Chapter 832

Natale was equally thrilled. She tapped on Sally’s shoulders excitedly and said, “Of course! You have
blown their minds away with your performance! I think you’ll soon venture into the fashion industry once
the competition is over! Maybe you’ll be the upcoming top model from a foreign country! At least you
won’t have to waste your time competing against those in the country anymore!”

“Thank you so much for the great opportunity, Nat! If it weren’t because of you, I—” Sally expressed her
gratitude with her eyes brimming.

“You need to keep those to your supervisor, my husband, Shane. If he hadn’t recommended you to me, I
might have missed out on you.”

Sally nodded and said, “You’re right! Can you please express my gratitude on my behalf the next time
you’re on the call with him?”

“I’ll go ahead and give him a call immediately!” Natalie reached for her phone and started dialing
Shane’s number.

Shane, who was on the other end of the globe, had just wrapped up a conference and was on his way
out of the conference room when he received the call.

Upon a simple glimpse at the phone, he beamed and picked up the phone. “Honey?”

Natalie flushed when she heard him. She asked in return, “Are you in the middle of something serious?”

Silas was about to hand Shane an agreement, but the latter stopped him and beckoned his assistant to
leave him alone. “Nope.”

Natalie, who was on the other end, exclaimed, “Great!”





While making his way back to his office, Shane asked, “Have you gone through the first round?”

Silas shrugged his shoulders and went after Shane.

Natalie nodded and shared the great news with her husband. “It’s over! I’m a member of Team A!”

Shane was well aware of the rules. Thus, he was conscious of what it would take to qualify herself as a
member of Team A. His eyes gleamed in excitement as he asserted, “Congratulations! I’m sure you have
done well!”

“Thanks! Speaking of which, Sally wants me to express her gratitude on her behalf! She’s about to have
the best time of her life soon!”

“Well, she deserves all the credits for her efforts. I have just provided her with an opportunity,” Shane
denoted in a calm and collected tone,

When Natalie heard Shane, she took a peek at the sniffling Sally. Seconds after she returned to her
senses, she said, “I guess you’re right.”

Shane was about to say something else to keep the conversation going, but he took a peek at Silas
when the man’s ringtone interrupted his call with Natalie.

Silas responded with a sheepish grin and reached for his phone to stop the call. However, the moment
he caught a glimpse of the contact number, his expression turned grim.

He showed Shane the phone and announced, “Mr. Shane, it’s a call from Ms. Graham’s security
personnel. I’ll head out and answer the call.”

As soon as he acquired Shane’s permission to leave, Silas headed over to the corner of Shane’s office to
pick up the call.

On the other hand, Natalie noticed something seemed to be going on. She asked, “What’s wrong?”



“It’s nothing. Silas happens to be in the middle of a call as well.”

“O-Oh—”

Natalie then continued sharing the things she had gone through with Shane.

Although the man had no idea of the jargon of the fashion industry she brought up, he listened to her
without interrupting her.

“Mr. Shane, something bad has happened!” Silas, who had wrapped up his conversation, returned with
his face turning pale and haggard.

Shane asked with a frown, “Why?”

Silas took a deep breath and announced, “Ms. Graham has attempted suicide.”

Silence fell as soon as Silas broke the news with Shane.

Seconds after Shane snapped out of confusion, he asked, “Come again?”

Silas hurriedly repeated himself, “Ms. Graham has attempted suicide.”

“Attempted suicide?” Shane asked and jolted up from his seat when he was certain he hadn’t been
hearing things.

Silas nodded and added, “Half an hour ago, they headed into Ms. Graham’s room to retrieve the utensils
as usual. However, Ms. Graham was nowhere to be seen. They started searching high and low for Ms.
Graham. In the end, they found her in the bathroom with her wrist slit.”

Shane grasped his phone and went dead silent. He started emanating an intimidating presence.



Natalie, who was on the other end of the call, overheard their conversation. She asked with a frown,
“Shane, what’s wrong? Who has committed suicide?”

“Jacqueline!”

Natalie’s pupils constricted. She asked to reaffirm the things she had heard, “What? Are you serious?”

“Unfortunately so.”

Natalie’s mind was all over the place. It took her a few seconds to return to her senses. “W-Where is
she? I-Is everything fine?”
