"As for why I slapped your brother, it's simply because he was disrespectful towards Jane! Back when the Harrington family and the Watson’s were in business together, we treated each other like family. Now that your brother is acting against us, if this were to get out, I'm sure it would be Jane who would feel embarrassed, not me!"Jane smiled and looked at Adrian. "Adrian, not to criticize, but you're playing a bit too much. Our Natalie has no relationship whatsoever with you now. Noah is your brother, not Natalie's"Adrian's face turned sour for a moment. Jane was reminding him that Natalie was no longer his girlfriend."Adrian, look at Noah's face..." Hailey intentionally reminded him of what happened to his brother."Fine!" Adrian's expression turned cold. "Miss Watson, Ms. Jane, the two of you have resorted to personal attacks against a younger family member. Since you are unwilling to apologize, I will have to involve the police for mediation."Since Natalie has lost face and ha
He would never dare to have any inappropriate thoughts about the woman in front of him, even if she was beautiful. It's not like he wanted to die young!Natalie blushed instantly.Because she thought of Oliver, the only man who had ever kissed her, and he happened to be her... husband."Oh, my goodness! Natalie, you are so beautiful!" Arvin couldn't help but exclaim after finishing the styling.The other models and makeup artists all turned their attention to her with amazed expressions.Natalie looked ethereal in a white dress, with her long hair in loose curls and a white baby's breath as a hair accessory, perfectly complementing the boldness within her wavy hair. Her makeup wasn't elegant but carried a hint of wildness.Arvin excelled at blending different styles, creating a striking and refreshing sensation."If the dress wasn't so reserved, it would be even more stunning." Jane looked down upon the outfit. With her background in photography, Jane had excellent taste.Arvin pouted
Even if he loved beautiful women, he didn't dare to have any inappropriate thoughts about the woman in front of him!Natalie blushed immediately.Because she thought of Oliver, the only man who had kissed her, and also her husband."Oh my god! Natalie, you're so beautiful!" Arvin couldn't help but exclaim after finishing her styling.The other models and makeup artists all turned their gaze towards her, revealing a look of astonishment.Natalie, in a white fairy-like dress, with her long wavy hair partially pinned up, adorned with white aster flowers as accessories. It perfectly toned down the boldness of her wavy hair, with a touch of wildness in her elegant makeup.Arvin was skilled at blending different styles, giving people a refreshing and stunning look."If the clothes were less conservative, it would be even more stunning." Jane frowned at this outfit. Being in the photography profession, Jane had top-notch aesthetic sense.Arvin grinned. Originally, it was supposed to be a sex
"Natalie, was it your carelessness that caused this?" Hailey furrowed her brows, looking worried yet hesitant to speak.Everyone's gaze turned to Natalie.This Hummer is Natalie's display car, and Natalie happened to be sitting on the hood of the Hummer the entire afternoon today, obviously capable of "accidentally" scratching the paint of the car.Being careless and damaging the vehicle as a car model reflects a lack of professional ethics, and it would definitely be a stain on her modeling career if this news were to spread.The smile on the head manager's face instantly disappeared. "Natalie, what on earth happened? You damaged the paint of this car, and you must take responsibility and compensate for it!""Natalie, repainting this car costs a lot of money. Do you have the means to pay for it?" Hailey sympathetically said, "Do you want me to lend you some money?""I am expected to admit that I scratched the paint, right?" Natalie spoke slowly after they finished talking."And who e
Adrian immediately pinned the blame on Natalie and stood up for his girlfriend.Isaac couldn't help but roll his eyes in front of everyone.Looking at his brother, the man's eyes curled up coldly, mocking Adrian.Natalie couldn't help but burst into laughter, "Miss Hailey, did I explicitly say it was you? Why are you so eager to assume it was you? Adrian, do you know the whole story before rushing to support her?"Natalie was certain that Hailey was responsible for the incident, but she lacked direct evidence."Adrian, look at how she’s treating me." Hailey pretended to be the victim."Natalie, I won't pursue today's matter any further. I will cover the cost of repairing this car for you." Adrian generously said. "Please handle the formalities.""Heh!" This was Oliver's first time making a sound since arriving at this dilemma.A laugh that sent shivers down one's spine.Adrian turned his gaze towards Oliver as he laughed.He had noticed this man as soon as he entered. His appearance a
"Hailey, what's going on?" Adrian asked, almost shouting."Adrian, I don't want to take off the ring. I promised to marry you, and I'll wear it for the rest of my life. Please don't be angry." Hailey smiled forcibly, making an effort to appear calm."I'm asking you, what happened with the car that got scratched!" Adrian practically yelled the question. As soon as he considered that he had wrongly accused Natalie while defending Hailey, he felt like a fool!"I... I don't know, really." Hailey shook her head, her eyes flickering under everyone's gaze. "Maybe I accidentally brushed against it when I passed by earlier, or maybe... Oh! I tripped with my high heels just now and almost fell. Maybe during that moment, I unintentionally scratched the car."The green paint on the ring was undeniable evidence, visual proof of Hailey's lie.Hailey couldn't deny it any longer and had to admit that she had scratched the car. But she absolutely refused to admit that she had framed Natalie, absolutel
Natalie shook her head, immediately denying her terrifying thought.Rather than saying Oliver did it for her, it was more convincing to say he did it to provoke Adrian. From the experience at the Windsor family mansion, it was clear that Oliver disliked his nephew, Adrian.The celebration banquet was held at the Starry Hotel."Congratulations on the perfect conclusion of our Autumn Exhibition!""Cheers!"In the spacious north hall of the hotel, glasses clinked, and laughter filled the air.Some people were here just for the meal, like Natalie. But most were here to expand their social network during this opportunity.During the dinner, a few models sat on the laps of some executives."Are you the woman by Isaac's side?" one executive approached Natalie with a drink.Natalie's face darkened, and she discreetly moved away from the chair. "No, I'm not."Mr. Brown immediately smiled, "Perfect! How about joining me then? I will help you!"Mr. Brown took the chance to extend his hand toward
During the celebration banquet held here for the employees participating in the car exhibition today, Isaac, the second generation in the industry, along with the young CEOs, were also having a gathering in the VIP box next door. They had invited Oliver to join them.Unexpectedly, in the midst of their celebration, Oliver received a call from Natalie.Over the phone, the woman called him "Isaac" right away, her voice filled with abnormal tension.In that instant, he knew that something had happened to her."Mr. Windsor..."Natalie let out a sigh of relief, as if all the strength had been drained from her body. For several seconds, she even had to lean on Oliver's body and could barely stand steadily on her own."Did he touch you?" Oliver's voice was icily calm."N-No." Natalie didn't know if his use of the word "touch" referred to harassment or not."Where did he touch you?" Oliver asked, clearly refusing to believe her."Nowhere, really..." Natalie hesitated, feeling ashamed. She did
