The Year I Was the Other Woman To Myself novel Chapter 641

The woman was an actress, and though not famous, she was terrified of a scandal getting out, especially since Marico was engaged. She quickly covered her face, adjusted her clothes, and ran off.

Marico was left fuming. He was furious that Natalie and her daughter had interrupted him. He was about to lash out when he saw the chubby girl tilting her head and smiling at him.

He instinctively straightened his clothes and then yelled at Natalie, “Are you crazy? What are you doing bringing your daughter here!”

“You're the one who's crazy!” Natalie shot back.

If he wanted to cheat, he should have gotten a hotel room, not defiled a public space.

After that retort, Natalie ignored Marico, took her daughter's hand, and started to walk away. Every day is a lesson in regret. She chose carelessly, yes — but carelessness shouldn't have led to a man who doesn't know what integrity means.

She needed to get back to the hotel and shower immediately. Every time she saw him, she felt contaminated.

Marico was livid about being interrupted and stalked down the mountain with a dark expression. If he weren't against getting rough with women he'd slept with, he'd find a chance to beat her. Beat her until she was crawling on the ground, begging him for mercy.

Just as he was enjoying the thought, Kristin let go of her mother's hand and ran toward him.

“I remember you! You saved me!”

Marico scoffed. “Nice of you to remember. Since I saved you, how are you going to repay me?”

Kristin had come prepared. She pulled a piece of milk candy from her pocket and offered it to Marico on her tiptoes.

“This is my favorite candy. It's really yummy!”

Marico glanced at it. “You think one piece of candy repays a life debt?”

Kristin thought for a moment. “From now on, I'll share all my good things with you, sir!”

“What good things could you possibly have that I'd want?”

Back at the set, the director was looking for Natalie.

“The production next door has wrapped. They're having a wrap party and invited some of our main cast and crew, including you. Let's go over together.”

Natalie couldn't understand why a different production would invite them, but she heard it was a major project with a famous director, writer, and producer. Since she was just making her comeback, it was a good opportunity to be seen.

“But I have my daughter with me.”

“That's fine. I heard some of their actors are bringing their kids, too. They can all play together.”

With the director putting it that way, Natalie felt she couldn't refuse.

The wrap party was at a hotel just outside the film studio complex. When Natalie and her group arrived, the place was already bustling with activity.
