"Mr. Whitlock, your granddaughter-in-law is beautiful. I bet her dancing is wonderful as well. Since Yuna's about the sage as her, why not have them dance together?" Ruby suggested.
After Yuna's reminder, Ruby had cback to her senses. Natalie had only changed her appearance with the help of an excellent stylist.
That didn't mean that she could change her true self.
Ruby was confident that a girl like Natalie, who cfrom such a family background, surely had no chance to learn how to dance.
Hence, she proposed for Natalie and Yuna to dance together, so that Natalie would definitely make a fool of herself, and at the stallow Yuna to shine.
Hearing Ruby's suggestion, everyone concurred and said, "That's right, let's have them do a dance to liven things up." These people were thinking that allowing Natalie to dance would please Mr. Whitlock.
After all, no one would have thought that Natalie, who had such an ethereal temperament, would cfrom an average family background, completely unlike the socialites who had learned these things since young.
They all thought that Natalie's dancing must be excellent. Suggesting for Natalie to dance would allow Natalie to be in the limelight, bringing honour to Peter.
Hence, these people called out even more excitedly.
Peter seemed conflicted.
He subconsciously felt that Natalie wouldn't know how to dance at all. After all, she fainted all the time, so she probably couldn't even hold herself steady. However, Peter didn't feel at ease to reject the crowd's suggestion. Meanwhile, Ruby pushed her way up to Natalie and said, "Miss Godfrey, why don't you do a waltz with Yuna as a gift for Mr. Whitlock?" Natalie was stunned.
The smugness in Ruby's eyes deepened.
She was sure that Natalie didn't know how to dance.
If she refused to step forward now, it would embarrass Peter.
If she agreed to step up, then she would embarrass herself.
No matter what happened, Natalie was in between a rock and a hard place! Ruby was waiting for Natalie to make a fool of herself, and Yuna couldn't stop herself from smiling maliciously.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHer thoughts were the sas her mother's. She was waiting for Natalie to humiliate herself.
At the thought of Natalie making a fool of herself in front of so many people soon, Yuna felt extremely happy. She could finally get payback for her humiliation.
Under the hubbub of all the people, Natalie looked at Tobias uneasily.
Tobias gave Natalie a reassuring look.
Natalie's heart instantly calmed down.
"Very well, I'll dance with Miss Sherman to celebrate Mr. Whitlock's birthday." When Natalie had already walked onto the stage, Peter asked Cecilia in a small voice, "Cecilia, does she know how to dance?" His tone was full of disbelief.
Cecilia did not know how to reply.
She wasn't really sure either.
Peter huffed. "She shouldn't have gone up there to make a fool out of herself if she doesn't know how to dance. She'd better not fall in front of everybody!" A hint of worry flashed across Cecilia's eyes.
Natalie and Yuna stepped onto the stage.
The music started, and the lights dimmed until only one light was left shining down on Natalie and Yuna.
The eyes of the audience were focused on these two people. Search the (Find) website on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
Ruby's lips curled up mockingly.
Natalie was nothing more than a cheap, lowbrow country bumpkin. She'd definitely be outshone by Yuna. Perhaps she'd even fall down and humiliate herself, turning herself into the laughingstock of the upper class society.
Peter wouldn't be able to accept such an embarrassing granddaughter-in-law, and he'd definitely make Tobias marry Yuna.
The conceit in Ruby's eyes grew stronger, as if her fantasies would play out right in front of her eyes.
On the stage, Natalie and Yuna began to dance.
It was just a slow tune at the beginning, and Natalie was completely able to handle it.
However, the tune gradually becmore rapid and intense.
Yuna deliberately quickened her pace.
She wanted to make it so that Natalie couldn't keep up with her and fall.
Sure enough, Natalie was not prepared and stumbled, almost falling.
A scheming look flashed across Yuna's eyes.
Ruby almost laughed out loud offstage.
Natalie truly was a country bumpkin. Yuna had only stepped up the pace a little, but she already couldn't keep up.
Ruby knew that this was only the first step. She couldn't wait for Natalie's humiliation! On the other side, Peter also frowned.
He had seen Natalie almost falling down.
A trace of worry flashed through Peter's heart.
Would Natalie really fall down on the stage? Then the Whitlock family would be totally humiliated.
If he had known this earlier, he would not have let Natalie go on stage.
Selina and Cecilia also looked at Natalie nervously, for fear that something would happen to her.
There were so many people watching them, either nervously or waiting to see someone make a fool of themselves. Tobias was the only one watching Natalie gently, his lips turned upwards in a smile. His eyes were completely focused on Natalie, and he could only see her.
It was as if Natalie was the only person existent in this hall full of people.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMeanwhile, on the stage, the music got faster and faster, and Natalie's heart pounded with it.
Yuna's dance steps beceven faster.
She watched Natalie closely, waiting for Natalie to fall and make a fool of herself.
Natalie really couldn't keep up.
Over the past few days, Tobias had hired a top dance teacher to teach her.
She knew that there'd be a stage set up during the celebration for everybody to dance.
Natalie had learned how to dance a little during her university days, but it was half-baked, and she probably En would've embarrassed herself. She wouldn't have bothered if she was still the old her.
Knowing how to dance wasn't that important to her after all. But Hayden's words had made her feel that she had to becher feel more outstanding. Hence, she'd specially asked Tobias to get someone to teach her to dance. However, even though Tobias had gotten her the best teacher, she had only been learning for a few days. Originally, it wasn't a problem for her to be on stage. But now, Yuna's dancing pace was growing quicker, and she really couldn't keep up.
Natalie took a deep breath to calm herself.
Yuna seemed to be constantly observing Natalie's expression. When she saw Natalie inhaling, her dance steps accelerated again.
Natalie was caught off guard again, and she stumbled a little. Luckily, she managed to steady herself and didn't fall.
Yuna looked pleased with herself.
Natalie's eyelashes fluttered.
She felt that she really couldn't keep up.
The music grew faster, and so did Yuna's steps. Natalie mustered all her strength but still struggled to keep up the pace.
