Bye-bye Trash! Hello Queen! novel Chapter 106

A proud smile spread across Mr. Sanders Sr.’s face. “See? I didn't raise you kids for nothing. Every one of you is a business prodigy. You’re all doing so well, but I still haven’t found a new love. Anyway, I’m off to bed. I’ve got to find my soulmate at the morning dance group at the park tomorrow.”

Wayne just shook his head and smiled. His grandfather had been saying that for years and was still single. What a character.

He stood up and looked out at the deep darkness of the night. He knew that Natalie truly didn't love Sebastian anymore. But she had loved him for her entire youth. Could she really let him go completely this time?

Anyone but Sebastian. Not that ruthless, cold-hearted man. He was born in darkness; he could never bring anyone light.

...

After a hot shower, Natalie looked around her familiar, luxurious room and smiled softly. The feeling of being alive, truly alive, washed over her again.

She lay down on the large bed, staring up at the ceiling for a while before sitting up and texting Queena.

[Queena, are you coming back tomorrow?]

Queena replied quickly: [Not tomorrow, Nat. I’m swamped with something. Just landed a huge project.]

Natalie smiled as she typed: [Got it. Stay safe.]

Queena: [I will. You too.]

Natalie set her phone down, pulled the covers over herself, and closed her eyes.

She slept soundly, without a single dream.

Natalie could see it. “Looks like you’ve been working too hard lately. Now that I’m back, I can help share the load.”

Keith met her smiling eyes and teased, “So, you’re really not going back to the Griffith family? Decided to focus on your career for good?” He hoped she had finally seen that Sebastian was no good for her.

Natalie’s smile was radiant. “Yep, not going back. Come on, let’s go meet Mr. Monroe.”

As they walked in, they spotted Joanna and her good friend, Yvonne Smith, who was also engaged to Jerome Scott.

Joanna and Yvonne saw Natalie at the same time. Joanna strolled over, a mocking smile on her face. Her eyes swept over the handsome and gentle Keith standing beside Natalie, and a flash of jealousy crossed her face. Natalie always seemed to have men flocking to her.

“Well, well, Natalie,” Joanna sneered. “Yesterday it was Marshall Spencer. Who’s this one today?”
