Chapter 10: Meeting Justin Harper

The next morning, after breakfast, Noah handed over all the information about Natalie to Justin. Justin went through the tablet, carefully reading each and every detail to know Natalie better before their meeting.

Natalie Ford, the eldest daughter of the Ford family. Her mother died in an accident when Natalie was seven. Her father, Jay Ford, brought his mistress Clara home, along with her daughter Briena, who was a few months younger than Natalie. After her mother's death, Natalie became a troublemaker in the family and hated her stepmother and half-sister. During her first year of university, she was accused of plagiarism during a perfume creation competition, said to have stolen her half-sister Briena's work, and was expelled from the school. She made several attempts to harm Briena, and was often punished by the family.

In the same year, Natalie tried to harm Briena by causing an accident just before an important piano competition, almost costing Briena's career as a pianist. To punish her, the family sent seventeen year old Natalie away to a far-off place, Zyros City, a place nothing but living hell, filled with dangers. The Ford family did not provide her with any monetary support, leaving her to fend for herself, more likely leaving her to die there.

"Where is the information about her five years in Zyros?" Justin asked, curious about how she survived there.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Harper. Even with our best sources, we couldn't obtain any information on Ms. Ford's life there. Xyros City is ruled by mafias, and it's difficult for outsiders to infiltrate it to get any information," Noah said, looking regretful for failing this task.

Justin read further. Natalie returned home two years ago and started working with Ivan Brown in his company. Given her dynamics with the family, he understood why she didn't work in her own family's company.

He was quite surprised to read about Natalie's achievements at such a young age, as she single-handedly took care of the R&D department as a director and even created the best-selling perfumes for the company, which saved it from bankruptcy.

"She seems to be quite talented," Justin mumbled.
