The Rise Of Nathalia Carter Chapter 410
Advertisement
Katie looked fearful suddenly, but quickly recomposed herself. Lifting her chest up, she stepped forward, stood between Ryan and Nathalia, and answered, "Of course! It's a mistake. You are so pathetic. You come here to spoil my brother's wedding and even try to rob me of my fiance just because Ryan looks a bit like your dead husband!"
On hearing so, especially the last two words, Nathalia narrowed her eyes as she stared at Katie. She bit her lips slightly. Wendy was furious, and she was clenching her fists, ready to support Nathalia and shout at Katie.
However, Nathalia regained her usual calmness. She smiled, and her smile sent a shiver down Katie's spine. Ryan was more curious now, surprised by Nathalia's reaction. He felt like Nathalia wasn't just any usual woman. She looks as if she possesses the power to get what she wants. She has the look of determination and invincible confidence. And he found himself even more attracted to her. I want to get to know her, yet I feel like I know her already.
"Spencer," Nathalia spoke, looking at Ryan. Ryan almost said 'yes' despite himself. Katie felt his hand twitch and looked at him anxiously.
"Give me your number." Nathalia took out her phone and handed it to Ryan. Ryan hesitated. She's actually giving me an order, but I don't even find it rude, instead, it sounds so natural from her. He thought. He knew he shouldn't, but he took the phone and entered his number. Nathalia smiled at him, sweetly. He saw the light of hope in her teary eyes and contagious smile, and his lips curled up to a smile. "Now, give me your phone," Nathalia said.
Outraged, Katie interfered, "No!"
Nathalia ignored her but looked at Ryan with the innocent look of a little girl asking for sweets. Ryan took his phone out of his pocket, unlocked it, and handed it to Nathalia.

Everyone watched in bewilderment. It was all too strange to anyone with common sense, yet seemed so natural between the two.
Nathalia gave the phone back to Spencer after entering her number under the name of 'Babe Nathalia.' "Enjoy the party." She said to him with a smile and then added sternly, "But don't marry her."
Ryan chuckled. "I will call you soon." Nathalia winked cheekily.
"Congratulations, Jeff. I shall not spoil your party. See you." Nathalia turned to leave. Wendy met her eyes with a smile and walked out of the venue with her.
As soon as they left the party, Nathalia called Curt. She explained the situation as calmly as she could. "Dad, I need your help. We need the best detective to investigate Jeff Taylor and Katie Taylor." They decided to cancel their flight back to Greece until they found out the truth. "Dad, I feel like he remembers me deep down in his subconsciousness. He just needs some help from us, us who love him."
Nathalia stayed with Wendy for a few days. As expected, she couldn't sleep the first night as she couldn't help thinking about Spencer. It was around three in the morning when she sent a photo of them taken on their wedding day, and to her surprise, a few minutes later, Ryan replied.
"Tell me more about him." He said. He hadn't been able to sleep either. Katie made him promise that he would never contact Nathalia, and just to stop her persistent annoyance, he agreed. He was having a whiskey in the kitchen when he saw the message. He gazed at the photo, the face that looked just like his, and felt like he knew him. Nathalia's face was radiant. He couldn't help noticing, and his heart raced fast for her. "They are in love." He heard himself say.

"What's your favorite place in town?" Nathalia replied. Her heart was pounding. She knew she had to see him in private. I will wake him up. He will remember. She told herself.
"Déjà vu Café on Kings Street." Ryan replied.
"Meet me there at 3 p.m.," Nathalia said, and again, it wasn't a question or invitation, but more like an order. And again, Ryan found it irresistible. "Good night, honey. Sweet dreams." Nathalia said affectionately.
Ryan gazed at the screen for a few seconds. He typed, "Good night, babe." and then deleted the last word, and at last, added it again.
Nathalia smiled and put the phone down. "I love you, Spencer. Meet you in your dreams." She whispered and finally fell asleep.
Curt had called and ordered the detective that had been watching Matt investigate Jeff and Katie Taylor right after he spoke to Nathalia on the phone. He then recalled that his PA once informed him of the new cooperation of the Davidson Group with a certain oil company. "Check the new cooperation project and see if Matt and this Jeff Taylor know each other." He added before hanging up.
He had also had a sleepless night. Sue seemed to have felt his upset emotion and woke up in the middle of the night to find Curt awake, smoking at the balcony in the dim moonlight. Curt had thought if he should tell Sue now.
When Sue hugged him from behind, and he felt her meltingly comforting embrace, he knew he should. She can take it. She's not what she used to be anymore. He thought.
As Sue sat down next to him, Curt held her hands, looking into her eyes, and said gently, "Honey, I have something very important to tell you. It's still uncertain, but we have probably found our son, Spencer." He spoke slowly to help it sink in.
Tears welled up in Sue's eyes. She nodded. Curt understood and went on to explain calmly in a soft voice. He also told her about the letter he received from Lisa four years ago and the investigation that had been going on since then.
Sue listened quietly, but her mind was spinning fast, and her heart was pounding nervously. Spencer, my boy, come home, come back to us. She prayed.
In the end, she asked, "If Matt is involved, what will you do?" Sue asked calmly. Curt looked at her, opened his mouth slightly for a second, but he didn't say anything. Sue understood it wasn't an easy question. She squeezed his hand gently and said with a smile, "I'm happy as long as Spencer comes home safe. Whatever you decide to do, you have my trust and support."
Curt smiled gratefully and pecked a kiss on her cheek, "Thank you, darling."
