Chapter 45 Attending the banquet of the Graham family

When Natalie opened the door and came out of the lab, she saw that Ryan was sitting on the chairoutside. His whole body was lying inside slightly, but his head was slightly tilted to the outside. He wasover 1.8 meters tall and sitting on the slightly smaller chair, which made him somewhat cute.

Natalie slowly approached him in a low voice. With his lips slightly closed, and his eyelashes trembledfrom

time to time.

She thought that Ryan would go to do his own work after she entered the lab, but she didn’t expect thathe would wait for her at the door of the lab. she had been in the lab for a long time, but he had beensitting there

obediently….

Natalie didn’t know whether she should say that Ryan was too sincere or too stupid.

She looked at the man sleeping on the chair and sighed. She couldn’t let him sleep all the time. It mustbe very uncomfortable to be confined to a small chair.

She gently touched his shoulder. He had a light sleep. Almost as soon as she touched his shoulder, he

suddenly woke up.

“How’s it going, doctor?”. Because he has just woken up, he was a little dull.

“Everything has been solved.” when Natalie saw that Ryan had woken up, she straightened up andtook off

the mask on her face as she walked.

“That’s good. I’ll talk to the company later. They must be very happy!”

He knew that doctor call do it! And it was solved so soon!

Natalie turned her head and glanced at Ryan, who was following her closely. The corners of her mouthlifted into a smile. “You don’t have to follow me. You can just do your job.”

Ryan scratched his head and said, “I’ll walk you downstairs.”

It was not easy for him to see doctor. He just wanted to stay a little longer. Maybe when doctor went tothe new lab, she would call him come to the new lab again, but he didn’t know why he just didn’t wantdoctor to

leave.

Seeing that Ryan was so persistent, Natalie didn’t say anything more. She pressed the elevator button,and

Ryan followed her and carefully stood beside her.

The two walked to the car side by side.

“Here I am. You really don’t have to send me back, do you?” said Natalie with a smile on her face.

“No… I won’t.” hearing the ridicule in her words, Ryan felt a little embarrassed.

Then I’ll go first… Goodbye, doctor.” after taking a last look at Natalie, Ryan turned around and wasabout to

leave.

“Don’t move. I want to give you something.” Natalie stopped him when she saw that he was about toleave.

She opened the door and took out a well wrapped medicine bottle.

“This is for you. I’ve already prepared it for you. I’ve been too busy to remember it recently.” Nataliehanded the small drug bottle to Ryan.

“It’s for me?” Ryan was surprised and even a little flattered.

“Don’t you have a stomachache? This is specially developed by me. Try it. If it doesn’t work, I’ll take itback to

adjust.”

Before she married into the Graham family, Ryan was her assistant and had been doing experimentswith her.

She knew what she was like when she was doing experiments. As long as she started the experiment,she would care nothing but experiment. She wouldn’t eat, drink water or even sleep at the criticalmoment.

Ryan had been doing experiments with her all the time. Unconsciously, he looked like her. If he didn’tfinish. the experiment, he wouldn’t eat, and his stomach gradually became sick.

But all these were told by Philip… If he didn’t tell her, she wouldn’t know at all. She was insensitive tothe outside world when she did experiments.

“Okay, doctor’s work will definitely be useful.” Ryan took the bottle.

The doctor actually knew that he had stomach illness? He had always thought that he had concealed itwell,

and had never shown it

“I’m leaving.” Natalie, who had already sat in the car. Seeing that Ryan was a little stunned, she wavedat him.

Natalie’s car disappeared in front of Ryan. He looked down at the small bottle of the medicine andslowly

clenched it.

After waving goodbye to Ryan, Natalie was about to go home directly, but she received a call again.

She took out her phone and looked at the number. It was Linda,

She prayed in her heart that Linda didn’t call to persuade her not to divorce.

In fact, if Niki hadn’t made the matter known to the Graham family or to Linda that day, Linda wouldn’thave contacted her frequently all of a sudden. She inexplicably felt that there was a reason for Niki todo so.

She sighed and answered the phone, “Auntie, I’m Nana. Why did you call me? What’s wrong? Are you

again?”

“I’m fine. I’ve been in good health recently.” Linda said in a soft voice.

‘Did she really come to persuade her?’ thought Natalie.

Nana, how are you doing recently? What are you doing? I miss you.”

sick

“I’ve been living a good life recently. You don’t need to worry about me.” answered Natalie, trying toavoid the topic of divorce. She tried her best to be as cold as possible. If she still talked to Linda asgently as before,

she might inadvertently give her a psychological hint, which would make her feel that she still had aattachment to the Graham family.

“Well… I want to ask if you are free tomorrow…” Linda asked cautiously.

“Auntie, I’m very busy tomorrow. I really don’t have time.” Natalie refused without hesitation.

Linda understood what she meant, but she had to go on, “The Graham family will hold a banquettomorrow to celebrate Grandpa’s recovery from a serious illness. He asked you to come… You knowthat grandpa has just recovered, and I can’t make him angry anymore, right?”

“After all, grandpa doesn’t know that you are going to divorce with Julian. As his mother, it’s not easyfor me

to tell him on this good day…”

Natalie listened quietly without saying anything.

Seeing that Natalie didn’t say anything, Linda sighed, “Grandpa made only one request. Nana, for mysake, can you come to see grandpa tomorrow?”

“What’s more, it’s better for you to tell Grandpa in person what happened between you and Julian atthe banquet than me. After all, telling grandpa on the spot is easier for him to accept than he was told

by me. I’m afraid that grandpa will be angry after hearing the news…After all, he has just recovered.”

Pursing her lips, Natalie was a little hesitant.

Indeed, she hadn’t told grandpa Graham about her divorce with Julian.

“I…” she opened her mouth and hesitated.

“Nana, I know you’ve made up your mind to divorce. You just need to make it clear to grandpa thistime. I respect your choice and won’t persuade you anymore.” said Linda.

Natalie’s eyelashes trembled.

Then she should tell Grandpa in person? The old man had just recovered from a serious illness andsuddenly heard about his grandson’s divorce. Maybe he really couldn’t accept it?

Julian would definitely go with them. This time, she would bring the divorce agreement with her. Aftermaking it clear to grandpa, she would ask Julian to sign it in front of him.

In this way, there would be no connection between them anymore.
