Echoes Of a Forsaken Heart (Natalia and Hamilton)

Chapter 20

Chapter 20 

The room echoed with a chorus of affirmations for Hamilton. The crowd thought Hamilton was just being stubborn. Only Natalia knew he genuinely didn’t care. He didn’t care if she would be kissed. He only cared if his possessions would be tampered with. 

Natalia took a deep breath, steadying her nerves. 

The game was still on. 

This time, Lady Luck wasn’t on Natalia’s side. 

Given how awkward Elliott’s dare was last round, Natalia straight–up opted for truth. 

Alden clicked his tongue and drew a question for her. “Ms. Jenkins, is there anyone you like? If yes, for how long?” 

As soon as the question was out, all eyes darted back to Hamilton. 

Hamilton raised an eyebrow, seemingly piqued by the inquiry. 

Natalia paused for a moment, then said, “Yes.” 

The room buzzed with excitement. Hamilton’s eyes narrowed ever so slightly. 

Alden glanced at his older brother and cheekily prodded. “And for how many years?” 

How many years? 

Natalia couldn’t even remember. 

If she counted from their reunion at seventeen, it was probably around ten years. 

“Ten years.” 

After Natalia’s admission, the room erupted in awe. Only Alden felt a shiver of dread. If he wasn’t mistaken, Natalia had only known his brother for three years. And if she had liked someone for ten, it clearly wasn’t Hamilton. 

A chill ran down Alden’s spine. Lately, it seemed he had a knack for putting Natalia on the spot. Last time, because of his heckling, Natalia had her first blush–worthy moment with Hamilton. Today, his question revealed that her heart belonged to someone else. He kept fouling up, time and time again. 

Alden felt like crying. Next time, he would definitely stay clear of these games with Natalia. 

Meanwhile, Hamilton sat beside her, his expression unreadable. 

Natalia didn’t pay attention to Hamilton’s reaction. She had braced herself for all eventualities after answering the question. Good or bad, she was ready to face it. 

Besides, she doubted Hamilton cared about who she fancied. 

After all, a man who didn’t speak of love or affection should be indifferent to his lover’s
