“An old woman?” Natalie asked curiously. “What did she look like?”

“She had a mole on her face. She was also dressed in a flashy style,” Sally described as she recalled the old

woman's appearance.

The corners of Natalie's mouth tugged upward and she instantly knew who it was. She held her forehand in her

hand. Feeling dumbfounded, she said, “Sal, was that old woman called Mercede?”

“Yes! That's it. That's her name.” Sally slapped her forehead. “Oh man, I swear I remembered her name when she

introduced herself the second time. I guess my memory's not as good, huh? I'm lucky to have you remind me of

her again. Say, how'd you know her name was Mercede? Have you met her by any chance?”

“My mentor's name is Mercede, remember?” Natalie replied.

Sally's jaw dropped. “Oh of course! How could I forget? So she's your mentor, huh?”

“Yup.” Natalie nodded. “I told her where I was staying when I came here for my competition. She told me she'd

meet me, but I didn't think it would be so fast.”

Mercede was one of the judges in the final round of the international competition. Hence, Natalie was surprised that

Mercede came to visit her.

“I'm sorry, Nat. I didn't realize that she was your mentor. I would have invited her in if I knew that...” Sally said

apologetically.

“That's okay. I'm sure it's going to be fine. I'll just give her a call later.”

“Alright.” Sally nodded.

Natalie quickly dialed Mercede's number once she hung up the call with Sally. I wonder why she's here at such an

early time. Shouldn't she be attending some high-class designer gathering?

Yet, Mercede didn't pick up.

Natalie wasn't worried that Mercede was in danger just because the latter didn't pick up her call. After all, she was a

top-notch designer that was constantly surrounded by bodyguards. Hence, Natalie doubt she would be in any sort

of danger.

She must be caught up with something, that's why she didn't pick up my call.

Natalie decided to text Mercede next.

She'll reply once she sees it.

In the evening, Natalie and Sean met at a hotel for dinner.

Natalie did not request a private room and instead opted for a seat in the main dining area.

Although it'll be a little noisy and crowded with people, at least I would be safe. This way, I don't need to worry

about what Sean would do to me. I'm way too scared to stay in a private room with a crazy guy like him.

Sean seemed to guess what she was thinking. “Are you really that afraid of me?” He rested his cheeks on his hands

and asked.

Natalie's lips twitched. “Of course, who wouldn't be afraid of someone who drags people off a cliff with them?”

“So you're still hung up on what happened last time, huh?” Sean laughed.

“I'll never forget what happened last time.” Natalie took a sip of water and continued, “Besides, that, I'm your

cousin-in-law. So it's best if you address me by my full name.”

Sean ignored her as he stared deeply into her eyes. “But I prefer calling you Nat.”

Natalie secretly rolled her eyes and decided to drop the subject.

Forget it, he's probably never going to listen to me. I know I'm going to be the one who gets mad at trying to

correct him in the end.

Sean was a little sad that Natalie didn't intend to argue back. He lifted the wine glass and began to twirl it. “So, how

have you been? I heard you're going through a rough patch with Shane and you're even considering filing for a

divorce.”

Natalie looked up to meet his eyes. “Wow, I'm impressed at how much you know about us, Mr. Sean. It seems that

you've been very well-informed despite being away.”

“Shane's looking everywhere for me and I don't want to get caught. It's only natural for me to keep an eye on him

as well. It isn't a surprise that I know all of this.” He smiled.

“Perhaps you also know the reason behind our conflict, then?” Natalie fixed her eyes on him.

Sean's gaze darkened as he took a sip of wine and answered, “Of course I do. It's because of my uncle and aunt's

death.”
