Chapter 50 When I woke up , I found myself lying in my own bed . " Turning my head , I saw Daniel next to me . Noticing my gaze , he opened his eyes and pulled me into his arms , his voice soft with guilt . " Natalie , you're awake . Do you want to sleep a little longer ? " Feeling the warmth of his chest , I felt a sharp ache and pushed him away . " " Daniel , what are you pretending for ? " He froze for a moment , then said , " I'm sorry . I thought Mom was just trying to scare you . I didn't think those two servants would really lock you in the storage room . " " Mom went a little too far this time , but you were the one who hurt Jennifer . " } Even now , he was still making excuses . I looked down and let out a cold laugh . " If you hadn't said what you did , would they have dared to lock me up ? " } I paused , then added , " Since your mom already treats Jennifer like her real daughter - in - law , why don't I just leave ? Then you and Jennifer can be together and your mom won't be upset every time she sees me . " With that , I got up and started to walk away . Daniel quickly pulled me into a hug , his voice shaking . " Natalie , after three years together , I won't let you go ." " " Are you still upset about Jennifer ? Then I'll ask her to move out . I won't see her again . " " His words might fool a young girl , but I won't fall for them again . " I shoved him away . Just as I opened my mouth to speak , Jennifer suddenly threw open the bedroom door . er eve She froze , eyes wide in shock . Tears filled her eyes as she looked at Daniel . " No need to kick me out . I'll take Rihanna and leave right now . " With that , she turned and walked out . Daniel looked panicked and jumped out of bed to chase her , not even sparing me a glance . \ Watching him run down the hallway , I couldn't help but follow . Jennifer stood on the second - floor balcony , looking down at the two - meter - deep swimming pool . " Her eyes were red as she looked at Daniel , her voice shaking . " Daniel , if even you don't want me anymore , then I'll just jump . I know you and Natalie are the real couple , but I can't help feeling jealous . " " Please take care of Rihanna after I'm gone . And don't try to stop me . " " She stepped toward the railing . Daniel rushed forward and hugged Jennifer tightly , his eyes full of pain . " " I'm sorry . It was my fault . I shouldn't have said those things . But the one I truly love is you . We still have Rihanna . If you really jump , what will happen to her ? What about me ? " He looked at Jennifer with deep affection . Watching their little love scène unfold , I stepped out from the shadows and slowly clapped . The moment Daniel saw me , his face froze . He opened his mouth , then finally said with difficulty , " Natalie , I'll explain everything tonight , okay ? " I shook my head and looked at him calmly . " No need . I'll leave on my own soon . I won't get in the way of your love . " I turned to leave , but Daniel reached out to stop me . Before he could grab me , Jennifer stepped in front of me . " " Natalie , please don't leave Daniel because of me . This is all my fault . I shouldn't have brought Rihanna here and I shouldn't have gotten so close to Daniel . I should be the one to leave . " > Seeing Jennifer's fake expression made me feel sick . I said coldly , " Are you done ? If you are , then move out of the way . " " But instead of stepping aside , Jennifer grabbed my arm . " Natalie , you and Daniel have to stay well . That way , I'll feel better even if I leave ... " % I gave her a mocking smile and pulled my arm free from her grip . But the next second , Jennifer screamed , threw up her arm and fell backward . Daniel , looking panicked , pushed me aside and rushed to catch her.M He held her tightly by the waist , his voice full of relief . " Thank goodness you're okay . I would've never forgiven myself if something happened to you ."
