A Cue For Love

Chapter 1044 Meeting Geert For The First Time

Turning over her shoulder, Helma instructed her housekeeper, “Keep the jewelry safe until the day of the banquet.” “Understood!”

Helma was extremely satisfied with the jewelry Natalie had customized for her. Back to her enthusiastic self, she held Natalie’s arm and said, “Natalie, it’s almost time for dinner. Stay and have dinner with me.”

Natalie wasn’t interested in food, but she had to accept Helma’s invitation, as the latter was too welcoming.

“Sure.” “I’ll have to ask my housekeeper to prepare her signature dishes!” Helma beamed, leading Natalie out of the private cinema and into the brightly lit hall.

Both ladies chatted for a bit. Soon, an immaculately dressed middle-aged man walked into the hall. He was no longer young and wasn’t that handsome, but his rich experience gave him an imperious air. It was clear that he was the head of the family.

Seeing him, Helma stood up and greeted, “Father.” Geert gave Helma a curt nod before his gaze landed on the young lady beside his daughter. His first impression was that the young lady was a beauty.
