Seeing Natalie’s calm appearance, Lina gradually loosened up. “We’ll let her run away first then. It’s nice to play such games at times too.”
Natalie only smiled and said nothing.
Just as they finished talking, they saw Julian retracting her pace in fear. The crowd behind her also followed suit.
“What’s going on?” The puzzled Lina straightened her back.
Natalie shook her head, expressing how she was clueless about the situation similarly.
But soon, they knew what was happening.
Just as Julian thought she could successfully get off with it, she saw several big-built bodyguards before her along the corridor outside the conference room. They appeared extremely brutal and unfeeling.
Before the row of bodyguards was an authoritative-looking man. The man was emanating an indescribable sense of oppression and dominance that left Julian so intimidated that she could barely breathe.
Of course, she recognized that man. It was Natalie’s husband, Shane.
At that moment, Julian’s mind became clear as day. Natalie must’ve complained to her husband. That’s why he’s here with his men.
And because she figured there was no way she could escape, she could only retreat into the conference room.
“Nat, it’s Mr. Shane.” Seeing Shane and several bodyguards, Lina was thrilled as she held onto Natalie’s hand. “Mr. Shane must have specially come here with his men after finding out that it’s Julian.”
Lina’s grip grew a little too intense that Natalie felt a dull ache in her hand. But judging how delighted the former was, she ultimately left her to it.
After Shane’s bodyguards surrounded the entrance and made sure no one, not even a fly, could enter or exit, Shane then cast his gaze at Natalie.
Natalie walked over. “Because of Julian?”
Shane nodded. “But not exactly. It’s also because of other people who are up to no good.”
As he said that, he swept his cold gaze across the designers in the room.
