Chapter 663: Chapter 666

Chapter 666 A Mother Of Four “And what did she say to that, Lady Diane?” Natalie prompted.

“She said that her heart belongs to another.” Diane cleared her throat and admitted, “I even begged her to give Yohan a fair chance! I can’t believe I had the wrong person. This is so embarrassing!”

Natalie mulled over Diane’s words, deep in thought.

If Yara said that her heart belongs to another, she must mean Samuel. Yara has never rejected any advances from other men, but she has also never wavered when it comes to her feelings for Samuel.

“Natalie...”

“Yes?”

“What about you? Surely, you’re not in a relationship too, are you? Can you give Yohan a chance?” Diane implored. “I’m not saying this just because he’s my son, but I’m sure you can feel the sincerity of Yohan’s feelings for you.”

Natalie shook her head gently.

“I’m afraid I can’t.”

“Why not?” Diane was crestfallen.

“I’m with someone else, and he’s the love of my life.” Natalie took a dainty sip of her champagne. “Moreover, perhaps you and Sir Nikolai do not know this, but I have already given birth when I was only nineteen. I’m now a mother of four,” Natalie revealed, her eyes twinkling with unconcealed love for her family.

She paused intentionally to emphasize the weight of her statement. Her eyes bore into Diane’s as she continued, “I assume that even if Yohan insists on pursuing me, you and Sir Nikolai will not approve of this marriage. Am I right?”

Natalie spoke with tenderness, but each word she uttered was a blow to Diane.

“Y-You’re a mother of four?”

“Yes!” Natalie’s lips curved upward at the thought of her children. “They are fraternal quadruplets! They’re intelligent for their age and absolutely adorable. I’ll bring them over to meet you and Sir Nikolai when we get the chance!” she boasted like the proud mother she was.

“Fraternal quadruplets!” Diane exclaimed.

That’s such a blessing! Too bad that Natalie’s children aren’t Yohan’s. If they were, Nikolai and I would have four lovely grandchildren.

The thought of it alone made Diane green with envy.

Shaking her head, Diane marveled, “Indeed, the best women get snatched up quickly! It’s a shame that Yohan wasn’t fortunate enough to meet you earlier. If not, he would definitely make you his wife!”

“Lady Diane, our fates are in the hands of the universe. Yohan had to miss me to meet his soulmate in the future,” Natalie pointed out sagely.

“Oh, you. Not only are you skilled in medicine, but your emotional intelligence is remarkable as well, I see.”

Diane lamented that Natalie was just a passerby in Yohan’s life. A wonderful woman like her by Yohan’s side would put a mother’s heart at ease.

The two women continued their merry conversation in the lounge.

Meanwhile, the Shine Charity Gala event hall was a cacophony of discussions.

“Ms. Yara, what did Lady Diane say to you? Both of you seemed to be enjoying the conversation just moments ago. What happened? Why is she talking to Natalie of Dream Corporation now?”

“Who exactly is Natalie Nichols? Why would royalty like Lady Diane invite her to the private lounge?”

“How long have they been in there?”

“More than twenty minutes!”

“And they still haven’t left? They must be having a great chat. Either they clicked instantly, or they already knew each other from before. Who would have known that Natalie had such great connections?”

Yara’s moment in the spotlight barely lasted mere minutes before she faded into the background once again, forever living in Natalie’s shadow.

Frustrated, Yara tuned out the animated chatter around her and downed drink after drink.

I don’t understand! Natalie and I are identical twins! Furthermore, Natalie’s face was marred from the fire five years ago, and her cosmetic surgery was an absolute disaster. How am I not better than her?
