He was a bearded old man instead of William.
Natasya was too excited until she had fail to notice that the man was not William despite them wearing the exact same clothing.
She wanted to leave immediately upon realizing that she had gotten them mixed up. However, the man was one step ahead of her and immediately grab ahold of Natasya.
“What are you doing? Let go of me right now!” Natasya struggled and was taken aback by it.
The man remained silent and continued to hold her tightly. She eventually fell to the ground and soon heard stripping sounds.
She was angry but also afraid at the same time. She tried her best to break free but did not stand any chance against him.
The man did things professionally and her outfit was soon stripped into pieces in a blink of an eye.
He decided to take things further and began to harrass Natasya.
She was initially reluctant to cry for help as she had sneaked into the villa and would be punished upon being discovered.
She had a ray of hope that the man would eventually let her go. She decided to shout for assistance as soon as her clothes were being ripped apart, “Help! Someone, please help me!”
The man expedited his moves when Natasya continued her cry for help. She was soon stripped naked and her clothes were being thrown into the lake.
Natasya screamed at the top of her lungs as she was increasingly feeling humiliated and intimidated by the man. Someone eventually heard her cry for help and rushed over.
It was the bodyguards of the Howard family and they were all men. More than ten of them had come over as soon as they heard her from afar.
They had a surprised look on their faces upon seeing Natasya being in a mess. “What’s going on? I don’t recall this woman being on the invitation list. How did she manage to get in?”
Natasya’s clothes were shredded into pieces and being discarded into the lake. She had no choice but used her hands to cover herself up and was feeling deeply embarrassed by it.
The bodyguards stood there and continued to make fun of her. One of them deliberately raised his voice and said, “Oh My God, isn’t this the shameless slut from the Anderson family? Why would she come all the way here to do indecent things?”
“She is a b*tch who likes to sleep around with different men. Does she happen to have a thing of being naked and linger around?”
“Don’t you think that she is extremely thick-skinned? How could she come here to do such a shameless thing?”
It was a mess and a few guests eventually came over to have a look. Someone among the guests had deliberately spread the news that Natasya was naked and was seen to be doing improper things by the lakeside.
No one could resist such a juicy piece of news and the crowd flocked over to have a look at Natasya.
She was embarrassed as the crowd eventually got much bigger. She saw William heading towards here with her own eyes just now and wondered why would he disappear all of a sudden.
The man did not leave but instead told the crowd, “Ladies and gentlemen, I apologize as I didn’t mean to cause trouble. This woman had taken me through the doghole as she claimed that she wanted to do things around here.”
The bodyguards eventually threw a dirty piece of clothing at her when they were satisfied with the show. “What? Don’t you know that trespassing into someone else’s property is illegal?”
“I don’t know much about the law as I am just a mere beggar. How could I possibly be aware of this when I have difficulties in having a decent meal every day?” The man continued, “She had given me some funds and wanted me to do some thrilling activities with her. I agreed immediately as I had never seen such a huge amount of money throughout my life before. I really didn’t mean to break into this villa. Please let me go!”
“He’s lying as I do not know him at all! He’s a liar and his words should not be listened to!” Natasya screamed and retorted.
“Ms, I am curious about something. How could you managed to get in when Sir William did not invite you to his birthday party tonight?” The bodyguards were giving her a hard time.
“Who says so? I was personally invited by William. You can call him over if you are feeling doubtful of it,” Natasya had no choice but to go all out.
She was convinced that William would definitely help her out as he was being controlled by her.
She was initially afraid that the bodyguards would be reluctant to seek William for verification and did not expect them to agree on her proposal immediately. “Alright then, we will send someone to inform Sir William to come over right now.”
One of them immediately proceeded to find William. Natasya had a piece of clothing on and was not as messy as before. She calmed down and started to think of her next move.
She had been humiliated and he was her last glimmer of hope. She hoped that William would behave the same way as to how Hardy had treated Talitha.
Natasya was lost in her thoughts and she soon heard the crowd say, “William is here!”
William was seen to be holding Valeria’s arm when they made their way towards Natasya. Richard, Michael, and others followed closely behind the couple.
William had a serious look on his face and questioned, “What happened here?”
“William!” Natasya cried out pitifully as soon as she saw him.
He stared at her coldly and said, “Ms., please do not cross the line as only my loved ones and relatives would call me by this name. Don’t you think it’s rude to address me this way when I do not know you at all?”
“But… you…” His attitude was a total opposite compared to during the day. Natasya was puzzled by his sudden change of behavior towards her.
“What are you trying to say? What is your motive to sneak into my property and do such an indecent thing? Are you trying to cause trouble or do you happen to have a weird preference? Don’t you know that this is against the law?”
Natasya was taken aback as she did not expect things to turn out this way. “Weren’t you deeply in love with me? Look at me…”
“Natasya, what on earth are you talking about?” Valeria raised her voice, “My husband did not invite you to his birthday party. How did you manage to sneak in and what ulterior motives do you have in mind?”
“Wlliam and Valeria, they were doing indecent things in the garden. He is a beggar and told us that she had paid him to satisfy her. They came in from the doghole and eventually found their way here. We were patrolling when they were seen to be naked and doing… They did not stop when we headed over and she even invited us to join her along.”
The man nodded and agreed to the bodyguard’s statement, “Yes, he is telling the truth. She started to make a fuss when they rejected her proposal. Please let me go as I am innocent and only in for the sake of money!”
