Chapter 368 It Comes To The End Finally

Book:Billionaire's Pampered Wife Published:2024-5-1

“I hope that we see each other again in the future,” Natalie Wheeler said in a low voice. A trace of sadness flashed through her eyes, and there was a slight bitterness lingering in her heart.
She was unfortunate, but compared with Hale Summer, she seemed to be fortunate.
At least, she had friends, lovers, and her child. Even if they couldn’t be together, they still cared about each other.
Hale had been charged with treason when she was very young. She couldn’t go back home, and she couldn’t get along with people like a normal person. She had to run away and shoulder the burden all by herself.
Therefore, one should never complain about the situation they were in. Instead, they should learn to adapt to it and change themselves accordingly so that they could live their lives fruitfully. Because there would always be someone more miserable than they were in some corner of the world, still trying their best to live.
“Natalie, Natalie,” Eli Wayne called a few times and gave Natalie a push.
Natalie snapped out of her thoughts.
“What are you thinking about? You were spacing out,” Eli asked.
“Frederick is here,” Natalie said simply.
“B*stard.” Eli was indignant, “Hurry up and act lovey-dovey with Allen. Make Frederick give up on you.”
Natalie did not speak. She took out the crabs that were grilled by Jasper and put them on the leaves on her side.
Allen had also walked over to the fire. He put down the bucket and sniffed, “It smells good. All the hungry worms in my stomach have been woken up.”
“The ones on Eli’s side were grilled earlier. They are not that hot, so you can eat them now,” Natalie reminded him.
Allen sat across Natalie, grabbed a crab and peeled its shell.
Eli looked into the bucket and looked at Allen in surprise, “How did you find so many sea urchins?”
“There are a lot over there, but I have caught all of them. I’ve caught the grandfather, grandmother, and all their descendants,” Allen joked.
Natalie burst into laughter and said, “Should they thank you for bringing them together for a family reunion?”
“Some die an honorable death, while the others die for nothing. It’s a worthy death for them to end up in our stomachs. The other sea urchins should follow in their footsteps, ” Allen said with a smile.
Natalie’s smile widened a little, “Do you have a knife?”
“Of course.” Allen took out a Swiss army knife from his pocket. The knife was so sharp that the sea urchin was opened easily, exposing five pieces of yellow roe.
Eli searched about sea urchins while they were chatting, “Natalie, it is stated on Google that sea urchins are poisonous during their mating season.”
“The poisonous sea urchins are bright in color, and are usually found in tropical climates. The ones I’ve caught are all non-poisonous, so you can be rest assured that they are edible,” Allen guaranteed.
“It states that sea urchins are good for health, especially for men, but if they eat too much…” Eli didn’t continue and she looked at Natalie ambiguously.
Natalie understood what Eli meant.
She and Jasper had also eaten raw sea urchins by the sea. As a result, Jasper’s testosterone rose significantly.
“We’d better grill them as we don’t have any mustard here. If we eat it raw, we might ingest a lot of sea bacteria,” Natalie grabbed a few and put them on the slate.
Allen smiled slightly, but he did not stop her, “Was Mr. Milton here just now? Why did he leave so quickly?”
Natalie’s heart skipped a beat, but she didn’t say anything. Eli explained, “He was just passing by. He left after sitting for a while.”
“Oh,” Allen answered. The well-mannered man knew that he should not probe further on the topic. Hence, he started talking about philosophies in life.
He talked mostly on the things he had seen and heard all over the world, such as the Great Wall of China, Japanese Geishas, the savannahs in Africa, the pyramids in Egypt, the Bermuda Triangle, the Aurora of the North Pole, the altar of the Mayan culture, and so on.
Allen was a very eloquent speaker and he seemed to have seen much of the world. The way he talked made people feel amazed, sparking curiosity and wonder with his stories.
“You’re so young yet you’ve been to so many places!” Eli said enviously.
“When I was in college, I would travel to two places every year and stay in each place for a month. I still keep this habit now. I want to go to a hundred miraculous places in the world in my lifetime,” Allen said. He then looked at Natalie expectantly, “From now on, I won’t have to travel alone.”
Eli caught Allen’s hint and looked at Natalie with a smile.
Natalie brushed the hair on the side of her face and looked at Allen, “Some people like traveling, some people like fitness, and some people like playing games. I like to stay at family gatherings.”
Natalie changed the topic easily.
“All good things will come to an end in this world. In the end, the music will end and people will leave. It will be even more lonely after the bustle,” Allen sighed.
“Because of loneliness, people will look forward even more to the gatherings,” Natalie said with a smile. Her eyes were curved and they look more like a stream under the moonlight, reflecting the light and shining.
Allen also smiled.
There were so many beautiful views in the world that were worth it for him to have a look at. But up till now, there was still no place that he wanted to go twice. After appreciating them, he would continue to go forward.
If Natalie could be described as a kind of scenery, it would be an illusion.
In the illusion, he could see all kinds of wonderful and fascinating scenery all over the universe. It was so beautiful that he would never get bored of it.
She was the scenery that he wanted to turn back to enjoy constantly.
Allen got up and bent over next to Natalie. He kissed Natalie’s forehead and said softly, “I’m willing to hold a family gathering for you every week. This is a promise and not just empty talk.”
Natalie looked at him with a soft look in her deep eyes.
When Eli saw this, she stood up quietly and left immediately, giving them some privacy.
Natalie saw Eli leaving from the corner of her eye. She turned her head and looked at Eli’s disappearing back.
Allen sat down on the seat where Eli sat just now. He looked at Eli’s disappearing back as well and asked, “The relationship between her and Mr. Milton is not that simple, isn’t it? Were they lovers before?”
Natalie paused for a moment.
“No, but they knew each other before,” Natalie explained.
“They are very hostile to each other every time they meet. They looked like quarrelsome lovers. When they look at each other, there is a kind of tension in the air that could be felt by others,” Allen observed.
“Really? Hehe.” Natalie laughed and she did not speak any more. She looked at the sea in the distance and enjoyed the peace at the moment.
Allen approached her slowly and put his hand on her shoulder. With a little force, he made her lean on his shoulder.
“I was just wondering why Jasper was so kind as to tell me that you were on the beach. The view right now is so beautiful that I don’t even dare to look directly at it,” Frederick Addington said coldly as he casually walked over. His eyes were sharp as he stared at Natalie.
Natalie didn’t know why Frederick was angry. After she changed her identity, they should no longer have anything to do with each other.
“If you don’t dare to look, you could just choose not to look at it. Why do you still want to get closer and look at it? You are just making things difficult for yourself, aren’t you?” Natalie said bluntly.
“You’re still as sharp-tongued as before. You can’t change your character even if you’ve changed your appearance.”
