Perfect life? Perhaps not

20 years ago

Natalie Anderson is drinking coffee with her best friend Irene Cordon Avelli on the terasse on top of the Anderson Towers stationed in New York City.

"I can't believe Vasilij (Irene's husband) left you alone with Adam and Sasha here while he is somewhere in Europe giving the speech about his success." she states.

She quickly gets an answer from Irene: "Yeah I know. I hate him for that. But Adam and Sasha seem happy spending the day with their nanny Peggy. Anyways this is not the reason I came here to talk about today."

"Yeah I know. You stated on the phone that you have finally tell me the truth about something. Please tell me finally what this is all about." Natalie states waiting impatiently.

"This is about George (Natalie's husband) and me. You remember the week you were in the hospital after giving birth to Christopher? By the way where is George today?" Irene asks.

"He is on a business trip in Slovenia I think. He is planning on opening a hotel or a camp there. And as for your other question yes I remember. I think he said that he was sick and can't come to visit me and Chris in the hospital."

"He didn't tell you the whole truth. He wasn't sick, he was actually hanging out with me in a hotel room."

"You are the one he cheated me with? How dare you? You are my best friend. But I guess not anymore." Natalie answers with sadness and anger in her voice. "I don't ever want to see you again. You mean nothing to me. And I will make sure that the Andersons will never hang out with you Avelli Cordons."

"Please forgive me." begs Irene but it doesn't help her since Natalie is already calling the security to escort her out of the building.

After Irene is out of the building Natalie says to herself "Never again will I comunicate with the Avellis!"
