Chapter 102

Howard took the phone, his smile completely gone.

He turned to leave.

“Wait, Blondie said, looking at him lazily.

Blondie was looking at him lazily, like he couldn’t care less.

Howard stopped in his tracks and turned back to look at him.

‘And?” Blondie drawled.

Howard froze for a second.

“What?” he asked.

“The apology. Did you forget?” Blondie said lazily.

Howard’s

I’s face kept changing color, going pale one moment and flushed the next.

He glanced at the crowd, all holding up their phones to record him, then looked at Natalie’s calm expression and gritte

teeth.

‘Sorry,” he muttered, barely loud enough for anyone to hear.

He said it so fast and so quietly, it was obvious he didn’t mean it at all.

Natalie just stared at him, not saying a werd.

Her calm gaze was so unsettling, it made his skin crawl.

Howard felt a cold shiver run down his back under her stare, but with so many people watching, he couldn’t just wdik

“Happy now?” he muttered.

Natalie looked away, picked up her glass of orange juice from the table, and took a sip.

“You can leave now,” she said.

Howard looked as if he’d just been pardoned, and hurried off with his two assistants, embarrassed and de fralet

Rosie was still hanging onto Natalie’s arm, her eyes shining bright.

“Natalie, you were so badass! Those moves just now were epic!” Rosie exclaimed.

I have to learn this. I want to be just as cool as you” she said, grinning from ear to ear.

Natalie patted Rosie’s head. “Alright, alright, let’s start right now!”

The next morning, Natalie had a free morning, so she cranked out a few chapters of her novel.

After about two hours, she stopped, flexed her wrists, and took a breather.

She picked up her phone and saw a few unread messages.

One was from Rosie: [Natalie! That influencer posted a video yesterday! He totally twisted the story! I’m so pissed!]

There was a link below.

Natalie clicked on it.

It was a video Howard had posted last night, with the title: [Billiard Goddess or Billiard Bully? Let me tell you what happened to me at Cloudtop Pool Club today.]

n the video, Howard sat in front of the camera, looking all aggrieved as he dramatically recounted what had happen day before.

Hey, guys, yesterday I was streaming at Cloudtop Pool Club and ran into this girl. She was pretty, but her attitude was omething else…” he said, shaking his head.

I just wanted to interview her, but she didn’t even say a word. She just had the guy next to her take my phone away

I let it go and said fine, no filming, just play a normal game. But then she insisted on making a bet, one game to decide vinner, and if I lost, I had to donate 150 thousand dollars!

I wasn’t even worried at first, but she totally set me up and played dirty just to make me lose!

In the end, I admitted defeat, donated the 150 thousand dollars, and even apologized. But her antude‘ She was a high and mighty, like I was beneath her the whole time!

Come on, guys, you tell me, when has your boy Howard ever had to put up with this kind of hamaltation

Under the video, the comments had already blown past ten thousand

Who the heck is this chick she a so full of herself!

‘Don’t let it get to you. Howard! Were with you! Call her out

Right after that, any videos or posts about her got taken down the moment they popped up, and then a new video she straight to the top of the trending list.

It was the full surveillance footage from the pool hall, with Natalie and Rosie’s faces deliberately obscured.

The video started from the moment Howard walked into the pool hall with his crew, and it showed everything clearly.

He was livestreaming, panning his phone around the room, then pointed it right at Natalie, who was chilling in the lou

Natalie raised her hand to block her face, with a slight frown.
