Chapter 513
It was no wonder that the restaurant was known all over the city. Natalie wasn’t particularly hungry when they arrived, but the food was so delicious that she managed to eat quite a lot in no time.
She served some meatballs into Brandon’s plate. “This one’s good, try it.”
He nodded and handed her a paper napkin. “You have sauce in the corner of your mouth.”
Natalie ignored the napkin and put her fork down. She looked Brandon in the eye and asked, “Tell me the truth. Are you still mad?”
If this were in the past, he wouldn’t have thought twice about leaning over and wiping her mouth himself. Why was he suddenly just giving her a pitiful piece of paper napkin?
Brandon looked up with a faint smile. “Stop overthinking it. I don’t get jealous over trivial things.”
He knew for a fact that Natalie was not interested in that guy called Derek.
After hearing the answer she wanted, Natalie allowed herself another relieved sigh. “You just told me that you had plans for the afternoon. What will we do? Are we going back to the hotel and hang out in my room?” “I would certainly like that, but do you think you’re up for it?”
Natalie froze, and her face immediately turned red.
His implication was unmistakable, and it was completely different from what she meant.
Thankfully, Brandon didn’t tease her any further. He silently placed two tickets for an art exhibition on the table.
Natalie was pleasantly surprised. “You do read my mind! I wanted to go the art exhibition, but you didn’t come to Northcliffe with me. I thought it’d be boring to go there alone so I gave up on that plan.”
Brandon just smiled and grabbed his coat. “Are you finished eating? Shall we go? Let me take you to the art exhibition, Darling.”
******
At an art gallery in Northcliffe.
The exhibition was a relatively small affair, with only a few photographers and guests wandering around.
Natalie walked arm in arm with Brandon and soaked in all the art around them.
All of a sudden, she picked up on a familiar voice. Natalie turned in its direction, and was taken aback by what she saw.
The person who had spoken was Kathie, and she was laughing merrily with her friend. Upon closer inspection, Natalie found that the woman standing next to Kathie was also familiar. It was the model who had egged her on to get drunk last night.
As she stared at the model’s delicate features, memories of the previous night slowly flashed in Natalie’s mind.
It was this woman who had approached her with her peers in tow, chatting Natalie up and showering her with praises to lower her guard. Before she knew it, they were coercing her into gulping down drink after drink at the party.
Worse still, was that they had promised to send her back to her hotel, but when Natalie woke up, she found herself surrounded by a bunch of hulking men.
