The Fate of a Prisoner

"Erlyn, Natalie and I just called off our engagement. I'm not in a good mood. Could you not discuss marriage for a while?"

"I know you're still worried because Doxia hasn't joined your family company, right? In reality, you don't have to worry about this. My father has a plan, and things will get better soon."

As long as the family could take all of Natalie's stock, there would be no worries in the future. But life is not that easy. Natalie fights for her legacy and resists stubbornly.

"Erlyn, you think I care about money?"

"Reynold, what happened to you lately?" Erlyn started to have a bad feeling in her heart.

Reynold's face suddenly changed, those pair of eyes became very cold.

"The last time we were together, you purposely lured Natalie into that empty house, didn't you? You wanted her to see the two of us in the same room."

Erlyn looked pale."Reynold, what are you talking about? I don't understand what you mean"

"And during that design competition, weren't you the one spreading the gossip that Natalie slept with her lecturer? Erlyn, how many lies have you told me? You're so cunning and weak, and you think you can keep tricking me?"

Facing Reynold's question, Erlyn stepped back, her eyes filled with panic.

"Reynold, Natalie is just that kind of woman. I'm not lying. You can see what she's been up to all this time. She purposely ruined my life in front of people, got my friends to throw eggs at me and ensured my reputation couldn't be restored. After all, Isn't she the one who ruined the future of our company? Why can't you see the rotten and cunning side of Natalie!"

Reynold looked at her coldly. "Erlyn, I've been going to your school for two days to investigate. I went to your friend Cindy and asked. Natalie is innocent, it all happened because you provoked her."

Erlyn's lie was finally exposed at this point.

In an instant, tears flashed in her eyes. Her expression became innocent again, and her voice was as soft as silk. "Reynold I'm sorry, but I have to. After everything that happened, I am the woman who gave my body and heart to you, right? My love for you will not lose to anyone in this world, please understand me."

Reynold furrowed his brows tightly. "Don't you realize it because of you! I misunderstood Natalie, and she will never forgive me."

"It doesn't matter, neither of those things matter. What matters is I have your baby in my belly, your flesh and blood are growing inside me. Your mother called me today. She told me to take care of my body to have a healthy baby. Reynold… maybe I did something wrong, but that's all I did so that we could stay together in this life. Will you forgive me?"

Erlyn was crying loudly, her voice soft and weak. "Reynold, if you can't forgive me, I'd rather die!"

When the words fell, Erlyn opened the window and wanted to jump down.

Reynold immediately restrained her. "Don't make trouble… I still have something to discuss with your father. I'll go first."

After leading Erlyn away from the window, Reynold turned and left.

Erlyn stood in the same place, staring at Reynold's back which was drifting away. A terrible feeling enveloped his heart.

Reynolds knew the truth.

All her tricks had been revealed, and now the ace in her hand was just a baby in her tummy.

As long as she maintained a good relationship with his mother, Reynold would fall into her hands.

…

It was night already.

Natalie has been locked up all day. She was now in the bedroom she had often used before.

The door to her room was locked from the outside, and she couldn't escape.

The bedroom window is also tightly closed.

However, at least the windowpane was transparent and she could see outside through it.

The living room of the Andersen family home is still brightly lit. William was still entertaining the group of relatives who had come. Her uncle's hypocrisy was still going on even though all faces were red from the wine.

They eat, drink, party as if there is no tomorrow. But he was left starving and thirsty in a place like this.

This group of people is so dirtier than trash.

But what will they do to her? Will she be left to age in this place? Or was she going to starve to death?

Luckily Natalie managed to buy time. Actually, she didn't leave a will at all, it was all a bluff.

Now the only one who can save her is Anthony.

However, Natalie had left David a message that she would be out late today. However, she didn't tell him that she was going to her family's house. So how could Anthony save her?

Natalie was surprised when suddenly her bedroom door opened.

The door closed again before she could answer, and it locked with a click.

Her eyes stared at the floor. There was a loaf of bread and a box of milk packed in a plastic bag.

It looks like it's dinner time.

She was so hungry that her stomach rumbled every second.

She immediately took the bread and put it in her mouth. She then took a straw, stuck it in the hole, and took a sip of the milk box as hard as possible.

After a few mouthfuls, a feeling of nausea suddenly surged up. Unable to control it, she rushed to the bathroom and threw up in the toilet.

She had vomited all the food and drink she had swallowed.

This group of inhumane people gave her expired food.

After throwing up, Natalie wasn't hungry anymore.

She went to the window again, she saw that a group of people were drinking in the back garden. Even she could see Reynold there.

Two days ago, she went to her company with flowers to apologize. Now she's just partying with those bastards.

Among them, there was Erlyn, who was smiling while following Reynold. The female figure didn't want to leave Reynolds, her whole body clinging to him.

That's very hypocritical. How could he like Erlyn?

As the night wore on, the banquet outside was finally over. The lights began to dim, and the whole house fell into silence again.

Suddenly, the door opened.

The figure appeared suddenly at the door. He then gently closed the door and came to Natalie's side.

He also carried a bowl of rice with a fried egg and fried chicken in his hand.

"Natalie, you haven't eaten all day. You can eat this!"

Reynold brought the food in front of Natalie.

Natalie pushed the food away from him. "Don't be nice in front of me. Get out of here!"

Reynold lowered his head and stared at the spilled food on the floor.

After a long time, Reynold raised his sad eyes and looked at her.

There was a spark of hatred in her fiance's eyes.

Yes, it seems Natalie still hates her.

"Natalie, can you give me ten minutes?"

"Hahaha, you think I can say no? Reynold, I'm sure you must be pleased to see me cooped up like this!" She looked at her scornfully.

Instead of answering, Reynold turned and stared at the wall.

There is a photo of the wall on the left side of the bed. He can also see if there are a lot of other photos inserted in it. This was a photo of Natalie when she was in school.

"Natalie, do you remember when we first met 14 years ago?" Reynold asked softly.

Natalie turned and said coldly. "No, I do not remember."
