All Chapters of Opening My Eyes to Reality: Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

When Victor left the auction earlier, Sienna had been planning to leave with him. But just as she came out of the hall, she caught sight of Jason. She gave Victor a quick word and immediately turned back. From that moment until the very end of the auction, Sienna had been quietly trailing behind Jason.And just now, when Natalie smashed the jewelry box into his face, she finally saw the perfect opportunity to step in. Concerned, she rushed forward. "Jason, you're bleeding! There's so much blood. I'll take you to the hospital right now." But Jason didn't say a word. He didn't even care about the wound on his forehead. All of his attention was still fixed on Natalie.After a long silence, he bent down to pick up the Ocean's Heart, now lying shattered on the floor. "It's fine if you don't like this. Just tell me what you like, and I'll find it for you—whatever it is." Natalie let out a short, cold laugh. Her eyes were sharp with scorn. "Has it ever occurred to you that I don't l

Natalie had dated Xavier for years—long enough that she was familiar with all his drinking buddies. Some even joked around and called her Xavier's wife. Now, with the way things stood between her and Xavier, "Natalie" felt far more accurate. Her face darkened, and her voice dropped low. "Back off." The man in the floral shirt stood up, crossing his arms, a cocky smirk tugging at his lips. "Natalie, unless you give Xavier an explanation tonight, don't even think about walking out of here with your friend." There was no way Bella had gotten this drunk on her own. They must've slipped something into her drink.And Xavier? He had clearly orchestrated the entire setup to lure her there. Realizing that, Natalie slowly turned, scanning the crowd. And there he was. Surrounded by women, soaking in his false sense of glory—Xavier.When he noticed her eyes on him, he smiled. "Natalie. So you finally noticed me. I was starting to think you'd never look back." There was a trace of bit

There wasn't a trace of fear in Natalie's eyes, only cold, calculated calm. She had planned all of this, after all.And in that moment, realization dawned on Xavier. He finally understood why Natalie hadn't left with Bella earlier. Why she'd suddenly released him at just the right moment. He clenched his jaw, hatred flashing in his eyes. "You set me up," he hissed. Well, what did he expect? That she'd sit back and let him humiliate her? That she'd deserve it? The lead officer didn't waste time. "Take him away."The once-raucous private room emptied into silence as the officers dragged Xavier out, his face livid with disbelief. Natalie calmly fixed her hair, straightened her dress, and gave a detailed account of the incident to the officers.A female officer pulled out her notepad, jotting everything down. "Ms. Sutton, we may contact you for a follow-up. Thank you for cooperating." Natalie brushed at her damp lashes. "Thank you. If you hadn't arrived in time, I… I don't kno

At that moment, there was something wild and untamed about Natalie—a seductive defiance that made Scarface hesitate.His lackey leaned in and whispered, "Boss, look at those two—probably just a horny couple hooking up in the backseat. Rowan got shot, right? No way he'd have the strength to pull this off. And there's no blood smell in the car. "Besides, that woman's attitude? Doesn't look like she's lying. If we get tangled up with her and lose him, that'd be a real waste."Scarface frowned. That logic made sense. But he still wanted to be sure. He needed to see the man's face. He'd rather make a mistake and kill the wrong person than let Rowan slip away. He reached for the door handle. Just then, a group of young men stormed out of The Specular. They spotted the smashed windows and the men with weapons. "Are you the assholes who trashed our cars? You got a death wish?" The blaring alarms had drawn a crowd. And in a place like this, the crowd wasn't just anyone. There were hei

There was nothing more helpful than those words. Landon sprang into action. Soon, he returned with a well-stocked medical kit—every bandage and antiseptic one could imagine. But the most critical item, anesthetic, was missing.He found a sharp dagger and sterilized it thoroughly. But when he leaned in toward the wound, his hand shook uncontrollably. He couldn't bring himself to start. Natalie, urgency flaring in her voice, demanded, "What are you hesitating for?" With a shaking grip on the dagger, Landon stuttered, "I've stitched up Magnus before, but I've never pulled a bullet. And this is Mr. Mattel…" Rowan lay on the bed, his breathing shallow and weak. He glared at Landon and muttered, "You coward…" Landon nodded, admitting to his fear. But Rowan's status only made the task more daunting. Then, he called out softly, "Natalie, you do it." Natalie looked at him sharply. He seemed completely serious. "You're insane," she said. "But I trust you," he replied. Their
