Semua Bab Opening My Eyes to Reality: Bab 51 - Bab 60

Natalie looked at Sienna, lips curling into a smirk, her eyes alight with quiet amusement. "It's me. Disappointed?"In the three years she'd been married to Jason, Natalie had barely stepped outside Avon Villa. He'd never brought her along to meet friends or attend banquets.And the Spencers? Once Sienna returned, they'd acted like she was their only daughter, as if Natalie didn't exist. No surprise, then, that hardly anyone even recognized her face.But wasn't the wife Jason had been searching for all over the world these past three months named Natalie Spencer? So, Amanda was the ex-wife who'd kicked Jason to the curb?No wonder she came all this way to sabotage the exhibition. This was payback against Sienna, the woman who stole Jason from her.The crowd, never one to hold back, exploded in outrage. Someone jabbed a finger at Sienna and shouted, "We almost forgot that you're the one who broke up a family! How dare you have the nerve to hold a solo exhibition after that?""She'

After seeing Sadie off, Natalie wasn't in a hurry to head back. Bella's flight would land in an hour, so she might as well wait and pick her up.Natalie sat in the car, absently scrolling through her phone. Every app was filled with news about today's art exhibition.Sienna must've thought her solo art exhibition would be her big comeback. She never would've guessed it would ruin her instead.Meanwhile, Amanda's identity had been exposed. Every major news outlet was splashing the story across their headlines.This time, Natalie had won completely.Before long, Benjamin called and insisted that the three of them go out that night to celebrate properly until they were good and drunk.Natalie was in a great mood, and with Bella back in Dexia, there was no reason to refuse. Such nights, when she could truly let loose, didn't come around often.Right on time, Bella appeared at the airport's automatic doors. She ripped off her sunglasses and immediately launched herself at Natalie wit

Jason was here.When Natalie stepped out in public today, she'd already prepared herself for the chance he might track her down. Even so, his sudden appearance took her by surprise.The stars shimmered faintly in the night sky. Moonlight spilled over the darkness, casting a silver glow on Natalie as she stood there, her delicate features striking under its pale light.Jason had never expected the woman who once orbited him like a satellite to shine so brightly, least of all in that video, where Natalie glowed like a star with every eye fixed on her.They'd shared a bed for three years, yet the Natalie before him now felt both intimately familiar and unsettlingly unknown.Jason's heart sank. The Natalie standing before him now felt like someone he could never truly reach again.His chest tightened as he fought back the wave of longing. He took a careful step forward, not wanting to scare her off. Eyes glistening with emotion, he whispered, "Natalie, I finally found you."He reach

Lately, Natalie had been living a pretty relaxed life. Out of all the interview requests she'd gotten, she'd only chosen one, setting it for three days later.Once Sadie settled down, she checked in with Natalie to confirm she'd arrived safely. So far, everything was going exactly as planned.Natalie stayed in her hotel, catching up on the latest financial news. Spencer Group's stock price had crashed in the wake of Sienna's scandal, wiping out hundreds of millions of dollars within days.That was no small loss for the Spencers. Hugh would definitely pin all the blame on Sienna.A moment later, Natalie's phone buzzed. She checked it and saw a message from the private investigator asking to meet at a nearby cafe.Natalie got up from the couch, grabbed a simple white outfit from her suitcase, and changed quickly before heading out.The cafe was only a ten-minute walk from the hotel. When she pushed the door open, she noticed a man in a black baseball cap sitting at a table in the b

Natalie's brows furrowed sharply, her eyes turning dark. "She's your grandma, Sienna. Have some respect."Without another word, she pushed past Sienna and strode inside. She hadn't come to the Spencer residence to deal with her. Vera was the only reason she was there.As Natalie stepped into the house, Sienna's lips curled into a sinister smile. She couldn't wait to see how long Natalie's smugness would last.Natalie hurried toward the staircase. She was just about to take the first step when Daphne appeared at the top, coming down.Something about Daphne seemed different today—her sharp, biting tone was gone. "Vera just fell asleep, Natalie. Don't go up there now. Wait until she wakes up."Natalie's eyes stayed fixed on the upper floor, her feet rooted in place.Seeing her hesitation, Daphne tried to cozy up to her. "Since you've come all this way, you might as well stay for dinner. The kitchen's already made the meal. With Victor and your dad gone, it's just me and Sienna. The
