Part 1: Natalie And Trevor In Turning of The Tide
Natalie Foster borrowed her best friend Sherri’s limo to get faster to the City Hall. She couldn’t waste any more time as she only asked for a three-hour permit away from the hospital. She needed to get back to work.
In front of the City Hall, there were parked four luxurious cars. Natalie had no idea who owned those vehicles, nor did she care. She only needed to get her task done. She had promised her grandfather that she would marry old Wilson’s grandson and she had to do just that and get back to work at the hospital.
Meeting the old man and Trevor, Natalie couldn’t stop herself from asking how fast things go at the City Hall. Although her rush was caused by her need to get back to her job, Trevor believed that the woman was anxious to marry him for his money.
As soon as the papers were signed, both Trevor and Natalie went their separate ways. After her shift at the hospital, Natalie went straight to her grandfather. She had to tell him the good news, that she fulfilled his request and married his friend’s grandson.
Old man Foster was afraid that he would die and leave Natalie all alone, with no one to care for her. The girl’s biological father was a greedy man who never took care of his daughter, while Trevor, even though he didn’t love Natalie, he would protect her just for being his wife.
Now, that the man knew his precious Natalie would be cared for, gave his last breath that very night. Trevor didn’t join her in mourning though, he was waiting for the three months to pass so he could get a divorce.
After the funeral, Natalie moved in with her husband, who presented her with a premarital agreement. Besides a list of the assets that she wasn’t allowed to touch, there was also a clause that made her burst into laughing.
Natalie wasn’t allowed to reveal their secret marriage to anyone, lest she would pay millions of dollars for her mistake. The truth is that Natalie never wanted people to know about their connection, so she immediately signed the contract.
Trevor was taken aback with her indifference, yet he didn’t say anything.
Being part of the family now meant that Natalie had to attend their gatherings, thus she had to spend more time with her husband. While being with the family, they had to pretend to be on good terms, yet when they were at home, they mostly ignored each other.

Trevor realizes that he is drawn to his wife, thus he starts taking interest in her life and even protecting her. Will their loveless marriage turn into a real loving one? Will Natalie open her heart to him?

As Natalie and Trevor proceeded inside the family mansion, she believed that she heard a familiar voice. She still followed her husband inside and sat on the sofa with him.
Carlos Wilson was intrigued with the girl’s beauty and asked his great nephew to introduce her. Sure enough, Trevor told him that Natalie was his wife. Within the family he could reveal their secret.
As soon as Emily saw Natalie, her mood changed. She grabbed Max’s hand and squeezed it tightly. Max reprimanded her for hurting him. After all, Emily wasn’t even that special. Yes, he did bring her home, but she was just another woman he wanted to bed.
Throughout the entire evening, everyone ignored Emily, prompting her to believe that Natalie schemed against her, making everybody purposely disregard her presence.
Skimming through the room, Trevor saw that Max was intently eying his wife. The man was a player, so he half expected him to be interested in Natalie.
After receiving an emerald necklace from the family, Natalie’s phone buzzed. It was a message from Sherri, asking her if she was having fun with her husband. Smiling, Natalie responded that she had no husband, which Trevor saw. He couldn’t help but ask his wife if their marriage license was a fake.
