From Divorce To Dominance (Natalie Xavier)

Chapter 67

Natalie looked up at Tessa with an unruffled expression, "Do you really want me to bring out the evidence?" Her question was calm, but it made Tessa's heart s**p a beat. Tessa thought, 'Could she really have evidence? No. Impossible. It couldn't be. The surveillance footage from that day has already been dealt with Apart from me and Mandy, no one else will know what I did! Natalie is just trying to bluff. Tessa steadied her nerves and retorted I confidently, "If you have proof, then show it." Vivian frowned, "Ms. Xavier, if you really have evidence, please present it to prove the sheet music is yours."

"I will present it, Natalie said calmly, "but not now."

"Huh?" Tessa hadn't even spoken when Chloe burst out laughing sarcastically, "Natalie, enough! If you have the evidence, show it now. If not, you'd better apologize to Tessa! Also, you can't use this piece for tomorrow's performance." "Why?" E Emily fumed angrily. "Can you prove the sheet music is yours?" Tessa confidently said, "The mentors can prove it."

Emily pressed her lips together and glared at them fiercely, her eyes red with anger.

Seeing that Natalie didn't speak, Tessa took

another jab at her, "Natalie, didn't you say you had evidence? Show it to prove your innocence then."

She hated Natalie to the core. Natalie had stolen her spotlight and the attention and honors that should have belonged to her. A lowlife who got into bed with older men, Natalie should rot in the gutter where she belonged. How dare Natalie challenge her? Natalie glanced at her face. "Tomorrow. If you don't want a bad end, you'd better not use someone else's thing in tomorrow's performance."

They had been in a standoff for so long, and Natalie simply refused to present any evidence. Tessa was now convinced that she didn't have any so-called evidence and it was all just a bluff. Tessa sneered, "Do you think I'm scared of you? I didn't do what you accuse me of Whoever stole someone else's thing knows in their heart."

"You!" Tessa bit her lip hard and stomped her foot, looking at Vivian. "Ms. Zavala, now do you plan to handle this?" Vivian hated Natalie. The worse Natalie did, the happier she was, but she still had to maintain her persona.

Seeing that both sides were sticking to their stories and wouldn't budge, she didn't want to get herself involved.

She shook her head in disappointment. "I will talk to Director Pierce about this matter and make sure it's thoroughly investigated. For now, let's continue our rehearsal."
