It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 127

Belinda found that she had chosen the wrong guy to mess with. He wouldn't let her go after they shared the most intimate connection. What was more shocking? Duke standing on her front porch at the crack of dawn.

She massaged her temples, feeling a headache coming on. She remembered what he said to her that morning. 'I need to be prepared? Why? Does he think I'm clay to be molded as he wishes? It was just a one-night-stand. And hanging up on him should not be a big deal. He did not have the right to threaten me.' Belinda thought.

The secretary's touch jolted her out of her reverie. "Miss Belinda. Are you listening? What's wrong?" the secretary asked in a low voice, wondering what diverted her attention in the middle of a meeting. The expression on Belinda's face told the secretary what she needed to know. She was not paying attention at all.

"Umm...Nothing. Have you all finished reporting?" If that's it, then you're dismissed." Belinda came back to her senses and glanced at them. Her imposing manner was back.

"Miss Belinda, Just now the sales manager asked if we should step up the advertising campaign." The secretary again whispered in her ear, feeling embarrassed by her reactions. Didn't she notice that everyone was waiting? Instead of responding to the manager, Belinda adjourned the meeting. Again, she wasn't listening.

"Oh... I'll talk to FX International Group about the advertising campaign. But I want you to know the advertisement can only be a supplement to our products. It's the quality of our products that matters." Belinda flipped through the documents in front of her to hide her anxiety.

"Yes, madam. We will strictly monitor the quality of our products." The sales manager replied respectfully. Although he was much older than Belinda, he was willing to follow the order, as she had been iron-handed after taking over the company.

"Any more questions? If not, we're done here." Belinda's mind was neither on business, nor on the embarrassing situation she was in. And she wasn't in the mood to continue the meeting. Duke was foremost on her mind, and he was a problem.

'Damn it. Why was he always so serious? As adults, a one night stand should not be a big deal.' Belinda thought to herself.

The senior officials could see that Belinda was not in a good mood. No one dared to say anything even if there was a question, as they were afraid that Belinda would vent her anger on them.

Belinda picked up the file on the desk and left the meeting room. Her phone rang, and when she saw the name of the caller she wished the meeting could go on forever.

Belinda let the phone go to voice mail. And no sooner than it stopped did it start ringing again. She didn't have time to breathe.

"Miss Belinda, you are not going to answer it?" The secretary looked at her curiously and wondered what made her behave so strangely today.

"Umm... It's not important. I don't need to answer it." Belinda frowned, staring at her ringing phone and lost in thought.
