Word had it that after the humiliation at the auction, Cade had returned to the Turner family only to face a harsh
punishment from Edgar.
After that move to set an example, everyone in the Turner family, whether they were truly scared or just
pretending, had been keeping their heads down lately.
Natasha was able to focus on training Michelle.
The apartment management told Natasha that someone from the Clark family had cby ooking for her.
They waited for a while, but since she didn’t show up, they eventually left.
Natasha couldn't care less.
Only after severing ties did she realize just how wide and free the world could be.
While everything was going smoothly for Natasha, Olivia was quite anxious.
Because of her last injury and hospital stay, she missed a ton of training and lost her chance it the dance
performance she'd spent half a year preparing for.
Her lead role was snatched away by the understudy, Naomi Osborne.
What made her even more furious was that, out of nowhere, someone had poured a lot of noney into the dance
troupe, clearly trying to push Naomi into the spotlight.
Naomi was incredibly talented. The only reason Olivia had managed to keep her down before was that Naomi
cfrom an ordinary background and was bound by her contract.
Olivia had the wealthy Clark family backing her, bringing all kinds of resources to the
troupe.
Naomi was nothing like Alice Nelson, who would sell out Natasha for money and toss away her bright future
without a second thought,
Naomi was truly gifted and full of ideas. She was the kind of person who could skyrocket to success the moment
she got the chance.
Every tOlivia looked at her, she felt a strange sense of déja vu, as if she was seeing Natasha from those
days.
She was dazzling and impossible to ignore on stage.

Geniuses always had something in common, but if a genius couldn't grow, there would be no point.
Watching Naomi, drenched in sweat and laughing with her friends after training, Olivia's eyes flashed with a cold,
predatory glint.
No matter what it took, Olivia wanted to get the lead role in that new dance choreographed by an
international master.
But it all hinged on her solo performance. She had to shine and blow everyone away.
Olivia was pulling out all the stops for this performance, aiming for perfection in every
aspect.
The Clark family was giving her their full support, pouring resources into promotions and building up the buzz.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOlivia even shelled out a fortune to hire a top dance choreographer, but she still felt like something was missing.
It wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t enough to leave a lasting impression.
What Olivia wanted was so much more than just that.
Worried about her upcoming performance, Olivia couldn’t care less about getting closer to Lucas these days.
After all, Lucas had been moping around ever since Natasha slapped him in front of
everyone.
Olivia didn’t want to see him looking so down, so she just focused on herself instead.
Feeling down, Olivia chatted briefly with Naomi before leaving the dance troupe and heading straight to her
favorite massage place in the mall.
But just as she was about to walk in, a girl dancing behind a glass wall caught her attention.
Inside the empty dance studio, a young, beautiful girl was moving to the music by herself, dressed in simple,
obviously inexpensive practice clothes.
Every spin, every look back was breathtaking, making it impossible to tear your eyes away,
Almost at first glance, Olivia told herself that this was what she had been searching for.

She stood quietly outside the glass wall, waiting for the song to finish.
The closer it got to the end, the hotter her gaze burned.

Finally, when the girl was exhausted and sat down on the floor to drink swater, Olivia made her way inside
and pushed open the door.
“Who are you?” The girl looked up, a little lost and naive. She was clearly young and hadn’t seen much of the
world.
“Sorry, | was just outside and saw you dancing. It looked really beautiful. Did you choreograph it?” Olivia asked.
The girl nodded excitedly, her eyes sparkling. “Yep! | spent ages working on it.
“You saw the whole thing? This is my first tperforming the finished dance. You're my very first audience!”
She looked just like a little bunny, proud and waiting for someone to praise her.
Olivia's smile grew even warmer. “You've got real talent,” she said, genuinely impressed.
Olivia scanned the girl's face and outfit, then asked offhandedly, “Is it just you here?”
The girl replied with a shy smile, “Yeah, business isn’t great at the studio, so I'm usually the only one here at this
hour.
“Plus, it's cheaper during off-hours when there aren't many people around.”
Olivia patiently humored the innocent, clueless girl for a while, then finally smiled at her. “Have you ever thought
about selling your choreography?”
“You mean let someone else dance it? But what about the ownership of the choreography...” the girl hesitated.
Olivia simply smiled, saying nothing.
The girl fell silent, clearly thinking it over.
Olivia wasn’t in any hurry to push her. She understood all too well how people struggling to get by would think.
The price she was offering could tempt anyone.
For a girl from an ordinary family, reality always hit a lot harder than dreams ever could.
But just when Olivia thought it was a done deal, the girl shot her down without hesitation.

The girl shook her head. “My family isn’t wealthy, but we're not short on money either. | put a lot of effort into
this dance and only just finished it a couple of days ago.
“I want to be the first one to perform it, and | don’t want to hand over the credit for my work to someone else.
“Thank you for your offer, but | have to refuse.”
Olivia's smile froze on her face.
“Are you sure? It's just a dance, you know. You can always make another one,” Olivia said, trying to sound casual.
The girl's voice was unwavering. “A good piece isn’t something you can just make again. This one is really
important to me.”
Olivia's gaze grew frosty.
“You're sure about that?” Olivia asked, her tone cool.
“I'm sure,” the girl said firmly.
“Alright, sorry to bother you,” Olivia

She was quite nervous while dancing. She was scared to death she'd blow it.

at the villa anymore.”
Michelle grinned mischievously. “So, about that reward Alexei promised me..
I'll talk to him when he gets back,” Natasha said.
“Thanks!” Michelle replied.

She'd been such an idiot before, crushing on someone for years and didn’t get a damn thing
out of it.
Alexei didn’t even remember her name, and she almost got herself into real trouble.
But now, just by running a few errands and playing along, a big oppurtunity just fell right into her lap.
It turned out ustling for her own success was way more satisfying.
“Natasha, if you needfor anything else, just letknow. I'll give it my all!” Michelle said, her voice full of
enthusiasm.
Natasha laughed. “Relax, there'll be plenty of chances for you to show what you've got.
“Olivia will probably try to delete the security footage from the dance stutoday. Let her.”
“Don’t worry, the stubelongs to my bestie. I've already set everything up,” Michelle replied with a grin.
Natasha said, “Good. Don’t go back to your family for the next few days. Just stay where I've
set you up.
“Alexei will also have someone keep an eye on you. Don’t be scared. If anything happens, callright away.”
“I'm not worried at all,” Michelle chuckled, “But Natasha, she walked away so quickly. How did you know she'd
take the bait?”
Natasha's voice turned distant and thoughtful. “Because she has done this before.”
She thought, ‘Someone who's greedy, insecure, and arrogant can never really change who they are:
