Chapter 1020 She Likes You
Heidi entered the Leitz residence with the butler following behind.
“Natalie Nichols? The chairwoman of Dream?” Heidi took off the pink hat on her head and asked, “What is she doing here?”
“Ms. Helma invited her here. I heard Ms. Helma tasked her with designing a piece of jewelry she would wear while attending Prince Jonathan’s birthday banquet,” said the butler, telling her everything he knew.
Heidi and Helma were born to the same father but not the same mother. While they didn’t hate each other, they weren’t close to each other either.
Heidi was destined not to be able to marry into the royal family due to her mother’s status. However, she didn’t have any interest in marrying into the royal family. She enjoyed doing whatever she wanted whenever she wanted.
When she thought about Samuel’s sturdy figure, traces of love danced across her eyes. “Interesting!”
She was very interested in the man standing by Natalie’s side, whom she thought was Natalie’s male assistant. If I can spend one night with him, I bet that experience will be very… breathtaking.
After Helma exited the living room, she saw Heidi asking the butler about Natalie. She thought her sister was jealous of her and wanted to screw up her plan for the banquet.
“Why are you asking about Dream Jewelry?” Helma asked with furrowed eyebrows.
Seeing how defensive Helma was, Heidi grinned. “Don’t worry, Helma. I’m more than happy for you to marry Prince Jonathan and take the Leitz family to even greater heights. I’m not going to do anything to mess up your plan for the prince’s birthday. I’m just… interested in Natalie’s male assistant. I want to be his friend.”
“You’re a member of the Leitz family, Heidi. Don’t go too far,” Helma reminded coldly. “I’ve heard plenty about your ‘romantic encounters’ lately. You better control yourself and not cause a mess before the banquet.”
“Do you think just because I regard you as my sister means I actually see you as my real sister, Helma?” Heidi took off her white gloves and stepped toward Helma with a cold look. “Your mother may possess noble blood, but don’t forget that without my mother’s sacrifice, our father wouldn’t have survived. You’ll at most be a lowly relative of the royal family and have none of your current glory!”
“You!” Helma exclaimed with anger.
“I’m on board with your plan to become the queen.” Heidi sneered, “However, you don’t get a say in what I do. Who I like is none of your business. I can do whatever I please! This is what you and our father owed me!”
When she finished, she ignored Helma’s furious expression and sashayed back to her bedroom.
Upon entering her bedroom, Heidi pulled out a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet and poured herself a cup of wine.
She gently swirled the cup as she stared at the red liquid reflecting light in the glass. The image of Samuel’s handsome face surfaced in her mind again. I wonder what his name is. Since he’s Natalie’s assistant, I just need to offer him a higher wage! Then he’ll become my assistant. There’s nothing wrong with that.
She really liked him, so much so that just a glance at him was enough to move her to her core. I want him! I’ll do whatever it takes to get him!
Her mind was formulating a plan to seduce Samuel as she cackled.
The next day, Samuel could feel someone stalking him when he went outside.
“Do you feel that, Jesper?” he asked with a raise eyebrow.
“There’s indeed someone following us, Mr. Bowers,” Jesper replied with a heavy expression. “I’ll ask Billy to investigate them.”
“Mhm, take care of it.”
“Roger!”
It didn’t take long before Jesper received the result of Billy’s investigation. As he drove, he reported the findings to Samuel.
“It’s the second daughter of the Leitz family, Heidi Leitz.” At first, he hesitated to report everything. Even after trying to come up with a better way to describe it, he couldn’t find the right words. So, he steeled himself and said, “It would appear that she sent someone to follow you because she likes you…”
