A Cue for Love -
Chapter 761
Chapter 761 Remain Kneeling
“Really?” Natalie asked, resting her cheek in her palm.
“We have advanced technology now. Even if they’re not fraternal twins, they still can share the same face after undergoing plastic surgery,” Samuel said in a low voice. “Perhaps one can make a perfect copy of another person’s exterior, but the soul within that husk can never be imitated. I will never mistake someone else as you.”
How could Natalie not believe him?
She had that ugly hyper-realistic mask back then, but Samuel had still realized that it was her. Yara had pretended to be her for five years, and she never managed to win over his heart. In other words, the love the man had for her had never been a superficial one.
Natalie smiled and replied, “Samuel, if you mistook me for someone else, I’ll leave you.”
“You won’t have the chance to.” He then pinched Natalie’s pink cheeks before continuing, “Hurry and dig in. Your favorite food won’t taste as good if gets cold.”
“Mm.”
After breakfast, Natalie left home and went to Dream Corporation.
it was not a tough feat to acquire Dexmed Pharmaceutical. What was difficult was rebuilding Dexmed Pharmaceutical’s reputation. That was her grandfather’s hard work, and she wanted to salvage the brand’s reputation.
Soon, she arrived at the entrance of the building.
Just as she was about to enter the office, a male voice sounded out nearby. “Natalie, it’s me. Won’t you talk to your father? I have some things I want to talk to you about.”
The only person in the world who dared to call himself her father was Thomas.
She could never forget the stormy night when her mother passed away. She had been on her knees in front of the Nichols family’s entrance, begging Thomas to let Yara meet her one last time so that her mother could pass on in peace. Yet, Yvonne and he had refused to let her into the house.
Moreover, she would never forget how Thomas had sold her away to an old man in his sixties for his own benefit. However, as she ended up losing her virginity, she lost her value as a bargaining chip. In his fury, he had thrown an ashtray at her.
As long as she was human and possessed emotions, she would never think of a man like him as her father.
Upon hearing his voice, Natalie froze for a second. Then, her cold eyes landed on Thomas. “I’m sorry, but I only have a mother and a granddad. I don’t have a father, so please don’t try to pretend to be close to me.”
Thomas’ expression darkened. “I know… I’ve wronged you many times, so you hate me. I know I’ve made a mistake. I really do. Please give me a chance to talk with you.”
“I’m busy.” Natalie’s lips curled into a sneer. “I don’t have time to talk to you about these things. Anyway, we’re already in the process of acquiring the company. In a few days’ time, Dexmed Pharmaceutical won’t be yours anymore. You should spend more time in that office of yours because you won’t be able to enter it anymore in the future.”
Hearing that, Thomas’ heart lurched.
The company had been his for over twenty years, but soon, he was going to lose it. Furthermore, he was going to lose it to Natalie. That was a fact he could not bring himself to accept.
Ignoring the fact that many people were coming and going from Dream Corporation’s office, he suddenly kneeled before Natalie.
“Natalie, please spare me a chance for the sake of what we used to be. I really can’t live without Dexmed Pharmaceutical. Please help me out. Please.” Thomas had no choice but to kneel before her. The only person who could help him now was Natalie.
Natalie’s gaze flitted past Thomas’ knees.
She was a little taken aback by his gesture, but at the same time, it did not seem too surprising that he would do that.
For the sake of power, Thomas had betrayed her grandfather, driven her mother away, and made her marriage into a deal, but now, he was begging her like a lowly dog. Everything fitted his character.
Thomas thought that his kneeling would stun Natalie into submission. However, to his surprise, Natalie was unfazed by both his actions and the looks of the passersby as she uttered, “If everything can be solved by just kneeling before another person, then we won’t need the police. Still, if you enjoy the feeling of being down on your knees, go ahead. I’d like to see how much sincerity you have.”
