Chapter 210
She carefully adjusted Brian’s tie and collar, stepping back with a nod of approval. “There, all
set.”
Before she could move away, Brian’s arms encircled her waist, pulling her back against him swiftly and possessively.
He took it as an indication that Natalie was finally letting her guard down around him, and wasn’t harbouring any resentment anymore. Their eyes met, and before Natalie could utter a word, Brian leaned in and kissed her lips gently.
Natalie’s lips went swollen when they parted, her breaths coming out in short gasps. “You’re going to miss your flight,” she warned.
What Brian had given up for Natalie in his life was far more than just one business deal.
But he wouldn’t push her if she wasn’t ready to continue.
She was destined to be his, sooner or later.
After returning to the set in the evening, Natalie stepped out of a car belonging to the Morales family just as Miller was driving by. Doing a double–take, he inspected the vehicle more closely in his rear–view mirror.

“Plus, you know they’ve axed Arlen, and they’re reshooting his scenes. A few days off won’t make a difference.”
Miller felt like he had bad luck this year. A production, one month in, two reshoots, and a schedule that was supposed to wrap in five months looked like it would take half a year.
Natalie had only been to the set twice recently and hadn’t noticed Arlen’s absence until Miller mentioned it.
After a moment, she asked in a low voice, “What happened?”
Miller hemmed and hawed for a few seconds before confessing, “Shouldn’t you be more aware of the reason than us? Arlen took to social media to spill about you and Mr. Howard, and a few
