Chapter 91
After that, Natalie hung up the call.
Perhaps out of guilt, she immediately switched her phone to airplane mode after hanging up.
This guy slept with me and then maintained an ambiguous, intimate relationship with Yara for these past few years. And now, he‘s trying to act as if he deeply loves me. Does he really think that I‘m some young and oblivious girl?
Natalie wrapped her arms around her legs and curled into a ball while muttering to herself, “You‘re such a liar, Samuel! I’d never believe you!”
Staring at the darkened screen on her phone only made her even more desolate than she‘d ever felt before.
Meanwhile, at the CEO‘s office in Centurion Corporation, Samuel was feeling so frustrated that it was nearly hard to breathe.
Is she really willing to leave me for just ten million? If she wanted money, I would have given it to her. She could ask for all of my assets and properties and I would still give them to her. She could ask for all of me and I would give myself to her. But she‘s afraid of breaching some contract, and that‘s why we can never meet up anymore?
“Natalie..” Samuel‘s gaze darkened. “You‘re mine. There‘s no way you can escape from me.”
Elsewhere at the KINGS bar, Natalie entered a private room that Yandel had booked to see both Yandel and Ross, who were waiting for her.
As soon as he saw her, Yandel approached Natalie to butter her up.
“You‘re finally here, Boss!” Yandel picked up a bottle of wine and continued, “This is Romani Conti from 1982. It was super hard to get my hands on this, and I specifically kept it for you.”
“Then I‘ll give it a try.”
Yandel was on cloud nine upon receiving her compliment. If he had a dog tail, it would have been wagging.
.
“Okay, great! As long as you like it!“. Ross, sitting off to one side and listening in on the entire exchange, widened his eyes in bewilderment.
This girl is clearly not Natalie. So why is Yandel addressing her as “Boss“?
“Yandel, this is...” Ross‘s voice trailed off before he finally snapped back to reality. “I thought your boss was Natalie. Just how many bosses do you have?”
Yandel was well aware of how Natalie looked barefaced as well as the hyper–realistic masks she wore every day.
