Oliver only wore a towel around his waist, his well-defined chest adorned with water droplets. The V-line disappeared into the towel, revealing six of his solid eight-pack abs.

He knew Natalie wasn't sleeping because her breathing pattern was different.

In less than two days, she had lost weight. Her already slim face had become even thinner, showing signs of exhaustion from her illness.

Oliver stood by the bed.

Bending down, Oliver kissed Natalie's forehead.

Natalie couldn't help but tremble her lashes.

"I will take you to the engagement banquet tonight," Oliver said.

Natalie kept her eyes closed and remained silent, neither agreeing nor objecting.

After all, she had grown accustomed to his overbearing and domineering nature, and expressing her opinion would only be a waste of breath.

Noticing Natalie's calm face and lack of color, Oliver, feeling downcast, left the room and made a call to Charles.

Jane was very worried about Natalie but couldn't gauge her current situation and didn'

    Natalie was speechless. "You can tell just like that?""Well, I'm not inexperienced. There's nothing I can't see..." Jane's words abruptly stopped as she thought of some unpleasant memories, her joyful expression fading slightly. "Natalie, I'll be going now. Call me if anything comes up.""Alright." Natalie nodded with a smile, having already noticed what Jane had just said.Natalie subtly furrowed her brows, thinking back to the man who had practically stuck by Jane's side two years ago - handsome, arrogant, and wild, yet exuding a natural elegance - his name was Anthony.Natalie knew he was Jane's bodyguard.But she had never encountered a bodyguard who would forbid others from sending love letters to the one they were protecting.Jane paused for a moment and looked up at the building, unable to help but sigh. If Hailey knew who was behind the rumors, would she regret going crazy?But a good-looking appearance was deceitful and useless, just like Anthony.As Jane got into the car, s

    It was supposed to maintain some surface peace, why was it so difficult?Jane turned around. "Are you offering me a ride?"Not counting the period of discreet monitoring, Anthony had been by Jane's side for two years, three months, and twenty-three days, and during half of that time, she had been with him.He understood Jane very well. This ambiguous expression on her face meant that she was either angry or planning something against someone.Sure enough, the next moment, the woman's smile widened. Her stunning beauty paired with her well-proportioned figure could defeat the once formidable Anthony with just a glance."I am of low standing and not worthy of riding in the same car as your boss. I am the enemy's daughter.""Get in the car." Out of Jane's sight, the man clenched his fists, veins visible on the back of his hands, suppressing something forcefully."If I get in the car, will you get out? Logically speaking, it would be disrespectful to my family if I shared a vehicle with y

    "Jane, what happened to Jovan was an accident..." Clint tried to explain, but the situation was chaotic at the time, and only Jovan and AAnthony knew the truth. Clint had no way to argue against it."Clint, what I hate is not that Anthony infiltrated The Watkins and caused it to become what it is today. What I hate is that he hurt my brother," Jane touched her eyes and was surprised to find that she no longer shed tears over these things.Numbness took over.She continued, "Clint, I tried to find him after it happened. I would have believed him if he explained, and I would have tried to understand if he had a reason. But what happened? I stood outside the mansion for a whole night, only to be met with rejection and ridicule from his mother."Clint remained silent, the weight of these past events too heavy.In fact, he had thought that these things would break Jane."Don't mention him in front of me again, or else don't blame me for forgetting the debt of saving my life and turning ag

    Arvin inwardly criticized Oliver's taste once again and took out the first dress that he eliminated."This is the dress with the most fabric; there's nothing more than this."The assistant was also disappointed at first. Mrs. Windsor clearly had a slender figure like a clothes hanger, but it wasn't until the moment she helped Natalie put on the dress that she understood why. Mr. Windsor looked cool and ascetic, and she didn't expect him to exhaust his wife like this...Natalie felt shy, completely unaware that the assistant had already regarded Oliver as a pervert.After changing into the dress, she took off her diamond wedding ring from her neck and put it on her right ring finger."Mrs. Windsor, you're so beautiful! You have a beautiful face and a great figure. You could easily become a model." The assistant had been flying all over the world with Arvin for years and had no time to keep up with online news, hence her unfamiliarity with Natalie.Natalie was satisfied with this dress;

    To his surprise, Oliver didn't get angry at all; instead, he effortlessly counterattacked. Natalie couldn't help but glance at Oliver, amazed by his dual image.If she hadn't witnessed Oliver's calm indifference in the presence of the higher-ups at the RK Group, if she didn't know that Oliver's abilities made Isaac, Wyatt, and others look up to him, it would have been easy to believe that this man was merely a spoiled brat with no accomplishments other than his family background. The brilliant Mr. Windsor, who had once astounded everyone, had been forgotten.But in reality, Oliver's strength surpassed everyone's imagination.Today, Adrian and Hailey were the main characters, and many people were watching them."Eh, isn't that Natalie?" someone who frequently browsed Instagram recognized her."Oh my god! Isn't that dress Arvin's flagship design, 'Speak,' from this year?" a socialite exclaimed, covering her mouth. "My goodness, it really is! Someone offered Arvin 10 million dollars to

    The long-absent feeling of relief washed over Natalie, sweeping away her frustration, and she couldn't help but lift the corners of her mouth.She also cooperatively smiled and said, "Hello!"Oliver glanced at Natalie from the corner of his eye, and that cold and somber face finally showed a hint of delight. He couldn't help but reveal a faint smile in his eyes.Oliver glanced at Hailey again. "You're still not a member of the Harrington family, so you don't have the right to call me that."Having to address her sister as "aunt" and being told that she doesn't have the right to do so is truly insulting!Adrian's face turned dark as coal instantly, and Hailey pursed her lips in silence.As darkness fell and the sunset bathed everything in a beautiful glow, a romantic cruise ship sailed towards the inland sea.Before the engagement ceremony began, guests chatted in groups of two or three, enjoying the buffet snacks.The pastry chef hired by Michelin was in charge of the snacks today, an

    "Noah!" Hailey heard the commotion and hurried over, witnessing this scene, a plan formed in her mind."Natalie, let go of Noah and don't do anything foolish!"Without any hesitation, she rushed over and "rescued" Noah from Natalie's grasp. At the same time, taking advantage of others' blind spots, she gently hooked her foot, causing Natalie's foot, which was already on the step, to lose balance, and she used her hip and elbow to push her.A loud splash engulfed by the sound of waves.Water splashed everywhere!"Someone fell into the water!""Natalie fell into the sea!""Noah, Miss Watson, are you okay?"Various voices passed by in her ears.Natalie felt her body sinking down and seawater rushing into her senses like madness.The only thing lingering in her ears was the phrase Noah said when he pushed her: "Do you recognize Flora's man? He's my uncle!"Natalie? It was because she was shocked by those words that she momentarily failed to notice Hailey's scheme and was caught off guard.

    When Roger's gaze softened, there was no trace of hostility, resembling a king of the elves.Only then did she realize that she was nestled in Roger's arms, no wonder she felt uncomfortable."That person isn't Mr. Windsor!" someone recognized.Oliver?Natalie's heart skipped a beat, then she heard the sound of someone swimming beside her, different from the sound of the waves.The man who had just surfaced was still gasping for breath, the silver mask shimmering under the neon lights of the yacht. His eyes were even more chilling than the mask.Another lifeboat rowed towards Oliver, but he ignored it and swam straight towards Natalie.Without anyone's help, he propped himself up on the side of the boat with his arm, exerting his muscles effortlessly, and easily got on the lifeboat."Thank you for saving my wife."Oliver, as cold as ice, uttered a few words, forcefully pulling Natalie into his own embrace from Roger's.Natalie's body jerked; her hand was still holding Roger's, a moveme

    Oliver furrowed his brows, looking at the spaghetti in the thermos.But in his mind, he pictured the seafood soup Natalie used to make.Susan's spaghetti was simple and hadn't changed over the years.Natalie, on the other hand, would carefully consider the pairing and nutritional aspects when cooking and use more diverse ingredients."I'll eat it later," Oliver said.Susan's eyes lit up with joy, and she sweetly smiled at Oliver. "As long as you want to eat it, I can make it for you from now on!"Oliver's brow twitched imperceptibly upon hearing "from now on", feeling an inexplicable resistance, and Natalie crossed his mind."Susan, I called you here to ask about this. What's going on?" Oliver took out his phone, displaying the news article about him and Susan."I... I just came back to the country and needed some attention and publicity, so... I'm sorry, I didn't know the netizens would speculate like this." Susan subconsciously glanced at Oliver. Although he often appeared expressio

    "Because Zoey is so good at makeup, and there's only Jacob in our group, how could I lend you makeup." Jane's smile is mischievous, as if it were a joke, making people feel no disgust, "You have Zoey's makeup technology, we use cosmetics to make up for Jacob's poor aesthetic, just to even out the odds!"Zoey chuckled, thinking that Jane, the former top socialite, was indeed not bragging. She managed to manipulate people without offending anyone unrelated, hitting the target precisely."Jane, aren't you going to scold me to death?" Jacob exclaimed in anger.His hands trembled as he applied blush on Natalie's cheeks. Having never done makeup for a woman before, he was already nervous, and then there was a woman next to him who kept making sarcastic remarks.Jane laughed, "You won't die, but you might feel happier."Lily looked at Natalie, hoping she would speak up and exchange props with her, but Natalie closed her eyes and allowed Jacob to do her makeup as if she hadn't heard anything.

    "Lily!" Sharon frowned and reprimanded her.Lily pretended to suddenly understand, "Ah! I'm sorry, did I say something wrong?"Zoey looked at these two people and a hint of mockery flashed in her eyes. She had seen through the tricks of these young people as if watching a show.Jane sneered at Lily and her lips moved slightly as she quietly asked Natalie, "Natalie, do you think I should throw this lunch in her face?"Natalie calmly held Jane's wrist and calmed her down.It wouldn't be good for Jane's reputation if she were to have conflict with Lily in front of so many people.Instead, Natalie smiled and said, "Why do you care about what I do with my husband? Are you interested in my husband? Whether or not I cook for him, isn't it my freedom to decide?" If Natalie's husband were an ordinary person, it would be fine, but unfortunately, he's Oliver. If she speaks carelessly, she could easily be labeled as someone who harbors ill intentions towards him, becoming the laughingstock and g

    Jacob was shocked, his captivating fox eyes widened, "You...""Jane won the National Junior Amateur Shooting gold medal prize in high school. Haven't you heard of it?" Natalie said as she picked up the note to read it.Jacob was still stunned and thought, "I've only heard that Jane used to fight and go to bars. Who knew this girl would also play with guns? Is this a joke?""Both fighting and shooting? What's the point of being reincarnated as a woman?" Jacob couldn't help but comment."Just to make you feel ashamed. A man who wasted three bullets!" Jane laughed, her beauty extraordinary.Look down on my best friend? I'll curse you until you question your life!Natalie spread out the notes and said, "There are seven words."NPC Reminder: "Not every clue is a valid one."Jacob had an expression of "what the hell."What's the point of a clue if it's invalid?!The directing team loves this kind of teasing plotlines."How can we tell what this

  • Bride in Disguise   Chapter 282 That is Oliver

    Although the online photos didn't reveal Oliver's face or provide any indication of who he was, Natalie recognized him at first glance. It was the man she had once shared a bed with.He was the man who said he had work that night when she called."Natalie, don't overthink it. Maybe that's not Oliver? You can call him and ask." Jane advised, though she was already cursing Oliver inwardly."That person is Oliver." Natalie lowered her gaze and sneered. She recognized the cufflink he was wearing, the one she had given him.Not only that cufflink, but almost everyone in Paykston's upper circles knew that Mr. Windsor's most commonly used car was a top-of-the-line Rolls-Royce Phantom, with a black body and subtle luxury, bearing the license plate "7".And the car that was exposed online met all the requirements for Oliver's vehicle!"Take your positions, we're about to start!" The director's team urged.Lily touched up her makeup and walked over with a smile. "N

    When Natalie finished her class and arrived at the recording site, most of the other guests had already arrived. The area was cordoned off, and there were many onlookers standing outside the designated area, including students from other universities who had rushed over after hearing the news.Natalie spotted someone in one of the guest's seats from a distance, her gaze flickered and then she smiled with joy, "Jane!"Jane stood up and embraced Natalie as she ran towards her.The surrounding students whispered to each other:"Natalie is also a guest?""Natalie's beside Jane? I can't believe it!""Who is that person? Such a strong presence!" "You don't know Jane? The former top socialite was not boasting." "Because birds of a feather flock together, beautiful people naturally become best friends with other beautiful people, right?" "Jane, why did you agree to be on a variety show?" Natalie asked, puzzled. Jane's personality was clearly not s

    "This way to your seat." the assistant said to the tall man behind him.Even with sunglasses on, Natalie still recognized him at first glance. He was Joseph, the country's top male international supermodel!With wheat-colored skin and not particularly delicate features, he exuded absolute sophistication, making him a darling of several luxury brands. He had an inherent sense of nobility, fitting for a male model."If all goes well, we should be finished filming today and return home the same day. You will have a day off tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, you'll join the team to record the variety show." Emily stopped mid-sentence when she noticed Natalie's peculiar gaze.She followed Natalie's line of sight and locked eyes with Joseph, who had taken off his sunglasses.After a moment of bewilderment, Emily averted her gaze and continued discussing the schedule and today's points of attention with Natalie.Joseph casually spun his sunglasses on his fingerti

    "Mrs. Windsor, are you going to deny it after hugging me?" Oliver said, his emotions unclear."What do you mean by ‘deny it after hugging'? What is there to deny?" Natalie replied, confused.Confronted with Natalie's baffled expression, Oliver instinctively pulled her into his arms and gave her a kiss.Natalie subconsciously glanced toward the company's entrance gate, and sure enough, she saw multiple pairs of curious eyes staring at them.Quickly, Natalie pulled Oliver toward the car, her ears burning red.Meanwhile, Oliver stood motionless, allowing Natalie to pull and tug, like a sulking child.Natalie looked up at the sky in disbelief, wondering what this man was up to. Suddenly, a thought flashed in her mind. She tiptoed and quickly pecked Oliver's lips, whispering softly, "Darling, shall we go home?"Her voice, unbeknownst to Natalie herself, carried a gentle warmth, sounding almost coquettish. Oliver had originally intended to defy her and stand th

    "Go and apologize to her!" Just minutes before Storme brought Lily to apologize, Emily had discovered that Lily was the one who had used an employee card to enter and had brushed shoulders with Mrs. Watson. "Emily, Natalie, I'm truly sorry. Lily made a mistake today. She didn't recognize Mrs. Watson and thought she was one of Natalie's relatives with an urgent matter. That's why she brought her in. We came to apologize!" Storme, being a top-tier agent at HHY, possessed excellent skills and emotional intelligence.Lily sincerely apologized to Natalie, echoing Storme's explanation.Emily and Natalie exchanged a subtle glance- they were surely lying!Emily's smile remained unchanged as she said, "What a coincidence indeed!
