As a matter of fact, Natalie's French was excellent.When she spoke, it had an authentic Parisian accent.There has always been a saying that French is the most romantic language in the world but it is difficult to master its pronunciation, and many people do not have the opportunity to learn it.It wasn't until this moment that Oliver agreed with this statement.He had never heard anyone speak French so gently and nobly before. Each word she spoke sounded like a melodic song, turning the stiff contractual documents into poetry."Um, brother, I don't recognize this word," he said.The woman's voice suddenly paused."Inflation incontrollable, uncontrollable inflation," Oliver repeated once, then explained.Such specialized vocabulary was not usual.Natalie blinked and was shocked by what she heard.He spoke French... and it sounded so good!"How long have you been learning French?" Oliver asked curiously."Well..." Natalie thought for a moment. "I became interested in it during middle
After Oliver finished reading the email from Europe, he looked up and saw a delicate woman slouched on the sofa, her small head was hanging. Her posture displayed signs of severe fatigue.Oliver had never taken care of a woman before. The only person he ever took care of was his younger brother, Arthur, who displayed the same strong-willed genes and hardly needed his care as he grew older. At this moment, Oliver suddenly realized that Natalie had been taking care of him all day. She probably stayed up all night as well when he had surgery last night. A strange dull pain accompanied by a sense of guilt gripped Oliver's heart. As he removed the needle, he felt a sharp pain in his legs the moment he got off the bed. Without pausing for even a second, he endured the pain and continued walking. He took a thin blanket from the bed and sat down beside Natalie. The sofa naturally sank under their combined weight, causing Natalie's body to lean towards Oliver. Her head rested on his shou
"What on earth have you made? Don't you know Mr. Windsor is very particular about his dietary preferences?" Cadence pointed disdainfully, her face was full of contempt. "Natalie, is that your name? Mr. Windsor would never eat such unappealing dishes. Stop wasting your efforts here!""Miss Cadence!" Rosy May's voice carried a hint of hostility. She didn't like Cadence, but as adults themselves, they had always ensured to maintained civility in the past. However, Cadence had crossed the line this time!The man on the sickbed immediately removed the pillow from his hand and placed one foot on the ground, staring at Natalie.Natalie took a deep breath, glanced at Rosy May for a couple of seconds, suppressed her anger, and prepared to crouch down to clean up the mess.Seeing that Oliver didn't blame her and Natalie didn't dare utter a word, Cadence became even more audacious. "I'll take care of Mr. Windsor from now on. You better leave!""Hisss!" Natalie suddenly felt a sharp pain on her f
"I'm not her friend!"Who the fuck asked her to save face for him!Rosy May disinfected her wound, and then put a band-aid on the small cut.Natalie stood up, somewhat expectantly confirming with him, "You won't protect her?""The fuck, can't you tell that I won’t protect her?" Oliver could really be driven to death by this woman!"Oh, then you wait later," Natalie walked out."Mr. Windsor, don't move! I can't let you mess with your body. Do you want to end up disabled in the future?" Rosy May hastily stopped Oliver who wanted to get out of bed again. "I'll keep an eye on your woman, I promise you that not a hair on her head will be harmed!"Cadence didn't leave, sitting resentfully on the bench in the hospital corridor."Miss Cadence."Natalie walked over and said, "I forgot to tell you something just now."Cadence stood up, full of defiance, "An apology, right? It's too late! I won't accept it!"She wasn't tall, she was only at the same height as Natalie despite wearing a ten-centim
Unfortunately, his current physical condition didn't allow to engage in more intimate acts.Natalie, leaning against the edge of the bed, gasped heavily, turned over, and was horrified to find that the glass shutters were not tightly closed.Outside, Rosy May was gleefully watching with her shining eyes, and the two locked eyes. Rosy May even threw a seductive glance!Oh no! How would Natalie be able to face Doctor May in the future!When it was time to sleep, Natalie made the decision and left the ward after telling Oliver."Where are you going?" the man called out to her from behind."To sleep," she answered."Sleep here," Oliver nodded towards the vacant spot next to him.The VIP bed was very large, it was two-meter wide and was big enough to accommodate two people without an issue."Huh?" Natalie was momentarily stunned, and she shook her head without any hesitation. "There's an empty room next door.""Come over," Oliver didn't waste any words, he didn't care whether there was an
"Men...don't understand?" Oliver remained calm, not feeling any awkwardness about the situation."Oh... I've heard about it," Natalie said, but hearing about it and experiencing it were two different things.She hurriedly sat up, even feeling a bit clumsy, and avoided looking around the bed, quickly tidying up her disheveled clothes.It was strange; she had been sleeping innocently. There was no reason for Oliver’s body act like this in the morning."Is the bottom of the shirt lifted above the waist when you get up?"As Natalie imagined herself in such a situation, sleeping in the same bed as Oliver, her cheeks began to flush."Natalie," Oliver suddenly said, "help me.""Help with what?" Natalie was puzzled and thought he was asking for assistance sitting up.Just as she reached out her hand, it was held by the man, and she followed his gaze to his..."You..." Natalie could probably guess what his "help me" meant."Help me..." Oliver directly stated.Natalie's wrist was held by him, a
Seeing that the woman wanted to leave after wiping his upper body, Oliver grabbed her wrist."Huh?" Natalie understood his intention, and the warmth on her face returned.She just want to brush his arm off.Natalie's hand rested on Oliver's waistband as she bit her lip.Several seconds passed before she could calm down her mind....Natalie's scalp was tingling, and she dared not lift her head, but she could clearly feel the man's gaze on her.The act of wiping him down was perfunctory, as if he just wanted to finish quickly!Natalie had just walked away when Oliver suddenly grabber her wrist.Her body instinctively reacted by raising her head in panic. As she raised up her head, her eyes met with Oliver’s seemingly smiling eyes. The color of his shallow brown eyes appeared deep like an unfathomable abyss."Natalie, you're blushing," Oliver said teasingly, pinching her chin to prevent her from moving back."Brother, don't do this..." Natalie blushed so much her eyes became red."You
As Natalie's voice grew softer with each word, her final two words were barely audible, like the sound of a mosquito. Oliver heard, but deliberately asked, "What?" "I'm asking why you've been kissing me so often lately?" Are you lonely? This is too absurd! With his left hand still holding her waist, Oliver kissed the corner of her mouth and watched as the woman's eyes widened in surprise. "I'm kissing my wife, is that not allowed?" "You..." When did you start considering me your wife? I don't want to be your wife. It's better if you treat me like a decoration! Natalie couldn't say these words. Her intuition told her that saying them would be equivalent to seeking death. She has always been sensitive to peoples’ emotions, and she could observed a subtle change in Oliver's attitude towards her. She doesn't know when she made him change his opinion of her. . Maybe it was because her cooking became his only remedy for anorexia... In any case, Natalie had became aware that Oli
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
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! Lily brought in Mrs. Watson to create a scene. It seems even the security guards didn't hear anything. If I hadn't made the call, they might not have come at all."What did she mean by "Lily brought in Mrs. Watson to create a scene"! Emily k
