Charis couldn’t let that happen. She had to take the risk. Otherwise, she would never have the chance to be with Brandon. Natalie was tired of the people trying to flatter her the entire day. Therefore, she decided to take the stairs that day when she got off work to avoid her colleagues
“Have they upgraded the surveillance system on the staircase?” Charis asked her assistant, “All the CCTV cameras in the staircase will be shut down when we get off work later. The technical department will stay and upgrade them in the evening.”
The assistant balanced the documents in her arms and added, “If there’s nothing else, can I leave for the day?”
“Okay. Ask the technical department to finish upgrading as soon as possible. After all, it’s a matter of safety. Without the working cameras, we won’t be able to investigate what’s going on if anything does happen.” Charis waved her hand
Coincidently, the company was working on upgrading the security system. Charis could wait for Natalie in the staircase after work when the cameras were shut down. That way, there wouldn’t be any traces left behind.
Things seemed to progress better than she had expected. Judging from Natalie’s reaction, Charis realized she must
Charis haughtily walked back to her office, a smug smile plastered on her face. Seeing Natalie running away with a pale face, she instantly knew her plan had worked. She closed her eyes and breathed a sigh of relief.
A senior leader had informed Charis the episode between Brandon Natalie outside the club the other day She was startled to know that Brandon’s real identity was exposed too soon.
Charis was annoyed that Natalie could enjoy the glory and pride of being the wife of the CEO of the Larson Group The gold digger would definitely cling to him more after knowing that Sebastian was Brandon
Charis didn’t make her move right away
She wanted to observe what was happening, fully analyze the situation, and then find the perfect opportunity to attack Natalie.
Therefore, Charis secretly watched Natalie’s every move. Several department managers and senior executives tried flattering
Natalie with gifts and eateries.
Although Natalie had a pleasant countenance, Charis could tell at a glance that, deep down, she was unhappy. Natalie was pissed off but was pretending to remain calm. A smile emerged on Charis’s face. She guessed Natalie was pissed off because Brandon had lied to her Charis’s opinion of Natalie changed in an instant. She was surprised to know that Natalie didn’t care about Brandon’s real identity as she believed. If Natalie wasn’t her rival in love, Charis would have admired her wholeheartedly. Charis was born with a silver spoon, and the impoverished girls she had seen in her life were all greedy about money.
Even though they all pretended like they didn’t care about money, almost everyone of them revealed their true colors as time went by. Natalie’s behavior surprised her. The woman was strangely unaffected by wealth and power. However, it was also an opportunity to make her plans work.
Brandon and Natalie had quarreled. Charis could use this chance to amplify the gap between the two and drag them apart forever
After all, it wasn’t her fault. She was merely seizing the opportunity God had given to her. Brandon had warned her earlier. But
Charis couldn’t miss this marvelous chance.
If she didn’t make a move now, it would be impossible to separate Natalie and Brandon once they reconciled.
Charis couldn’t let that happen.
She had to take the risk. Otherwise, she would never have the chance to be with Brandon.
Natalie was tired of the people trying to flatter her the entire day. Therefore, she decided to take the stairs that day when she got off work to avoid her colteagues.

Judging from Natalie’s reaction, Charis realized she must have suffered a heavy blow. She stood in front of the window, with her arms over her chest, and stared at the business hub of Seacisco before her. She pursed her lips and thought about the prospect of her next move. It was pretty easy. Charis only had to make

Brandon kick Natalie out of his life. That way, he would be hers forever.
After getting off work, Sebastian sal inside his cai, staring at everyone leaving the Larson Group’s building
He didn’t start driving until he saw Natalie walking out. He then followed her closely, making sure to tail her at a moderate speed
When he noticed that she wasn’t on her way home, he sped up and pulled over beside her
Natalie looked inside the car and saw Sebastian.
He was truly dashing in his suit. And the smile on his face made him look all the more charming. Sebastian rested his hands on the steering wheel, visibly hesitant before asking, “Wanna go home together?”
Natalie ignored him and continued walking along the road.
Sebastian followed her for a few minutes before she finally stopped in her tracks, frustrated and livid
Why am I angry with Sebastian? Charis is the one who provoked me! This is all because of my pathetic self-esteem and insecurities.
Natalie thought in distress
The mere thought of that made Natalie feel even sadder.
She and Sebastian were like two parallel lines that would never meet in between. If it weren’t for his mother’s last wish, they never would’ve gotten together.
Because Natalie stopped walking, Sebastian stepped on the brake and pulled over behind her. It took a few moments before Natalie decided to step into the car in silence.
Sebastian frowned
Instead of feeling happy, he sensed that something was amiss. The reason why Natalie wasn’t talking to him before was because she was angry with him. But now, he could tell that something else was wrong.
The light in his eyes dimmed, and his heart sank. He quietly turned the steering wheel and drove back to the villa.
