Chapter 102

Author: Bodhi Blossom
Natalie turned to Susan, her eyes wide in shock and her expression frozen on her face.

That was when Daphne started screaming. "Lies! Who do you think you are? Why would he need to force himself on you? You were the one who seduced him, and now you're trying to shift the blame!"

Benjamin helped the frail Susan to her feet and led her toward Daphne. Her steadfast gaze concealed years of silent endurance as she defended, "Every word I've said is the truth. I've never seduced Hugh. He forced himself on me…"

That hit a nerve for Daphne. She raised a hand, ready to strike Susan, but this time, she didn't succeed. Natalie had stepped in front of her, intercepting it.

"Mrs. Spencer, that's enough," she warned coldly.

Then, she went to help Susan. Her voice instinctively softened as she said, "I'll take you to the hospital."

Tears welled up in Susan's eyes. She nodded, choking out a quiet grunt before the three of them walked right past Daphne and went out the door.

  • Opening My Eyes to Reality   Chapter 122

    Bella pulled the car up to the nearest hospital, and at the same time, the top medical specialists from Grendale were already arriving. One by one, renowned experts gathered at the otherwise nondescript little hospital, causing a stir among the entire medical staff. Doctors and nurses peeked in from every corner, eager for a chance to observe or maybe even learn something from the incoming masters of their fields. What none of them expected was that the patient in question only had a fractured arm and a mild concussion.That was nothing they couldn't handle themselves. Why in the world had a full team of top-tier specialists been summoned for such a minor case? Natalie lay on the bed. Rowan and Landon escorted the doctors back out, leaving just Bella and Natalie alone.Bella had wanted to ask earlier but didn't dare while Rowan was in the room. Now that he was gone, she finally had the chance—and she wasn't about to waste it. She crossed one leg over the other and leaned back

    The first lap ended in a dead heat. All three riders were evenly matched, none giving the other an inch. On the sidelines, Bella could hardly contain her excitement, her fists clenched in thrill as she watched the race unfold. A few feet behind her, Landon stood under the shade of an umbrella, holding it carefully over Rowan. His eyes were fixed on the field as he remarked with genuine admiration, "Didn't expect Ms. Sutton to be this skilled in equestrian, Mr. Mattel. "That's the first time I've seen a woman ride with such command. I wonder who taught her." The words had barely left his mouth when Rowan's cold, piercing gaze cut across the distance and landed squarely on him. Landon froze. Had he said something wrong again? These days, it felt like Rowan's moods shifted with the wind. Landon wisely chose to fall silent. Perhaps saying nothing was the safest choice. Out on the field, Natalie and David had begun to pull ahead of Xavier. The two horses galloped side by side, w

    Natalie had, indeed, forgotten to bring her riding habit, but this was the only choice she could make under those circumstances.She sent Bella a text and had the latter stall David with topics he found interesting so he wouldn't grow bored. If he grew bored, waiting for Natalie would only annoy him, and that wouldn't bode well for her plans.About ten minutes later, Natalie returned to the premium racecourse to converge with Bella. She wore a pure-black equestrian outfit. The tailored riding jacket accentuated her slender silhouette, and the black riding helmet brought out her chiseled, delicate features."I'm done, Mr. Earhart," Natalie announced.She had admittedly stunned a few others with her getup, especially Xavier. Something other than admiration filled his eyes—lust. It was the kind of primal attraction that men usually had for beautiful women.Xavier and Natalie had dated for many years, and he'd always known she was beautiful. But they'd never gone all the way, not that

    Bella planted her hands on her hips and laughed at Xavier's delusional statement. "Don't worry. That won't happen! Natalie's too smart to make the same mistake."A stormy look clouded Xavier's face while Natalie sputtered. The former was about the retort when he saw David leading a horse toward them. "David's here! Don't worry, Natalie. I'll put in a good word for you!"With that, Xavier hurried over to David.Bella was rendered speechless by Xavier's eagerness to impress. She drawled mockingly, "It's not like we asked him for a favor."Natalie was a lot more composed. "Ignore him."When the two ladies approached David, Xavier was still in the middle of exchanging pleasantries with him. He'd introduced himself to David, but the latter was still baffled. "I'm sorry. I'm afraid I don't remember you."Xavier blinked awkwardly. When he caught Natalie and Bella holding back their laughter, he began to blush. "We met at the finance symposium about half a year ago, Mr. Earhart. But wi

    The racecourse was several dozen miles out of the city, and the sun was blazing when Bella and Natalie arrived.After parking the car, Natalie and Bella were led to the premium racecourse by one of the staffers. Only the best equestrians could race in that course.The sun was high in the sky, and a faint breeze cooled the otherwise stifling weather. Bella surveyed the course but did not see David anywhere. "Natalie, I'll give David a call.""Okay," Natalie said.Bella found a quiet corner to make the call while Natalie stayed behind and waited. Just then, she spotted a familiar figure—Xavier.She frowned as she turned away instinctively, but Xavier saw her anyway. She heard him call out across the distance, "Natalie!"Before she knew it, he was already making his way toward her and asking enthusiastically, "I didn't think I'd run into you here, Natalie! Did you choose this racecourse on purpose?"Xavier was a passionate equestrian and had taught Natalie everything she knew about

    Sienna let out a breath and said solemnly, "Victor, the truth is, Natalie is the child Dad had with Susan…"Ten minutes later, Victor stood in place, his mind blank.A while later, Sienna followed up with, "Susan seduced Dad and gave birth to Natalie. She even swapped me and Sienna at birth! And now, Natalie's always trying to one-up me and go against me in everything I do."My reputation is ruined, and Xavier is constantly hounding me about the divorce. I don't understand how Natalie and Susan could be so cruel, Victor."Tears welled up in Sienna's eyes as she continued miserably, "I don't know how I can keep going on like this, Victor. And I feel terrible for Mom. What if Susan and Natalie are after Spencer Group and want to claim it for themselves? What will we do then?"Victor looked grave, his brows drawn together as he pulled Sienna into his arms and comforted her, "Don't worry, Sienna. I'm here. I'll never let anyone hurt you or Mom."…Meanwhile, Natalie had already arri
