Opening My Eyes to Reality Chapter 200
Rowan, who was just about to take a step forward, paused. He glanced sideways at Natalie.She didn't avoid his gaze, instead meeting it head-on. At the same time, Landon, showing exceptional tact this time, quietly tiptoed out of the elevator first.And as Landon snuck out, the elevator doors closed behind him.The small space felt eerily silent—so silent that one could hear a pin drop.After a long moment, Rowan spoke softly, "Ms. Sutton, our partnership has ended, hasn't it?"Natalie's face fell, and she clenched her fists instinctively. Truthfully, she hadn't planned on pursuing the matter at first. But when she saw him, it was like her mouth had a mind of its own and just blurted it out. Thinking about it now, she knew it had been a little impolite.She pressed her lips together as her eyes dimmed. "You're right, Mr. Mattel."In Rowan's eyes, they were nothing but collaborators. And now that the collaboration had ended, there indeed wasn't any reason to keep in touch. She

Andrew poured a glass of wine for Rowan. Trying to butter him up, he said, "It's truly an honor that you wanted to meet with me, Mr. Mattel. I wonder what I can do for you?"Rowan's eyes appeared as deep and vast as a boundless starry sky. He picked up the wine glass and gave him a flippant glance. "I hear that Borya Financial's IPO application was rejected?"Andrew mused to himself, "Huh? So that's what this is about? But when we met in the hallway earlier, the two clearly didn't know each other."He was puzzled. "Borya Financial was rejected because some of their conditions didn't meet the IPO requirements. Why the sudden interest in them, Mr. Mattel?"Rowan's voice dropped low, and he raised an eyebrow. "Is that not acceptable?"That startled Andrew so much that he hurriedly backtracked, "No, no! That's not what I meant…"Rowan didn't continue. Instead, Landon took over for him. "Mr. Dreyfus, it doesn't matter how much money you've taken from Garich Finance—Borya Finance is so

Even after more than two weeks, Rowan remained as striking as ever, with his statuesque figure clad in a black suit.Natalie noticed that he seemed to have lost a lot of weight, and his complexion was even paler than before.She stared at him, but the cold, distant expression on his face made her wonder if she had mistaken him for someone else. It was as if they were complete strangers.She instinctively furrowed her brows, and that was when she heard Zane say, "Natalie, I know that person, so I'm just going to go say hi."Zane knew him?Then, she saw Zane approach Andrew, the chairman of the SEC, otherwise known as the Securities and Exchange Commission. He greeted politely, "Mr. Dreyfus, I didn't expect to see you here."Although Andrew had blocked Zane's listing attempt, he still made sure to keep up appearances. Smiling, he said, "Yes, what a coincidence. Are you here on a date with your girlfriend, Mr. Aetos?"At that, Rowan's eyes narrowed, and his sharp gaze immediately s

"Landon," Rowan started."Yes, Mr. Mattel?"Rowan continued walking forward slowly. "When you get a chance, schedule a meeting with Andrew Dreyfus at the SEC."Landon was stunned. "Mr. Mattel, you're not thinking of helping Zane get his finance company listed, are you? What are you thinking?"Rowan had his reasons. If he couldn't protect Natalie for the rest of her life, then he needed to find someone who could. He would only have peace of mind knowing that she would lead a good life. He didn't respond, but his intentions were perfectly clear.There was nothing Landon could say to change Rowan's mind. Rowan was outstanding in every way—except when it came to how blinded by love he could be.Previously, Rowan had stayed in Grendale for so long just because he wanted to help her fulfill her wishes and clear every obstacle from her path. But once everything had settled, he left quietly, as if he had never been there in the first place.Two weeks ago, Landon was the one who blocke

It wasn't until Natalie disappeared into the elevator that Rowan finally withdrew his gaze.Beside him, Landon said softly, "Ms. Sutton is in Velmont, too, Mr. Mattel. But… I don't think I've ever seen the man who went into the elevator with her, though."At that, Rowan's brows furrowed instinctively, his eyes darkening. "Look into him.""Yes, sir. I'll get someone on it right away. But Dr. Brook is expecting you soon. Shouldn't we head over now?"Rowan glanced over in the direction Natalie had disappeared off to again, his fists clenching so tightly that his knuckles cracked. His frustration and indignation seemed like they were about to burst out of him.But in the end, he didn't do anything except say, "Let's go."Emile Brook was Rowan's primary physician. Ever since Rowan had been diagnosed with his mysterious illness, Emile had been the one solely in charge of his case. After Rowan completed a full set of tests, Emile reviewed the reports in silence, unsure how to deliver

Natalie agreed immediately, "Okay."Now that they were on the same page, she quickly texted Catherine back.Catherine was thrilled, and she couldn't stop expressing her affection for her over the phone. In the end, the two decided to leave the day after tomorrow.Natalie told Susan about her upcoming trip to Velmont. She had planned to bring Susan along, but the latter declined. She said she was getting too old for long-distance travel.Since Susan didn't want to go, Natalie didn't push it either. However, things might get boring for Susan if she stayed at home alone every day, so Natalie made the decision and signed her up for senior courses at a community college so her days could be more fulfilling.The day to depart for Velmont soon arrived. David dropped Catherine off at the airport and waited until they passed through security before leaving.David still had work to do in Grendale, so he couldn't accompany Catherine. At first, he had been a little uneasy about her traveling
