Chapter 990 It Is You
As soon as Muse’s Rebirth jewelry collection was launched, it received great acclaim from the public.
Since the product launch, the Rebirth collection and Yvette’s endorsement poster shot to the top three on the trending list.
After the product launch ended, the staff present were all in high spirits, beaming from ear to ear.
They had all been in a foul mood when Farrington Jewelry framed them back then, but they had successfully turned the tables. Hence, everyone felt that they had finally gotten their revenge.
Among the crowd was Natalie, who was dressed in a white lace dress and had her long hair tied up in a bun.
With a faint smile playing in her eyes, she languidly folded her arms.
She wasn’t emotional or excited. Instead, the calmness and composure radiating off her were wholly different from the atmosphere there.
After ascertaining with her own eyes that the product launch had ended successfully, she texted Yandel before getting to her feet to leave.
When she walked out of the product launch venue, she bumped into Amos, who was in a wine-red suit.
Halting in her steps, Natalie looked at the man in front of her and remarked smilingly, “You are here as well?”
“Although I knew before coming that Dream would shoot to stardom overnight, I realized I have still underestimated the capabilities of you and Dream after I came here. Back when you came to me to discuss collaboration on the ore project, I thought that I propelled you to success and gave Dream an opportunity. But judging from Dream’s development now, perhaps Stone Corporation will one day ride on its coattails instead,” Amos lamented.
With a gentle smile, Natalie replied, “You flatter me. Business collaborations are mutually beneficial in the first place. However, I’m very thankful that you hold me and Dream in such high regard, Mr. Stone. I look forward to collaborating with you again in the future.”
She had made things clear to him previously, so she merely regarded him as a business partner then.
Extending a hand to him graciously, she flashed him a smile. “The success tonight is also thanks to Stone Corporation for providing us with high-quality thunderstone.”
Amos shook Natalie’s hand, dazzled by her smile.
“Don’t mention it.”
After shaking hands, Natalie made to leave.
“Natalie.” Amos suddenly called out to her.
“Is something else the matter?” Natalie inquired as she turned back around.
“You know the kind of person my father is. He just texted me and asked me to invite you home for a visit when you’re free,” Amos uttered embarrassingly.
“Got it. I’ll go over when I’m free,” Natalie promised with a smile.
A glimmer of desolation flashed across Amos’ eyes. Subsequently, he murmured with a chuckle, “Okay. I’ll convey that to my father.”
Despite knowing that a relationship between him and Natalie was practically impossible, he still couldn’t take his eyes off her.
To him, giving up would probably require a long time.
When Natalie left this time, Amos didn’t stop her anymore. She exited the product launch venue soon.
She drove there that day.
Just as she was planning to head to the plaza to retrieve her car, the deafening roar of an engine split the air a stone’s throw away.
She reflexively swung her gaze in the direction of the sound, only to be greeted by sharp and blinding headlights. She frantically backed away several steps, but the car seemingly locked on to her and barreled toward her at breakneck speed.
That turn of events was too sudden and caught her off guard.
When the car was hurtling at her like a beast having broken free of its restraints, a figure rushed out and shoved her away.
Falling to the ground, Natalie sustained some scrapes and bruises on her arms.
However, the man who pushed her away wasn’t so lucky. He was flung into the air by the car before slamming into the ground hard.
Following that hit, the car screeched to a stop.
With her face deathly pale, Natalie scrambled up from the ground and hurried over to the man who had fallen beside her.
She cautiously turned him over. The moment she glimpsed his countenance, her brows creased deeply. “It’s you? Jerry… Jones?”
