Bye-bye Trash! Hello Queen! novel Chapter 355

Marshall's eyes narrowed. "I understand, Natalie."

The gala was being held at the Yaro Grand Hotel, its ballroom a glittering spectacle of gold and crystal.

The hall was already filled with elegantly dressed guests, their conversations a low hum beneath the gentle strains of classical music.

Marshall first took Natalie to a private suite to meet his grandmother, Mrs. Spencer Sr., before introducing her to two directors from high-end textile companies. After they exchanged contact information, Marshall excused himself to find his friends, promising to be back in half an hour.

Just then, Matthew appeared, so Marshall left Natalie in his care.

Matthew's gaze was fixed on Natalie's stunning face. She was radiant tonight, her skin almost glowing. The pink dress she wore, with a diamond-studded collar, perfectly accentuated her delicate and captivating features.

"Natalie, you look stunning tonight," he said, his voice soft and full of admiration.

Natalie smiled, a little bashful from his praise. "I used to be so plain. But now I'm living for myself, so of course, I have to dress up."

Her smile was dazzling, and under the ballroom lights, her eyes seemed to hold a galaxy of stars.

Matthew was mesmerized. His grandfather had exiled him abroad for years, where he'd met countless beautiful women—some who tried to seduce him, others who threw themselves at him—but none had ever struck him as profoundly beautiful as the woman standing before him.

"Come on, Natalie. I'll introduce you to some of my friends," he said, his voice growing even gentler.

"Okay!" she agreed. As a future powerhouse, his friends were bound to be influential people she wanted to meet.
