Darren frowned and secretly swallowed. He said, "Who?"
Howard blinked and then suddenly stepped back, revealing a petite woman who popped out and threw herself into Darren'sThis content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
artis.
"Darren! I finished the program and came back in advance!" Vivian said sweetly. "Are you surprised?"
Darren lowered his eyes to look at Vivian with a hint of disappointment flashing in them.
He pulled Vivian out of his arms and responded perfunctorily, "Yeah."
Vivian held his arm and said, "I was gonna tell you earlier, but then I got a call from Howard and decided to give you a surprise. Darren s said. "Sure." Vivian
à said. "I was away for three days to record the programe. Did you miss me?" "Have a seat first." Darren didn't answer her question. Howard didn't notice anything wrong at all. He smiled brightly and said, "Alright, everyone's here now! I announce that my Love Strategy Meeting begins now! To ensure my lifelong happiness, you all must come up with great ideas!"
Darren sat down and glanced around the private room while Howard spoke. He didn't see Natalie. He thought, 'She isn't here for this meeting? Who did she dress up so beautifully for, then?"
Then Darren finally remembered that Natalie had sugar daddies. His face darkened even more. He thought, 'Her sugar daddies couldn't help her at all when she was in trouble. What's the use of them? She should let me be her sugar daddy instead "Darren?" Vivian called him softly from the side. "What are you thinking about? Why are you lost in thought?"
Darren came back to his senses and casually replied, "Nothing."
Vivian smiled and said, "I didn't expect Howard to fall for Ms. Xavier. Seeing how romantic he is, if I were Ms. Xavier, I'd be moved, too!" "Really?" Darren frowned. "Are you women all so shallow?"
Vivian said, "How is that shallow? We all appreciate the visible effort, It makes us feel cherished." "Humph." Darren sneered. He thought, "All the things I've done for Natalie secretly were far more romantic than what Howard is planning, like sending flowers and setting off fireworks. That's what a mature man is like. I did something but I didn't say that, because I was afraid that Natalie would love me too much, which would be a ha** for me.
"But Natalie that idiot won't be fooled by Howard's low-level romantic moves, will she? Should I find a chance to slightly hint at all the things I did for her? Not to make her touch or love me more, but just purely to show that bumpkin what real romance is. She shouldn't be touched easily. Right. That's it
At 8 p.m., in the private room on the top floor of Glory Hotel. A bodyguard pushed open the door of Room 666, and Natalie walked in slowly.
Oscar and Zaiden, who was in charge of Smooth Skin, were already in the private room, along with Tessa.
The atmosphere wasn't great. Natalie said that they should be there by seven and not be late. Zaiden deliberately came half an hour late, but Natalie wasn't there yet.
Zaiden wanted to awe Natalie, but the person who needed to apologize even got there later than him.
Zaiden's plan failed, so he vented all his anger at Oscar.
Oscar's whole body was covered with sweat, and his expression showed how sorry he was.
Zaiden scolded Oscar for half an hour contemptuously.

was sitting between them. She poured Zaiden some wine as an apology and motioned at him, "Mr. Sampson, don't be angry. Look, Ms. Xavier has arrived" When Zaiden saw Natalie, he was amazed at once. He thought. She even looks more gorgeous in reality!
If I can take her down tonight, I'll have something to brag about for the rest of my life.
But why did she bring bodyguards with her?
How am I gonna make her drunk and do something to her?"
Zaiden slammed the table angrily. "Ms. Xavier, you're really something, aren't you? Do you really have to bring bodyguards with you when you come to see me? Am I gonna do anything bad to you? Do you know the etiquette or not? Are you really here to apologize? How could you be an hour late? Mr. Pierce, is this the sincerity you talked about?!"
Zaiden fired off a series of questions, trying to awe Natalie first. Then it would be easier for him to dominate the situation later.
Oscar wiped the sweat off his forehead and said with an awkward smile, "No, no. I'm sure Ms. Xavier just had something urgent to deal with"
"Yeah, I I was late on purpose. So what?" However, Natalie suddenly interrupted Oscar, making Zaiden even angrier.
Zaiden pretended to stand up angrily. "Alright! Natalie, you've got guts! If you don't kneel down and apologize to me today, we'll see you at the court!" Zaiden's r
Facing rage, Natalie just raised her eyes to glance at him. Then a bodyguard behind her immediately moved the chair and respectfully invited her to sit down. Natalie crossed her arms and said casually, Till give you a chance. Kneel down and beg me. Then I might show some mercy and let off Smooth Skin." "Excuse me?" Zalde me?" Zaiden almost jumped up. "What the hell did you say? You want me to kneel and beg you? Natalie, have you lost your mind?!" "Aren't you here to apologize to me tonight?" Natalie tilted her head and looked at Zaiden with a faint smile. "Think it over. I'll only give you one chance." Zaiden said, "You!" Natalie
said, "Kneel down, beg me, and drop the lawsuit. Then Smooth Skin will be fine, and you can still be the manager. Otherwise, things will get ugly."
Zaiden burst into laughter angrily at her threatening words. "How ridiculous! You're threatening me? Who the hell do you think you are? Our Smooth Skin is such a large company. Why would it collapse because of you? Natalie, stop pi**ing me off Just apologize to the "Mr. Sampson, calm down, please." "Tessa tried to ease the tension between both sides with a smile.
She poured a glass of wine and stood up. She walked toward Natalie and handed it to her. "Ms. Xavier, drink this and calm down. We re all on the same programs and sharing the same room. As the live streamer for Smooth Skin. Fin really awkward

between you two. Ms. Xavier, please do me a favor. Let's talk calmly, shall we?"
Zaiden looked at the glass and thought Tessa was really considerate.
As long as Natalie drank that glass of wine, they would have a good time tonight.
Zaiden also pushed, "Natalie, don't be ungratefull Drink this and show me your sincerity!"
Natalie sneered. She pushed Tessa's hand away without taking the glass.
Tessa blinked in confusion. "Ms. Xavier?"
"Tessa, going against me won't end well," Natalie warned her.
Tessa shrugged innocently. "I'm not going against you. I'm trying to make peace! Come on, just drink this, Ms. Xavier. Let's make friends with each other."
Natalie silently looked at Tessa for a few seconds, and then suddenly raised her eyebrows. Then she took the glass from Tessa with a faint smile.
