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
It tasted like he was chewing wax."Mr. Windsor, is it delicious?" Cadence asked with twinkling eyes.Oliver took another bite of the salmon, his face completely darkening. "Did you make this?""Yes!" Cadence shyly replied, "But I don't cook often, so I'm not sure if it suits your taste."In fact, Cadence was confident in her skills. She had been practicing these dishes for the past three days and had received praise from the head chef before daring to show off to Oliver."No wonder it tastes so horrible."Oliver dropped his fork and knife, and as the utensils fell, the stainless steel clashed against the ceramic plates, making a piercing sound.Cadence's face turned pale."What about Natalie? Call her here," Oliver's face sank.Natalie was aimlessly walking in the garden, pretending not to notice Cadence. She was halfway there when a servant hurriedly called her back, saying that the young master was angry.Tension filled the dining room."Woman, do you want to starve me?" Oliver was
"If Mr. Aura doesn't want to cooperate anymore, just say it," Oliver said over the phone.Even through the phone, Mr. Aura could feel Oliver's powerful pressure and chilling hostility. Mr. Aura felt anxious in his heart.Initially, the Aura family agreed to become Oliver's vanguard because their company was experiencing serious tax issues, and Oliver resolved everything for them.From the very beginning, this deal was a plea from the Aura family to Oliver, not a fair collaboration.Oliver had the ability to save the Aura family from the crisis and then plunge them into a quagmire just as easily.Mr. Aura understood this more than anyone else!Suddenly awake, as if shocked, Mr. Aura broke out in a cold sweat. "I'm sorry! I'm sorry, Mr. Windsor. It was my mistake to interfere in your personal affairs!"Oliver didn't say another word and hung up the phone directly.Outside the window, the sky gradually fell silent as the scorching sun set behind the Western Mountains, leaving behind a sp
Natalie was surprised that he didn't ask for her help.But of course, she wouldn't bring it up either.She quickly pretended to know nothing, hypnotizing herself to fall asleep quickly, knowing that he wouldn't touch her again.The woman's breathing gradually became even and prolonged.Oliver touched his lower back and saw that wet liquid had seeped from the gauze.The wound had opened up.Silently, he got up and brought the medicine box into the bathroom, looking at himself in the mirror as he re-dressed the wound.Oliver looked at his reflection in the mirror, his lips slightlyswollen.He touched his lips, his tongue licking over his teeth, still able to taste that sweetness.The only downside was Oliver was increasingly looking forward to his injury healing.A total of twenty contestants made it to the finals of "Top Avenue." The finals were divided into three rounds, scheduled at three different time periods.Modeling competitions were not as popular as singing, dancing, and boy-g
"A fatal blow from her? Does she even deserve it?"Owen admitted that the woman named Natalie indeed had some innate advantages - she looked good, had a nice figure, and exuded a certain charm. But she still had a long way to go to compare with him!After Owen finished speaking, he looked meaningfully at Hailey. "Hailey, what should we do if it comes down to the two of us competing for the championship?""How is that even possible? I couldn't match your professional ability, Owen," Hailey replied with a smile. But in her heart, she was thinking, "Do you have the capability and influence to compete with me for the championship?"Hearing this, Owen smiled contentedly. The championship was naturally within her grasp.The runway was set up by the seaside, with the ground covered in gravel instead of soft sand, making it relatively flat to walk on.Eight judges sat in the best viewing area, while the audience watching the show sat on wooden benches with the backdrop of the reefs.Under the
Natalie's scalp tingled, and unconsciously, she moved her toes towards the direction of the door.She wanted to pretend that nothing had happened and slip away unnoticed.If the atmosphere wasn't so strange at this moment, she would have noticed the tumultuous waves underneath the seemingly cold and ruthless look on his face.With a resolute attitude, Natalie walked over, and the several executives who were blocking her path naturally made way for her."How...are you feeling?""Who are you asking?"Oliver wasn't satisfied with her dry response of "you."Natalie looked at her toes for a few seconds. Now wasn't the time to be coy, she still cared about his well-being. "How's your injury?""Mr. Windsor, you're injured?" one executive asked in surprise.Oliver stood tall, walked swiftly, and remained efficient in his work. He spoke at the meeting, making the group of people in their forties and fifties look as if they were going to cry. How could he look like a patient?Oliver responded w
"I saw Natalie being brought back in a car just now, seems like... a Rolls-Royce," one of the models by the window suddenly mentioned.The others exchanged glances, all revealing disdainful looks.See, she did go looking for a sugar daddy in the middle of the night. Three hours is plenty of time!Owen looked in the direction of Natalie's room, lost in thought, a calculating gleam flickering in his eyes.Natalie held her hand under the tap, letting the water run over it.The palm of her hand was rubbed red, and there were even some broken skin at the knuckles.As she washed, she cursed, "Oliver, you damn bastard! Oliver, you shameless jerk!"She had asked for three hours of leave, and that jerk actually dropped her off exactly after three hours.Natalie sighed, realizing more clearly the change in Oliver's attitude towards her, but she didn't know if it was good or bad. This person was truly dangerous, and so unpredictable.Later that night Oliver lay alone on the oversized bed, tossin
Natalie's performance this time was undoubtedly outstanding. Combined with her previous popularity at the autumn car exhibition, she gained many devoted fans, even surpassing Owen and Hailey in terms of attention.Some self-media even hailed Natalie as this year's strongest dark horse.Unfortunately, good times do not last long.Before long, a new topic climbed up the trending searches: "Wild Model Makes it to the 'Top Avenue' Finals, Stirring Up More than Just the Entertainment Circle!"Some netizens posted screenshots of the backstage footage—a ring falling out from Natalie's neckline and shining brightly under the lights.An anonymous tipster claimed, "This H-surnamed wild model was wearing simple clothes just two months ago and even worked part-time while still in school. It is evident that her life was not comfortable. However, the necklace in the screenshot has exquisite design and a pure pink diamond, estimated to be worth seven figures. Among the twenty models in the finals, e
