“They were erotic photos of you and Mr. Thompson… I mean, edited photos! They made it look like you
were sleeping with other men, and Mr. Thompson with other women…” the bodyguard replied
awkwardly.
Being professional bodyguards, they were easily able to tell if the photographs were edited, especially
since the skin tones for the faces didn’t match the ones on the bodies.
“What the f*ck? How shameless can she get, editing photos like that?” Sally began cursing angrily
before Natalie could even respond.
“Where are the photos?” Natalie asked with a frown.
“I’ve already burned them all,” the bodyguard replied immediately.
Natalie nodded in satisfaction. “Good to know.”
Although those photos were fake, it would still cause me a lot of trouble if they were leaked to the
public. People would surely jump at the opportunity to start rumors, and all the idiots would just blindly
believe them! Such cases happen all the time in the entertainment industry.
“I’ve also informed Mr. Thompson of this incident,” the bodyguard added.
“How did he respond?” Natalie asked.
“He was really angry. He wants us to increase our security levels and catch Jacqueline the next time
she delivers these packages,” the bodyguard replied.
Natalie frowned. “It won’t be easy catching her, especially with Sean backing her up.”
“Mr. Thompson is aware of that. That’s why he wants you all to stay away from the villa for the next
couple of days,” the bodyguard said.
“Where will we be staying then?” Sally asked in confusion.
“Right here in the clubhouse. The event organizers have arranged for you all to stay in a guest room
and will provide you with the details later. As long as you all remain in the clubhouse, Jacqueline will
only be able to deliver the packages to you through the staff members. We will then inform all the staff
members to nab Jacqueline the moment she approaches any one of them with a package,” the
bodyguard explained.
Sally’s eyes lit up after hearing that. “This sounds like a good idea, Nat!”
Natalie nodded in agreement. “It does. By staying here, we’ll be able to work together with the staff
members and catch Jacqueline.”
“We’re going with this plan then!” Sally said.
Natalie turned toward the bodyguard and said, “Very well. Have the organizer summon all the staff
members for a meeting.”
“Understood,” the bodyguard replied.
With that, Natalie and Sally headed off for the competition.
Due to the higher levels of difficulty, the winners would only be announced after two to three days.
All the participants would make their outfits the next day and present it on the catwalk the day after.
As most of them had only completed their designs that day, they had zero progress on creating their
outfits just yet.
Natalie too, had only selected the fabrics she wanted.
After the competition was over for the day, she headed over to the guest room with Sally and the kids.
The organizers had prepared two rooms for them, so Natalie picked the bigger one for her and the kids.
It was their first time staying in a place like this, so it was a refreshing experience for them all. The
clubhouse kept a collection of many famous designs and haute couture garments, but Natalie had been
so busy with the competition that she never had time to take a look at them. As such, staying over at
the clubhouse gave her the perfect opportunity to do so.
The next day, Natalie summoned the bodyguards before the competition and asked, “Has any of the
clubhouse’s staff members received any packages since last night?”
One of the bodyguards shook his head. “No.”
“Maybe she hasn’t delivered the one for today,” Sally guessed.
“Yeah, I think so,” Natalie said with a nod.
She then turned toward the bodyguards and gave the order, “Keep your eyes peeled, and nab her if
she shows up.”
“Yes, Madam!” the bodyguards replied in unison.
“Come on, let’s get going,” Natalie told Sally.
