“Come on, it’s your first trophy in life. There’s no way I wouldn’t be here for you,” King said as he
playfully tousled her hair, a smile spreading across his face.
Natalie was a star in all respects, certainly a queen in the world of hacking in his perspective. Yet,
having a physical trophy seemed to imbue it with an even greater significance.
She pursed her lips, looking at him with emotion welling up inside, not quite sure how to express her
gratitude, her eyes slightly glistening.
“The producers have set up a wrap party for tonight. I’ll go with you. Let’s head over,” King whispered
gently, reassuring her.

Natalie understood that King was looking out for her. The Hollywood scene could be more chaotic than
back home.
“So, how should I introduce you? As my brother?” Natalie asked softly, considering her words carefully.
“We’ll figure it out when we get there. Don’t worry about it,” King paused before replying in a casual
tone.
Uriah had always been the frontman at Bluestar, smoothing relations, and Natalie could avoid
unwanted attention. But it was different tonight.
Even though Natalie had only appeared on stage for a moment, she had drawn countless eyes. She
was unaware of her allure, but she would be the next day’s headline.
As for the evening’s introduction, King had already planned it all out.
“Let’s take a walk before the party,” King offered, extending his right hand and grinning.
Natalie hesitated before declining to take his hand.
They had shared many intimate moments, like linking arms, hugs, and playful nudges, and it had never
seemed inappropriate before. But since King said that he wanted to marry her, she realized such
interactions were no longer proper.
Instead, she playfully patted his palm and withdrew hers, saying, “I’ve been dying to try the amazing
Beef Wellington across the street. Are you up for treating me?”
King’s gaze lingered on his hand for a moment before he looked up at Natalie and replied smoothly, Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Sure.”
He didn’t mean a piece of steak. If Natalie wanted, he’d buy the whole restaurant for her.
It was a short walk to the place, only about seven or eight minutes, so they decided to stroll.
Sterlina’s nights were always warm and sweet with the scent of flowers.
Despite having completed a bloody mission there just days before, Natalie couldn’t help but

“Sterlina seems like a good place for retirement,” Natalie mused aloud, her hands clasped behind her
as they walked leisurely, a smile on her lips.
“Really?” King echoed, his gaze never leaving her.

Natalie joined in the cheers and watched contentedly as the woman accepted the keys and slipped on
the massive ring.
