Natalie was stunned. "Do you own this store?" Jack nodded.
It turned out that this candy was branded and had its own special outlet in every city's shopping mall. The candy brand was under Jack's company. Jack was here to inspect the situation of this store. The lady at the counter had already packed up a big paper bag and handed it to Natalie.
Natalie was a little embarrassed, but still accepted it.
"Natalie, how have you been doing recently?" Jack said as he walked away from the candy stall with Natalie. "Let's have a seat there." There was a beverage store just in front. Natalie didn't refuse and followed Jack into the store.
Jack ordered two cups of coffee.
"I'm fine; I'm getting married soon. Will you be coming, Jack?" Natalie took a cup of coffee. Jack's face stiffened.
After a while, he forced a smile. "Are you getting married to Tobias?" They found a spot to sit down.
"Yes, Jack." Jack gazed at Natalie.
She was glowing with happiness.
He felt his heartstrings being tugged at.
Natalie was no longer a child. She wasn't the Natalie who belonged to him alone anymore, nor was she the Natalie who had held his hand and called him her older brother, Jack.
His Natalie had grown up.
She was going to have her own love story, her own life.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUnfortunately, he wasn't the one for her.
After the initial bittersweet feeling he had, an odd emotion suddenly rose within him.
Jack's eyes flickered.
Regardless, no matter who Natalie was with, wasn't it fine as long as she could be happy? Back then, hadn't he only wished for the girl who had held his hand and called him her older brother to be happy? Jack suppressed the mixed emotions within him.
He congratulated her, saying, "Congratulations, Natalie. Tobias is a good man. You'll be treated well if you're with him." Natalie grinned. "Thank you for your blessing, Jack." She looked at Jack, her eyes gleaming as though there were a million stars twinkling within them.
She was happy because of Jack's blessings.
Jack's bittersweet emotions gradually disappeared because of Natalie.
It seemed that his blessings meant a lot to Natalie, seeing how happy she was from his congratulatory words. "Natalie, remember to inviteto the wedding. I will attend it," Jack said.
Natalie nodded solemnly.
The both of them remained seated and chatted for a while. Finally, Natalie saw that it was late and wanted to head home. "Natalie, I'll see you off," Jack immediately replied.
Natalie shook her head and said, "My chauffeur drovehere. He's waiting fordownstairs, so I'll go hin his car." Seeing as Natalie had a chauffeur, Jack did not insist.
Before she had gone far, Jack suddenly remembered something.
He immediately caught up with Natalie.
Natalie stopped and looked at Jack, asking, "Jack, what's the matter?" "Natalie, I have something to tell you." Jack looked at her with shesitation.
"Go ahead, Jack." Jack hesitated for a moment and said, "Natalie, Madison is not your biological mother. You're not the Godfrey family's daughter." Jack had begun to suspect it when he found out that Madison had lied to him. Natalie had clearly been alive, but Madison had told him that Natalie had died. When he thought about how Madison had treated Natalie when she was younger, Jack arranged for someone to investigate her.
The result of the investigation was that Natalie was indeed not Madison's daughter.
Natalie was adopted from an orphanage.
When Jack found out about this, he had been constantly wondering as to whether he should tell her.
Natalie was already grown up after all. He was afraid that it would be a huge blow to her if she suddenly found out that her own parents were not actually her parents.
Since he happened to see Natalie today, Jack felt that Natalie had the right to know.
Hence, he decided to tell her.
Natalie smiled bitterly and said, "Jack, I've known that I'm not Madison's daughter for a long time." There was a flash of surprise in Jack's eyes.
"Natalie, don't think too much about it." He comforted her.
Natalie nodded.
She took a deep breath and said, "I think it'll soon be revealed who my birth parents are. Jack, I was taken to the orphanage by someone who was working for the government back then. I've found that woman now; she currently resides in North Europe, but she's sick and can't speak at the moment. However, the hospital said that she'll recover very soon, so I think I'll get to know my true identity in no time." Jack was relieved to see Natalie like this.
He said, "Natalie, at first, I was wondering whether or not to tell you. I was worried that you wouldn't be able to handle it. Seeing you like this now puts my mind at ease."
She smiled. "Jack, you're overthinking it. How could I not be able to handle the truth? Honestly, it's a good thing V. g that Madison isn't my birth mother, because my birth mother would never be someone as vicious as Madison. This is a form of comfort to me." "Natalie, it's good that you can think like this." "Then I'll be going first, Jack." "All right." Watching as Natalie gradually disappeared, Jack's gaze wavered.

If he hadn't listened to Madison's lies back then, if he hadn't believed that Natalie had died and had taken her away instead, would everything be different? If that was the case, the current Natalie wouldn't have ended up with Tobias.
Jack suddenly smiled bitterly.
So many "what if's, but unfortunately, none of them were reality.
Natalie felt that coincidences really did happen one after another.
For example, just when she had reached the entrance of the mall and pulled open the car door, she saw Yvonne.
Yvonne was dressed very fashionably. She wore a large pair of sunglasses and was about to enter the mall. "Yvonne!" Natalie immediately shouted in excitement.
So many things had happened during this period of time, that she had almost forgotten about Yvonne. Yvonne was stunned for a few seconds before directly rushing over.
She pounded on Natalie's shoulder forcefully. "D*mn, you're finally back! Why didn't you tell me? I thought that you were still in the United..." Yvonne cut herself off.
After taking Natalie away, Selina had been worried that Yvonne would get anxious, so she specially called Yvonne to inform her.
The last tSelina sent Natalie back to her apartment, she and Yvonne had purposely exchanged numbers. This was because Yvonne was Natalie's best friend. Selina was a very straightforward person as well, so she filled Yvonne in on what had happened.

It was totally like a movie. However, afterward, Selina had also told Yvonne that Tobias was still unconscious, which was why she had called Natalie over to try and wake him up.
