Get Boy

After seeing Natalie come to the car, Hugh didn’t even look at Jerry. He opened the car door for Natalie

directly.

“Bye.” Natalie gently held onto the car door, wanting to quickly see what was written in the contract and what

Graham was planning.

Jerry politely took a step back and nodded, “If I have a solution, I will contact you again.”

After Natalie sat down, Hugh started the engine and drove away from the Lance’s house.

Jerry stood in place and looked complex as he watched the black Maybach leave. Behind him came his

grandma’s voice, “Jerry, why didn’t you drive Ms. Spears back?”

Jerry turned his head at the sound and saw his grandma coming from behind, followed by a worried- looking

servant. The servant followed her step by step, speaking anxiously, “Madam, it’s cold outside. Please put on a,

shawl.”

Jerry frowned and strode over to take the pure wool shawl. “Grandma, it’s so cold outside, why did you come

out.”

Ann didn’t answer his question, but instead asked, “Why don’t you drive Ms. Spears back? It’s so late. She’s

not safe to go home alone.”

“Someone came to pick her up.” Jerry frowned, “Just take care of yourself. You don’t need to worry for others.”

“Someone came to pick her up? Oh, that’s a great relief.” Ann felt more at ease.

“So can you put on your shawl now? Let’s go back inside.” Jerry said as he picked up the shawl and tried to

put it over his grandma’s shoulder.

Before he could put it on her shoulder, Ann suddenly changed her face and said, “Who came to pick up Ms. Spears? Julian?”

Jenny, Mrs. Spears, had previously asked Ann about Natalie’s recent situation, and when Ann told Jenny that Natalie was trying to divorce Julian, she was particularly happy. Particularly, Jenny also hoped Ann to inform her if Natalie and Julian succeeded in getting a divorce.

“Has Natalle changed her mind about the divorce? Ann guessed in her mind.

‘If so, how do I tell Jenny about it?’ Ann felt a little torn.

“Natalie is Julian’s wife. Isn’t it normal for him to come and pick her up?” Jerry carefully draped the shawl Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

over his grandma and said in a casual tone.

“Normal? How can this be normal?” Ann became anxious, “You don’t know that Julian and Natalie are…”

“I know. They have divorced.” Jerry interrupted Ann. “Grandma, let’s go in. It’s time to go to bed.”

“How do you know the thing about Ms. Spears?” Ann was half pushed into the house by Jerry and turned her head as she walked, speaking loudly. “And their divorce has not been completely settled yet. Was it Ms.

Spears who told you about her divorce?”

“You don’t have to worry about it.”

Jerry and Ann entered the house one after another, Then Jerry turned to close the door and hinted at the

servant standing by.

The servant immediately leaned forward and closed the door tightly, then stood in front of the door to prevent

Ann from going out again.

Jerry watched the servant finish all this and then went upstairs.

“Hey! Jerry, where are you going? My words haven’t finished yet!” Ann quickly grabbed his arms.

“What else do grandma want to say? Grandma, are you not sleeping? It’s already very late.”

Recently, the break of the capital chain caused a mess in Eagle Group. Jerry had worked all night for several

days and managed to stabilize the situation.

Moreover, the break of the capital chain was not only related to Natalie but also closely related to Eagle

Group. He could not push all the work to Natalie. He must also work hard to find a solution as soon as

possible, so there was no time to chat with his grandma.

“The last question!” Ann pulled Jerry to the sofa and said, “Jerry, do you know Ms. Spear’s identity?”

Jerry was forced to sit on the sofa, pinching the bridge of his nose with a casual tone. “No,” he said, clearly

showing no interest in Natalie’s identity.

“I knew you didn’t know! I’ll tell you, Ms. Spear is way out of our family’s league. Even if there’s a one in ten thousand chance that our family is lucky enough to get in touch with her, she is quite out of our family’s

league.”

“If you like her, I advise

you to give up early.” Ann looked at Jerry seriously and advised.

Jerry Immediately withdrew his casual attitude. He knew that Natalie’s identity might be extraordinary, but Grandma’s words startled him. It seemed that Natalie’s identity was even more noble than he imagined.

After a while, he regained his composure and finally said, “I know.” Then he went upstairs.

Jerry sat in front of his desk, with a thick stack of documents on it. It had been almost an hour and he hadn’t turned a page yet.

He was distracted as he looked at the documents.

Natalie sat in the back and turned on the lights. The interior of the car was instantly bright as day. She then

opened the thick contract and began to read word for word.

Hugh had been a special forces soldier for many years and often driven off-road vehicles on rugged mountain roads, so his driving skills were very good. Natalie sat in the car without any sense of turbulence.

As time passed, she frowned because she didn’t find anything special after carefully reading each page.

Natalie felt very strange. She didn’t believe it was just an ordinary contract. She read the contract oyer and

over again, but still couldn’t find anything wrong.

But if it was just an ordinary contract, why did Julian force the Lance family to cooperate with him?

Natalie couldn’t figure it out.

“Ms. Spears, we have arrived.” A male voice came in her ear.

Natalie looked up her head and looked out the window. Unknowingly, the car had already stopped at the

entrance of the Greenlife villa. She twisted her eyebrows and then got off.

But as she had just taken several steps, she suddenly remembered that she had something to tell Hugh. She

quickly turned around to look for him, “Tomorrow morning you don’t have to…”

But there was no sign of Hugh. He had already driven away.

Natalie felt helpless. There was no doubt that Hugh was a good bodyguard, but he was so unique, and he

didn’t talk much. When Natalie talked to him, he never answered and only did everything well.

After a brief few days of contact with him, Natalie also gained an understanding of his temperament. In

short, as long as something can be accomplished through action, Hugh would never speak too much.

Moreover, He had strong mobility and never procrastinated, which was very similar to her. This was also the

reason why Natalie kept Hugh on her side.

Natalie looked at the empty doorway, sighed, and then turned to enter the villa. After a simple wash, she sat

on the bed and picked up the contract again.

When a problem could not be solved in one direction, people should look at it from another perspective. This

was Natalie’s consistent thinking path.

So she decisively chose a different perspective. This contract was to invite the Lance and Graham families to

develop a new drug. “Wait! What about the raw materials for this drug? As she thought, Natalie suddenly

realized the problem.

She quickly flipped over to the raw material page, and after she finished reading it, she finally understood.

This new drug almost overlapped with the medicinal materials required for the New Bleomycin Drug. Glory

Group had been controlling its authorization after the expiration of the authorization of the New Bleomycin Drug. Unexpectedly, Julian gave up struggling for the authorization directly and chose to counterfeit the drug

Instead!

Natalie frowned. She didn’t expect Julian to be so bold.

She Immediately picked up her phone, found Julian’s number, and dialed it.

The phone was almost answered in an instant. “Why are you up so late?” Julian’s deep voice came from the

other end of the phone.

Natalie raised her eyebrows and sarcastically said, “You didn’t sleep either.”

The sarcasm in her words was too obvious, and there was no reply on the other side.

After a while, the two of them spoke in unison, “Shall we talk?”

The unison of their words startled both of them
