Chapter 901 The Hunter And The Prey Part Five
Before long, Natalie had her crystal needles accurately inserted into Jerry’s acupoints, and Jerry could feel the symptom of his asthma subsiding. Soon, the man realized he could breathe easier again.
It was only after seeing colors return to Jerry’s face that Natalie pulled her needles out.
“How did a waitress like you learn how to treat asthma?” If Jerry were not the person at Natalie’s mercy, he would not believe she could cure acute asthma with just a handful of inconspicuous needles.
“Do you want to hear the hard truth or the easy lie?” Natalie gave the man a half-smile before continuing, “If you want the easy lie, I didn’t.”
“You…” Growing up, nobody in the Jones family dared to defy Jerry because of his condition. Hence, he had no idea how to respond to someone as audacious as Natalie.
She was still packing her needles when Olivia finally found Jerry on the terrace.
After glancing at Natalie and his brother in disheveled clothes, Olivia immediately boiled with anger.
“Just what the heck are you up to? Flirting with my fiancé wasn’t enough for you? Now you have to seduce my brother too?” Olivia then stomped toward Natalie and lifted her hand, intending to give the woman a hard slap on the face.
Even though Jerry could not stop his sister in time, Olivia’s hand halted within inches of Natalie’s face.
“Let go of my hand!” roared Olivia at Natalie.
“Why? So you can slap me?” Do I look like I’m that stupid?” asked Natalie rhetorically as she narrowed her eyes at her attacker.
Natalie was only at the party to talk business with the Stones, so getting into trouble with the Joneses was definitely not what she expected.
However, it did not mean that she was just going to let the Joneses push her around.
“Who the heck do you think you are to talk to me like that?” questioned Olivia.
“Olivia, it’s not what you think.” Jerry hurried over to his sister after buttoning his shirt to explain, “I just had an asthma attack and realized I didn’t have my inhaler on me. She helped my condition with acupuncture.”
Olivia was slightly taken aback but still refused to believe her brother.
“Did she do something to you, Jerry? Is that why you’re trying to protect her?”
“I’m not! I’m telling you the truth, Olivia. I owe her one, so you can’t treat her like that,” replied Jerry earnestly.
However, he had no idea that his sister was already blinded by jealousy. Even when Amos was alone with Olivia, it was obvious to her that he could not stop thinking about Natalie, so she vowed to make the woman pay.
“Just admit that you’re lying to me, Jerry!” shouted Olivia. “I don’t even remember the last time you had an asthma attack, and now you come up with this ridiculous lie to protect her?”
“That’s not what I’m doing, Olivia.”
“I’m not listening to you!”
After glancing coldly at Olivia, Natalie released the woman’s hand before chiming in, “Your brother’s telling you the truth. Whether you want to listen to him is up to you. I’m only going to say this once, so you decide if you want to believe me. I’m not interested in anybody, man or woman, at this party.”
Natalie’s tone was cold and firm, leaving no room for doubts; Her facial features were captivating yet indignant.
Olivia was so startled by Natalie’s fierce look that she froze for a while even after the woman released her.
She only returned to her senses when Natalie looked away.
Like his sister, Jerry was stunned for a moment as well.
He had seen many ladies in his life, but none of them was even half the woman Natalie was.
Even though Natalie was dressed in a vulgar bunny costume, she exuded an aura so intense that anyone would think twice before messing with her.
