Chapter 54
They arrived at Flabellum Bay very soon.
When Natalie had only heard about it before, she felt that the place surely must be luxurious beyond anyoneâs imagination. Now that she could see it with her own eyes, she couldnât deny how magnificent it looked.
She could understand now why that place was such a hot potato among the upper circle society.
Everyone said it was a villa, but in Natalieâs eyes, just stariding in front of the gate made her feel that the place looked more like an exquisite castle.
âThis must be what being a queen is like!â Natalie thought.
âWhen did Uncle Xavier buy this place?â Natalie asked Queenie.
At that time, she thought only people from Quadfield had managed to buy the mansion. Unexpectedly, Xavier, who had been abroad then, had managed to buy one of them.
Queenie replied, âMr. Jensen has countless properties around the world. He doesnât remember it himself. The butler was the one who reminded Mr. Jensen of this place when he mentioned to the butler he wanted to gift you a place to stay.â
Silence ensued after Queenie said that.
âAll the staff here were only brought in yesterday, and they were rushed to ready it for you. I hope you can bear with the minor inconvenience this might causelâ Queenie said.
Natalie thought, âWhat audacious words!
How can Xavier not remember such an amazing place?
Iâm at a loss for words!
Before coming here, I wondered whether it was a good idea for Xavier to give me such a luxurious place.
Now, Iâm not worried at all. A place that he couldnât even remember himself probably doesnât meant that much to him.
âOf course, itâs not a bother for me. Iâm just grateful I have a roof over my head now,â Natalie then. said.
For Natalie, as long as she didnât have to return to Autumnhall Residence, any place was fine!
After lunch, Natalie went to change her clothes.
When she stood in front of the wardrobe, Natalieâs concept of luxury was renewed again. Calvin

used to love giving her everything.
But nowâ¦
Those famous brands from all over the world were all customâmade by hand. All those were getting to Natalieâs head.
âMr. Jensen wasnât sure about your preferences, so he asked someone to send every seasonâs clothing line here. In the future, you only need to choose and wear the ones you like.â
âI like them all!â Natalie said in a complicated tone.
She thought, âHow can I not love it?
I will have to face karma if I dare to say that I donât like it!
âDoesnât Uncle Xavier, Aunt Samantha, and Wrenna prefer staying lowâkey? Why is Uncle Xavier suddenlyâ¦â Natalie trailed off, not finishing her question.
Queenie understood what Natalie meant.
Queenie said, âIn fact, Mr. Jensen had always wanted to shower Ms. Jensen with a lot of good things. He wanted to give her the best things in the world, but Ms. Jensen had never liked this sort of girly
stuff.
âOkay!
I did hear something of that sort. Natalie nodded in her heart.
Wrenna was clearly a girl, but she had always liked boyish kinds of stuff like playing basketball and table tennis.
Even the profession she chose was that of the medical field, where she would be doing several operations a day and getting bloody.
Even her hairstyle was short.
âSo, now he wants to realize the dreams of raising a princess through you,â Queenie explained.
Natalie didnât know what to say.
She was speechless.
âWell, thatâs Xavier for you. I guess he is doing all this for me because he has hit a wall with Wrenna, Natalie thought.
After getting dressed, Natalie went out with Queenie. Once again, she had to reevaluate the level of affection Xavier had for her when she saw the silver Bugatti stopped at the gate.
Natalie looked at Queenie and then at the car.

âGet in the car,â said Queenie.
Natalie asked, âAre we
going by this car?â
âThatâs right,â said Queenie.
âNo. I donât think thatâs such a good idea. Why donât we take the same car we drove here?â Natalie pleaded as she thought, Things were definitely getting too over my head now.
I have seen Xavierâs ability to shower affection in the few months I have been abroad with him.
Then, Wrenna ran off to the desert.
And when that happened, Xavier turned his attention to me. He either took me to attend various occasions, or he would ask someone to send me pieces of jewelry regularly. Samantha was already covered from head to toe in jewelry that he had bought for her.
Natalie didnât want the Jeffords family to know her relationship with Xavier at all.
If Calvin saw her driving that car, he would definitely investigate!
However, what Natalie didnât know was that Calvin had already asked lan to investigate the relationship between her and Xavier.
Calvin wasnât the type of man to bring down judgment on someone because of a
misunderstanding. Natalie had been with him for ten years. He would not rest until he found out why she had become close to another man.
In the end, Queenie didnât give in to Natalieâs wishes, saying that it was Xavierâs order! Natalie only realized it now that Queenie regarded Xavierâs words as gospel.
The tender meeting was held in the afternoon.
Natalie and Yohannes sat together. She was sitting on the right side of Yohannes, while Calvin and Ian were sitting on his left side.
The atmosphere was a little oppressive.
Calvin glanced at lan, but lan turned his head to one side and didnât dare to look at Calvin at all. He didnât expect that Natalie would show up there with Yohannes. It was obvious that her design draft had been approved by Yohannes.
At that moment, Calvin was infuriated, while Natalie looked unbothered by anything.
She was dressed in a beigeâcolored handmade business suit, which made her look more elegant and capable. Although her stature was slightly small, her temperament was undoubtedly superior.
The first few companies had already submitted their drafts, but no one had made it through the final review.

At that time, it could be seen how strict the review of the plan for the land in the eastern suburb was. They were making their assessments and reviews based on the integration of the surrounding facilities in the planning.
Soon, it was time to compare Yohannes and Calvinâs designs. Natalicâs heart raced as she glanced at Yohannes.
However, Yohannes looked unperturbed by anything.
Ding! Ding! A message notification came from the phone.
It managed to distract Natalieâs attention!
She lowered her head and turned on her phone. She saw it was a domineering message from Calvin. He wrote: [I will teach you a lesson after Iâm done here.]
Natalie glared at Calvin over Yohannes!
Calvin looked as steady as a rock. However, the aura he exuded made his emotions obvious. He was angry and was clearly at the end of his ropes.
Over on the other side, at the hospital, Cecilia burst into a peal of uproarious laughter when she heard what happened in the ward the previous night. The content made her extremely relieved. She could almost imagine what Natalie was thinking at that time.
âGood job. Iâll give you extra incentives for this!â Cecilia said generously.
The agreement between her and Yvette was fixed.
But Cecilia was willing to pay extra money if she could let Natalie suffer such a huge loss. However, Cecilia didnât expect that when she mentioned money, Yvette would look at her with a slight disdain in her eyes.
It was obvious that Yvette didnât care about, the extra money at all. Cecilia didnât care that Yvette was being disrespectful toward her.
âAlthough you did a good job, we must move fast!â Cecilia said. She couldnât wait any longer.
Originally, she thought she could end the relationship between Natalie and Calvin before Josephineâs birthday, but it didnât seem like it was possible.
A sharp look flashed through Ceciliaâs eyes!
When Cecilia noticed that Yvette was silent, another sharp look flashed through Ceciliaâs eyes. âDonât think about things that are not within your reach!â Cecilia warned her.
Cecilia understood clearly how Yvette felt about Calvin.
âI donât need another woman who has a death wish like Natalie popping up at this time!â Cecilia thought.
