From the moment Natalie had mentioned that she wanted to dress herself up for the celebration, Tobias had gone all out. He'd hired one of the world's top designers to come up with her look for the night.
Natalie was also amazed when she saw herself in the mirror.
If she was narcissistic enough, she would even think that the girl in the mirror was a goddess who'd descended on earth, and not herself.
However, in this moment, when everybody was turning to stare at her, Natalie's heart leaped to her throat again.
Tobias said gently, "Natalie, you are very beautiful tonight. Everyone will be captivated by you."
As long as it was what Natalie wanted, he would do everything he could to satisfy her.
It didn't matter to him what Natalie looked like during Peter's birthday celebration. She could even be completely barefaced, and he'd think she was pretty.
After all, no matter what, Natalie was the best in his eyes.
But Natalie had said that she wanted to be outstanding.
If that were the case, then he'd make sure that she was the center of attention, and a total showstopper.
And in this moment, Natalie was indeed the most outstanding woman present!
She had truly become the focus of the entire event.
Seeing this, Yuna was dumbfounded.
She could not believe that the woman linking arms with Tobias was Natalie.
How could that be? How could that person be Natalie?
She had already seen Natalie many times.
Natalie was nothing but an ordinary woman reeking of poverty.
She didn't seem to be interested in dressing herself up, nor did she seem to know how to.
She wore ordinary clothes, and she didn't do much about her appearance.
She was nothing compared to Yuna.
However...
Was this woman who exuded such charisma and
took everyone's breath away really Natalie?
How could a person change so much?
She was just standing there, yet Yuna, who'd dressed herself up exquisitely, was no match for her.
Yuna was completely filled with shock and astonishment.
So was Ruby.
She could not believe that the woman walking with Tobias was Natalie.
She had never seen Natalie before.
However, judging from the photos taken and Yuna's description, Ruby had had an abstract picture of Natalie's appearance.
She was a normal, completely ordinary woman, which was why Ruby had spoken to those other socialites so bluntly,
But now, what she saw was completely different from what she had imagined.
Ruby whispered in Yuna's ear, "Yuna, is there a mistake? This woman isn't Natalie at all. Did we get it wrong?"
Yuna gritted her teeth so hard that they almost shattered.
Even though the Natalie in front of her had changed so much, her facial features were still
there. She was, in fact, Natalie.
"Mom, it's her." Yuna said unwillingly.
Though she was reluctant to admit it, this stunning woman was Natalie.
Ruby was instantly dumbstruck.
She had spoken of Natalie so crassly in front of all those socialites. How was she going to cover her tracks?
Sure enough, people around her began to whisper.
