Chapter 181

When Stanley saw them, he raised his hands and waved. “Yulia, Nat, this way!”

Natalie smiled and walked over to him with Yulia, each of them leading one child.

“I’m so sorry Stanley, did we make you wait for a long time?” Natalie was very apologetic.

“Nah, I just got here.” Stanley got up and helped Yulia pull out her chair. “Please take a seat, Yulia.”

Yulia smiled happily at him. “You are so considerate.”

“My pleasure.” Stanley pushed his glasses back before helping Natalie and the two children pull out their
chairs. Finally, he took a seat.

After that, Stanley handed the menu to Yulia. “Take a look to see what you’d like to eat, Yulia.”

“I’ll take my pick now.” Yulia picked up the menu and looked at it together with the two children.

Stanley placed a plate of tiny desserts in front of Natalie, “Your favorite dessert.”

“Thank you.” Natalie smiled.



Stanley took a sip from his glass of water. “I heard from Jacqueline that you fell down together with her
today. Are you alright?”

“I’m fine, just that I have a bit of a scrape on my arm. Mr. Shane has already helped me apply
medication.” Natalie picked up a piece of the dessert with her fork before placing it in her mouth.

Stanley’s eyes grew cold. “Mr. Shane?”

“Yes?” Natalie nodded.



Stanley used his glass to hide his downturned lips. “Why would he apply medication for you?”

“I don’t know. He came to my apartment to look for me.” Natalie shrugged.

Stanley stroked his glass and did not say anything in response. The sinister look in his eyes could make
one shudder.

At this moment, Yulia and the two children had finished ordering their food and handed the menu to
them. “Alright, stop talking, the two of you. Take a look to see what you’d want to have.”

“I don’t mind anything. You can make the decision, Stanley.” Natalie handed the menu to Stanley
immediately.

Shoving his simmering anger away, Stanley resumed his pleasant smile and nodded. “Alright.”

The server brought their order chit to the kitchen after taking their orders.

After eating the dessert, Natalie picked up a napkin to wipe her mouth before standing up. “I’m headed to
the restroom.”

Then, she asked the server where the bathroom was before leaving the restaurant.

After using the bathroom, Natalie came out of the cubicle. She headed to the sink and was about to
touch up her make-up.

Just as she looked down to search for her lipstick in her bag, the door to the cubicle behind her suddenly
swung open. A man dressed in a hoodie appeared behind her. Suddenly, he grabbed the back of her
head and pushed it downwards forcefully.

Natalie was completely shocked by this sudden turn of events. Her arm swept her bag off the counter
and its contents were all scattered across the floor.



“Who are you? Let go of me! Help!” Natalie struggled and screamed out in fear.

Not only did the man not release her, but he also used more force and pushed her head into the sink.
Then with his other hand, he turned the tap on.

Icy cold water flowed from the top of her head, making Natalie shiver in the cold. Then, when some water
got into her nostrils, she began to cough and choke as well.

When the sink was half-filled, the man pushed her head into the water.

“Don’t blame me, I’m just acting under orders. Who asked you to be an immoral woman? Why did you go
around snatching other people’s men?” The man finally spoke, but his voice was clearly suppressed so
that she would not recognize his voice.

Even though Natalie heard him, she did not have the capacity to think who could have ordered him.

At this moment, her whole face was red and she felt like she was being suffocated. She felt extremely
uncomfortable, and both her arms started flailing wildly in the air.

“Umph… umph…” Natalie’s face was completely submerged in the water as the water continued flowing
from the top of her head. She could not open her mouth as the moment she did so, there would only be
gurgling sounds. Therefore, she could only use her throat to vocalize her cry for help, in the hope that
this man would release her.

However, the man was completely unmoved and kept pushing her head down without even a chance for
her to come up for a breath. Clearly, he was there to drown her.
