Chapter 267
In truth, Natalie was not only showing her appreciation for Samuel‘s generosity in gifting her a winery, but she was also thankful for his love toward her.
“Stay by my side and repay me slowly.” Holding Natalie tightly by her waist, Samuel pressed against her body and leaned close to her ears. “As long as it‘s you, I don‘t mind.”
Natalie felt even her cheeks burning as emotions surged within her.
“I–I‘m a little thirsty. Let me go get a drink.”
She quickly walked away and started fanning trying to cool herself down.
She was so flustered that she could even vividly feel her cheeks blushing red.
Oh gosh. This isn’t good. Why am I getting more and more easily affected by Samuel?
Seeing a server walking past her, she quickly grabbed a drink from the tray and took two sips.
“Look! That‘s the woman whom Samuel kissed!”
“She must be a talented lady to be able to beat Susan and Phoebe. But it‘s a pity she doesn‘t look as pretty.”
“Perhaps that‘s the secret of successful people, unlike you and I who‘re only after looks.”
Unable to hold her embarrassment in, Natalie almost spat out the beverage in her mouth.
The evaluation from head–to–toe made her feel so embarrassed it was as though she went through the walk of shame.
After several sips of the iced beverage, she finally cooled herself down. Just as she wanted to look for Samuel, a familiar figure bumped onto her violently.
Burgundy–colored wine spilled straight onto her.
The familiar figure that bumped her turned out to be none other than Phoebe.
1001 TOO.
Chapter 267
“Oh, I‘m sorry.” Phoebe had a look of apology written all over her face. “I don‘t mean it. I‘m so sorry that I got your gown dirty.”
She wants to play such tricks? Game on then!
