Chapter 229 Gabriel's Gift (Part 1)

The bash was at the Golden Crown Hotel.

Natalie's birthday party was packed with celebs and big shots.

Like Victor said, it was a prime time to make connections.

Ulysses went all out for Natalie. He booked the whole hotel, and a whole street of bodyguards kept the guests safe.

The lights were blinding, luxurious, and classy.

Outside, a giant screen showed a stunning photo of Natalie.

"Happy Birthday, Natalie!" was trending everywhere and took up pricey ad spots.

This event was even more extravagant than the company's annual party.

The Clark family made sure Natalie was the star of the show.

In the hotel lounge, Natalie, Kelly, and Mia were touching up their makeup.

With no outsiders around, they were more at ease.

The table was covered in jewelry and diamonds.

The sparkle under the lights screamed money.

Natalie wore a simple but super elegant black gown that showed off her graceful figure, making her look stunning.

She had this untouchable elegance. Even with minimal accessories, she looked like royalty.

Kelly and Mia were in awe of the diamonds and jewelry Ulysses had sent over.

It was like he wanted to give her all the bling he had.

They'd never seen such luxury!

Natalie was trying on rings one by one.

The white diamonds were crystal clear, the pink ones were cute and charming, and the black ones were rare and precious.

She had diamond rings on all ten fingers.

She sighed, a bit bummed.

Looking at the other two, she wiggled her bejeweled fingers. "Too bad I can't wear them all out. I love each one."

Natalie checked herself out in the mirror.

Finally, she casually picked three rings for her slender fingers.

Being frugal wasn't her thing!

The rings she chose were rich in design, noble, and generous.

Kelly and Mia gave her a thumbs-up. "Let's go."

Seeing it was almost time, Natalie followed them out.

Outside, bodyguards surrounded the room tightly. No one could get in.

The bodyguards flanked Natalie, protecting her with a strong presence.

Their footsteps were heavy and in sync, clearly well-trained.

The stairs connected both ends.

The banquet hall was brightly lit, and Natalie's entrance grabbed everyone's attention.

Her stunning beauty and cool demeanor were mesmerizing.

She smiled faintly. The calm nobility in her eyes seemed natural.

Ulysses, looking proud, stepped forward to lead her down the stairs.

Kyle didn't show, but Natalie got his bank card.

Victor and Yves stood on either side, their handsome and tall figures drawing lots of eyes.

Why was this family's genetics so amazing?

It was truly enviable.

Ulysses smiled, grabbed a drink from a nearby waiter, and said, "Welcome everyone to my daughter Natalie's birthday party. The thing I'm most proud of in my life isn't founding the Clark Group, but having a precious daughter."

He poured all his love into Natalie.

During the three years Natalie was away, he never slept well.

He worried she might either not be doing well or be bullied, or that she was doing too well and wouldn't want to come home.

His voice paused, and Natalie knew what Ulysses was thinking.Her eyes got a bit teary.

With a glance, she saw Gabriel standing in the crowd.
