At the moment, Alex’s face darkened.
The elders in the hall also began to whisper with each other. Their gaze toward Natasha changed from excruciating grief to extreme disappointment.
What an embarrassment! An utter embarrassment!
After taking back his laptop, Sean enunciated, “Dear Natasha, don’t you understand? Now, the main point isn’t who you slept with last night, but you tried to snatch away a married man by forging a marriage certificate, which the whole country now knows. This is such an embarrassment to the Mitchell Family!”
Natasha’s high-profile pursuit after Taylor, a married man, had already angered the elders of the Mitchell Family, but unexpectedly, she still tried to twist the truth in front of everyone. She knew clearly that Taylor was married, but she still shamelessly claimed to be his real wife and forged a marriage certificate; even so, she was still being unreasonable toward the situation.
The stage name on the marriage certificate and the humiliation by others had completely tarnished the reputation of the Mitchell Family!
Facing everyone’s accusation, Natasha’s face immediately became pale, but she was still headstrong as she put on her usual arrogance and wits.
“Since the situation is irreversible, the only plan we have now is to ask Taylor to marry me immediately. If he explains everything to the public, we can still retain our reputation.”
“Haha!” Sean sneered and cut off her words. Then, he walked toward her step by step while questioning, “But they are a perfect couple. Natasha, are you saying that you want to break up a perfect couple and force Taylor to admit to his marriage with you?”
Natasha lifted her chin and said confidently, “At this point, the Mitchell Family’s reputation is more important.”
Suddenly, Sean couldn’t hold back his laughter. “Natasha, aren’t you afraid of offending Taylor and his wife? What if he brings more trouble to our family?”
“No one can compete with the Mitchell Family.” Her words were firm.
Meanwhile, Alex’s face had completely darkened, while the elders still carried on with their whispers.
A section of them felt that they should force Taylor to change his comments and admit to his marriage with Natasha, while the other section felt that going against Taylor without knowing his background might bring forth an unknown power against them in the future.
Both parties were now locked in an argument.
At the end, they came up with a conclusion—Taylor needed to admit to his marriage with Natasha quickly, even if they had to threaten him with a knife on his neck. He must confess that he was forced by someone to make the comments in the live broadcast!
Only in this way could the Mitchell Family retain its reputation instantly.
Sean wasn’t surprised that the elders had made such a decision.
Heh, the Mitchell Family are still living in the glory past of Cooper. Every one of them is so self-complacent. It’s time for them to eat some humble pie.
Suddenly, he said to everyone, “After all, Nat is still young and ignorant. That is why she has made mistakes without knowing the severity of it. Fortunately, the situation is still reversible. We need to first think of a way to retain our reputation from our glory days.”
Finally, the elders remained silent, but they were still extremely disappointed toward the talented but deceitful young lady of the family, Natasha. They were even disappointed in Alex, who spoiled her, but now, they could only try to save what they could.
Once, the elders thought that Natasha was the second coming of Cooper, but by the looks of it now, they had overestimated Natasha and underestimated Cooper.
Thinking of Cooper, an elder asked hurriedly, “Sean, didn’t you say that you’ve found news that Cooper is still alive? Hurry up and tell us!”
“That’s right. Hurry up and tell us!”
The subject of today’s meeting wasn’t only about cleaning up Natasha’s mess, but also about Cooper!
Cooper was still alive!
Just when the elders were discussing the search for Cooper enthusiastically, Natasha, who was pleased with herself just now, felt a sense of fear that she had never felt before.
She had always been the well-loved genius of the family, and she was even dubbed as the second coming to Cooper, but now, the real Cooper was coming back!
If he comes back, will he bring along with him a daughter too? Does that mean I’ll no longer be the most beloved daughter of the Mitchell Family?
She helplessly glanced at Alex and saw that his expression remained dark.
As she seemed to feel that she had lost everything, she glared at Sean furiously.
It’s all because of him. If it weren’t for this damn eunuch, news about Cooper’s return wouldn’t have spread through the entire Mitchell Family!
Before the meeting was over, Natasha was sent back to her room by Alex to reflect on her mistake. This time, she didn’t dare to throw a temper because she knew that her position in the family was under threat.
At the same time, the Mitchell Family started to get in touch with Taylor. Let’s hope he can come out and correct his comments. If he doesn’t, we’ll force him to! He is just a rich performer that we won’t even bat our eye on. If Natasha didn’t insist on marrying him and him only, we wouldn’t even have acknowledged his existence!
However, after going back to her room, Natasha still wouldn’t give up, so she secretly escaped.
She wanted to ask Taylor clearly. I need to get Old Madam Murray to back me. With that old woman supporting me, he must marry me.
After she was gone, she was never heard from for a while.
In less than a few hours, the Mitchell Family received an anonymous letter and a video containing Natasha being tied up while shouting in horror, “Dad, help me…”
The anonymous letter requested a 3-billion ransom that must be paid within the next 10 hours; otherwise, pictures and videos of Natasha would be uploaded to a pornsite tomorrow…
