Natalie sat across from Murray, smiling as she looked at him. Her beautiful eyes curved, and her smooth skin made her lightly colored, cherry–red lips stand out, vibrant and charming “Seeing me, are you disappointed or happy?”
Murray exuded a mischievous vibe. “Of course happy. You came to rescue me, and I’m genuinely happy about that!” His last words were spoken very earnestly, and the playful vibe toned down, showing a more composed demeanor.
“I warned you to be more careful, yet you still got caught. Other people learn from mistakes, but what about you?” Natalie knew he had been very careful. When problems arose at the branch, he had been busy dealing with company issues.
“Well. Even though I was on guard, I couldn’t escape their schemes,” Murray’s charming eyes turned dark and deep.
He suddenly raised an eyebrow, looking at Natalie’s smooth skin Her lips were beautiful, painted with a peachy gloss today, looking soft and perfectly kissable with her petite cupid’s bow.
Murray’s gaze deepened a bit. “If Jennifer finds out you came to save me today, she won’t make it easy for you.”
“Do you think I’m afraid of her? Besides, it might not even be her since there’s no evidence,” Natalie sneered as she watched the police arrive. She handed over a USB drive.
“Officer, we submitted a request earlier for some new evidence, and this USB drive contains it.”
Hearing there was new evidence, Murray gave a nonchalant glance at Natalie with a faint smirk playing on his lips and his eyes half–laughing.
His team searched every corner of the bar and found nothing. He was quite surprised that Natalie actually found the evidence.
Upon seeing the new evidence, the police immediately initiated an investigation.
The footage showed Murray talking with a few business partners at the bar. As the night wore on, several partners got drunk and left one after another. Two guys were completely wasted, sprawled unconsciously on the couch across from him.
Only Murray was left, lounging casually on the sofa. He was waiting for his assistant to bring the car when a middle–aged man quietly came in. Seeing Murray sitting on the sofa, the man gave a wicked smile and slyly slipped a bag into Murray’s bag.
A few minutes after he left, the police came in. Five people were still in the private room. They had indeed done something illegal in there. But when they searched Murray, they found the drug on him.
The police, upon seeing this video and the man who planted the drug on Murray, looked serious, recognizing him as a repeat offender.
“We didn’t find your fingerprints on the bag either. Once we verify the video’s authenticity, you can leave.”
The police left after speaking, and ten minutes later, Murray was released due to insufficient evidence and because it had been twenty–four hours.
Outside the police station, Murray raised his hands high, stretched lazily, and a smile appeared on his handsome face, adding a touch of charm. “At last, I’m free.”
He tilted his head towards Natalie, his voice sincere. “Natalie, thank you,” He was curious about where she got the evidence from, but sometimes it was best not to say certain things to keep the relationship strong.
Natalie truly cared about him, and in this world, it was rare to find someone like her.
His tall figure towered over Natalie, his eyes lowered, lashes quivering slightly, while a smile played on his crimson lips,

Natalie lifted her gaze and met his smiling eyes, her heart skipped a beat. He was truly captivating. It was obvious that he tried to entice her. Natalie thought he was really asking for trouble.
“Natalie, I’m hungry. Let me treat you to a meal.”
Natalie nodded with a smile. “Okay, you’ve been here for two days. Go home and get changed first.”
Murray looked around at himself and took a sniff, realizing he really did smell bad. “Alright, I’ll go back to my place to shower. I’m starting to find myself unpleasant too.”
“Okay. I won’t go with you then. I’ll just take a walk nearby. Call me when you’re done,” Natalie didn’t want to make another trip.
Murray didn’t want her to tire herself out either. He pointed to a street not far away and said, “Natalie, there’s a pedestrian street up ahead. Why don’t you guys check it out? I’ll find you in about thirty minutes.”
Natalie nodded. “Okay.”
With a smile, Murray walked away briskly.
Natalie and Luna headed towards the direction Murray mentioned.
The city was beautiful, with many seasonal flowers blooming along the road. Natalie really liked this place.
But she hadn’t walked far before Easton, coming out of the police station, blocked her path. Easton stood tall, casting a shadow over Natalie.
His presence was strong and intimidating, making Natalie step back, only then remembering Easton was also there. Frowning, Natalie looked at him and asked, “Do you need something?”
Easton’s deep eyes held hers. “When are you going back?”
Natalie shook her head. “I don’t know.”
“Come with me. I have a private jet.” His tone was firm.
Natalie laughed in frustration, “I remember you bought that private jet the day Jennifer came back. You once told me the jet was bought for Jennifer, and I’m not worthy to sit in it.”
Easton froze because he had really said that. “That statement no longer holds,” His voice was deep..
Natalie sneered, “But the harm is already done.
“Easton, there was a time when I had a lot of hope for you. Now suddenly understand that when you place too many hopes and expectations on a lover, you hand over your own happiness to them, as well as your right to love yourself.
“Now I realize that marriage is not a chain. It’s about mutual respect and tolerance. So I’ll let you two be together, and maybe I’ll be a little happier too.
“My love for you was once as intense as the sun, completely filling my heart. Seeing you upset made me lose my appetite and I couldn’t sleep either. That deep affection and longing made me lose myself for a while.
“That’s why I stuck with you for so long. But now I’ve learned to let go, so please don’t hold on to me,” She had learned to let go. She had truly loved Easton with all her heart.
She didn’t shy away from this topic. She was brave to say it out loud. Everything she did was because she loved him. Yet she endured so much unfairness.

Easton trembled as she took back her love for him. The harm was completely real. Easton stood silently in place.
Natalie walked away with Luna. She had her own plans tonight and couldn’t let Easton spoil them.
Xavier felt helpless. He thought, ‘What on earth have you done? Natalie took care of you in the past two years, and the’s not worthy to take your private jet? Jennifer spent billions of your money and you took her as a treasure?
At the Simpson residence, Jennifer received word that Natalie had rescued Murray. She vented her anger on Natalie and afterward, sent a message to the other side.
After sending the message, Jennifer had a mysterious smile, “Natalie, just be ready to meet your end.”
