The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 173 A Grand Gift for Them at the Engagement Banquet Part 1

On August 3rd, at 2:00 pm at the Dithoria Four Seasons Hotel, Marcus and Natalie arrived on time for the event.

Grace was elegantly dressed in a dark green dress with her hair styled in a neat bun and adorned with pearl earrings. She had applied makeup suitable for her age. Victor and Diana were by her side, welcoming the guests as they entered the engagement banquet hall.

Natalie exuded elegance in her white, figure-hugging, cocktail dress and light-colored heels. Her naturally curly hair was carefully styled and cascaded over her shoulders.

She had a subtle, nude makeup look that enhanced her already flawless complexion. Her almond-shaped eyes were adorned with long, thick lashes that fluttered when she glanced at people, giving off a sense of gentle warmth.

Despite standing next to the incredibly handsome Marcus, Natalie wasn't overshadowed. With her delicate features, refined facial structure, and slim physique, they made a visually stunning couple-he with his good looks and she with her beauty.

Everywhere they went, they turned heads and captured attention.

As Natalie and Marcus stood nearby, Selena and Tyler paled in comparison. Natalie's hand rested gently on Marcus's arm, exuding elegance and grace.

When Selena caught sight of them, it was impossible to hide the jealousy and malice in her eyes. Even Tyler was taken aback. He had never seen Natalie so impeccably dressed before. She outshone any female celebrity he had ever laid eyes on.

In the past, Natalie always wore a simple black windbreaker and sportswear, with her hair tied up in a casual bun. She rarely wore makeup and often donned thick-rimmed black glasses.

Tyler had never seen her in anything other than her usual attire. But here she was, breaking off their
