Chapter 748
With a huff, Vera said dismissively, “You’re the one who drove Laney away with her child, remember? Don’t be hypocritical. Get out. You’re not welcome here.”
Now completely on guard against Kailee, Vera feared falling prey to her deceptions once more.
Otherwise, she would definitely become the biggest laughing stock of their circle.
Realizing Vera wouldn’t budge, Kailee offered tearful apologies several more times before departing, dejected.
The moment she stepped outside, she swiftly wiped away her tears. A wicked smile overtook her remorseful expression.
In her mind, Kailee seethed at Natalie, the vile woman responsible for her plan’s failure. Had it not been for her meddling, she would have married into the Harding family long ago!
Though she couldn’t retaliate against Natalie directly, she could still manipulate Vera to confront Natalie.
She relished the thought of Natalie’s reaction when the Harding family came knocking with rebuke.
As for Laney…
A bone-chilling smile came over Kailee’s face. Her plan’s exposure didn’t mean her chances with Garrett were dashed.
As long as the Hardings kept hounding Laney, perhaps even fighting for custody, the rift between Laney and Garrett would only widen.
Eventually, it would become irreparable.
At that point, Laney would definitely divorce Garrett, providing Kailee with another opportunity to draw near Garrett.
She had sacrificed so much, even her reputation, just to marry into the Harding family.
Though her plans had gone awry, she refused to surrender.
One way or another, she was determined to become the future matriarch of the Harding family.
That day, Natalie was working on a new clothing design draft early in the morning when she suddenly received a message text from Laney.
“Thank you, Natalie. I’ve settled into the new city, and Ian is still as caring and professional as always. He takes good care of both me and the child.”
Natalie subconsciously smiled when she saw the text.
It seemed like Laney and her child were doing well in the new city. Knowing that put her mind at ease.
However, when she thought about Garrett, she felt a little gloomy.
She didn’t know if what she did for Laney would lead to a worse outcome for she and Garrett’s relationship, especially since being separated could pose a big challenge to any relationship.
After pondering for a while, Natalie sent a text to Laney, saying, “Laney, would you consider giving Garrett another chance? I feel like he knows what he did wrong this time.”
Natalie’s text received no response for quite a while.
As Natalie carefully analyzed the photo, Elizabeth spoke up.
“The photos were taken by an artist by chance. Once they were released, the photos instantly went viral. They have also sparked discussions on social media platforms. Everyone is trying to figure out who the lady was, and who designed the clothes that she wore. When I found out it was Hannah, I thought you might want to see the photos.”
Natalie scrolled through the comments, and as Elizabeth told her, the users were praising Hannah’s clothes. Several users were expressing their desire to buy the same design for their own relatives to wear.
Other users even wanted to commission the designer behind Hannah’s clothes to make other garments.
Elizabeth enthusiastically snapped her fingers as she added, “I think this would be an amazing chance to promote your design studio!”
Natalie’s eyes lit up when she saw how much the commenters praised her designs.
She then nodded and replied, “You’re right. This is a great opportunity.”
“I think you should contact this artist right away and use this opportunity to advertise your studio,” Elizabeth suggested. “The artist’s contact information should be on their profile page.”
Natalie nodded. It didn’t take long for her to find the artist’s phone number. She took several deep breaths to ease her nervousness before she eagerly dialed the number.
“Hello.” The stranger’s voice brought a vague sense of familiarity to Natalie, but she couldn’t pin it down to a face.
She replied politely, “Hello, is this Mr. Clyde Lambert, the artist?”
