55 vouchers

As soon as Natasha arrived at the Whittier Group, she heard Joelle was being sent to work at one of their overseas branches.

The whole company was buzzing, everyone gossiping about it.

They said Bernard was intentionally sending his eldest daughter away.

Joelle going abroad basically meant she was kicked out of the Whittier family’s power circle.

From now on, it was nearly impossible for her to have a shot at inheriting Whittier Group.

As soon as Roxanne got the news, she stormed into the Whittier Group that very day.

She and Bernard got into a fierce argument in his office.

“Bernard, don’t you dare forget I own shares in Whittier Group, too! How could you do this to our only daughter? How could you send Joelle overseas without even talking to me first? I won’t stand for this!” Roxanne threatened.

She shot Bernard a look that could kill, her eyes burning with hatred.

She fumed inwardly, I’ve already swallowed my grievances and agreed to let Bernard bring his side chick and her kid into the family.

‘At that time, Bernard had promised me that the other woman’s child would never mess with Joelle’s future, would never outrank Joelle in the Whittier family or Whittier Group.

‘But now, it seems Bernard had forgotten every word he said.

‘He gave Natasha shares and brought her on board at Whittier Group, all while I was dead set against it.

‘And now, to boost Natasha, he was actually shipping Joelle off to some overseas branch.

If my daughter is sent abroad, what place will she even have in the Whittier Group down the line?”

“You have no idea what’s going on. Have you even bothered to ask what your daughter did, or who she managed to cross?” Bernard said, trying to keep his anger in check, massaging his temples as the headache set in.

Roxanne fired back, “I don’t care! No matter what she’s done, she’s still our only daughter. If you won’t stand up for her, if you won’t protect her, and instead send her away overseas, that makes you the worst kind of father.”

Bernard let out a long sigh. “You think I don’t want to protect her? Sending her overseas is the only way I can truly keep her safe right now.

“She’s offended Jared and seriously angered Percy. If I insist on keeping her here regardless of everything, I’d be ruining her life for real.”

Hearing that, Roxanne was floored.

“What? How could Joelle have offended Jared and Percy? Didn’t Percy always have a thing for her?” she blurted out.

Bernard frowned. “That was in the past. Percy doesn’t want her anymore. This time, Joelle locked Natasha in the basement warehouse and nearly killed her.

“Percy is Natasha’s ex-husband, and Jared is her current boyfriend. There’s no way those two would let Joelle off the hook.

“Sending Joelle overseas is already the mildest punishment I could give her. If I don’t step in now and let them deal with her themselves, Joelle will face a far worse fate.”

Roxanne looked like she couldn’t accept it. “I’ve always said that vixen Natasha is nothing but trouble.”

‘Wasn’t Percy supposed to be Joelle’s protector? How could he help Natasha instead? Even a big shot like Jared has taken a fancy to Natasha, Roxanne grumbled inwardly.

In Roxannie’s eyes, Natasha must’ve used some shady tactics to reel them in.

Otherwise, how could both those men be standing up for her at the same time?

Roxanne was seething with anger and resentment.

Back then, she’d done everything she could to marry Joelle up into a rich family, while marrying Natasha off to someone way below their status, all so Joelle would have a powerful backer, and nobody would dare bully her.

But who could’ve guessed things would end up completely flipped like this?

Joelle messed with Natasha again, just like she always did.

But who could’ve imagined that this time, she really blew things up?

Joelle ended up getting shipped off overseas.

Roxanne was truly indignant and unwilling to accept it.

But there was nothing she could do.

After all, Natasha had powerful backers now.

Roxanne couldn’t lay a finger on her.

But Roxanne had also heard that Jared was about to marry the girl from the Lipsey family.

And she believed Percy would definitely end up with a well-matched girl from a powerful family.

Once that happened, they’d have nothing to do with Natasha anymore.

At that time, I could deal with Natasha however I want, Roxanne thought.

Natasha figured she’d give it some time before meeting up with Jared again.

After all, they’d just made things official and already hooked up twice in a row.

She wanted them both to cool off for a while.

She also needed to catch up on some rest.

But as soon as she got off work, Jared showed up to pick her up.

Natasha hopped into his luxury car, thinking he’d take her back to his villa.

But to her surprise, he actually brought her to a brand-new exotic restaurant.

“Heard you like spicy food, so I picked this place. It’s all about the heat,” Jared said.

Natasha’s face froze for a moment.

Who told him I like spicy stuff? Could it be Nicolas? So he already knows about that spicy dinner with Nicolas, she thought.

“Thanks,” Natasha said, nodding awkwardly.

She didn’t bring it up.

The restaurant had a scan-and-order system.

Jared handed her the ordering tablet, letting her decide.

“What are you in the mood for?” Natasha asked before ordering

Jared shrugged, “I’ll eat whatever you order.”

He wasn’t picky at all.

Still, Natasha made sure to pick out a whole spread of dishes she knew he’d enjoy.

As soon as Natasha took a bite, she thought the food was amazing, and the spice level was perfect.

She couldn’t hide how satisfied she was, her face practically glowing with happiness as she ate.

Jared watched her, utterly adorable and content with her mouth stuffed full of food, and his mood lightened at the sight.

He thought to himself, ‘Yeah, bringing her here was definitely the right call.

“You should eat too,” Natasha said.

Noticing Jared staring at her without eating, she prompted him to start eating as well.

Jared couldn’t really handle spicy food.

He was biting the bullet to keep her company today.

But since it was for her, he didn’t mind at all. He felt it was totally worth it.

They were in the middle of their meal when a waiter suddenly came over to invite them.

“Excuse me, we’re running a couples’ game here. Would you like to join in?” the waiter asked.

Natasha shook her head right away. “No, thanks.”

She just wanted to enjoy her meal in peace and had zero interest in joining any games.

But to her surprise, Jared looked genuinely interested. “What kind of game?”

The waiter beamed, “It’s a fun little game for couples to see how in sync you are.”

Natasha couldn’t help but frown at that.

Jared and I haven’t been together for long. There’s no way we’d be as in sync as the other couples, she thought.
