Chapter 858 Something Fishy Is Going On
On the way back.
“Do you know about Samuel and Ms. Garcia before this?” Natalie lifted her head and asked.
Steven told her the truth since he knew it was impossible to hide it from her. “Yes. I once saw him at Luna’s place when I visited her. They don’t look like they were just friends back then…”
Natalie clenched her fists so hard that her nails dug into the flesh of her palms.
“I’m sorry, Natalie. I should have told you about this sooner,” Steven apologized.
“It doesn’t matter anymore.” Natalie’s eyes reddened as she spoke. “Because I don’t believe that Samuel would do that to me.”
“Natalie…”
“He put up such a good show for everyone.” Natalie wiped away her tears with the back of her hand. “If this is what Samuel wants me to believe, I will play along.”
An act? Believe him?
Steven was downright confused.
Worried that it was too much to bear for Natalie, he couldn’t help but ask, “Are you okay?”
“I’m fine,” Natalie said hoarsely. “I wish to be alone.”
“Natalie, we can grab a drink together if you want,” Steven suggested.
Natalie stared at Steven.
Samuel must have destroyed his trust after everything that has happened tonight.
Natalie smiled. “Okay, let’s go get wasted.”
Hence, the both of them headed to the bar.
Steven was a regular at the place. The bar manager immediately ushered them to Steven’s private room the moment they arrived.
There were two temperature-controlled wine cabinets in the room to store different kinds of wine.
