inherited by him 

So, his morning grumpiness was because he received news that the had not withdraw the draw 

ff Tawuột 

And be offered such a tempting enedition, ensuring she would not have to worry about other someti aitymore! 

Between them, it seemed they had finally reached the stage where Natalie had once found these manges in the prestigious family laughable, where everything was intertwined only with mone 

It seemed that she and Calvin enold ont escape it either. 

She took a sip of the malk in front of her and looked at the some shat sallow-faced min across her. No matter how handsome he was, he could not withstand the ravages of alcoher 

Your concession sounded laughable to me!” 

They looked at each other, starting the day with such tension and hostility 

Calvin looked at the disdain flashing in Natalie’s eyes and asked solemnly. “Have you seen all that evidence?” 

Ignoring Natalie’s remarks, Calvin asked her about the investigation done by Salvatore. 

Hearing his question, Natalie emitted a restrained aura, and her beautiful face radiated determination and dominance. She looked at Calvin with a chilly gaze and asked, “What do you mean? 

Was he threatening her? 

Was he using those information to threaten her? 

The two locked eyes once more, and Calvin finally realized the reality of Natalie’s determination to leave him. 

They had journeyed together from senior high to college and then into marriage. They had crossed numerous hurdles and weathered countless storms. How could he possibly allow her to leave now! 

“You are a very smart woman. What do you think I mean? Despite Natalie’s cold demeanor, Calvin had become oddly calm 

at this moment. 

When he received her divorce petition, he was shocked. 

He had not expected her to be so determined in reaching the point now. As he gazed at her stunning face, he realized she had lost so much weight without him noticing. 

It was also at this point that 

at he realized that he had not taken a good look at her for a long time. 

Especially when he saw the line wound on her face, he found it did not affect her beauty at all. 

“If I insist on the divorce, you will send me to prison, right?” Natalie asked. 

Is that so? 

She looked at him intently, not wanting to miss any change in expression 

But she failed. This man had been inscrutable to her since he took over Jeffords Group. 

Calvin, siting across her, finally said, “Do not force me.”

Chapter 

Natalie closed her eyes. 

Everything was just starting, Naturally, he would not agree to the divorce 

Even in her past life, he had never thought of divorcing her, even though he had taken away her re what she possessed that made him so persistent 

Their current marriage felt like a deal between them. A deal that was initiated because of Yvene’s abduc 

Those pieces of evidence were like shackles that bind Natalie 

Natalie lost her appetite and got up to head upstairs. As she walked, she said, “I wont withdraw the divorce lawsuit. As fo evidence. 

She paused and looked at the handsome man 

When their eyes met, a mischievous smile played on Natalie’s l*ps. “It’s up to you!” 

Calvin was speechless. 

Achill ran down his spine! 

Calvin did not know that he would not be able to see Natalie for a long time after breakfast, so he left directly after that 

He aimed to distance himself from Natalie as much as possible. Every time she broached the topic of their divorce, he was overwhelmed by an intense urge to strangle her. 

An hour later, Natalie packed up her things and received a call from Brianna. “Nat, I was at the hospital visiting a friend just now, and Calvin came to the hospital. He’s been in Yvette’s ward and hasn’t come out.” 

Natalie remained silent 

Brianna continued, “What’s with him? He doesn’t want to divorce you on one hand and yet get entangled with another woman on the other. What right does! 

she have not to divorce you?” 

Brianna’s tone was filled with indignation on Natalie’s behalf. 

She was worried before. She was wondering how Natalie would cope if she left Calvin. Now, it was clear that every moment spent with the man was torture. 

Natalie listened to Brianna’s words quietly, her heart unmoved. 

“Nat, are you listening?” 

Tra listening! 

Tm telling you My gut feeling tells mor that as long as Calvin does not agree, it will be difficult for us to win the lawsuit over your marriage” 

Natalie’s b*dy stiffened! 

an she and Calvin had a slim chance of getting divorced? 

able separation between then was out of the question, and even a courtroom battle would not 

work. Was she really shut entangled with this mant 

Belania’s instincts as a lawyer were remarkably accurate. After all, men like Calvin from a promines family like the Jefforda family would sufer a significant impact if they were divorced 

Otherwise, the jeudi bmily would not have gone to such engils to prevent Calvin from marrying Natalie in the first place, as over they got married, getting a divou sould
