"No..."
Natalie had just replied when Isaac Vaughn’s side was filled with Vanessa Grant’s anxious background noise: "Baby, what are you doing? You can’t! The doctor said you can’t be discharged yet! Don’t make trouble!"
"Isaac Vaughn." Natalie called him.
Isaac Vaughn, who was holding the phone to call her while getting dressed, stopped his movents instinctively when he heard her call his na, quietly waiting for her to continue.
"Thank your people, they really helped a lot today. If it weren’t for them, I might have had a very tough ti today."
Moreover, it would have been impossible to bring Cynthia Kendall out.
As Natalie spoke, she heard the sound of the car door.
She turned and saw Cynthia Kendall getting out.
Cynthia Kendall had tried her best to tidy up her appearance, but her pallor still showed a hint of embarrassnt.
"I’m going ho now. There’s nothing else on my side."
Natalie continued.
Isaac Vaughn understood she must have heard his mother’s words.
He exhaled, saying, "Okay, then can you promise to have them temporarily stay downstairs?"
This request was actually what Natalie needed most at this mont.
Since Matthew Beckett was determined to send Cynthia Kendall to the nursing ho, especially choosing a ti when Julian Beckett was not in the country, he certainly wouldn’t give up easily.
With Isaac Vaughn’s people here, Cynthia Kendall would be safer.
"Okay, thank you."
"Little Ear, you don’t need to be so polite with ."
After hanging up, Natalie led Cynthia Kendall upstairs.
As soon as they entered, a small figure darted out from inside the house, excitedly opened his arms to hug Natalie, calling crisply, "Sister!"
Jordan Rivers called out only to find Cynthia Kendall beside Natalie. He recognized her as the fierce but beautiful auntie he had once seen in the mall.
He imdiately hid behind Natalie, timidly not daring to show his face.
Natalie reached out and gently rubbed his hair in comfort.
Cynthia Kendall said in a flat tone, "You actually brought him back? Having a soft heart is a fatal issue, it will only drag you down."
"If I weren’t soft-hearted, I wouldn’t have gone to The Beckett family to find you."
Natalie responded with the sa flat tone, pulling Jordan Rivers inside.
Cynthia Kendall paused for a mont, and then her face turned very unpleasant.
She stood at the entrance for a full two minutes before stepping into the living room.
Natalie told the temporary nanny to finish her shift.
The temporary nanny had already cooked the al, but since she didn’t know there would be an extra person today, she had only prepared for two.
Natalie asked Jordan Rivers and Cynthia Kendall to eat first, and she went into the bedroom.
Not long after, Jordan Rivers knocked on the door to find her.
"Sister, is that aunt going to live with us? Will she stay for a long ti?"
Natalie countered, "Is there a problem?"
Jordan Rivers lowered his head, rubbing his fingers, "I... I’m a bit scared of her."
"Jordan Rivers." Natalie called him to lift his head, looking into his eyes, she said, "You had nowhere else to go, so you ca here. She also has no place to go, so she ca here too."
Jordan Rivers’s face flushed imdiately red, clearly feeling ashad for the words he spoke earlier, both implicitly and explicitly driving her away.
"I’m sorry, Sister, I was wrong."
Natalie acknowledged him with a sound and told him to go out and finish his al.
Jordan Rivers left, dejected.
Natalie tidied up then ca out, seeing Cynthia Kendall still sitting on the couch in the living room, not having eaten.
She asked, "Do you want to take a shower?"
Cynthia Kendall looked up, t her gaze for a mont, then got up.
After bathing, Cynthia Kendall changed into the clothes Natalie prepared, sat on the bed, and began to idle, while Natalie ca in.
Straightly, she asked her, "Why does he insist on sending you to the nursing ho? Do you know sothing?"
