Feel the Way You Feel, My Love

Chapter 1373

Shane nodded, "That's good to know."

Silas left after that.He waited in the car outside the villa for a while until Shane made his way over.

After that, they left to inspect the company.

The family of four left the house together after they had their breakfast.

They parted ways at the entrance of the villa, where Shane got into Silas’ car and left early.

Natalie took her kids and left them with the driver, who was responsible for dropping the kids off.She waited until the driver had left with the kids before she got into her own car and left the Thompson villa.She had just sat down in front of her computer at work and had just turned on the computer when her phone rang.

The poor lady never even had the chance to begin working.

Natalie didn't check the screen of her phone.She picked the call up right away.

"This is Natalie"

"Nat," said Caitlin on the other end of the line.

She sounded terrified, and her voice was thick with tears.

Natalie stiffened and sat up immediately.

"Mrs.Rivers? What's wrong?"

"Nat, it's Joyce.S-She..."

It sounded as though Caitlin was dealing with something terrifying.She stuttered so much that she couldn't even get a full sentence out of her lips.

Natalie frowned and advised, "Calm down, Mrs.Rivers.Slow down and tell me what happened to Joyce."

Caitlin, who was crying too much on the other end of the line, heard what Natalie said.

The former knew that she couldn't keep crying like that because she wouldn't be able to say anything under those circumstances.

Hence, she took a few deep breaths and calmed herself down.A few seconds later, Caitlin managed to force a bit of sanity back into herself and said, "Joyce cut her own wrist? "What?"

Natalie was so shocked that she sprang up.

That movement was so sudden that she accidentally tipped over the cup of coffee on her desk, causing it to flow all over the table.

The blueprints sitting on the desk were ruined.

However, Natalie couldn't be bothered about any of that anymore.She gripped her phone.

In a trembling voice, she asked, "Mrs.Rivers, a-are you talking about suicide?"

"Yes,'' answered Caitlin while nodding as her heart ached.

Natalie felt her vision going dark.Her entire body swayed, and she almost fell onto the floor.

Fortunately, she reacted quickly enough and managed to put her hand on her desk to support herself.

That was the only reason she didn't fall to the ground.

"H-How did that happen? W-Why would Joyce do that to herself?" asked Natalie.

She had turned pale, and the glow in her eyes had become dimmer.

"I don't know either, '' replied Caitlin between sobs.

"Everything was fine this morning.We had breakfast together, and Joyce smiled when she walked me and her dad out of the house.My husband and I suddenly remembered that we forgot our wallets, so we went back.That was when we saw Joyce in the bathroom with an open wound on her wrist."

Natalie's heart thumped fast.For a moment there, she couldn't get herself to calm down.

"Is she...?"

Natalie couldn't bring herself to finish that sentence, but Caitlin knew what she was talking about.

The former was asking if Joyce was already gone.

Caitlin wiped her tears off her face and shook her head. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

"No, she's not gone.She survived.We returned and found her in time, so we call the emergency line.The ambulance came to take her to the hospital quickly, and she survived.However, she is still unconscious."

Natalie sighed a huge breath of relief when she heard that.

"That's good.Thank the heavens."

Natalie tapped her chest to calm herself down.She truly worried that Joyce would be gone just like that.

At that moment, the only mystery left was why Joyce would try to commit suicide in the first place.

"Mrs.Rivers, are you in the hospital in Baycoast now?" asked Natalie.

Caitlin nodded, "Yeah"

"Okay, then I'll head over right now," replied Natalie.

After that, she hung up the call and picked up her bag before moving out of her office.

When she was out of her office, she waved to her assistant, who was working in front of the printer at the time.

"Lily"

"Ms.Smith, were you calling out to me?" asked Lily when she heard Natalie's voice.

The former put her work aside immediately and went to the latter.

Natalie pointed at her office and replied, "I spilled some coffee, so please help me clean it up.Also, please take care of the company for a few days.I need to go on a business trip."
