Chapter 975 Get Close
Jerome followed her as they made their way to the wine cellar.
Natalie took out two bottles of wine from the cabinet and two well-crafted wine glasses.
Popping open the bottles, she then poured the red wine into a decanter.
Since the process needed time, Natalie decided to arrange the pink roses in a vase while waiting.
However, she saw that the flowers had already been arranged into a vase the moment she turned to look.
“I’ve handled it,” Jerome said, smiling and rubbing the back of his head.
“Okay. Thank you.”
A moment later, the wine was finally done decanting.

Both of them sat opposite each other on the floor as they drank and talked about the old days.
“Natalie… why do I feel like you’ve changed so much? It hasn’t even been a year since you were in Chanaea,” Jerome said as he took a sip of the wine. “I feel like you have more on your mind now…”
“Well, maybe.”
Natalie gave him an ambiguous answer.
Half of what was troubling her was work, and the other half was Samuel.
She still couldn’t understand why Samuel would choose to betray her and propose to Luna.
“Is it too tiring to make money?” Supporting his body with his arms, he stared at Natalie. “Slow down if it’s too tiring. If it gets any worse, don’t do it anymore. It’s not that bad to be a slacker.”
She shook her head and said, “No, I can’t. I’m not working for just myself now. I have five children. There’s no way I can afford to raise them if I become a slacker.”
Then, without any hesitation, the man replied, “I’ll help you raise them!”
“You…” Natalie was left stunned by his words, but she quickly responded, “No way. You’re only assisting me because we grew up together. But I’m not that shameless of a person. It’s not easy for the Sutton family to have a major-general like you. Keep yourself single now and marry the person you like instead.”
Jerome knew that she was avoiding him, but he wasn’t anxious about it.
“Do you still remember our childhood?”

“Of course! How can I not?” Thinking back to the time when they were younger, Natalie felt as though they had gone back to the time when they were carefree children. “Back then, I never would have believed that you’re General Sutton’s only son, nor would I expect you to grow up to be so tall and handsome.”
Her childhood was filled with happiness.
The thought of it made Natalie smile ear to ear.
“I remember too… Since I was young, I knew…” I knew that you’d grow up to be a beautiful and strong woman.

With his status now, Jerome had many women chasing after him. He took priority in his job and used the military as an excuse to reject them, but only he himself knew that Natalie was the only woman he ever wanted.
“Our childhood was really the best time!” The woman raised her glass and said, “Come on! Let’s toast to our nostalgic past!”
“Sure.”
Their glasses collided and a crisp clink sounded.
Both of them continued drinking and talking for a long time.
When Natalie had too much to drink, she lay on a pillow drunkenly as she said, “A thousand glasses is not enough when you drink with a great friend. It’s too bad that I have such a low tolerance… Burp…”
Jerome saw how addicted to drinking she was even though she was bad at it and had already expected this.
He also lay on a pillow and supported his head with his arm as he stared at the woman’s side profile. His heart thumped loudly and his ears began to redden.
Jerome was a vigorous young man and had heard of all sorts of amorous things from his fellow comrades in the military. He couldn’t stop himself from gulping as he watched the drunk Natalie before him.
His gaze shifted to her red and enticing lips. At that moment, he felt his throat dry up in an instant.
Meanwhile, his body also seemed to have its own consciousness as it slowly leaned closer to her.
