Jensen did not like hearing that at all. His expression darkened even further. "My relationship with Natalie is none of an outsider’s business! What is your relationship with her? That whole performance just now—you did that for Natalie to see on purpose, didn't you?" "Yeah, I did. What are you going to do about it?" Yulia shrugged indifferently, feeling not the slightest guilt for her malicious behavior. Jensen was so angry his eyes turned red. His hands clenched into fists, knuckles cracking. "Yulia, you’d better be glad you’re the young miss of the Gunn family. Otherwise, I would kill you today!" Jensen seethed through gritted teeth, his eyes filled with hatred. "Yulia, don’t think that you’re my only option. I admit, I desperately need this order from the Gunn family to stabilize my position in the Luke family. But you’ve seriously underestimated me! Without the Gunn family, it will just take me more time and effort. I, Jensen, don't need you!" With that, Jensen stormed off in a rage. After he left, Yulia just laughed, mocking herself. "Lucky to be the young miss of the Gunn family? If you knew what kind of place the Gunn family really is, you probably wouldn't say that." Yulia muttered to herself, then irritably pulled a slim cigarette from her purse, lit it, and took a deep drag. The strong smoke made her cough violently, so hard that tears streamed from her eyes, yet she started to laugh out loud. As she laughed, the tears kept falling. "I'm smoking again. Why aren't you here to scold me? Didn't you say you'd look after me for the rest of your life? Cough, cough..." Yulia coughed intensely. It was impossible to tell if it was from the smoke or something else, but she crouched by the side of the road, looking like an abandoned puppy.She didn't know who to call. All she knew was that she felt awful, so awful she could barely breathe. Yulia pulled out her phone, found that number she could never again connect to, and dialed it over and over. Listening to the cold, mechanical tone on the other end, her tears flooded out as if a dam had broken. Natalie knew nothing of this. After leaving the café, she didn't linger. She arranged for someone to buy the packaging boxes from the mall and send them to the studio, while she herself headed to the entrance of Baron's Grant International Holdings. Jensen didn't know where Natalie had gone, but since they were very close to her studio, he went there immediately. "Is Natalie back?" Jensen didn't recognize Beth, but he knew Renee. He ran straight to Renee to ask. Renee frowned, looking at Jensen's anxious expression. When Natalie was in love with him, Renee hadn't judged him too harshly. She had even heard that Jensen saved Natalie when she was eighteen and once thought he was Natalie's Prince Charming. Unfortunately, during Natalie's five years with Jensen, she was like a canary he kept in a cage; even making a friend involved a full interrogation. Renee had been dissatisfied with Jensen for a long time, but because Natalie was happy and enjoyed it, she couldn't say much, assuming it was just Jensen being overly protective. It wasn't until Jensen married Sharon behind Natalie's back that she realized he was just a scumbag. And now he had the nerve to come looking for Natalie? Renee slapped his hand away and said coldly, "Mr. Jensen, men and women shouldn't be so casual. I don't even have a boyfriend. Please show some respect." Jensen was annoyed by her words, but on account of her being Natalie's best friend, he suppressed his anger. "Fine. My apologies, I wasn't paying attention. Now, can you tell me if Natalie is back?""And I have to answer just because you ask? Does Mr. Jensen think this is a feudal society? Or do you really think you're the local tyrant of Ocean City?" Renee rolled her eyes, completely unafraid of him. Jensen had just been infuriated by Yulia, and now he was being snapped at by Renee. Truthfully, he was losing his patience. He wasn't a good-tempered person to begin with. "Renee!" Jensen's voice was low and menacing. Renee shot back, "What? You want to hit me? Let me tell you, there are cameras everywhere. You just try and lay a hand on me!" Jensen took a deep breath, trying hard to control his temper, but found he couldn't. "The day Natalie and I get back together, who do you think she'll choose between you and me? So, Renee, I advise you not to burn this bridge. We'll be seeing each other again. We had five years together. She was willing to donate a rib for me. Do you really think she could stop loving me in such a short time? That's ridiculous!"
