Chapter 189 Everyone Was Stunned
As expected, Natasha caused a stir when she stepped into the main hall.
Everyone turned to look at her and began to whisper amongst themselves.
They all thought Hamilton Corporation had invited a celebrity. After all, it was rare to see a woman with such a beautiful appearance and elegant demeanor.
A few even took out their phones to snap photos.
“Who is she? Have you seen her before?” a man asked.
“No, I haven’t!” another answered.
“She is so gorgeous. Is she a celebrity?”
“Just look at her demeanor. She does look like a celebrity!”
“Is Hamilton Corporation supporting a new artist?”
“I have never heard of such a venture by Hamilton Corporation!”
“Wow, she is delightful. She will be popular if she debuts as an actress or a singer!”
“I think so too. I’ve never seen someone so beautiful!”
“Why don’t you go up and ask her?”
“Are you asking for trouble? She is not that simple. Did you not see Kenneth’s assistant walking behind her? This woman has connections with Kenneth. Aren’t you scared that you might offend him and bring disaster onto yourself?”
“You’re right. Thank you for reminding me!”
“Let’s wait and see!”
Fabian looked at the people who had gathered and saw them whispering amongst themselves. He had long predicted they would react this way.
I suspect Mr. Hamilton has a reason for doing this!
He glanced at Natasha and saw that she was not bothered by the crowd’s reaction. She behaved as if she had not noticed them.
She found a quiet spot, grabbed a glass of champagne, and sat down.
Natasha noticed Fabian still standing nearby. She frowned at him. “Fabian.”
“Yes, Ms. Watson,” Fabian said.
“This seems like a grand event. Aren’t you busy?” Natasha asked.
“Yes, but…” Fabian hesitated.
“Since you are busy, you don’t have to stay here,” Natasha said.
“Mr. Hamilton instructed me that I am to take good care of you,” Fabian replied.
Natasha smirked. “I am not a kid, and I won’t get lost. So, don’t worry. I’ll still be here after you have finished your tasks.”
“But…” Fabian wanted to say something, but someone rushed to him and whispered into his ear, prompting him to frown.
Then, Fabian turned to Natasha solemnly. “Ms. Watson, please rest here for a while. I have matters to deal with and shall come back soon.”
Natasha nodded. “Sure, go ahead.”
He left urgently after that.
Natasha breathed a sigh of relief after Fabian left. She felt a lot more at ease without him watching her.
She relaxed on the couch and sipped on the glass of champagne.
Natasha rarely attended a formal event like this because she found it boring.
Despite the glitz and glamour and the smiles on everyone’s faces, each had their goals and desires but had to take great pains to conceal them. Natasha felt exhausted just watching them. She wished she could have stayed home and sleep in peace.
At that thought, Natasha wondered why she had agreed to do this without making sure what the event was about. What was I thinking?
However, she was already here, so she decided to go with the flow.
Since she was here to repay a favor, she decided not dwell on it too much.
Unfortunately, she had only sat for a while before someone came to hit on her. “Good evening. Are you here alone?”
Natasha glanced at him indifferently. “No.”
The man smiled apologetically. “I’m sorry for disturbing you.”
