Chapter 943 What Are You Expecting
“Achoo!”
Natalie sneezed in the middle of her journey. Following that, she reached out to switch off the air conditioner in the car.
Right then, her phone rang.
Natalie put on her Bluetooth earphone and answered the call.
It was Falcon, the man she had entrusted to investigate Xander last night.
“I’m driving, so read everything out for me. Don’t miss any detail,” Natalie said as she gripped the steering wheel and narrowed her gaze. Strangely, her instincts told her that Xander was somehow related to Samuel.
Thus, Falcon reported his investigation results to her.
“Xander York, twenty-eight years old. He’s the eldest son of the York family. After a fire, he suffered burns on his face and body. He usually wears a silver mask…”
Natalie listened to his report patiently. Falcon did not miss any details, and he even discovered that it was Xander’s relative who tried to take his life. However, there was nothing to connect him to Samuel.
After the report came to an end, she pursed her lips as her gaze flickered.
She had no idea what she was expecting.
In fact, she did not know whether she should be disappointed or feel fortunate.
Was it all my imagination? I was upset after losing him, so I started imagining things.
As Natalie did not respond, Falcon added, “I’ve completed the investigation, so please don’t forget to make the payment to my account.”
“Got it,” Natalie responded. With that, she then ended the call.
Xander York, huh? There’s more to him than Falcon’s report suggested. He couldn’t find anything else, so I’ll have to dig it out in the future slowly.
Before heading to work at Dream, Natalie stopped by Stone Corporation.
In the luxuriously decorated lobby, she was about to fill in the visitor’s form. When she had just filled in her name, the receptionist shot her a warm smile. “Ms. Nichols, our CEO has named you as a distinguished visitor, so you don’t have to fill in this visitor’s form.”
“Hmm?” Natalie was surprised, but she quickly regained her composure.
Perhaps Amos listed me as a distinguished visitor after Dream signed that contract to collaborate with Stone Corporation.
Under the Public Relations Department manager’s lead, Natalie entered the VIP elevator.
After the doors slid shut, the receptionists’ polite expressions slipped, and they started gossiping about Natalie.
“So she’s the VVIP that our CEO appointed?”
“She’s indeed gorgeous. But this is the first time he has ever done this. Previously, not even important clients of our company get this privilege. He would only list them as VIPs. Now, she’s the first VVIP for our company and needs the PR manager to escort her up. I’m certain he reserved this privilege for his beloved.”
“But I thought he has a fiancée?”
“Yeah! Her name is Olivia Jones if I’m not mistaken. I’ve seen her in a commercial poster saying she’s the prettiest socialite. Did their wedding fall through?”
“That’s not it. Mr. Stone and Olivia must’ve agreed to a marriage of convenience, so his heart belongs to Natalie. I have to admit that Natalie is more graceful and beautiful than Olivia.”
They were chatting happily and did not notice a lady wearing shades coming to a stop before them.
After halting in her tracks, Olivia removed the shades that covered half of her face and glared at them menacingly.
“Natalie? Who is that? Repeat everything you said just now!” she demanded.
The receptionist, who had seen Olivia’s commercial poster previously, instantly recognized her. “M-Ms. Jones?”
Olivia slammed her expensive shades onto the desk and towered above them. “Both of you, repeat your words. Don’t miss anything out!”
