Chapter 19

"Jake, I heard that you fired Natasha from her job. What happened?" Jake thought it was over. The matter had been mentioned repeatedly those days, but he did not expect to be questioned that day. "There are some things that happened, but I have already told her to be modest." "We are family. How can a member of our family bully our families? Should we not help each other?" Jake had been taught a lesson because of the said incident, and he was getting a little impatient. "I already said sorry. What else do you want me to do? Do you want me to kneel down?" Maxine listened to the conversation and was shocked. Jake also apologized to Natasha? Why and who was Natasha? What qualifications did she have for Jake to apologize? And why did the member of his family care for Natasha so much? What was so good about Natasha? "Because Natasha was fired for such a small thing, was it worth making Jake like this?" She thought. Then it seemed that Natasha was more popular with the Busch family, while Jake was like an outsider. Maxine could not believe her ears. What did she hear? "Jake, do not do this again in the future. Natasha is your aunt and your elder with regards to position. You need to respect her. If I ever know again that you did something to her, you will hear from me." When Jake heard what he just said, he felt particularly harsh. He then glanced at Natasha. Natasha cleverly sat next to Edward for dinner. Jake suddenly felt so small. When Maxine heard them, she figured it out. Natasha was Jake's little aunt, and now, Edward's wife. With that thought, Maxine felt that she must have misheard. How could Natasha be Edward's wife? That was ridiculous. She thought Natasha had no money to go to school. She would definitely leave there, and she would never see her again. In addition, she did not need her to do anything for her. But that time, she knew that Natasha was Jake's little aunt. After she married Jake, she would never call her aunt in the future. It is terrible. How could this happen? That was what she thought to herself. When Natasha went to the bathroom, Maxine felt that the opportunity had come, and she must ask what happened and why it came to that situation. Natasha was blocked by Maxine as soon as she left the bathroom door. "What do you want?" Natasha looked at Maxine. She knew that Maxine would come to find her, but she did not want to face her right at that moment, and she did not want to explain things to her. "Natasha, how do you know Edward? What is going on?" "Why should I tell you?" "You must tell me, or you will not be able to leave today." "Do not try Maxine, do you think this is your home? This is the house of Edward's family. Do you think you cannot let me go?" "Natasha, how do you know Edward?" Maxine lost her momentum in an instant. Seeing Maxine like that, Natasha suddenly felt that she was fine already. Originally, she married Edward for her own tuition, now looking at Maxine flustered, she suddenly felt very happy. "I did not have enough money to go to school at the beginning, so I had to obey the arrangement of my family and get married. Now it is like this." "No way, how can your parents know people in the Busch family? You must have lied to me." Maxine still knew what the Quinn family was like. Even if Edward was in a wheelchair, her family could not know people from his family. That was just absolutely impossible. "Even if I lied to you or not, why does it matter? You'd better mind yourself." Natasha said, and left Maxine standing by the door. Back to the dinner table, Edward placed Natasha's favorite dishes into her bowl. "Eat more. These are your favorite foods. I have requested them for you." Jake looked at the scene and felt extremely dazzling. Soon, Maxine came back. She sat gracefully next to Jake. Looking at the interaction between Natasha and Edward, she said, "The relationship between Uncle Edward and Natasha is really good, and it is really a special love." Hearing Maxine's words, Natasha felt tight in her heart. She would never say those words so simply. Edward had been paying close attention to Natasha. Just after Maxine finished speaking, he felt that Natasha was nervous all over. The reaction was definitely not the state between good friends. Suddenly Edward remembered that before, Natasha cried and was very sad and asked herself why she was betrayed. Penny looked at Edward and Natasha, and she never thought that her younger brother would have such a day. "Yes, it is really special, special love." Maxine had a plan in her mind. "In our school, back then when I was going to school, she was smart. Especially excellent. I used to ask her to help me talk about our homework."
