Chapter 413: In that moment, Rachel felt a quiet pang of envy. She looked at Natalia and sincerely remarked, "Your dad is really amazing." "Obviously! That's why I've always wanted to marry someone like him. And Brian is the perfect candidate. Speaking of which, I haven't seen him in days. Do you know where he is?" At the mention of Brian, Natalia perked up instantly.
"He's away on a business trip," Rachel answered.

Natalia, ever sharp, caught on immediately. "With Tracy Haynes, isn't it?" Rachel's silence said it all.
The second Tracy's nwas mentioned, Natalia's temper flared. "Her again? Why does she always get to be alone with Brian? That's it. I'm going too. Taketo him!" She spun around to face Rachel.
Rachel immediately shook her head. "That's not a good idea." "There's nothing wrong with going after what you want. Love takes courage. And there's no way I'm letting Tracy win." Without hesitation, Natalia grabbed her phone and ordered someone to pack her bags.
Rachel hesitated, but remembering everything Natalia had done for Jeffrey, she sighed and gave in. "Alright, I'll cwith you." "Yes! With you by my side, everything will go smoothly.

"Sure." "Hypothetically speaking... if you don't win Brian over, what's your plan?" Natalia tilted her head, actually taking a moment to think it over. After a brief silence, she frowned. "That thought has never even crossed my mind." After all, she had never once failed to get what she wanted.
An hour later, the helicopter touched down smoothly on the rooftop helipad of Brian's hotel. In no time, they were already stepping into the hotel lobby.
As fate would have it, the moment they entered, Brian and Tracy were at the front desk, checking in. Almost ΟΙ immediately, Natalia dashed over and swiped the room key straight from Tracy's hand. She glanced at Brian's room number, then at Tracy's, and with zero subtlety, announced, "Oh, perfect! Brian, I want the room next to yours." The moment Tracy saw Natalia, she instantly felt uneasy.
Biting her lip, she spoke with a touch of hesitation. "Miss Carpenter, the receptionists have already taken my details and handeda room card."
"I see," Natalia mused, tapping her chin as if lost in thought Aftena brief pause, a slow/smile spread across her face. "Alright then, sure." Tracy's face brightened instantly, and she wasted no texpressing her gratitude. "Miss Carpenter, thank you! I really appreciate it." Natalia's smile vanished as she gave Tracy a withering look. "Thank me? For what? Did I say I was giving it back to you?"
