Who's the Substitute Now? Chapter 117
Natasha slammed the door so hard that she almost stumbled. She walked wobbly to the table and poured herself a glass of lemon water.Ever since Jacob disappeared from her life, she had become quieter, not showing much emotion.But now, anger surged within her like never before. It had been so long since she felt this furious. She couldn't even remember the last time she was this mad.Joshua's actions had genuinely gotten on her nerves. The cool lemon water helped soothe her and brought a bit of calmness to her breathing.Taking the stairs one step at a time, Natasha made her way to the villa's second floor.The window wall was covered by dark gray curtains. She pulled them aside, uncovering the expansive glass that allowed a peek into the outside world.Natasha longed to grasp Joshua's thoughts. His actions that day were completely different from what she knew of him. It felt like his intelligence took a nosedive the moment his first love reappeared.Resting against the couch, s

Ryan realized he hadn't been vigilant enough. That car parked near the lab had caught his attention that day, and now he wished he had been more attentive.A worried look crossed his face. If anything happened to Natasha in the lab, Zack would be furious, and Ryan would carry the weight of regret forever."I'm sorry, Professor. It's on me. The day I sent the authorization letter, I noticed a car outside the lab, but I didn't think much of it," Ryan confessed and owned up to his mistake.He added, "I'll strengthen the security and make sure no one gets into the lab without proper clearance."Natasha spoke casually, "Don't blame yourself. Joshua bribed the security at the side entrance and slipped into the lab from there. It makes sense that you didn't think anything of that car.""Joshua?" Ryan tightened his grip on the phone, his other hand instinctively forming a fist.Her words hit him unexpectedly. He hadn't expected Joshua to find the lab. He wondered whether it was related t

Natasha cast a cold gaze at Natalie and the familiar man next to her. It was clear that Natalie had put a lot of effort into dressing up.The two walked side by side toward the small building where she was located.Natalie was in good spirits. Her clear eyes were sparkling, and a smile tugged at the corners of her mouth. Obviously, she was very happy.Natasha raised an eyebrow.Why was Natalie so happy?Joshua had always set clear boundaries between his public and private affairs, and he never brought a female companion to any business-related events.This time, however, he unexpectedly brought Natalie to the exhibition to purchase medicinal herbs. On top of that, it was done so blatantly.Natasha had to give it to Natalie that it was indeed something worthy of Natalie's happiness.It seemed like first loves were different.She shook her head lightly, letting out a soft, mocking laugh.As she was contemplating, Natalie and Joshua had closed the distance between them and her i

Only industry experts would know that Fragaland also produced juniper berries.Unlike Cloud City, Fragaland was more humid, so the color of the juniper berries was closer to dark green.Hence, it was more suitable to be processed with modern medicine into capsules.The supplier took a look at the woman in front of him. While she seemed knowledgeable, he could tell at a glance that she was not a company's president.Based on his estimation, she would probably just buy a few pounds.After carefully examining the quality, Natasha said nonchalantly. "Hm, let me place an order for 500 pounds first.""500 pounds?"He wondered if he had heard her wrongly.Natasha also selected a few more types of medicinal herbs that had a wider range of uses. "I'll take these herbs as well.""What? Do you want those in the same amount too?" he asked in a trembling voice."Yes, that's right. Let's start with this amount. If I see good results, I'll make another order."The supplier felt a little di

Furrowing his brows, Joshua continued walking forward, gradually moving away from Natalie.His eagerness to obtain the letter of authorization had blocked out Natalie's urgent calling.As he drew closer and closer to the woman in front of him, he was able to clearly see the material of her black dress. There were small white pearls on her velvet dress.Suddenly, a delicate hand caught hold of him, and he turned around."Josh, why are you suddenly running so fast? I can't keep up with you."Natalie panted slightly as she shot him a pitiful look.Her miniskirt was a little wrinkled from running, and the two silver earrings hanging from her ears were swaying."I have something to do. You stay here," Joshua answered, frowning before gently brushing away her hand.When Natasha heard the hurried footsteps behind her, she was about to turn around on reflex.However, before she did that, she heard Natalie's coquettish voice, calling, "Josh!"Joshua Grayson?Had she been discovered s

Natalie only noticed the woman standing beside him when she reached him. The woman was flushed, and her posture was awkward."Josh, who is this?" Natalie frowned tightly.Joshua replied nonchalantly, "She's the person the Grayson Corporation is looking for."Natalie instantly thought of Professor Nancy, whom Joshua had been searching for with great effort.Did Professor Nancy look like that?Natalie coldly scanned the woman in front of her, her keen intuition telling her that the woman had feelings for Joshua.She sensed a looming threat."So… are you going to discuss business now?""Yes."Natalie frowned slightly at the woman. Considering the woman's identity, she couldn't make her dislike too obvious.However, she couldn't just sit back and watch Joshua be with another woman, either."Can I come along?" Natalie asked.Queenie hesitantly looked up at Joshua."I can be of help," Natalie added.Joshua remained silent.Natalie turned to Queenie, pleading with a pitiful gaz

Natasha watched Natalie in silence, feeling that something was off.How could Natalie be a member of the Sullivan family? How could she know Zack?Hearing what Natalie said, Joshua's eyes flashed with surprise.Suppressing his excitement, he asked, "You know Zack? Are you sure you're talking about Radiance Biomed's president, Zack Lynch, and not someone with the same name?"Having gone through the incident regarding the letter of authorization, his words were filled with wariness.As Natalie had given him a fake letter of authorization, their collaboration discussions with Havenfield International Hospital had failed. They had even offended Marcus.In Joshua's eyes, the incident had been intentionally caused by Natasha and wasn't Natalie's fault. Still, it served as a reminder to him that he had to be cautious about whatever Natalie said, even if she was sincere about it.He had always set clear boundaries between his public and private matters.Natalie nodded with a firm gaze.

A single purchase could be worth a few million dollars.Most of the suppliers at the exhibition knew each other. Hence, word spread quickly.Everyone knew that a certain big boss, whose extravagant spending far exceeded that of Grayson Corporation's president, had visited the exhibition that day.Soon, evening arrived, and the ancient town was illuminated with lights.Along the ten-mile-long street, rows of brownstone buildings with bay windows were adorned with lights. They cast a warm orange glow that made the place rather beautiful.Natasha walked amidst the bustling crowd.It had been a long time since she had walked in such a beautiful place.The town adorned with many lights had an inexplicable charm—anyone in the town felt happy.However, Natasha didn't feel the slightest bit of comfort.The more lively and bustling her surroundings were, the lonelier she felt.The louder the noises and voices around her, the emptier and quieter her world seemed. There was a stark cont
