Amber’s face was ghastly pale when she saw Natasha. She recognized her as she had seen her photo in the file.The world seemed so small.She had never imagined, even in her wildest dream, that Natasha would become the heroine of the Picmotion drama series. She was afraid that Natasha would seduce Sean.The Watson family wouldn’t have asked Sean to opt for surrogacy to have a child if it were not for the fact that she couldn’t get pregnant. If the situation were not like that, Natasha would never have had the chance to get close to Sean, not to mention carrying his child.Amber was under treatment ever since. Sadly, Sean had not touched her in the past six years.She grew increasingly restless. She was afraid that Sean would bring Natasha home and kick her out of his life.The fear in her mind transformed into rage quickly. She kept glaring at Natasha. If fierce gazes could burn someone, Natasha would have turned into ash by now.Oblivious to Amber’s scorching gaze, Natasha directed he
Sean was shocked to see a boy who resembled his son. His grip around her slackened.Their height, their facial features, eye color, and even their temperament were the same.Sean gaped at him, speechless, not even batting his eyelashes. He couldn’t even say if he was breathing. He felt like lightning had struck him. Time and space seemed to be frozen.The baby he assumed was dead was still alive! And she, Natasha, took him away and hid him for six years!‘How dare she hide my son from me?’The shock quickly transformed into rage. He directed his fiery gaze at Natasha and snapped, "You… How dare you keep my son away from me? How could you?"Natasha trembled under his burning gaze. She stepped back, her chest swelled and deflated quickly. Her lower lip quivered as she tried to say something. But her voice didn’t come out of her throat."Mommy, who is this man? Why is he yelling at you?"Natasha’s heart dropped to her stomach at Jack’s question. She was not sure whether to tell him the t
Sean walked around the private chamber, glancing at Nia disdainfully. He took his seat on a single sofa with his right elbow on the armrest and one leg crossed over the other. He exuded an aura of authority and power that made those around him tremble in fear.Nia stared at him, mouth agape. She had heard a lot about how arrogant the producer, Sean Watson, was, but never knew that he was so intimidating.Sean Watson was not only the producer of the drama series. He was the owner of Picmotion as well. He owned The Crescent, a hotel and resort chain with branches all over East Asia. He also invested in several large- and small-scale businesses.Nia wondered how she caught the attention of such an influential man.Was he interested in her? Did he intend to give her a big break?She grew excited as soon as this thought crossed her mind. She would like to do anything to please him to get a big role in one of the Picmotion drama series or movies. Furthermore, Sean was a handsome man, the de
It was already dusk when Natasha arrived at her uncle’s house. Brandon was a bit surprised to see them coming all of a sudden. He welcomed them warmly."Hey, little champ. Did you miss me?" He lifted Jack into his arms."Um, a bit."Brandon burst out laughing. "I miss you a lot. I wish you two would stay with us.""We are going to have a big house soon. You can go there and stay with us." Jack would never have stayed here if his mother had not insisted on it. He was unhappy. But he managed to grin."Hahaha…" Brandon laughed loudly. "Of course." He gave Natasha a quizzical look. "Did you get a role?" He asked, putting Jack on his feet."Hmm…" Natasha nodded. "They selected me for the lead role.""Oh…" Brandon nodded as he realized what Jack meant when he said they were moving into a bigger house. Since Natasha was selected as a heroine, her financial problems would be solved. She would be able to buy a house."It’s… it’s amazing." Brandon smiled, but his smile didn’t reach his eyes.He
Later that night…Caroline and Nia stealthily entered the guest room when everyone went to sleep. They ducked and slowly approached the cupboard.The light of the room was dim. The air was cold and thick with the heavy breathing of Natasha and Jack. Watching Natasha sleeping so peacefully, Caroline’s mouth twisted. She wanted to strangle her to death.Her legs collided with the bedside table since her focus was on Natasha. The empty glass on the table shook.Nia grabbed the glass before it fell to the floor. "Mommy," she hissed, squeezing her arm. "Do you want to wake them up? Be careful.""Uh, uh… I will be careful." Caroline assured her and proceeded towards the cupboard.She opened the cupboard slowly."Be quick," Nia urged, looking back at Natasha. Her heart leaped to her mouth when she saw her moving to the other side. The phone almost slipped from her grip."What are you doing?" Caroline hissed. "It’s dark. I can’t see anything.""Okay, okay." Nia directed the phone's flashlight
Easton brought Natasha to a boutique.From the outside, the shop looked lavish. Tall, large windows brightened up the entire shop. ‘Rose and Petals’ was written in italics at the entrance.Easton pushed the heavy glass door open and motioned for her to enter. Natasha walked in, a little self-conscious as she looked at the immaculate saleswoman greeting them. She smiled at her awkwardly."Show her some dresses," Easton said in a commanding tone."Of course, Sir. Please have a seat." The saleswoman beckoned for him to sit on the white sofa. "This way, ma’am." She motioned for Natasha to come along.Natasha followed the woman while Easton sat on the sofa.The saleswoman showed her different dresses. Some were short, while the others were long gowns. Some of the dresses were far too revealing. Although everything looked fancy, nothing could grab Natasha’s attention. After turning her down more than ten times, Natasha felt awkward. The saleswoman’s disdainful look also didn’t go unnoticed
Natasha looked like a heavenly beauty in that white gown, which flowed freely from the waist into flares. The hem reached to the floor. Fine thread work made the dress even more exquisite.The dress left the top of her shoulders uncovered, but it covered the sides and flowed down into a beautiful V-neckline. It wrapped her upper body perfectly, elegantly accentuating her curves.Her arms were left uncovered, displaying her sleek, flawless skin. She undoubtedly looked stunning.Sean couldn’t take his eyes off of her. But his gaze gradually turned cold when he sensed every pair of eyes in the shop glued to her. It made him annoyed.Natasha was only his, and he had the right to admire her beauty. It was only he who would buy her a dress.His annoyance soon transformed into boiling fury when he noticed Easton praising her. He didn't like it when Easton got close to Natasha. His face hardened as he shot him a stern glare.Sean beckoned to a saleswoman and hissed, "Ask her to change the dre
The banquet had started as soon as the sun set on the horizon. Several actors and actresses walked the red carpet, posing for photographers. Their smiles shone brighter than the flashes of the cameras.Amy walked up to the red carpet, grabbing everyone’s attention. She wore a golden, backless mermaid gown, which wrapped her body perfectly. She looked stunning. She smiled and posed in front of the cameras.All the cameras turned to Easton and Natasha when they walked into the venue. Everyone started mumbling about the new heroine and couldn't stop praising her beauty.Natasha’s eyes dazzled under the flashing of the lights. It was her first time walking on the red carpet. She was not used to being the center of attention. She was nervous. Her knees were shaking.She subconsciously clutched Easton’s hand.Easton interlaced his fingers with hers and gave her a warm smile.Natasha breathed a sigh of relief as she returned his smile. She walked into the banquet hall with a lot of confidenc
