Aurelia adjusted her shirt collar, placing her hands on her chest and preventing him from touching it. “Don’t be ridiculous. I’ll go prepare your bath,” she said.
Nathaniel held her close, refusing to let go. “I’m not blind. I know your size. Did you secretly get a breast augmentation?” he asked.
Nathaniel’s previous comments about the size of her bosom hurt Aurelia’s feelings. “Nathaniel, look at me. My bosom is not diminutive! I haven’t had surgery. They’re natural,” she insisted.
Nathaniel chuckled. “I need to confirm if they’re natural. You’ve been avoiding my touch. Have you been using something to enhance them? Besides, I’m strong and have a good performance in sex. You need to confirm that personally.”
Aurelia blushed, feeling rather lightheaded.
She turned away, not daring to look into his eyes. Nathaniel could easily dazzle Aurelia by throwing some sweet talk or seductive ones. Aurelia wasn’t as strong as she wished.
“Do you hear that?” she asked.
“You were speaking so loudly that I couldn’t help but hearing, and so did Uncle Marcus, Nathaniel replied.
Aurelia felt even more embarrassed. How would she face Marcus now? It seemed as if she was
hard to please.
“You were the one who started it. Don’t blame me, Aurelia retorted.
“So, I should prove myself!”
Aurelia felt his unusual behavior, and his warmth slowly enveloped her.
“Let go of me. We’re getting a divorce,” she said.
Nathaniel didn’t like hearing those words. He rolled over, and the two of them tumbled to the edge of the bed, with him pinning her down.
“We haven’t gone through the divorce. I can’t let you go to Samuel like this. You’ll surely compare me with him. It’s about my reputation, and I must prove my ability,” Nathaniel said.
He provocatively moved his body. “I’m definitely better than your Samuel,” he added.

Aurelia’s ears turned red. “Let me go! I can’t do that today.”
“Why? Are you on your period?” he asked, reaching out to check.
“Aurelia, you’re being naughty. You’ve learned to lie, Nathaniel said.
“Nathaniel…”
“Be good and call me honey.”
Nathaniel raised her hands above her head. He always liked to be dominant, and now she felt a
sense of panic.
“Nathaniel, we don’t need to be like this. Let’s spend these days calmly and then get a divorce. It’s better for both of us. Are you willing to be with a woman you don’t love?”
The kiss on her neck abruptly stopped. He panted in her ear, his hand exploring her body.
“Your pants are wet, and you say you don’t want to be with me? Aurelia, don’t lie to yourself: You like it when I do this!”
Aurelia’s desire was aroused, and it was about to take over her mind, but her rationality told her it was not right.
“Nathaniel, Nathaniel…”
She kept calling his name, hoping he would stop. But her voice seemed to act as a stimulant to Nathaniel, making him want her even more.
Aurelia stopped struggling and looked up at the chandelier on the ceiling in despair.
“Nathaniel, if Chelsea doesn’t want to, would you force her?”
This question seemed to touch Nathaniel’s nerves, and all the intimate actions suddenly stopped. Nathaniel looked at the woman beneath him, bit her lip, and then turned over to the side.
“You’re different from her,” he said.
Aurelia’s heart ached. They were different, so Nathaniel treated them
differently. Of course, he wouldn’t be violent towards Chelsea.
In the end, they didn’t do it, as Aurelia had successfully Chelsea.

Aurelia smiled helplessly. At a critical moment, she had to use Chelsea to deal with Nathaniel, and it worked well. It was truly ironic.
Aurelia knew that his mood had changed, so she was temporarily safe.
“Nathaniel, we’re getting a divorce. Let’s talk about it today. Do you often confuse me with Chelsea? When we were together, were you thinking of her?”
Nathaniel laughed coldly. “Are you str
Why would I think of Chelsea?”
“That’s right. Even if we look alike, I’m not her after all.”
Nathaniel didn’t catch Aurelia’s murmuring and asked, “What do you say?”
“Nothing.”
“You’re going to work at the Heilbronn Group tomorrow. It’s our grandfather’s order. You’ll drive there, and we should avoid being seen together, as no one in the company knows about our marriage. You should know how to behave in public.”
“I understand, Mr. Heilbronn.”
“You can still use my supplementary card before the divorce.”
“No need. You can give it to Chelsea.”
Aurelia’s words reignited Nathaniel’s anger. Since they signed the divorce agreement, she seemed like a time bomb, ready to explode at any moment. He said one thing, and she could refute him ten times, becoming very harsh.
“Don’t you understand my good intentions towards you?”
After saying that, he staggered into the shower.
Aurelia stared at the ceiling blankly, then found a nightgown and went to sleep in the guest room. She had learned a lesson from what happened last time, so she locked the door as soon as she
entered the room.
If the sense of security in the first twenty years of her life came from Helen and Penelope, the current sense of security came from this lock.
Aurelia couldn’t help but mock herself. If only she could put a lock on her heart, she wouldn’t be in so much pain now.

The next day, Aurelia quickly freshened up and put on light makeup.
Her clothes were in the main bedroo
closet, so she had to go back to the main bedroom.
When she saw Nathaniel coming down in a well–ironed suit, Aurelia quietly ran back to the main When she saw Nathaniel coming down i bedroom.
Most of her clothes were casual. After searching for a long time, Aurelia found a tight purple skirt. She paired it with a white blouse. She twirled in front of the mirror, somewhat satisfied with the
result.
Aurelia turned around and saw Nathaniel, who had just come downstairs, standing with his hands in his pockets and looking at her with a smile.
“When did you come back?” she asked.
“Unfortunately, I saw the whole process of you changing your clothes,” he replied.
“My breast isn’t that big, so Mr. Heilbronn should look at Chelsea next time,” Aurelia said.
After that, she saw the smile on his lips disappear instantly. She couldn’t help but thinking, ‘Did I just find a way to make him unhappy?‘
“It looks a little larger than before, but you can make up for your innate deficiencies with effort. Have you heard the saying that a girl’s breast can get larger when she has a man to… If you come to me, I’d be happy to help.”
Aurelia grabbed her phone and walked out, muttering, “You must be insane.”
After breakfast, they left together, each in their car
Nathaniel had reminded her yesterday to leave at different times to avoid being seen by his colleagues. However, Aurelia felt that he probably didn’t remember what he had said.
“Mr. Heilbronn, please wait five minutes in the car before starting the engine. We have to leave separately and not enter the company together.”
Aurelia stepped on the gas and drove away.
Nathaniel squinted where he stood, got into the car, and started the engine after a while.
Aurelia arrived at the design department. After explaining to the receptionist, she was told to go directly to HR department on the 11th–floor to complete the entry procedures.

Chapter 24 Go to Work at the Heilbronn Group.
After three years of marriage, it was her first time entering the Heilbronn Group, and everything seemed new to her.
As she reached the elevator, she heard a familiar voice behind her. “Aurelia, what are you doing
here?”
Many colleagues were waiting for the elevator, so they had to hide any animosity and maintain a facade of peace. After all, adults‘ struggles were not for the sake of a moment of satisfaction.
Aurelia replied calmly, “I’m here to work.”
Chelsea pursed her lips, looked Aurelia up and down, and then said in a gentle tone, “It’s too crowded here. Follow me and take the president’s private elevator. Nathaniel told me the password, and I can tell you if you want to know. But you can’t tell others the password!”
As they were talking, Nathaniel entered the building.
The employees all greeted him with smiles. Nathaniel headed towards the private elevator, and as he passed the employee elevator, Chelsea quickly followed, still holding onto Aurelia’s hand.
“Mr. Heilbronn, I’ll take Aurelia with me in your elevator. I hope you don’t mind,” Chelsea said.
Nathaniel looked at Aurelia. She was wearing flat shoes and was a little taller than Chelsea, who was wearing high heels.
“It is okay,” he said absentmindedly, his mind elsewhere.
Aurelia reflected on the morning’s talk in the dressing room and couldn’t help but thinking that he was thinking something dirty.
The eighth floor was the design department, and Chelsea got off the elevator, leaving the two of them standing together in an awkward silence.
“You look good today,” Nathaniel complimented.
It was rare for Aurelia to hear something nice from Nathaniel, who was usually harsh in his words.
In the past, it would have made her happy for the whole day. Now, she just wanted to make him unhappy.
