Feel the Way You Feel, My Love Chapter 1048
They continued chatting late into the night and only hung up when Natalie began yawning sleepily.
The next day, Natalie and Sally became quite the center of attention when they showed up at the clubhouse with
the kids and a group of bodyguards.
Sally walked with her head held high and enjoyed the looks of shock and envy from the crowd.
Amused by her behavior, Natalie decided to not stop her and just let her be.
She then brought her kids into the lounge and told them, “Connor, Sharon, I want you two to stay here. Don’t go
anywhere else, okay? I’ll come find you once the competition is over.”
“Okay!” Both of them nodded in unison.
“Very good!” Natalie gave them each a kiss on the forehead. She then turned toward Connor and said, “Connor, I
want you to either give me a call or ask the bodyguards for help if anything happens. Do not try to handle it by
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyourself. You know how crazy things have been lately. Mommy will be really sad if anything bad were to happen to
you two.”
Connor placed his hand on her cheek and said seriously, “I will, Mommy. Don’t worry, I won’t do anything rash. I
know what I need to do.”
The previous incident with Sharon had taught him that his smarts would only get him so far when going against an
adult as a child.
He knew that Jacqueline and Sean were secretly watching them, so he wasn’t about to try anything crazy or go
wandering around with Sharon.
“All right, I’ll get going now,” Natalie said as she stood up.
“Bye, Mommy!” The kids waved at her.
Natalie nodded at them with a smile before turning around and walking out of the lounge.
She then closed the door behind her and instructed two of the bodyguards outside with a stern expression, “I’m
leaving my kids under your care, so I’ll hold you two responsible if anything happens to them.”
The bodyguards straightened their posture as they replied, “Don’t worry, Madam! We’ll keep the children safe!”
“All right. Mr. Shane and I will reward you nicely if you do your jobs well!” Natalie said with a satisfied smile.
Threats alone aren’t enough to ensure loyalty in people. You need to also tempt them with some monetary
rewards. It’s pretty much the same as the carrot and stick approach.
As expected, the two bodyguards’ eyes lit up with joy upon hearing that. “Understood, Madam!”
Natalie then nodded and walked off.
Apart from the two stationed outside the lounge, the other bodyguards followed Natalie closely as more manpower
was required to keep her safe in such a crowded area.
The difficulty level gradually increased as more participants were being eliminated from the competition, and
Natalie could hear some of the designers sighing in despair as they struggled to keep up.
I feel kind of bad for them, but I’m not about to help them out. Everyone wants to succeed in life, and reality is
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsimply harsh like that. Besides, this is an elimination tournament, not an exhibition match.
With that in mind, Natalie took a deep breath and suppressed her feelings of pity as she immersed herself in the
competition.
During the break at noon, she submitted her design and was about to have lunch in the lounge with Sally when a
staff member called out to them.
When they saw the box in the staff member’s hands, the two showed no signs of surprise and simply gave each
other a knowing look in response.
Here it comes!
They had expected the package to be delivered to the clubhouse, so seeing the staff member handing them a box
confirmed their suspicions.
“Your friend had me deliver this present to you, Ms. Smith,” the staff member said.
“Thanks!” Natalie received it with a smile.
“You’re welcome.” The staff member then waved at her before walking off.
Sally waited until the staff member had gone far before snatching the box from Natalie. “Damn it! I can’t believe
she actually delivered it here!”
