Chapter 119 His Fame Was all Bought With Money
Natalie paused, her brows slightly moving as she casually lifted her eyelids, a faint smile curling her lips.
She asked, "Why does Mr. Kensington want to know this?"
Even if he knew the answer now, it wouldn't mean anything, would it?
"Answer me." His tone was deep, his gaze as profound as the ocean, unfathomable.
Natalie lowered her eyelids and gently smiled. "Because my family didn't approve of you, but I lost my mind and fell for you."
So, she gave up her identity and ran to Gabriel.
Unfortunately, he didn't catch her, and she was hurt so deeply that she wanted to die.
"Luckily, I've regained my senses now." She smiled lightly, her smile ice-cold. "Mr. Gabriel Kensington, are we done talking? Go back and discuss with Mr. Blair Kensington how to phrase your apology."
She took a sip of red wine, withdrew her gaze, and walked away in high heels without saying another word.
Victor was skillfully handling the guests nearby.
Ulysses smiled, suddenly remembering something, and walked up. "Where's Yves? How come he's not attending such an important event today?"
Yves, one of Natalie's rumored boyfriends, was also quite famous.
Victor coughed and then replied, "He said if he came, he'd steal everyone's thunder, so he stayed home to sleep."
Ulysses snorted, "His fame was all bought with money."
Natalie and Victor were dumbfounded and momentarily speechless.
At this moment, Yves, who was at home watching a movie he starred in, suddenly sneezed.
As the party was about to end, Kelly and Mia dragged Natalie away secretly.
Gabriel had gone to a bar.
"Gabriel, you called us out, but you're just now arriving. We've been waiting for you," Leo said.
As soon as Gabriel arrived, Leo eagerly approached him.
The Clark family spent a fortune to rent out the entire city's billboard space to announce Natalie's identity.The photos of the event were circulated online.
Now, everyone knew about the earth-shattering events at the party.
Natalie was the heiress of the Clark Group. Thinking about how they treated Natalie over the past three years, he suddenly felt a chilling run down his spine.
Gabriel picked up an untouched glass of whiskey from the table and drank it in one go.
Everyone fell silent at the sight.
They still found it unbelievable.
The difference in Natalie's identity was just too great; encountering such a reversal, no one could accept it!
Leo sighed, "Natalie hid it so well. She suddenly stands at the top of the food chain. Do you think she'll come after us?"
Gabriel, who had remained silent, let out a light scoff, his brows carrying a hint of indifferent arrogance. "No, she'll only come after me."
From the beginning to the end, the only one who treated her poorly was him.
Someone nearby questioned, "Is Natalie Ulysses's illegitimate daughter?"
Otherwise, why hadn't they heard of her existence in the Clark family before?
Gabriel clearly didn't believe it. If Natalie were an illegitimate daughter, would Ulysses dare to announce her identity so openly?
Obviously, the Clark family hid all her information to protect her.
Leo spoke up directly, "Haven't you guys been online? As soon as Natalie's identity was revealed, the Clark family announced her background. She was admitted to Crestwood University at thirteen, received a full scholarship to study abroad, and graduated with a PhD in just four years. Afterward, she interned at the top business company in Eldoria and had close ties with the Valoria's royal family. She was outstanding until she married Gabriel. No wonder even Victor was willing to transfer his shares so generously. With the Clark Group in her hands, it probably wouldn't be any worse than it is now."
Everyone fell silent after hearing this. How did they usually view Natalie?
They thought she schemed to marry Gabriel for money and status.
Yet, they had not anticipated that in comparison to Natalie, they were the ones who were aiming too high!
Seeing this, Leo stepped forward and patted Gabriel on the shoulder. "Gabriel, why did she marry you back then? She really fell for you, didn't she? Why?"
