Since Natasha had already signed the divorce agreement, what was Joshua waiting for? Did he not want to divorce her?Natasha noticed Natalie's unease with a single glance, but she didn't expose her. "It's enough that I've said it. In the future, don't get the wrong idea that I'm the one clinging on to Joshua."Natalie frowned and said, "Then, why are you studying pharmaceuticals?"Natasha replied nonchalantly, "The reason I'm studying pharmaceuticals is to pursue my PhD studies under Dr. Nancy. This bag of medicinal herbs is also to enhance my knowledge in pharmaceuticals."As for why I appeared in this building, I heard that there's an exhibition in town, so I came to have a look at the herbs."Natasha poured out her explanation in one breath as she did not want Natalie to overthink things and cause more trouble for her. The reason why Natasha said that she wanted to pursue her PhD under Nancy was that it could explain her appearance in Nancy's laboratory.After all, she had r
"Of course." Natalie couldn't hide the pride on her face.After saying this, she pointed her nose into the air and gave Natasha a haughty look. Her arrogance and conceitedness were evident."How about it? Don't you want to beg me? It's just a matter of putting in a good word for you to get a job in Radiance Biomed," Natalie said.She sat down on a nearby chair, crossed her slender legs, and propped her chin up as she looked smugly at Natasha.Natasha listened to Natalie's arrogant words.At first glance, there appeared to be no change in expression on Natasha's beautiful face. However, it seemed like Natasha was contemplating something upon closer inspection.Natalie's demeanor didn't seem like she was lying."What, are you unwilling?" Seeing that Natasha remained silent, Natalie twirled her hair around a finger and continued nonchalantly, "You know, I come from a prestigious family of doctors in Topola. It is an honor for you to beg me for a favor."My demands aren't high. I j
"Even if you are a member of the Sullivan family, that doesn't have anything to do with you knowing Zack." Natasha looked indifferently at Natalie.Natalie retorted, "It's no wonder that you are an orphan. Judging by your ignorance, you probably don't understand the influence that the Sullivans hold in Topola."For members of the Sullivan family, it is easy to be acquainted with any company's president. Many companies are eager to strike up a deal with the Sullivans! A mere president of Radiance Biomed is no big deal."The more Natalie spoke, the more excited she became.Natasha's expression remained calm as she looked at Natalie, who was clearly agitated. "Oh."Her tone was flat and without a hint of emotion. She sounded as if what Natalie said earlier didn't affect her in the slightest.Natalie was dumbfounded. Natasha shouldn't be reacting in this manner!Under normal circumstances, people would try to strike up a conversation with her when they found out that she was from th
Natasha furrowed her brows. Why did Zack answer Natalie's video call so quickly? Conversely, he did not pick up even one of her urgent phone calls.What a fair-weather friend he was!Wasn't Zack supposed to be busy healing from his emotional trauma? Was this what he meant?Natasha stood behind Natalie and stared at the phone screen with an insincere smile on her face.Natalie was holding the phone in her hand. At the moment when the video call was connected, she couldn't help but glance at Natasha.She did not try to hide the triumphant and mocking expression on her face.Zack actually answered her call! That day, she was determined to make Natasha open her eyes and see for herself!Natalie brought the phone closer to her face and put on a bright smile. Her eyes sparkled as she looked at Zack, who was on screen. "I—"Before Natalie could speak, her sentence was interrupted by Zack's voice."Natty…" His voice was as gentle as the spring breeze. Zack's tone was completely differ
"Zack, I have something to ask you…" Natalie wanted to finish her sentence."Alright, go ahead." Zack suppressed his curiosity and focused his gaze on Natalie. The grim expression on Natasha's face was so fierce that he didn't dare to speak to her at all.Natalie altered her facial expression and chose her words carefully. "Zack, I have a friend who wants to work in Radiance Biomed…"Zack frowned at her words.Natalie pulled Natasha closer and continued, "It's this friend of mine who wants to work there. Is it possible for her to enter Radiance Biomed?"Stumbling, Natasha almost fell when Natalie pulled her abruptly and forced her to stand in front of the camera. Natasha looked at Zack and gave him an insincere smile, but her eyes were emotionless.Startled, Zack exclaimed when he saw Natasha stumble, "Hey, be careful. Don't be hasty."However, the concern behind his words sounded irritating to Natasha. Since when was Zack so polite and caring? Could it be that he wanted to leav
Natasha gave her a sardonic look."I got you into Radiance today, so now you owe me a favor!" Natalie thought for a moment before speaking.Natasha raised an eyebrow, and her tone was inscrutable. "I owe you a favor? What do you want from a lone orphan like me? I don't even know how I could ever repay you in the future."Natalie sneered. She raised her eyebrow and gave her a sidelong glance."You do have some self-awareness. Well, what you said is true. You, a poor orphan, have nothing to offer me. Even if you did, I wouldn't be interested."In fact, Natalie didn't even know which man gave that ring last time to Natasha. Even if Natasha gave that pink diamond to her, she would still find it dirty. "How about this? From now on, keep your distance from Joshua!" Natalie's big eyes twinkled as she added, "No. I mean, never appear at Grayson Corporation or in front of the Grayson family again!"This is the price for me helping you get into Radiance. Otherwise, if I can get you in, I
"Don't you know Natalie?" Natasha pounced on Zack's words."Natalie? Who is she? Is she the one who was blocking the screen all along?" Zack responded with questions.Natasha narrowed her eyes. "Don't play dumb with me. If you know her, just say so. You said you don't know her, so how did she get your number? She even called you so intimately." "I really don't know her." Zack blinked his affectionate eyes. "Many people have my number. I can't even remember who I've given it to."Upon hearing his words, Natasha expressed uncertainty. "Really?""It's true, but this woman does bear a resemblance to you," Zack said as he stroked his chin.Natasha gave a faint acknowledgment and said, "She's Joshua's…"However, halfway through her sentence, she halted. She figured she no longer had a connection to the Grayson family, so there was no need to bring it up with Zack.Zack didn't catch Natasha's hesitation and kept talking, "She looked somewhat familiar… I think I remember now. I met he
Natasha looked at the text message and blinked.Initially, she had hoped to distract herself by reading the message, forcing herself to detach from her emotions. However, seeing that the message was from Joshua only made her feel worse.No matter how important the matter was, it had nothing to do with her. In the end, she put her phone back on the desk.Natasha got up and walked downstairs to pour herself a cup of coffee, hoping to calm herself down.She put a scoop of coffee powder into the cup and diluted it with water. The coffee's fragrance wafted through the air, bringing a sense of tranquility.After finishing her coffee, Natasha sat back at her desk. She took some glue and carefully stuck her leather-bound notebook back together.She was a perfectionist, and the paper in the notebook was thin, so she had to focus to ensure the paper was stuck back in its original form.Her phone vibrated repeatedly on the side, and the sound echoed through the silent villa. The continuous
