Chapter 533
A few smiles and small chuckles broke out from the crowd from her nervous but earnest declaration. With that, the air in the room grew lighter and stiff bodies gradually relaxed.
Natalie raised her chin and said with an encouraging smile, “We all want what’s best for W Marks. And we need everyone’s help to achieve that.”
The sound of footsteps and chairs being pulled filled the room the next moment as the staff members returned to their desks. Natalie tugged at the corner of Elizabeth’s clothes and pulled her aside. “Why did you come back so soon?” Natalie asked curiously.
Jorge’s violent assault had shaken Elizabeth greatly. Natalie had thought that she should be taking a long period off to prioritize her recovery.
At the same time, she didn’t know how to tell Elizabeth that Jorge had taken his own life in the police station.
Elizabeth said in a quiet voice, “I am aware that recently something has happened to the studio, so I asked Mr. Wesley if I could return to work early. I assume you may need assistance at this time.”
From what Elizabeth could tell, rumors about Draco and Natalie went viral on the Internet. Furthermore, the automobile involved in the accident reported on today’s news had the same license plate number as Dalores’ car. It was clear to Elizabeth that W Marks had been through a lot in her absence, and she worried that this would bring about some internal turmoil.
Draco had always wished Elizabeth could return to work, so when she proposed it, he immediately agreed.
“When Dalores left, she left quite a mess behind. You returned just at the critical moment.” Natalie was thrilled that Elizabeth was able to return to W Marks.
But Natalie was hesitant when she thought of Jorge. “Do you know that Jorge committed suicide while in the police station?” she asked.
The expression on Elizabeth’s face changed.
She was not smiling anymore and seemed a little down. “I know. I just got a call from the cops.”
She drew a deep breath and added, “Although I was shocked at the moment, I felt relieved when I thought back on it. Natalie, I wanna thank you and Brandon for everything. I am finally free.”
She ran her fingers over the scars on her hand. All of them were left by Jorge, but now that he was deceased, she could begin a new life.
Natalie also felt relieved. It was good that Elizabeth was able to let go of it.
A grin forming on her face, she replied, “I intended to console you, but it seems that you don’t need it.”
After a short pause, Elizabeth replied, “Tell me if there’s anything I can help with. That day, my aunt and I might have been killed by Jorge if not for you and Brandon.”
“That; forget about it. We just happened to be looking for Jorge at the moment. But please, I am indeed hoping that you can help me with something.” Blinking her gorgeous eyes, Natalie said, “Since Mr. Wesley is not around for the time being and you are his most talented apprentice, how about you give me some design advice? I want to make my design skill more flawless.”
Natalie’s request surprised Elizabeth because of how small it was, given that Elizabeth had been eager to hear it. She sighed and grinned helplessly as she shook her head. “Okay, you two, get ready. This afternoon, there’s a whole new project waiting for us.” Tasha walked over to them, smiled, and handed them the documents.
“What? It’s from a foreign client!” For some reason, Natalie was really intrigued.
