Chapter 940 Chase Her

Jerry scratched his head.

He wasn’t trying to disassociate himself from Natalie.

In fact, he would gladly accept it if Natalie was willing to marry him. After all, that woman was practically every man’s goddess, given her good looks, figure, and charisma.

However…

It was obvious that Natalie only treated him as a kid.

Chase her?

The thought of that seemed absurd to Jerry.

Seeing that his son was not even willing to give it a shot, Bridger said with a frown, “Why are you so pessimistic? You’re young and handsome; how can you be so sure you don’t stand a chance without even trying? It’s better to try and fail than never try at all, right? I think that girl—”

Before the man could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Olivia, “Dad, Jerry has just turned eighteen. Why are you asking him to go after a woman who’s so much older than him? Have you lost your mind because of your desire for money? He’s taking his exams two months later. He should be focusing on his studies right now!”

Olivia’s words stopped her dad’s imagination from running wild.

At the thought of Jerry’s upcoming examinations, Bridger kept quiet.

However, Jerry had a crease between his brows as he continued munching on his toast. He knew that his sister wasn’t really concerned about his studies. Rather, she just hated hearing Natalie’s name.

Just like that, the family continued their breakfast with an awkward atmosphere surrounding them.

After breakfast, Olivia drove Jerry to school before heading to the office.

In the car, Olivia had a grim expression on her face when she said to Jerry, “You must be really happy that the atmosphere was so awkward just now because I didn’t listen to you before.”

“Olivia… What are you talking about?” Jerry could obviously hear the sarcasm in the woman’s voice.

“Am I wrong?” Olivia yelled with bloodshot eyes. “When Dad told you to pursue Natalie, you didn’t seem too reluctant to the idea!”

With a hint of impatience in his tone, Jerry replied, “It’s true that I’m rather fond of her. Am I not allowed to like her? But I also know that she will never be interested in me!”

Taking a pause, he pressed his lips together and continued, “Olivia, not only is she a really nice person with an amazing personality, she’s extremely capable as well. She’s really not as bad as you think! I swear!”

The next moment, Olivia jammed on the brakes and the car screeched to a halt.

Caught unaware, Jerry jerked forward even with his seat belt on.

“Olivia! What are you doing?”

“Get out!” Olivia bellowed.

“You…”

“Get out of my car! Do you hear me?” Olivia repeated furiously.

“Fine!” As that was the first time his sister had flared up at him, Jerry was stupefied and got out of the car in a huff.

After Jerry left, Olivia slammed on the accelerator and sped off.

A myriad of thoughts ran through her mind while she drove.

She had not seen Muse’s newest design drawings.

However, given that she had bumped into Natalie at the designer’s house previously, she could guess who Muse had given her design drawings.

“Natalie…” Olivia uttered through gritted teeth.

What should I do? If Dream really manages to make its break in the jewelry world by using Muse’s design, Farrington Jewelry will definitely fare worse than expected for the new season!

“No… I can’t just sit around and do nothing… I can’t lose!”

Meanwhile, at the Nichols residence, Natalie had woken up early that morning.

She had started enjoying being an early riser, and her routine after waking up included preparing breakfast for the kids together with Emma.

Natalie mainly assisted while Emma held the reins. Being in the kitchen and playing a part in creating delicious breakfast dishes helped put Natalie in a better mood, temporarily allowing her to forget her sorrows.

“Good morning, Mommy!” The five little ones, who were already seated at the dining table, beamed brightly as they greeted their mother.

“Good morning!” Natalie carried the plates from the kitchen to the dining hall and said, “Breakfast is ready. Dig in.”

Gazing at Natalie’s back, Clayton frowned and said, “Have you guys noticed that Mommy seemed to have lost a lot of weight recently?”
