Chapter 153 Being abandoned

Although the woman was wearing a cheongsam, her skills were agile. Before Natalie could react, she suddenly bent her knees and stepped forward, her outstretched legs lightning fast, with Inexplicable sharpness and malice.

Her movements were smooth, and the sound of wind accompanied her movements. Natalie couldn’t dodge and obediently closed her eyes.

The wind suddenly stopped, but the expected pain did not come.

Natalie opened her eyes.

In front of her was a robust figure.

Hugh directly grabbed her exhausted foot with one hand. There was no expression on his face, as

if he couldn’t feel the pain.

Natalie blinked. Being alone for so long, she almost forgot that Hugh was still standing behind her.

With Hugh present, at least her life would never be in danger.

The woman frowned as she saw the situation, exerting even more force, wanting to kill Hugh.

But the man was clearly motionless, his eyelashes trembling, and then his wrist extended like lightning, tightly clasping the woman’s hand.

There was no sense of pity for women.

After clamping down on the woman, Hugh quickly twisted her ankle in the opposite direction, and

the force made the woman feel a pang of pain.

While the woman was panicking, Hugh kicked out with his right foot on her knee. His speed was

too fast, and the woman was caught off guard when she lost her balance and fell half a meter

away.

Natalie saw the woman who had fallen to the ground, and there was clearly blood flowing out of

her mouth. Natalie was surprised and she couldn’t help but look at Hugh. Knowing that from a special forces background, he was naturally very skilled in combat.

But at first glance today, it really shook her.

The woman struggled to stand up and continue to kill Hugh.

A slightly aged voice stopped her and said, “Hannah, step back.”

Hannah stopped immediately when she wanted to take action, but it was obvious that she still

showed reluctance and stared at Hugh angrily.

“Step back.” The old man repeated again, the majesty in his words self-evident.

Hannah finally withdrew her gaze and reached out to wipe the blood from her mouth, standing obediently aside.

Upon seeing this, Natalie also said, “Hugh, you should also stand back.”

Hugh retreated.

The dean slowly walked up to Natalie and said with a puzzled tone and a hint of dissatisfaction

with being offended, “Who are you?”.

Natalie was certain that if it weren’t for Hugh’s performance just now, he would definitely have

kicked them out directly.

“I am Julian’s wife, and my name is Natalie.” Natalie leaned forward and spoke softly.

It was originally her impolite behavior of breaking into his residence without saying hello, and she should have spoken more politely.

“Humph.” The dean’s eyes instantly changed when he heard that she was from the Graham family.

“You’re a member of the Graham family, no wonder you’re so impolite! Breaking into a house.

without permission will result in being arrested.”

“Go out! Otherwise, I’ll call the police.”

Natalie was even more certain of her own thoughts when she saw the dean’s actions like this. It

seems that Julian really offended Hazel International Hospital, otherwise the dean wouldn’t have

driven her out as soon as he heard the name.

And his tone was so excited.

She looked up at the old man and said, “I came to see you today for something else.”

“Even if something else, you should go out!” The dean was clearly impatient. “If you don’t leave, don’t blame me for being impolite.”

Natalie didn’t move.

“A dishonest family still wants to talk to me about things and it’s impossible. Do you really think Hazel International Hospital is easy to bully?”

“Not keeping promises?” Natalie grabbed the key point of this sentence, “When did the Graham family break their promises?”

“You don’t know?” The dean said in a puzzled tone, clearly incredulous. But after half a sound, he reflected again, “It’s true. Julian naturally wouldn’t say anything about this.”

“I’ll do it!” The dean spoke in a resentful tone. When he mentioned this matter, he became angry. “Your husband came to negotiate cooperation with a fake authorization.”

Fake authorization? Natalie understood in an instant.

So it was because of this.

Natalie covered her mouth, looking surprised. “He’s holding a fake authorization? How could it be

possible?”

“Humph, why not? Ask your husband yourself. It’s really embarrassing.”

Natalie secretly agreed in her heart that Julian’s behavior did indeed cause harm to the Graham

family. However, was Julian doing less to cause harm to the Graham family? Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

She smiled sarcastically, then continued to maintain the gentle image of Mrs. Graham, and her face continued to remain surprised.

The dean looked at Natalie’s surprised expression and spoke impatiently, as if he didn’t want to

see her for a moment. “Go out.”

Natalie still didn’t move.

She tentatively spoke, “Do you still plan to cooperate with the Graham family?”

“Cooperating?” The dean clearly felt amused when he heard this. “You’re really shameless. Why

aren’t you embarrassed?”

“Go back and tell Julian that Hazel International Hospital cooperates with any company in Los Angeles except companies like Graham Group.”

Natalie was secretly pleased to hear this, and Hazel International Hospital really didn’t plan to

cooperate with the Graham family! That means the matter with the Lance family was settled!

“That’s good.” Natalie said as the dean was angry.

“That’s good?” As expected, the dean’s face showed confusion.

When Natalie saw the dean’s gaze shift, she took the opportunity to speak, “You didn’t cooperate with Graham Group, and it’s the right choice.”

“Oh?” The dean’s eyes flickered as he heard this, and he also added an exploration.

“What do you mean? Shouldn’t you be sad if Hazel International Hospital doesn’t cooperate with

the Graham family?”

“Why should I be sad?” Natalie shook her head and said, “It seems you don’t know yet. I’m going to

divorce with Julian.”

“Julian’s lover returned, and I was instantly abandoned by him and kicked out of the Graham family.” She said, as if there were tears in her eyes.

It seemed as if she was truly heartbroken and could cry in the next second. Her appearance was truly a heartbreaking one abandoned by someone she deeply loved.

The dean frowned silently.

Seeing his expression, Natalie curled her lips. After all, she watched Niki perform for so long, and

her acting skills naturally became increasingly proficient.

Watch a few more scenes of Niki’s performance, perhaps her acting skills might even surpass

hers.

“So?” He was not interested in Julian’s private affairs.

“So, I am a person abandoned by the Graham family. If the Graham family is not good, I’ll be happy,

or I’ll be sad.” Natalie said this seriously.

“Hazel International Hospital is its largest cooperative hospital. If you don’t cooperate with it, it will

lose a major partner, which also means that it will be greatly affected.”

“So I am very happy about this. I wish the Graham family could go bankrupt,” Natalie said word by

word. “The enemy of the enemy is a friend.”

The words were spoken with sincerity, filled with hatred, making it difficult for the dean to

distinguish between truth and falsehood for a moment.

“It’s interesting.” The dean was clearly interested in this.

Julian’s wife was eager to see the Graham family to go bankrupt? It was really interesting.

He walked up to the wooden table in front of him and turned his head to order, “Hannah, come and bring us a cup of tea for our guest.”

As if feeling a bit good, he then added, “I want the best tea.”

After the dean finished this sentence, he waved to Natalie in a cheerful tone, “Come and sit down.”

Natalie took the opportunity to take her seat.

Hannah, expressionless, placed a cup of freshly brewed tea in front of Natalie. The familiar smell

of tea once again filled her nose, and Natalie finally remembered it.

This tea was what her grandpa often drank in the yard.

The dean picked up his tea and took a sip. “What do you want to say? Let’s talk now.”
