Lights were flickering, a red carpet was spread across the entrance, allowing the busy people to attend, and the place was decorated beautifully. It was one of the Smith’s family properties: the Green Heart Building, a western-style hotel.
Karina arrived at the venue along with her female secretary. A curvy figure with a blue shimmering frock and a cu on her thigh and V-shoulders, she was looking breath-taking.
She paired the dress with a white-colored diamond necklace and matching earrings. Her eyes were tinted with blue and white eyeshades; Kajal, mascara, and a wing eye liner added a positive touch to her looks. Her lips were painted cherry red and they were looking so tempting. Everyone was stunned after looking at her beauty and murmured something among themselves. Her long, wavy black curs were left down freely.
Even Karina’s assistant was stunned by the look of the hotel and they both entered the venue. While they were both chatting about business and opportunities, Alex approached them. He was wearing a three-piece blue suit paired with a Rolex watch, branded goggles, and sharp black shoes. His hair was perfectly gelled and combed to the side.
“I would help your company get a partnership with the Smith family. Feel free to ask for my help; if you find it difficult, I will make it easy for you,” Alex boasted in front of Karina. However, she didn’t pay any attention or heed to his words but her secretary felt extremely thankful to Alex, who was ready to help them.
Meanwhile, while Karina was looking here and there, she found Nathan standing in one of the luxury cars. She stepped forward to apologize to him and explain why she behaved like that but she stopped herself after looking at Gwen coming out of the car. After noticing that Gwen was also equally beautiful as her, she stopped herself.
She glanced at Nathan, who was wearing a white 4-piece suit along with a touch of black color, branded goggles, a watch, and neatly combed air, which made him look handsome, and the cufflinks turned into a value-added service.
Gwen and Nathan walked inside and Karina, who wanted to apologize to Nathan, couldn’t do that because of the presence of Gwen. So she greeted him normally. Karina was extremely dissatisfied that Nathan found a female companion so quickly, and her face was filled with disdain.
“Nathan, who was she?” Gwen asked him directly. Without beating around the bush, he directly answered,
“Meet Karina Blackwood. She is my ex-wife,” Nathann introduced her to Gwen.
After hearing that she is the ex-wife of Nathan, Gwen developed comparisons and hostility towards Karina. Her behavior and thoughts about her changed dramatically.
"Why have I never seen or heard about this woman earlier?” Karina inquired, to which he replied,
“You are always a busy woman working as the CEO of Blackwood Company. When do you have time for me? So, it seems that you never heard about it from me. "Nathan questioned her calmly but there was a mockery in his voice. After listening to it, Karina stayed silent for a while.
“Nathan, can you please come aside? There is something I need to talk about with you,” Karina said, breaking the awkward silence between them.
“For what? Whatever you wanted to say, say it here only,” Nathan rejected, as he didn’t want anyone to think that they both still had some relationship after the divorce. Karina originally wanted to apologize to him for her distrust and explain to him but when he asked her to talk in front of everyone, she didn’t want to do that.
Karina felt the indifference of Nathan towards her and wondered how he could change himself and his attitude within a few minutes.
“What’s the problem with you? Why do you ignore me to such a great extent? Karina questioned Nathan.
“You know the answer by yourself. Nathan responded in a chilly manner, "You asked for this, and a useless person like me will never be able to compete with a person like Karina, the CEO of Blackwood."
Karina felt angry after looking at Nathan with another woman, so she simply covered her mistakes.
“It wasn’t my mistake. A person like you who never knows how to earn a penny really doesn’t deserve a girl like me. So stop blaming me and if you really trust yourself, prove it to me." Karina felt insulted by looking at Nathan talking with her in a rude manner in front of some other girl.
“What was the relationship between you, Alex?” Nathan questioned Karina straight-forwardly. They two also attended a business party together and Karina had a clear conscience and knew what she was doing. But at the same time, Alex reached there.
When Nathan spotted Alex, he misunderstood that they were both really close.
Alex's eyes landed on Gwen, who was looking splendid and wanted to know more about her but looking at Nathan accompanying her he felt jealous. In a pit of rage, Alex said,
“Mr. Nathan, you used to work as a cleaner for Blackwood’s company. And a person like you won’t ever be able to enter Smith's family business.”
“Oh, you care about me so much, isn’t it, Mr. Alex?"Don’t worry about entering the company or not but protect yourself from throwing out,” Nathan said in his cold voice. However, after hearing his warning, Alex felt he was cheating on Gwen to enter the Smith’s family business party.
“So you are here cheating with Miss. Gwen to enter the high-class party?” Alex looked down at Nathan. Even before Nathan opened his mouth and answered, Gwen decided to play along.
“Oh, who needs money every time? See how handsome he looks and I am already flattening his muscular body. I just want to accompany him along with me. I don’t care even if he is cheating with me to enter the company event and I would gladly allow him to do so,” Gwen replied, hiding her original identity as the heir of the Smith family and playing along with Alex.
Hearing Gwen’s words, Alex felt Gwen was a fool to say that she doesn’t care about money but rather her looks. According to Alex, looks can fade away but not money. His face turned red with anger. Gwen noticed it, but she pretends that she didn’t notice it.“Young master, don’t give much attention to her words. She is just stupid to not notice you,” the female secretary of Alex tried to persuade him.Karina's thoughts, on the other hand, were going in a different direction. Hearing Gwen’s words, Karina was in a moment of shock.“Did she insult me directly or indirectly or is she saying that I only cared about money rather than caring about his extraordinary looks?” Karina thought to herself. Jer is stopped by Nathan. He is wearing a four-piece suit. with a white turtleneck shirt, a black waisit coat and a suit. His hair is gelled up and combed nicely. His sharp nose and dipped lips, along with his perfectly toned body, make him look extra handsome.Karina’s heart flustered for a secon
Nathan brought to Gwen's attention the fact that she had mentioned something about Alex. It was then that she said, "Oh, yeah, come with me," and she led the way while Nathan followed behind her. She led him to the entrance and pointed in the direction of the entrance during her presentation. Despite the fact that Nathan is preoccupied with comprehending her, she turned her head in that direction. The guard allowed Karina to enter after she presented her identification card to him; however, Alex was prevented from entering the building by the guard just as he was about to enter. What was the reason you stopped me? Alex barked. With a stern expression on his face, the security guard responded, "I am extremely sorry to say that you are not permitted to enter here." I do not understand what you mean by that. Would you be able to identify me? Attempting to keep his temper under control, Alex yelled at the security guard. The guard responded with a nonchalant expression on his face w
“Don’t you really know anything about the mess that Alex Atwood created out there?” Her sister is a questioend, Gwen.“How wouldn't I know when I was the one who ignited the fire out there?” Gwen said and gave a side smile.“What? Why did you do that?” Her sister questions why her eyebrows rise.“I have my plans. Anyway, there are some changes in the environment today,” Gwen said something to her sister and after hearing Gwen’s plan, her sister opened her eyes wide in shock.“But, why?” “I already gave you my answer,” Gwen replied with an attitude and went in to get ready.*******Never in his life did Nathan want to be the center of attention or the center of any kind of spotlight. So he opted for a corner and stood there silently. His eyes began searching for only one person, and that person was his ex-wife, despite the fact that he no longer desired to be the central point of attention.Nathan is very knowledgeable about this business circle and is aware of the fact that they are
“We agree to it,” the ladies were excited."But we don’t,” men screamed.Hearing it, all the women glared at their partner and Nathan felt that if the looks of wives could kill them, then all the men would have turned into ashes right now. A small smile plastered on his lips but it went even before someone noticed it.Karina’s eyes started searching for Nathan. She felt upset and angry too. Only she knows why she proposed a divorce but what she never expected was that the scenario she guessed was going completely in the opposite direction. She knows Nathan would be upset and mad too but she never expected that she would meet Nathan hooked up with another girl within just 24 hours of their divorce.Even though she feels that she doesn’t need to carry any guilt with him, somehow seeing all the ladies with their partners, her heart started screaming with the pain, even though Alex accompanied her without her knowledge; she never considered him nor she didn’t look for him. In fact, she di
Karina’s eyes lit up when she looked at the necklace. The red-jade earrings made her think about the tinder Nathna gave her. When they were together, she never kept it aside, not even for a day. If she is at work, she would keep it locked with her chain as a pendant or lock it with her in her bag, and when she is at home, her finger used to carry it.She treasured the tinder like it was a treasure she couldn’t ever lose. Even Nathan was amazed and satisfied with her act because it always showed him that he was the most important person in her life. Nathan never expected that there would be one day when they would both be patriots, and she would choose her company, money, name, and fame as her priorities compared to him. However, if life never gives you surprises, it won't be at peace and it will show its true side to them in the form of divorce.Even though Karina knows why she did that, she never expected to be separated from Nathan forever. However, whatever happens, only time and t
The hall was filled with gasps and murmurs from the people. Just then, Nathan’s mobile rang with a message. During the event, he sent a text message to his man instructing him to depart from that location. Following that, he responded to the message he had received.“Mr. Nathan, please meet me at the backstage. I have something to discuss with you,” Gwen texted him.In response to the message, he pressed his lips together to form a thin shape. "What is it that she wants me to do at this point?" His thoughts ran through his head, but he responded, "Okay," and then he went to the back of the stage.Gwen, who was examining the event while sitting with her family, turned to her sister and said, "I would like to offer my congratulations."“Make sure everything goes well. I have something important to handle. I will be back in a jiff.”“Where are you going?” Her sister questioned Gwen.“Don’t probe! Just do as I said,” Gwen answered her sister. Despite having moved on, she is still upset wi
Gwen waited until Nathan left completely, sitting there for an additional 10 minutes analyzing everything, ensuring she had done everything correctly. Afterward, she came out and sat beside her sister. The event was in full swing, and everyone was bidding with high spirits."How is it going?" Gwen questioned her sister, looking at the Ruby pendant along with a thin chain being auctioned."It was great," her sister answered.Within a couple of minutes, the pendant was gone, and the next product captured Gwen’s attention. They were cufflinks for men, specially designed by the top designer in the world. Gwen wanted to bid for them and get them for herself."These cufflinks would look great on Nathan. I would gift them when the perfect time comes," Gwen thought to herself."These are special cufflinks that can change their color according to your heartbeat and body temperature. They are the only pieces available on this earth, and wherever you search, you won’t find another piece," the ho
“I already told you my answer. Don’t let your little brain think too much,” Gwen poked at her sister’s brain. “Hehe, I know, but my heart was unable to accept it,” her sister gave her a cheeky smile. "Because, just like you, your brain is also a fool,” Gwen sneered. “Aw, you are not ready to accept the truth. It’s okay, someday I will get you,” her sister said, sitting back. Gwen smiled at herself after looking at her sister's childishness. “Are others ready to bid for these cufflinks?” The host looked all around. But she didn’t get any response so the host started the countdown, and at last, Gwen got those cufflinks. She immediately wrote down the check and handed it to the host. The host displayed the check to everyone and handed the cufflinks to Gwen. She took the box in her hand and held it tightly. “Nathan, these are for you. When the time comes, I will hand them over to you,” Gwen thought to herself. After that, the event went on for one more hour, and at the end, the even
After that, Nathn disconnected the call, and in his mind, he was contemplating a solution that would keep Karina safe and out of this mess. After some contemplation, Nathn made a decision and approached Karina. Karina was still sitting in the same position, thinking about something seriously. He sighed and stood near her.“Karina,” he called her softly, keeping his hand on her shoulder. Shye came out of her thoughts and looked at him. "Come, let’s go. We will talk about everything later,” he said, and gave his hand to her as support. Karina kept her hand in his and stood up from her place without asking anything of him. She realizes her mistake and doesn’t want to add any more tension to his life. He took her and was about to walk out of her mansion but the second he opened the door, he was stunned by the person standing in front of him. The person looked at Kaeina and Nathan and then at their intertwined hands. Kairn felt weird vibes when looking at the person standing in front of h
Nathan remained silent as he absorbed all the news from his people, an evil smirk adorning his face. “Wait and watch; I won’t leave anyone.”After picturing himself as dead and making his stepmother the acting CEO, he drew on a series of numbers. "Ensure her proper feeding and ensure her safety in your care." Until now, I have ordered her to come out and, yes, whenever needed, send her pictures to me. Don't let her slip; don't let anyone know her whereabouts.After that, he went to meet the sage, and after seeing his talent and hands in the miracle, the head sage decided to teach him many things. In this process, only a select few sages possess the ability to control the lives of others.Nathan was chosen to learn the tricks of the trade. The main sage taught Nathan how to save lives in need and how to quickly uncover lies.

The 3-hole area was filled with smoke, and the news of Amber's private jet collapse quickly spread throughout the entire city. The news began to spread through the media and newspapers.“What has happened to the Amber family? Why did Nathan's entire Amber family descend into the depths of death? This question became the hottest topic in the media. While speculation swirled over a variety of topics, a few have declared that it was the work of other competitors in Amber's family, and their PR department has released an official letter.“We are offering our deep condolences to the departed souls. In response to recent rumors suggesting our deliberate actions or invol

Under Natahn's resurgence, the company has thrived greatly, proving itself to its shareholders and business partners. Even the potent eight heirs were eager to see how the company has thrived for the better and how it has achieved success. When they heard Nathan's name ring everywhere, they got jealous.The business realm was filled with only one name. Everyone is only talking about one person. It’s NAtah. Despite his determination to conceal his identity, he is widely known as Mr. N. The name and fame he is gaining in the business world make others jealous. However, along with his success, he has also attracted a number of enemies, putting his life in constant danger.He silently made the decision to carry out his father's suggestion. However, he is always surrounded by guards.As Nathan's resurgence continued, so did the envy and admiration surrounding his name in the business world.

With a steely glint in his eye, Nathan vowed to protect his family's honor and uphold the values that his parents had instilled in him. And as he watched the heirs disappear into the distance, he knew that the battle for control of the Amber family was far from over—but he was ready to fight for what was rightfully his.As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a golden glow over the horizon, Nathan stood before his parents' caskets, the weight of his promise heavy on his shoulders. With solemn reverence, he performed the final rites, bidding a heartfelt farewell to the two people who had shaped him into the man he had become."Mom, Dad," Nathan whispered, his voice barely audible amidst the quiet of the evening. "I promise to honor your memory and carry on your legacy. I will protect our family's honor and uphold the values you taught me. Rest in peace."With tears streaming down his cheeks, Nathan placed a bouquet of flowers atop each casket, a final tribute to his beloved parent
As Nathan turned to look at his mother, he saw the tears glistening in her eyes, her gaze fixed on her husband with a mixture of love and sorrow. Despite the pain etched on her face, Nathan could see a strength within her—a resilience born from a lifetime of shared experiences and unwavering devotion..Nathan reached out to his mother, his hand trembling slightly as he gently touched her shoulder. She turned to him, her eyes searching his face for solace, and Nathan knew that they were in this together."Mom," Nathan said softly, his voice breaking with emotion. "I'm here for you."His mother nodded in silent acknowledgment of their shared grief. She reached out, her hand finding his, and together they sat by his father's bedside, their presence a silent comfort in the face of an impending loss.As the minutes stretched into eternity, Nathan watched as his father's breaths grew shallower, his heartbeat slowing to a gentle rhythm. With each passing moment, Nathan felt the weight of th
As Nathan looked at his father, he knew that no matter what the future held, they would emerge stronger than ever before. And as they navigated the uncertain road ahead, Nathan held onto the hope that their love would see them through, guiding them towards a brighter tomorrow.The doctor came and checked on him but he understood something so he silently helped him remove the mask as she wanted to talk with his son. “Nathan,” his father’s voice echoed so weakly but he instantly approached him. My heart is sending too many bad vibes. With slow and steady steps, he approaches his father, keeping all his negative thoughts at bay.“Dad,” he called him softly, holidinng his ahndn in his. “How are you?” He asked him, to which he smiled weakly and asked him to sit.As Nathan approached his father's bedside, he couldn't shake the heavy feeling that settled in his chest.

In that moment, Nathan felt a profound sense of gratitude, not only for the doctors and nurses who had worked tirelessly to save his parents but also for the outpouring of support from the community. And as he stood there, surrounded by the hustle and bustle of the hospital, Nathan vowed to never take his loved ones for granted again, cherishing each moment with them as the precious gift it truly was.“But Mr. Amber, I am still sorry to say that even though the operation was successful, we can't guarantee anything about them. They need to be under observation for the next 72 hours. And if they don’t get back into their senses in the next 72 hours, there are chances that they might shift into a coma," the doctor said.As the doctor's words settled over Nathan, a wave of conflicting emotions washed over him. Gratitude for the successful surgery warred with the fear of uncertainty about his parents' future. He nodded solemnly, absorbing the gravity of the situation while clinging to the
