The Beauty and the Brain

Chapter 109

Marie laughed, “That’s true, I don’t have any sisters, otherwise I wouldn’t have almost gotten Carly into

jail.”

Olive glared at her, thinking that if it weren’t for Marie, her beloved younger sister who was always

pampered at home, why would she have moved so far away?

During the weekdays, the pampered Carly was taken to the police station and detained for a day, which

left her terrified when she came out.

After losing Carly and Dereon, Olive Entertainment’s situation continued to worsen. Even Noel told

her that there wouldn’t be any improvement in Olive Entertainment before the end of the year, and they

could only wait and see what would happen next year.

And all of this was because of Marie!

Nataly frowned at Marie and said, “Ms. Spence, your words are too harsh. How could you brag about

such a scandal happening in your family?”

Marie turned to her and asked, “Ms. Carmen, since when did you become so concerned about the

Spence family?”

Olive pulled Nataly aside and said, “Nataly, don’t lower yourself to this person’s level and degrade

your status!”

After the sales assistant brought the coat, Olive, ignoring Marie’s gaze, grabbed the coat and examined

it for a while. Then she turned to Nataly and asked, “What do you think? This one’s not

bad, right?”

Nataly nodded, looking understanding, “Yeah, it’s pretty good!”

The sales assistant immediately said, “This coat is our limited edition for the end of the year, with very

exquisite craftsmanship, so the price will be a bit higher.”

Marie was taken aback, “Limited edition? Is it sold out?”

The sales assistant apologized with a smile, “Miss, I’m sorry, but this black one is the last piece. There

is a red one here, though.’

The sales assistant came out holding a coat. It was actually a dark red coat, but still had a red hue.

Marie thought, Dennis’ suits were almost always black, would he wear red if she bought it for him?

Nataly looked at the red one and smiled, saying, “The black one looks better, let’s take the black

one.”

Olive glanced disdainfully at Marie and said, “Don’t spend all your money on a piece of clothing again;

the Spence family can’t afford to lose face because of you.”

After speaking, she grabbed Nataly and left.

Get Bo

Marie felt somewhat regretful, as she originally thought that the black coat would be perfect for

Dennis!

Iliana frowned and said, “Olive doesn’t have a boyfriend, so why is she buying a men’s coat?”

Marie was somewhat annoyed, “Who knows? They just wanted to make life difficult for me!”

Iliana noticed her bad mood, walked over and took a closer look at the dark red coat, and said,

“Marie, this one is actually not bad either. It has the same style as the one we just saw, just a

different color.”

The sales assistant also said, “Yes, indeed, and since men tend to wear black more often, it’s easy to

be dressed alike with others. This dark red one would be more distinctive!”

Marie knew that red was okay, but the question was, would Dennis wear it?

Iliana pulled her aside and said, “Trust me, even if you bought a sack, Mr. Whitney would still wear

it!”

Marie remained silent.

Alright, in the end, Marie paid for the dark red coat, planning to give it to Dennis later. If he didn’t

wear it, she would take it back home for Luca. It couldn’t be wasted, as the coat cost over 15,000

dollars, which was very expensive!

Olive had just walked out of the mall when she handed the coat to Nataly, smiling and saying, “Take it

quickly, I know you like this one. Give it to your Mr. Whitney.”

Nataly’s face turned red and she said, “Don’t talk nonsense, what do you mean by ‘mine?”

Olive teased her, “Nonsense? You and Mr. Whitney grew up as childhood sweethearts. Were there any

other girls around Mr. Whitney besides you? When you become Mrs. Whitney, don’t forget to invite me

to the wedding ceremony!”

Nataly laughed shyly, yet clenched her fists tightly.

Everyone thought that she and Dennis were childhood sweethearts, and she was the top choice to be

Dennis’ future wife.

But no one knew that the person Dennis cherished in his hands was the seemingly worthless Marie!

A little girl had Dennis head over heels, so much so that he even kept Marie’s existence a secret from

everyone to protect her all this time.

However,

this was also good, as aside from Dennis’ few brothers, no one knew about Marie and

Dennis’ situation.

Git Bonos

So, she used the identity of childhood sweethearts to let others mistakenly believe that she was

Dennis’ beloved without any guilt.

Olive believed that others would believe too, and sooner or later, she would become Dennis’ wife!

Olive nudged her, “Nataly, what are you thinking about?”

Nataly snapped out of it, smiled, and said, “It’s nothing, what’s up?” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Olive sighed and said, “Recently, my studio has been lacking a fashion stylist. I heard that you studied

fashion design abroad, so I came to ask for your help.”

Nataly was taken aback and shyly smiled, “Me? I do have quite a few finished designs. If you don’t

mind, you can go ahead and try them on.”

“Not at all! Why would I mind? Wearing your design on the red carpet will definitely make me stand

out! By then, everyone will know about you, the excellent designer!” Olive said.

The reason Olive approached Nataly, apart from Nataly’s relationship with Dennis, was that Nataly had

studied fashion design abroad and won several awards. She was in urgent need of an outstanding

fashion designer.

The two people settled the matter, Olive went home satisfied, while Nataly went to Dennis’ Glorious

Estate.

The doorbell rang, and Dennis thought it was Marie returning. He stood up to open the door, and upon

seeing Nataly, he furrowed his brow and asked, “What brings you here?”

Nataly was hurt by his cold gaze and, lowering her head, said, “I’m sorry… Did I bother you?”

Dennis, feeling helpless, said, “Come in.”

Nataly hesitated in the hallway, as there was clearly a pair of pink women’s slippers in the shoe

cabinet. Was there another woman living in Dennis’ house?

She walked into the living room, sat down on the couch, and Dennis, with his head down, continued

typing on his computer, not paying her any attention.

Nataly felt a bit awkward, as she knew Dennis had a condominium here, but she had never been to it

before. Today was her first time visiting, and she was quite curious.
