Chapter 1414 Always Believe in Her (1)
Back then, in order to frame her and ruin her reputation, Alice deliberately leaked photos to reporters and media. Those pictures were actually of Alice herself.
This matter had already been investigated and cleared up. She thought it was all in the past, but unexpectedly, it was being brought up again now.
Natalie felt helpless at this moment. She was innocent, but she couldn't explain it clearly no matter what she said.
Claire and Melissa were furious and wouldn't listen to her explanations at all.
And Adrian - he had lost his memory.
Natalie wasn't sure whether this man would believe her like he did back then!
She just didn't understand who had dug this up again after all this time.
Glancing around, Natalie noticed the smile on Andrea's lips. Andrea didn't seem afraid of being discovered by Natalie at all. She even looked at her with a smug, challenging expression.
Then Andrea instantly changed her expression, "Natalie, when Adrian gets here, let's see how you explain this to him! I really feel bad for Adrian! He treats you so well, and this is how you treat him."
Natalie understood now - it was Andrea who was behind this.
She hadn't expected Andrea to be so restless, still secretly playing these underhanded tricks.
"Mom, things aren't what you think."
"Then what are they, Natalie? What more do you want to say?"
Andrea fanned the flames from the side, "Adrian is blinded by you now and can't see clearly. Don't you have any feelings for Adrian? You're out there fooling around with other men behind his back... and even had an abortion!"
"Whether she has feelings for me or not doesn't need you to judge!"
Suddenly, a low, husky male voice rang out.
Natalie froze.
Then a man in a black suit hurried over. His eyes swept around, passing over Melissa and Claire's faces before finally landing on Andrea's face. "Andrea, please watch your words!"
Andrea hadn't expected Adrian to show up.
It turned out Jeffery had quietly called Adrian when he sensed the atmosphere was off.
Andrea looked hurt, "Adrian..."
On the side, Melissa backed Andrea up, "Adrian, I think you need to know what Natalie has done."
Claire was even more dissatisfied with Natalie now, "Adrian, don't blame Andrea. What Andrea said is true. As her husband, you need to know what your wife has done. She's been hiding it from you because she knows it's shameful. I never thought Natalie would be so improper... she's simply a disgrace to the Howard family!"
Natalie's face went pale, and she swayed slightly.
She clenched her fingers and looked at Adrian.
Actually, she didn't care how others misunderstood her.
As long as this man believed her, that was enough.
Adrian stepped in front of Natalie, "No matter what happened, Natalie is part of the Howard family. Mom, Aunt, the way you're speaking to her is somewhat disrespectful."
Natalie's pupils trembled slightly, reddening a bit. She looked up at Adrian's back. This man had such broad shoulders, as if he could shield her from any storm.
Andrea bit her lip, not expecting Adrian to protect Natalie at this moment.
But since Adrian was angry, Andrea could only put on an innocent and vulnerable expression.
"Adrian, why won't you ask what Natalie did?"
Adrian just pressed his lips together and said firmly, "Whatever she did, she's still Adrian's wife."
Andrea's eyes widened, and tears instantly fell.
Melissa frowned, "Adrian."
Claire was somewhat dissatisfied with her son, "Adrian, then look at these pictures." She handed over her phone.
The moment Adrian took the phone, his eyes narrowed.
Natalie bit her lip. She wanted to explain, but when she opened her mouth, no words came out.
