Not twins novel (Natasha and Kenneth)

Chapter 17 Two Can Play That Game

It became clear as day that everything Kenneth did was deliberately targeted at her.

Not wanting to show him any sign of reluctance, Natasha decided to face him head-on.

“No problem. I appreciate you offering me such a huge project, and I will be sure to do my job well. However, I must apologize in advance as my presence may make some people uncomfortable.”

A few years ago, Natasha was a sassy, straightforward, and boring person. Now, she has become as cunning as a fox. I can’t figure her out at all… She still looks the same as before, but everything feels so different.

With that in mind, Kenneth stared at her and asked, “How sincere is that smile of yours, Natasha?”

Natasha arched an eyebrow at him in response. “Sincerity? Well, that depends on who I’m speaking to. If it’s someone like you, Mr. Hamilton, then I’d say none at all.”

Angered by her words, Kenneth grabbed her by the chin and gave it a squeeze. “If that’s the case, then why did you insist on marrying me back then?”

“I was young and immature back then. I devoted myself to my marriage because I thought it would last forever, but I was wrong. I now understand that there are plenty of men out there, so I can just find a new one if things don’t work out. Are you reminiscing the past, Mr. Hamilton? Or are you feeling uncomfortable because my life isn’t in ruins after leaving you?”

Natasha’s choice of words was clearly meant to spite him.

Kenneth glared at her as he muttered through clenched teeth, “Yes, I am feeling uncomfortable. I will have you repay everything you owe me, Natasha!”

“Oh? And how will you have me do that?” Natasha asked with a meaningful smile.
