Chapter 93
Natalie rubbed her eyes and yawned.
After freshening up in the bathroom, she picked up a piece of bread and turned to leave.
“I’m going to the company now.” Sebastian put on his jacket and followed her.
He patted her shoulder and ushered her out.
“I’ll walk you out.”Natalie looked up at him.
Seeing his handsome face, she lowered her head and smiled.
As soon as she arrived at the company, Natalie saw Gerda finishing her sandwich in a hurry.
“The meeting is about to begin.Gosh, I’m going to be late.”
“Don’t we have ten more minutes left?”
Natalie smiled and walked to Tiffany’s office.
Then, she submitted all the designs she had finished last night.
“I didn’t expect you to be so fast,” Tiffany teased.
The meeting commenced at ten in the morning, as per schedule.
All the designs submitted were piled up on Tiffany’s table.
“Well, I checked all the designs you guys have submitted.Everyone has made great progress.”
Tiffany was wearing a red slip dress.Her gaze became sharp as she looked at the designers in the conference room.
“Well, during the process, something unpleasant has happened.I’ve said this before, and I’m saying it again: our Larson Group only encourages healthy competition.If you want to defeat your fellow designers, resort to your strength and skills. We don’t entertain people who play dirty tricks.”
Many designers who had worked overtime that evening had seen that Natalie’s laptop was splashed with coffee.
And those who weren’t present during the scene had heard it from their colleagues.Allin all, everyone present knew who Tiffany was talking about.
They all unanimously turned in the same direction Kaya clenched her fingers and lowered her head.Her face flushed with embarrassment and rage.
After the meeting, everyone began to gossip about the incident in private.
“Kaya is doomed this time.She has left such a bad impression on Tiffany.Her future here seems bleak.”
“That’s right.Now that Natalie has submitted her designs on time, there is absolutely no hope for Kaya to win the competition.I’m curious to find out what she’s going to do next.”
Kaya was exasperated.She deliberately bumped against Natalie as she stormed out of the room.
Natalie didn’t want to waste her time arguing with the woman, so she returned to her desk and continued with her work.
“Has the company given you a new laptop?” Gerda craned her head and eyed Natalie with curiosity.
“Wow, it looks like an expensive one. I envy you.”
“It’s because my previous laptop was splashed with coffee. There’s nothing to be envious of.I lost all the information I had on my old laptop.it may take forever to restore the data today.”
Natalie sighed as she propped her chin in the palm of her hand.
Natalie didn’t leave until midnight.
All her colleagues had left by then.
The bright streetlights dotted the beautiful city at night.
From the Larson Group building, Natalie had a clear view of the entire city.She walked into the elevator, staring at her phone and checking new messages.
As the door closed, Natalie realized a man was also inside with his back to her.Her eyes widened when she looked at him.
The man had an eerie resemblance to Sebastian.
Natalie rubbed her eyes.She felt she was confused after working hard all day.The man was wearing an expensive suit.
“Why would Sebastian come here in an expensive suit? she thought.NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
‘It’s probably Brandon.He looks a lot like Sebastian”
Natalie squinted her eyes.But unfortunately, she couldn’t see his face from behind.
In the elevator, Sebastian nervously bounced on his feet.
Five minutes ago, when he walked out of his office and was about to take the exclusive elevator, he saw the workers were still repairing it.
Yesterday, Sebastian had asked Garrett to cut off the electricity supply in the Larson Group building for an entire day.
Unexpectedly, something went wrong with his exclusive elevator.It stopped working even after the power was restored.
The maintenance team came to repair it in the morning and hadn’t finished working yet.
Sebastian had no choice but to take the common elevator.
It was already midnight, so he didn’t think he would bump into any workers.
However, just as he arrived at the floor of the design department, the elevator stopped.
Sebastian was taken aback when the door opened, and Natalie entered.
He shivered and immediately turned his back to her.
Fortunately, Natalie was staring at the phone when she entered the elevator, so she didn’t notice him.
Natalie guessed it was Brandon.
The first thought that came to her mind was to get out of the elevator.
However, the door closed, trapping her there.
Subconsciously, Natalie wanted to press the open button.But she was already in the elevator and felt it would be impolite to leave now.She had no choice but to take the elevator with Brandon.Fortunately, the two would only have to spend a minute or two together.
The elevator was quiet, and the sound of her breathing amplified with every passing second.
Considering it would be rude to ignore his presence, Natalie decided to greet him.She glanced at his back and said, “Good evening, Mr.Larson.”
Her voice was barely above a whisper.
“Hmm.” Sebastian gave her a cursory nod.He deliberately lowered his voice to make sure Natalie didn’t recognize him.
Natalie frowned.She felt his voice wasn’t as pleasant as Sebastian’s.
It looked like he was speaking in an artificial voice to make him superior to others.
Sebastian would sometimes hold Natalie in his arms and whisper sweet words into her ear that would make her heart tremble.
However, Brandon‘s voice was flat and rude.
Thinking about Sebastian made Natalie miss him even more.The man remained silent and didn‘t bother to even look at her.
Natalie found that Brandon was totally different from what she thought he should be.He often took the initiative to talk to her online.
But now, he didn’t even bat an eyelid at her.
But on second thought, his aloofness seemed justifiable.
After all, he owned the Larson Group while Natalie was a mere designer there.
This was probably how a president would talk to his workers.
The elevator fell silent again.
Natalie took out her phone to check the time.It was already midnight, but she hadn’t gone home yet.She wondered why Sebastian hadn’t texted or called her.
‘Is he still busy working in the convenience store?* As Natalie thought about him, she glanced at Brandon. The man was tall.His broad shoulders, straight posture, and firm back were similar to Sebastian‘s.He was dressed in an expensive suit that clung to his perfect, muscular frame.
Perhaps Brandon also liked running and working out.
