Caught Him Cheating My Life Restarted (Natalie) novel Chapter 196

"Didn't Hanley say before that his Auntie Marie and Patrick are on good terms? She was a gold medalist in the International Mathematical Union competition, so she must have crossed paths with him."

"His Auntie Marie is so impressive. Not only is she rich, but she's also brilliant. A gold medalist in that competition? That's insane."

"Beautiful, rich, capable, and she grants his every wish. No wonder Hanley likes her so much."

At that moment, the entire venue was buzzing with praise for Marie.

Natalie's sorrow was slowly drowned out by the chorus of admiration.

A bitter smile touched her lips, and when Darren saw it, he felt a sharp pang in his chest.

"My Auntie Marie is a Ward. One day, she will inherit the Ward Group and become its president. She is a gold medalist in the International Mathematical Union competition. She's not just beautiful and capable, she's also so good to me. Having her in my life is the greatest blessing I could ask for. And for that, I want to formally thank her."

Hanley gave Marie a deep bow. Darren, whose eyes had been fixed on Natalie, only turned back in time to see the gesture, but it was too late to stop him.

Watching Hanley bow to Marie on stage, Natalie felt an unbearable pain in her heart.

He didn't have to be grateful to her for bringing him into this world. He didn't have to apologize to her. But why did he have to hurt her like this?

Natalie's hands clenched into tight fists. Lucas couldn't stand it anymore.

That little jerk, Hanley, had deliberately called Natalie over just to hurt her like this. It was despicable!

"Natalie, don't be sad. That little brat doesn't even recognize his own mother. I'm going to go up there and knock some sense into him until he does."

Lucas started to move forward, but Natalie grabbed his hand. Her voice was faint. "Let it go. It's his birthday. As long as he's happy."
