Chapter 164: Tears, lies, And a Heart of Fire Novel

Chapter 164 Call Me Natalie Stone The man at the front spoke quickly . Natalie froze for a moment . " The Stone family ? " " Yes , Mr. Waylon and Mr. Flynn . The Stone family still hasn't completely rooted out the traitors within , but here in Ocean City , everything is secure . Mr. Waylon said whatever you want to do , the entire Stone family stands behind you . And ... Mr. Waylon wanted to ask if you'd be willing to change your name to Natalie Stone . " As soon as the words left his mouth , Baron waved , and the man was brought directly before Natalie . " Miss , hello .

My name is Chris ; I'm the Stone family's representative here ." Natalie gave a small nod . " You say you're with the Stone family . Do you have proof ? " " I'll call Mr. Waylon on video right now ." Chris quickly dialed Waylon's number . Moments later , Waylon's face appeared on the screen . " Natalie ... " He hadn't even spoken more than her name before his voice broke . This was his daughter . Ever since he had learned the truth , he had been unable to sleep ; he had wanted to acknowledge her many times but had delayed , worried about the family's current instability .

Standing beside him was Ruby . " Natalie , I'm your mother . " She was far more emotional than Waylon . " My daughter , I truly didn't know you were still alive . If I had , I never would've let you suffer so 1/4 Chapter 164 Call Me Natalie Stone +10 Free Coins much . Natalic , once your father and brother finish purging the traitors from the Stone family , I'll come bring you home myself . " Ruby's eyes were red , tears spilling uncontrollably . Natalie had seen her before ; she knew how heavily Ruby had carried the weight of her supposed death , so she remained forgiving toward her .

" Take care of yourself . I've grown up now - I won't let myself be taken advantage of . " As soon as she said this , Waylon added , " Natalie , you are the Stone family's eldest daughter . Everything we have in Ocean City is at your disposal . Chris is in charge here ; you can trust him . And about your name ... " " Fine . Change it to Natalie Stone . " To Natalie , it hardly mattered . Her ties to the Summers family had long since ended . When Sharon had lashed her mercilessly with a whip , eager to see her die , her adoptive parents had watched with cold detachment .

Everything Sharon had done afterward bore their fingerprints as well . Whatever debt of upbringing there had been , she had repaid it in full . As for how her birth parents in the Stone family might treat her , she no longer held much expectation . Step by step , I'll just see as I go . If they treat me well , I'll return the kindness . If they try to use me ... I'm no fool . I'll fight back . When Waylon and Ruby heard her agree to the name change , their eyes instantly turned red with emotion . " Good , good ! Chris , make the arrangements immediately .

" " Thank you for everything you've done . I happen to need it . " Natalie - no , now Natalie Stone - spoke calmly . Her words made Baron's expression darken . " The Gunn family isn't exactly lacking in people or property . " She knew perfectly well what he was dissatisfied about , but she only smiled lightly . " Then I'll hang up for now . " " All right . Call your father and mother anytime you need anything ." 2/4 Waylon's words earned only a small nod from her . After the call ended , Baron pulled Natalic firmly against his side . " You really plan to live in the Stone family's house ?

You don't miss me and the kids ? " The way he looked at her , if she had uttered even a single word of refusal , he might have carried out justice on the spot . Natalie only laughed , wrapping her arms around his neck to give him a measure of reassurance . " Would Mr. Baron be willing to bring the children and stay with me at the Stone residence ? " The moment she spoke , Baron understood her intention . " You don't want me exposed so soon ? " " Exactly . Why waste a sledgehammer on a chicken ? Sharon and Jensen aren't worth your hand . I can deal with them myself .

I know I'd be safe under your identity , but I need an alternative- one that isn't Mrs. Gunn ." Her words made Baron bristle . " Being Mrs. Gunn is such a disgrace ? " " No. " Natalie shot him a sharp look before continuing . " What Sharon values mo < * is being Mrs. Luke . She's always believed I still pined for Jensen . Some people - if you nt to truly destroy them - you have to strip away what they cherish most . The more she clings to that title , the more determined I am to take it from her . " Baron's eyes darkened ; he pulled her hard into his chest .

" I don't care what you do , but you cannot rekindle anything with Jensen . If you do , I'll lose my mind right in front of you ." " That won't happen . I've never been in the habit of eating grass I've already grazed ." Her playful retort drew the edge from his fury . Watching the two of them , Chris finally pieced things together . " So this must be the son - in - law , I'll have rooms prepared immediately ." The way he addressed Baron made him falter for a moment . 3/4 " What did you just call me ? " " You're Ms. Stone's husband , aren't you ?

That makes you the Stone family's son - in - law ." о
