Chapter 108 Announcing the Engagement
Oliver held Natalie tighter in his arms and whispered, "Go back to sleep."
Natalie's head bumped against his solid chest, feeling warmth from his embrace. When she thought about his gentle movements, she did not struggle. Soon, she fell back asleep, experiencing a night of pleasant dreams.
As Natalie's breathing became steady, Oliver’s gaze grew cold and fierce. He sent a message to Charles, mentioning a few names and issuing a second command.
…
When Natalie woke up again, it was already morning. The spot next to her was empty. She saw a note with Oliver’s powerful handwriting that reflected his domineering personality.
It read: Announce the marriage.
Natalie's heart trembled as she touched her wedding ring, feeling slightly hesitant.
She was now a semi-public figure. If she announced her marriage, she was worried it would affect Oliver.
After a moment, Natalie took a deep breath, making up her mind.
She took a close-up photo of her ring with her phone before she logged into her Instagram account. She had two accounts; one was about food, while the other was for her work as a model.
Unexpectedly, when she logged into Instagram, she found that there had been a crazy turn of events.
A well-known gossip account had posted a bank transfer receipt, showing Arwyn transferring money to the person who broke the news about Natalie previously. Not only that, but several popular influencers who had reposted false news about Natalie and publicly attacked her were also shown to have received a sum of money from unknown origins.
Photos of Arwyn behaving intimately with a middle-aged man were also exposed. In some photos, she could be seen kissing the middle-aged man’s neck passionately.
The middle-aged man was balding, dressed in an Armani suit, and drove a Cadillac. It was said that he was the CEO of a listed company. Most importantly, it was said that he was married.
Unsurprisingly, the Internet exploded with this revelation!
Just the day before, people were busy criticizing Natalie, but now, their attention had turned to Arwyn. After all, there was irrefutable evidence against Arwyn.
Considering the events before and after, it was easy for people to speculate about the cause and effect of the whole situation.
[Did Arwyn launch a smear campaign against Natalie? Honestly, I think Natalie behaved very gracefully throughout the entire ordeal, just like a true queen!]
[Are you a brainless fan of Natalie? Think about it. Natalie was attacked yesterday, but Arwyn was exposed today. Do you think Natalie, a penniless model, could retaliate against Arwyn without the support of someone wealthy?]
[The drama in the fashion industry is just as interesting as that of the entertainment industry!]
[Explain the necklace, the luxurious car, and the Versace dress then! If Arwyn has a sugar daddy, then Natalie must have one as well!]
Netizens expressed their opinions, hurling insults back and forth and taking sides.
After a moment, Natalie saw a comment from Jane.
[Jane: Look, with these now out of the way, the victory is now within Hailey’s reach. Have you heard about how when two parties fight, the third party will benefit?]
Jane's Instagram account had been verified and held significant influence and reach.
Many socialites in the circle, left comments mocking Jane.
[Those two have sugar daddies! You can’t change this fact even if you drag another person into this matter! Stop it. Do you think you’re still the young miss from the past, able to do whatever you want?]
Natalie was about to respond with a scathing comment when she realized that the comment had been deleted. She blinked in confusion, wondering if she had imagined everything.
…
Inside an apartment.
When Jane saw all those mocking comments had been deleted by the system, she did not look surprised. Instead, a mocking smile appeared on her charming face.
After taking a deep breath, she dialed a string of numbers on her phone.
"Do you find it amusing? Why bother playing these mind games? You just want to toy with me, don’t you?"
There was no sound on the other end.
Jane held her breath and looked at the corner of the coffee table, thinking, ‘Fine. If you don’t want to speak, then forget it. This is how it ends!’
Jane ended the call and added the other party to the blocklist, feeling a twinge of pain in her chest as she did so.
When she logged into Instagram again, she saw that Natalie had already posted something.
Natalie said, "I’m married."
Accompanying that was a photo of a beautiful and sparkling diamond ring hanging on a platinum chain.
