Natalie Vaughn wanted to laugh but was trying hard to hold it in.
But it was rare for Zane Thorne to be so considerate; after getting a call from Theo Langdon and hearing about the situation, he imdiately ca back and even did sothing unprecedented by posting on social dia to show off their relationship.
She couldn’t hold back at all.
So, Natalie burst into laughter, shaking with mirth.
You see, even a golden boy like Zane has to make soup for her and show off their love.
How could she not be proud, not be happy?
Natalie even straightened up and planted a kiss on Zane’s face.
Sweet and coquettish.
"You’re so good, hubby."
Zane: ...
Won are such changeable creatures.
Natalie, especially, is quite changeable.
Just a mont ago, she was angry, and now she’s calling him hubby.
Zane raised his eyebrows, understanding one thing.
It turns out that simply showing off their love can make this little girl so happy. It seems like a good approach.
Natalie would never have thought that her emotions, which are so changeable only in front of Zane, would lead him to develop a habit of flaunting their relationship.
For a very, very long ti afterward, everyone in their circle was subjected to Zane’s overdose of affection.
No one could understand how soone so wild and unrestrained could beco whipped by his wife.
In no ti, Natalie’s reputation in the circle changed from a demure princess to a queen of husband-taming.
Of course, that’s a story for another ti.
Feeling cheerful, Natalie no longer dwelled on her inability to beat Zane. Like a kitten, she snuggled up to Zane and then whispered in his ear.
"I don’t like it when the girl is 1 and the guy is 0; I like it when the guy is 1 and the girl is 0."
She’s strong but admires strength as well.
She likes the feeling of being in control, so she appreciates those who can effortlessly manage any situation.
Only such people can make her willingly love and admire them.
Hearing this, Zane abruptly lowered his head, capturing Natalie’s gaze.
When Natalie and Theo sparred, Natalie was the winner.
In a face-off between Zane and Natalie, undoubtedly, Zane would be the winner.
So...
Doesn’t that sentence an she’s saying she likes Zane?
Zane clearly realized this, and his already deep eyes beca even darker, filled with an underlying fire.
"Is this a confession?"
Natalie’s eyes glimred, her eyelashes fluttered, and she retreated playfully yet proudly.
"You’re so full of yourself."
Seeing her reaction, Zane knew he couldn’t get a direct answer from Natalie.
But it didn’t matter.
To him, this was Natalie’s way of confessing her feelings.
...
While Natalie was packing up to join the crew, the couple finally discussed the living arrangents.
"I’ll be filming in Veridia for two months; you can live wherever you want."
Veridia is only about an hour’s flight from Astra City.
Zane raised his eyebrows.
"So you’ll co back and live with ?"
Natalie rolled her eyes.
"You’re dreaming. I’m definitely coming back here."
The man frowned displeasedly.
"Natalie, we’re married."
Having heard that Veridia’s landscapes are extrely beautiful, Natalie placed a dress into her suitcase.
"So what?"
"You should co with ."
Natalie chuckled.
"Why don’t you co with ? Besides, they say ’a wife follows her husband.’ Are you the husband or the dog?"
Zane: ...
Such a sharp tongue.
However, Zane only thought the two should live together, and who follows whom didn’t make a difference. He knew that this proud little lady of his cared deeply about these things.
"Your place doesn’t have enough yet, so let soone get it furnished and then move over; you can stay at my place for now, or at Lantheon."
Lantheon was the residence prepared by the Thorne Family for the couple as a wedding ho.
The apartnt was newly moved into and indeed lacked many things, including the studio Natalie wanted which hadn’t been set up.
"Stay at your apartnt?"
She wanted to see what the place Zane lived in looked like.
She wanted to step into his domain and leave her mark in every corner.
Zane had long anticipated Natalie’s choice.
"Let’s head to my place tonight."
Natalie paused.
"So soon?"
"Yeah, I want to show you sothing."
What needed to be seen back at his place?
Natalie imdiately agreed.
Thus, the two swiftly moved from Natalie’s Rivermark Apartnts to Zane’s residence.
Natalie then realized it wasn’t just any apartnt but an entire solitary villa.
No, it should be said it was Zane’s exclusive secret base.
Seeing the car slowly drive through the custom-designed driveway, Natalie’s blood started to surge with excitent.
The entrance driveway sloped about thirty degrees with the ground, and as they entered, the lights on the second floor of the villa instantly turned on, and the automatic door slowly rose, welcoming its owner.
The entire floor, with glass walls, was filled with various modified sports cars.
Even Natalie, upon seeing such a scene, was sowhat stunned.
Undoubtedly, this place must have been carefully crafted by Zane, not to ntion the special build of the villa; a whole floor of those sports cars was worth billions.
Natalie couldn’t help but swallow.
Her husband was this rich?
"Your dad is really generous to you."
All the houses and cars bought by her dad and brother together couldn’t compare to these.
The car parked steadily on the second floor, and Natalie imdiately unbuckled her seatbelt and got out of the car, only to find it was even more impressive from the inside.
In addition to sports cars, there were various types of high-end motorcycles too, and if she wasn’t mistaken, there was even a Neiman Marcus Limited Edition Fighter valued at 350 million among them.
But that wasn’t the most shocking part.
In the center was an open design, with no staircase, just a pole for sliding down.
Below was a workspace for car modifications with all kinds of equipnt.
A Bugatti race car, recently launched as a team collaboration, sat gracefully on the platform.
Each footstep was distinctly heard in this space, and as Natalie felt Zane approaching, she didn’t bother to hide her astonishnt.
"Did you modify all of these?"
Zane stood with his hands in his pockets, looking down at the workspace below.
"Except the ones with high collection value, the rest were remodeled by ."
In other words, sports cars that might originally be worth millions had their value doubled, thanks to Zane’s modifications.
Natalie didn’t know what Zane’s modification skills were like, but instinctively she believed, given his passion for racing, that he was as much a master on the racetrack as he was with car modifications.
"That one down there is the one Quentin Donovan wants; I just finished modifying it. Want to take a look?"
Natalie felt her throat go dry.
"Did you bring here just to see these?"
This was an absolute win.
Even though she wasn’t that interested in various sports cars, seeing such a vast array of visually striking, highly collectible cars all at once was incredibly satisfying.
But Zane just smiled, saying nothing.
He skillfully slid down the pole, then looked up at Natalie, extending his hands.
"Can you co down?"
Natalie snorted proudly.
"Of course."
Though it was her first ti, Natalie moved without a shred of hesitation, smoothly sliding down.
Her long hair traced a beautiful arc in the air.
Zane curled his lips into a smile and retracted his hands.
And coming down made it even more astounding.
This floor too was filled with cars.
Natalie: ...
"Do you decide which car can accompany you to bed every night?"
Zane reached out to smooth so stray hairs near the little girl’s ear.
"These are ones I haven’t modified yet, so are left here by friends for safekeeping. Let’s take a look, pick one."
Natalie’s eyes widened.
"You’re giving one to ?"
