She shot Sharon a provocative smile . That did it Sharon's temper flared instantly . Natalie , flaunting her closeness with Jensen in public , was humiliating her . She was the one who came with Jensen . She was his legal wife . Who gave Natalie the right to act so smug ? Why did the bracelet look so familiar ? Fury boiling over , Sharon stormed toward her and shoved her hard . " Natalie , today's the launch of Luke Corp's Devotion series . Why is that bracelet on your wrist ? Did you steal it ? " So this was how Sharon was going to do it - publicly shame her , drag her down . Her voice was loud enough for the whole crowd to hear . Everyone turned to Natalie . In her pearl - white dress , the moonlight diamond bracelet gleaming on her wrist , she was a vision . But thanks to Sharon's outburst , the atmosphere changed instantly . " Someone that pretty ... a thief ? " " Just goes to show you never really know people . And the way she was hanging on Mr. Luke just now ? Definitely shady . " Natalie's face paled under the weight of their judgment . She bit her lower lip , voice trembling but resolute . " This is mine . " Sharon burst out laughing . " Yours ? Don't make me laugh ! A broke fraud like you can afford diamonds ? " Let me enlighten you all , " Sharon turned to the crowd dramatically . " This woman's name is Natalie . She was the fake daughter our family raised by mistake . We kicked her out five years ago . She couldn't possibly afford that bracelet . " Natalie's hands trembled .

The whip scars on her back still throbbed at the memory . 2/4 11 Chapter 4 This Is Mine Is Free Coins And Jensen -he knew . He was the one who had carefully tended those wounds , terrified of hurting her Now when Natalie looked to him , he looked away . He didn't speak up for her . Didn't defend her . He didn't dare cross Sharon She had known he wasn't worth hoping for Ban it still hurt like hell . Five years of love flashed before her eyes - every tender smile , every warm touch , now just dull blades shcing her to pieces . She swallowed it all and said , " Ms. Summers , accusing me of theft based solely on identity ... isn't that a bit presumptuous ? How do you know I haven't made a name for myself over the past five years ? " Sharon sneered . " You ? Made a name for yourself ? That's rich ! You want proof ? Fine , I'll give it to you ." She tossed her hair and turned to the crowd proudly . " Everyone here knows this launch is for the Devotion series designed by the elusive Sunny . Well , I'm Sunny . That bracelet she's wearing is my design . Mr. Luke can confirm it ! " Gasps erupted throughout the hall . " What ? Ms. Summers is Sunny ? " " Mr. Luke , is this true ? Sunny has only ever worked with Luke Corp , and no one's ever seen her . Is it really Sharon ? " Reporters swarmed forward . Natalie didn't look at them . Her sharp , elegant eyes stayed locked on Jensen . Her fists clenched around the fabric of her dress . She wanted to hear him say it . With his own mouth . Jensen felt her gaze and his brows creased tighter and tighter . Then Sharon clung to his arm and whined softly , " Jensen- " Just that one word . A plea . He remembered she didn't have long to live . His heart softened . " Yes . Sharon is Sunny . She's been Luke Corp's chief designer these past five years . " The moment the words left his mouth , Natalie heard her heart break . No one knew better than Jensen how much she had sacrificed to create those designs . And now , without hesitation , he handed it all to Sharon . Fine.So be it .

" You all heard it . That bracelet is my work . Which means Natalie stole it . She probably took other designs too . Security ! Strip her down , take her bag - I want to check everything myself ! " Two guards stepped forward without hesitation . They seized Natalie's arms and slammed her to the cold floor With a sharp rip , her dress strap tore open - exposing her back . The crowd gasped at the sight of the disfiguring whip scars running down her spine . And in the audience , a man clenched his wine glass so tightly it shattered in his hand . Blood dripped from his palm , red against the white shards - his eyes glinting with barely restrained murderous rage . 4/4
