Requiem of a Broken Heart

Chapter 820:

Natalia had been raised by a very protective father, and she was shielded from the harsh realities of life. Her perspective was simple and straightforward, and she often wore her emotions on her sleeve.

“Natalia, tell me the truth. What’s with this jewelry?”

Panicking, the words just tumbled out of Natalia’s mouth.

“I’m so sorry, Rachel. I didn’t mean to deceive you! Brian and I both wanted to give you something for your birthday. I picked the jewelry, and he paid for it. He was worried you wouldn’t accept it if you knew it was from him, so he sent it under my name.”

Rachel quietly closed the jewelry box, then looked it over once again before handing it back to Natalia.

“Take it back to him and tell him I don’t need it.”

“Rachel…” Natalia trembled with fright. She wasn’t used to this side of Rachel. She reached out and clung to her arm.

“I know you’re angry, and you’re right to blame me. You can hit me, scold me—do whatever you want. But don’t act so cold and distant. I get more scared the colder you are.”

Rachel slowly freed her arm.

“I’m not blaming you, Natalia. I see you as a lovely, innocent girl. You’re like a sister to me. But I hope you won’t help him deceive me again. Brian and I are long over. I can’t accept something so expensive from him, even as a gift. I don’t want to owe him anything.”

Natalia nodded earnestly.

“Okay, okay. I understand. I’ll return it right away.”

It was then that Rachel noticed Natalia seemed to be conflicted about something else.

“Is there something else you’d like to tell me?”

“I… Well… Please promise you won’t get angry.”

“Just tell me what it is.”

“Yesterday, a client threw you a huge birthday party, right?”

“How do you know about that?”noveldrama

But the answer occurred to Rachel as soon as she voiced the question.

“That was his doing too, wasn’t it?”

“Rachel, I swear I had nothing to do with it. I was looking for Brian and overheard him talking to Ronald…”

“It’s fine, I understand. Thanks for telling me, Natalia.”

“Well, I’ll go return this now.”

Natalia was almost to the door when Rachel called her back.
