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
Everyone turned to the source of the voice, only to be shocked."Grandpa!" Gwen and her sister screamed in excitement and went running towards him. He smiled seeing his sweet granddaughters, who would kill the person in time, and at the same time, they could be super sweet with the trusted ones too.“How are you feeling, grandpa?” Gwen and her sister questioned each other in unison.“After looking at me, you still want to ask this?” Old Smith scrunched his eyebrows. They both broke the hug and went a bit far from him. Even though he is still in a wheelchair, he radiates a powerful aura, which makes everyone bow to him. However, Nathan didn’t bow in front of him or show any interest. He landed his eyes on him for a second and then averted his gaze before someone noticed it.“You still need to recover; why are you here?” Gwen questions him.“Umm, to be honest, I would like to say hello to everyone once. I will go back just in a few minutes,” Old Smith reassured them.“Are you sure? Shal
Gwen and her sister were left with Old Smith after everyone else had gone to their dinners."Grandpa, it is time for you to return home and rest," Gwen said."I heard that someone had rescued me. I want to meet him,” Old Smith said and Gwen nodded her head."Grandpa, I assure you that I will bring him along with me to the hospital because I want to meet you there. Due to some reasons, it’s not safe for him to meet you now,” Gwen requested.The words that Old Smith uttered were completely silent. Old Smith wondered how he had been saved, fully aware that survival this time was unlikely, his curiosity peaking. Upon successfully returning to normal, Old Smith was taken aback as he learned about Nathan, the one who had saved him. Even though he met Nathan during treatment, he was not in his right mind. Once he had finished his contemplation, he gave a slight nod of his head.“Who is there?” Gwen snapped her fingers. The Smith family's guards immediately charged towards them.“Bring Grandp
“It was normal for successful business empires. This affects not only you or anyone else, but also celebrities. If you go and ask them, they would say the same thing: they are unable to live a normal life, and because of this paparazzi, they have to kill their wishes and desires,” Nathan answered."Yes, I know, but for once, I want to do what I wish for. I was tired of loving the way they want me to,” Gwen declared and she went from there even before Nathan could process what she meant by that.Nathan sighed and his eyes wandered in search of Gwen but he couldn’t find Herv anywhere near.Gwen, who went from there, was determined to get him some food by herself; however, Karina’s eyes also landed on Nathan, who was skitting not so far from everyone.“Why did he come here? What was the relationship between that girl and him? Was he really in love with her before we signed the divorce agreement? If yes, he wouldn’t wish to stay with me. But I could feel his pain when I asked him to sign
"You." Even before Karina could respond, she heard a voice from behind her. This caused her to stop her argument with Nathan and turn her head back, only to become enraged with rage.“What are you doing here?” Karina asked with fuming rage.“I think I should ask you that question. What are you doing here?” Gwen questioned her.“He is my husband and I don’t think there is a need to answer you,” Karina replied. While saying those words, Karina unknowingly went and stood beside Nathan. In a way that she would sit on his lap.“Oh, mind your words. He isn’t your husband anymore. He is your ex-husband,” Gwen mocked her.“I don’t know what’s your problem. We are husband and wife and I think you forgot that until the court ceases to place a stamp on us, we will remain husband and wife. So, it would be better if you stay away from him or else I don’t mind taking any harsh steps,” Karina warned.“You don’t dare. I don’t know why you left him in the first place and are now claiming him to be you
Nathan stood there, hearing everything and feeling helpless after looking at her tears."Karina." His voice came out like a wave of pain. At that moment, he wants to do only one thing: hug her and soothe her and he wants to say everything he is hiding from her. He can’t see her broken like this.“Ah, stop. Just stop, Nathan. You have proved that I am nothing to you but I am the biggest fool here. All these days, I believed that you loved me and only me. But no, I am wrong—totally wrong,” Karina said.“Listen to me; it’s-” Even before Nathan could complete his sentence, Karina showed her right hand to him, indicating that he stop.“No more, Nathan. I am not ready to fall into your sweet trap again,” she said, looking at Nathan. Even though her face is looking cold and her eyes are red in color, only Nathan is able to see the pain in her heart. His soul could connect with hers and he could hear the painful screams of Karina."Goodbye, Mr. Nathan, I wish we wouldn’t ever meet again and y
