From Divorce To Dominance

As soon as Natalie finished speaking, the comment section went wild.

[Is she serious?]

[What's her deal?]

[Ms. Xavier? Who does she think she is, talking back to Vivian like that?]

[I was digging her look, but now she's just coming off rude. Unfollow!] [Curious question, am I the only one finding her attitude kinda adorable?]

The negativity rolled in, but on the set of the show, Vivian suddenly clapped a hand over her mouth, her eyes twinkling as she regarded Natalie. "Oh my gosh, guys! This woman's got guts, and I love it. Great going, Ms. Xavier! You've earned my attention!"

Vivian's climb to stardom wasn't just because Darren bankrolled her; she had the chops too. She was a people person, quick-witted, and had a knack for comedy, making her a hit on variety shows. With her at the helm, even the trickiest situations felt smooth The Sweet Love director had second thoughts about Vivian's high price tag, but after witnessing their on-screen chemistry, he knew it was money well spent.

Viewers and online fans showered Vivian's reaction with praise.

[Of course, my queen Vivian is the best! Look at how she stays cool and clever-no wonder she's a star! Unlike some people! Bye!]

[That's the gap in emotional IQ; one's on top of Everest, the other's at the bottom of the Marianas Trench!]

[You guys are slaying! I'm officially a die-hard fan of Vivian!]

[Natalie's EQ is way low; what's she even doing on this show?]

The camera honed in on Natalie, ready to capture her authentic response. To everyone's shock, she grinned slyly and said, "Thanks for the love! So, how about you ditch Mr. Luther and join me?" [WTF!]

[What nerve!]

[Is she trying to steal the billionaire's girl?]

[Natalie's retort is epic!]

[She's got some sass! How does she pull off being charming while saying words like that?]

Truth be told, Vivian hadn't anticipated Natalie's quick comeback. She gaped for a moment, "Uh... um..."

"Quick, quick, quick!" The director barked from behind the scenes, "Get Mr. Luther and Natalie in the same frame!"Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

Seconds later, the big screen displayed their faces, and the sudden double dose of attractiveness left everyone breathless.

The atmosphere crackled as the screen showcased two striking figures: Darren, with his chiseled features and piercing gaze, and next to him, the radiant Natalie. Her playful smile highlighted her cute dimples. Her beautiful eyes shone, seeming ready to dive into the game of love.

Suddenly, with bated breath, she slowly reached her right hand toward Darren's seat. Just as the crowd thought she was going to touch him, she arched an eyebrow and boldly flipped him off.

Darren's face darkened, like a tempest about to unleash. He cursed in his mind, 'This sly woman! She claims she is over me, but here she is, clearly trying to provoke Vivian. Who does she think she is, openly defying me like that? Does she really think she can switch up her tactics and grab my interest? She lied! She is clearly gunning for me.'

He needed to teach her a lesson. After a swift chat with Vivian, Darren stepped out to make a call.

Meanwhile, the comment section was abuzz with excitement.

[Ahhh! She's challenging Mr. Luther! What a bold move!]

[Don't blink! She's fiercer than most.]

[Xavier, the queen of the fierce!]

[OMG, she's fearless.]

Vivian knew she had to act fast or risk losing the limelight. Clearing her throat, she chimed in, "Oh no! What if Mr. Luther gets so mad he decides to break my legs tonight?"

Laughter erupted, warming the room.

Grabbing the moment, Vivian took control again. "Alright, Ms. Xavier, you're quite the entertainer, and I appreciate that. But we've got a show to do. Before Ms. Xavier shares her thoughts, I'd like to ask her a few questions for our viewers."

Natalie lounged back casually, arms crossed, exuding an effortless confidence. Dressed in a sleek black dress that hugged her curves, she had a vibe that was hard to ignore. With her chin up, she looked like a modern queen-assertive, charming, and captivating. "Are the vineyard and farm in your videos really yours?" Vivian asked.

"Not explaining," Natalie replied with a smirk. "Next question."

Vivian couldn't hide her amusement. "Well, some viewers are curious why you've kept out of the spotlight until now. Care to share?"

"Nope." Natalie refused directly.

Vivian was left without words, recognizing Natalie's desire to craft an image of strength and independence. Yet, Natalie avoided questions altogether; Vivian felt a loss of dignity. With a shift in tactics, Vivian attempted a more playful tone, urging, "Oh, do share! There's an eager audience waiting to listen

"My face isn't something. I'll show up when I please," Natalie said nonchalantly.

Vivian pressed on. "Are you here just to get famous?"

"Nope," Natalie shot back. "I'm here to prove the haters wrong."

Vivian was taken aback but quickly regained her composure. Natalie's words could backfire.

Thinking Natalie would not go far with her temper, Vivian stopped cottoning up to Natalie and went straight to the point. "Okay, Ms. Xavier, your confidence is noted. Now, let's get to your self-assessment. You'll be rated from S to F. Where do you place yourself?" Right after Vivian could finish, Natalie stood, strolled over to the couch, and settled in like she owned the joint.

With a nervous chuckle, Vivian continued, "So, Ms. Xavier, you rate yourself an S. You're the first to do that. That's a bold

statement. Keep it up irthe performances."

Natalie just nodded.

[Is she really that good?]

[Does she deserve an S? What's her angle?]

[I googled her, nothing comes up.]

[Is that a GirlLove necklace? I have one too, but in a different color.]

[Wow, so she is wearing a fake?]
