“Angela is absolutely beautiful.”
“Isn't that obvious? She’s a global beauty pageant winner and the young lady of the Everhart family of Valeronne. She's the real deal—beautiful, rich, and from a prestigious family.”
“Speaking of the true Everhart heiress from Valeronne, it’s not actually Angela.”
“What do you mean? If the Everhart family’s heiress isn't Angela, then who is it? I’ve never heard of another young lady in the Everhart family.”
“Over a decade ago, the true heiress of the Everhart family was Rose Everhart. She was already internationally acclaimed at a young age. Unfortunately, her entire family was kidnapped, and all three of them died. The Everhart family fortune then fell into the hands of Angela's father, who is the younger brother of Rose Everhart's father. That's how Angela became the young lady of the Everhart family.”
“So that’s how it is. That's a tragic story for Rose Everhart!”
As Natalie listened to the chatter, a sharp pang of anxiety tightened in her chest.
Why did it hurt so much?
Was it because she was bothered by how much Angela looked like her? Or was it because Angela was Terence's idealized first love?
But why was the pain in her heart so sharp?
On stage, Angela looked at Natalie with a triumphant expression.
Natalie’s pained expression was exactly what she had expected.
It must be because she’s jealous, Angela thought. That’s why she’s in so much pain. And there will be plenty more for her to feel pained about in the future.
Angela, full of confidence, spoke from the stage, “Thank you all for attending this press conference to witness the partnership between the Everhart Group and the Cross Group. The Cross Group is a company with infinite potential. Although it has stagnated due to some minor setbacks, the Everhart Group will always be its most solid support. I am confident that the Cross Group's future development will be immeasurable. Let us all witness and look forward to the growth of the Cross Group.”
