Chapter 671 Robbed
The woman on stage may not be what society deemed as beautiful.
However, everyone was captivated by her performance. It was as if they were dragged back in time and
they all resonated with the woman’s frustration.
No one applauded, but it was not because Natalie performed poorly.
Conversely, they were touched by such delicate singing, and they feared disrupting its lingering beauty.
After giving a bow, Natalie left the stage without a word.
Just then, everyone snapped back to reality and started clapping, their applause unending.
Jacqueline was in utter disbelief. She had not expected Natalie to be so talented at singing. She initially
thought that the woman would perform awfully. Natalie is supposed to be inferior to me!
Reality had given Jacqueline a huge slap across her face.
Natalie definitely had a foundation in singing. She did not deliberately show off her skills, but they were

the audience seemed to indulge in her performance without even realizing it.
On the flipside, Jacqueline’s performance involved a multitude of complex techniques that turned out to
be too overwhelming. Comparatively, Natalie’s classical song sounded better.
Soon, Natalie and Jacqueline bumped into each other again.
Natalie let out a grin when she noticed the indignation on Jacqueline’s face.
“You… You did this on purpose!” Jacqueline clutched at the corner of her skirt forcefully as she spat,
“You know how to sing!”
“Since when did I tell you that I couldn’t?”
“You—”
“You were the one who thought that I could not sing the whole time.” A glint flashed across Natalie’s eyes
as she said coldly, “So Ms. Lancester, please don’t act as if I deceived you.”
In truth, Natalie did not go into this performance with the intention of humiliating Jacqueline.
She had chosen the song without much thought or prior preparation. Even the attire that she wore was
not compatible with the theme of the song.
However, because of her nonchalant attitude, Jacqueline was even more agitated. “Why didn’t you tell
me earlier when I was provoking you? You make me look like a clown! I bet you’re gloating at my misery,
aren’t you?”
“Even if I told you, would you have believed me?” Natalie chuckled.
“I…”
“You won’t,” Natalie concluded. “You would have thought that I was just being stubborn. Truth be told,
everything was impromptu and I didn’t prepare beforehand. But you’ll think that I’m saying this to
humiliate you anyway, right?”
Natalie’s statement was indeed in line with Jacqueline’s thoughts.
“Natalie Nichols, you—”

“Since that’s what you think, there’s no need for me to explain further.” Natalie sneered. “Besides, I don’t
care what you think about me. You still have a long way to go if you really want to go against me.”
With that, Natalie turned around swiftly and left.
Looking at Natalie’s departing figure, the unwillingness to concede defeat surged within Jacqueline.
However, she could not deny that Natalie was far superior to her.
She was so consumed by the thought of being in the spotlight that she forgot to assess her own
capabilities. As a consequence, her judgment was clouded by jealousy. It was merely a talent show at a
charity dinner, but she had treated it as a competition that she could not afford to lose.
Jacqueline cried, but the fault could not be attributed to Natalie.
When Natalie returned to the event hall, Diane approached her and embraced her in excitement.
“Lady Diane…” Natalie was shocked by Diane’s enthusiasm.
Diane, however, did not bother to hide her fondness. “You’re such a gem, Natalie! Since you can’t be my
daughter-in-law, why don’t you become my goddaughter?”
Natalie shook her head. “I’m afraid I can’t. I already have my own godparents.”
“What?” Diane was disappointed. “I’m being robbed of this as well?”
