00:00After the heated exchange, Natalie did not have any contact with her family for almost
00:07a week.
00:08Then, in the blink of an eye, the day of the engagement party arrived.
00:13Not only were they celebrating the couple, but also the joining of the Davidson and Barnard
00:19families.
00:20They were two powerful families in Seattle, and so a lot of well-known political and business
00:26figures were coming.
00:29Tom stood at the door of the party hall to greet the guests.
00:32Seeing that it was nearly time, he called Nick over to talk to him.
00:36Cheryl and her mother have suffered a lot in the past.
00:40He sighed and said earnestly,
00:41Now that you two are engaged, you mustn't disappoint me.
00:46If you treat her badly, I won't let you off easily.
00:50Nick nodded his head seriously.
00:53Don't worry.
00:54I'll take good care of her and never upset her, not in the slightest.
00:58Satisfied, Tom patted his shoulder.
01:01But then, as if he had just thought of something, he turned around and looked toward the door.
01:06That woman will be coming today, right?
01:09Of course.
01:10I hope she doesn't cause any trouble.
01:12A trace of annoyance immediately surfaced on his face.
01:16It was difficult for us to get Mr. Walker to attend, so we can't let anything go wrong.
01:22You have to ensure that everything goes off without a hitch.
01:26Mr. Walker was a very powerful man, and most of the people from the business community
01:31attending today were keen to meet him.
01:34If they could take advantage of this opportunity to get even a tiny bit closer to him, the
01:40Davidsons and the Barnards would be in a much better position in the future.
01:46While the two of them were talking, Cheryl finished dressing and walked leisurely down
01:51the stairs.
01:52She was wearing a long, plain, champagne-colored dress that made her skin appear as white as
01:58freshly fallen snow, and her curly brown hair was pulled into a bun at the side, revealing
02:04her long, white neck.
02:06Her appearance caused quite a stir.
02:09All the guests nodded their heads in praise of her beauty.
02:13Cheryl was overjoyed, and she walked up to Nick and hooked her arm through his.
02:19Tom watched the two of them and sighed with emotion.
02:22I'm handing my precious daughter over to you.
02:26You must look after her for me.
02:28Nick stretched out his hand and took hold of Cheryl's.
02:31He smiled at her, and then turned back to Tom and solemnly promised,
02:35I will live up to your expectations.
02:38When the nearby guests saw this, they were filled with praise.
02:41Oh, they are such a wonderful couple.
02:44A talented man and a talented woman.
02:47It makes me so happy.
02:49Just then, someone raised their voice.
02:51Don't you have another daughter, Tom?
02:53How come I haven't seen her for a while?
02:54If I remember correctly, this man was her fiancé once, right?
02:58The words were like a bomb.
03:00The entire hall erupted into commotion.
03:03Those who knew the story lowered their voices and said,
03:06How could she ever have had the nerve to show her face?
03:09I heard she did something so shameful that they secretly sent her abroad.
03:13I don't even know whether she's back or not.
03:16Who knows?
03:17Someone immediately retorted, wasn't Tom's wife also a mistress?
03:21Maybe the apple doesn't fall far from the tree,
03:23and Cheryl actually stole her sister's fiancé.
03:26There were many different opinions among the crowd.
03:29Tom's face became gloomy listening to the words that were circulating.
03:34This was Cheryl's engagement party, not an opportunity
03:37to dig into her past and gossip.
03:40How could he tolerate that other woman becoming the focus of attention?
03:44He was looking around the hall in annoyance
03:46when he saw Natalie walk in with Liam.
03:49Although she hadn't shown her face in this circle for five years,
03:52her brilliance was still the same.
03:54Whether it was her appearance or her aura,
03:57she still had the grace and beauty that people remembered from back then.
04:01But she seemed to have matured a lot.
04:03Her arrogance had become more restrained,
04:06creating an even more striking impression.
04:09Look, I told you she was extraordinary.
04:11Her personality alone is enough to make people jealous.
04:15The guest who had said that he thought Cheryl wasn't inferior to Natalie
04:19immediately lowered his head in shame.
04:22Tom's expression turned cold.
04:24He walked up to Natalie and lowered his voice,
04:26trying his best to control his voice.
04:29What's wrong with you?
04:30Didn't I say that you couldn't bring the child?
04:33He felt that she was purposely going against his wishes
04:37and trying to make a scene at Cheryl's engagement party.
04:40He pointed towards the door, his expression furious,
04:43and he didn't hold back his emotions.
04:45Get someone to take him away or I'll kick him out.
04:49Tom's dismissive attitude to Liam was like a needle
04:52that pierced Natalie's heart.
04:54If that's the case, she stood tall and looked at the child in her arms.
04:59Why did you make me travel all the way here?
05:01You knew it would make you unhappy.
05:03Don't worry, I'll leave with him right now.
05:06Seeing that she was about to leave, Cheryl became anxious.
05:09She quickly forced a smile and said, Natalie, don't leave.
05:13Daddy was just being impulsive.
05:15He hasn't forgotten about you once in the past five years.
05:18With one hand holding on to Tom and the other holding her fiance,
05:22she tilted her head and smiled, don't be angry.
05:25Today is my engagement party.
05:26I really want your blessing.
05:28Looking at her, Natalie couldn't help but sneer.
05:31Cheryl's silent boasting was much more powerful
05:34than her dignified words.
05:36She wanted to show off how good her life was
05:38to prove that she had stolen her place in the Davidson family.
05:42Natalie saw all this and ignored her.
05:45She turned to look at her father who was still upset.
05:48What?
05:49Do you want me to stay?
05:50Tom looked at her and saw that her eyes were full of hurt.
05:54He waved his hand impatiently and said in a harsh tone,
05:57go and stand to the side.
05:59Don't wander around in front of us.
06:02She wasn't in the mood to argue with him.
06:04So she took Liam's hand and found a corner to sit down in.
06:08Although the hall was bustling with noise and excitement,
06:11Natalie felt tired.
06:13Five years ago, she had been cruelly exiled.
06:16And now she was back with no choice
06:19but to attend Nick and Cheryl's engagement party.
06:22She didn't know what Tom was thinking.
06:24The more she thought about it,
06:26the more her head started to ache.
06:28Her old illness had returned
06:30and she had not been able to shake it off
06:31for the past two days.
06:33The pressure of everything mixed together
06:36and she held onto her forehead in pain.
06:38Mommy.
06:39Liam noticed her discomfort.
06:42He held onto the armrest of the chair and asked,
06:44are you okay?
06:46Without waiting for her to speak,
06:48he ran to a waiter
06:49and asked for a cup of water in a childish voice.
06:52The waiter looked at this obedient and sensible little boy
06:56and was struck by how cute he was.
06:58He agreed and returned with a cup of water.
07:01After drinking half of it,
07:02Natalie felt slightly better.
07:04She rubbed her temples,
07:06finally managing to calm down.
07:08And when she looked up,
07:09she saw Tom and an older man walking towards her.
07:16Tom came closer.
