Chapter 907 A Worrying Person Part Five
“I’m sorry for the misunderstanding.”
Natalie muttered with a sad gaze in her eyes.
“Thank you for waking me up from my wishful thinking and allowing me to see the reality. From now onward, I will stop thinking of such illogical situations.”
Hurt was evident in Samuel’s eyes, but he could only endure it by clenching his fists in his pockets.
As he was about to open his mouth to send Natalie away, Natalie’s phone rang.
“Yandel, did you manage to shake off Amy?”
“I’m no longer at the party anymore. If you come to pick me up, can you bring along an outfit that will not attract too much attention to me?”
After a short pause, Natalie continued, “Sure, I’ll send you my location and wait for you to arrive.”
After she ended the call, Natalie turned her attention to Samuel. With a small smile, she stated, “Mr. York, no matter what you have to say, I owe you a favor today. In the future, I will repay it. Someone is on the way to pick me up, so I shall not take up any more of your time.”
With that, Natalie gave Samuel a respectful bow before leaving.
Looking at the woman leaving, Samuel felt the urge to stop her. Yet, he could only stand rooted to the ground.
He missed her but had no reason to go any closer to her.
At the end of the day, this was the path he chose, and he had to endure whatever consequences that stems from it.
Soon, Yandel followed the directions Natalie sent him and arrived at Pendant Hall.
As per her request, Yandel brought a loose coat with him. After Natalie took off her bunny ears, she threw the clothing around her shoulders and zipped it up.
“Boss, why did you come here after leaving the party? Those who stay at Pendant Hall are quite reputable,” Yandel asked out of curiosity as he sat in the driver’s seat.
“Something cropped up, but luckily, it got resolved,” Natalie calmly replied. “Anyway, Amos has agreed to meet tomorrow to discuss the partnership.”
The corners of Yandel’s lips raised, and he looked bewildered. “Boss, do you know why I admire you? No matter what the world throws at you, you always seem to find a way to handle it.”
“Don’t bother trying to flatter me.” Natalie played with her bunny earrings and stated meaningfully, “When Dream rises in Loang, it will block the path of many other large corporations. Things will be slightly more difficult than how we tried to gain a foothold in Dellmoor. Therefore, we can’t take things lightly. We have to prepare ourselves.”
After hearing that, Yandel solemnly nodded in acknowledgment. “I understand.”
“Yandel, I need you to investigate someone.”
Yandel probed, “Who is it?”
“Xander,” Natalie murmured.
“You mean Mr. York?” Yandel raised his brows and commented, “Boss, why are you trying to find out more about him? Before he suffered from burns, he was a formidable figure that was no less than Mr. Samuel. However, he suffered severe injuries from the big fire three years ago. Even his face became deformed. I heard he became useless, and the York family had abandoned him.”
He told Natalie whatever he knew, but Natalie quickly interrupted him. “Don’t say that about him.”
Her defense did not go unnoticed by Yandel.
“Boss, are you close to him?” He glanced at her through the rearview mirror.
“No, but it is why I need you to look into him.” Although Natalie knew he was the heir of the York family, she refused to let anyone trample on him.
However, she did not know why she felt that way.
From how Natalie reacted, Yandel could tell that Xander was someone important to her. Thus, he did not express any more views and kept his opinions to himself. “Okay, I’ll look into it.”
On the other hand, the party ended.
Olivia could not wait to contact her bodyguard, Tom.
However, after she dialed his number, no one picked up for a long time. She could not help but think that Tom was too engrossed that he could not even pick up her call.
At that moment, someone answered her call.
“How are you getting along with that woman? Did you record her tragic appearance?” A cruel look flashed across her eyes.
