Chapter 222 Who’s In Trouble

Natalie didn’t know how she managed to leave Apex Global. Sitting in the car, she felt like a lost child.

Just then, her phone vibrated.

She picked it up and noted it was an internal call from Auro Studio. Honestly, whenever she saw calls

from the internal line or from people like Zane and Karina, she couldn’t help but tense.

That was because they constantly reminded her of the dilemma she was facing.

Even though this was her second change at life, in the face of such a situation, she… felt lost!

Answering the call, she said, “Hello!”

“Can you come to the studio now?” Karina’s voice sounded urgent, making Natalie’s heart jump to her

throat.

“What’s going on?”

“It’s the Premier Garden project!”

Premier Garden Corporation?

The project with Caleb Spencer?

“What happened?”

“They need the designs urgently. You know how it is now, all our designers are…” Karina trailed off.

Natalie understood. If Premier Garden Corporation needed it, Natalie had to handle it personally.

In this short time, many good designers had left the studio, and the remaining interns were not enough to

support such a large project.

“I got it,” N

“I got it,” Natalie said.

She hung up the phone. The traffic/outside seemed chaotic, but the moment she closed her eyes and

reopened them, clarity enveloped her.

She was Natalie Walker!

Yes, Natalie Walker!

She was a woman who was given a second change in life. Now, Cedric was determined to completely.

That was all the more reason she couldn’t afford to fall.

Starting the car, she drove in the direction of Premier Garden Corporation.

When she arrived at Premier Garden Corporation, she saw Caleb’s tall figure coming out of the magnificent office building, followed by the consistently cold and stone–faced assistant.

Natalie jogged up. “Mr. Spencer!”

The man heard her voice. He halted and looked in her direction.

“You shouldn’t be here at this time, should you?” Caleb said, a hint of a smile playing at the corner of his

eyes as he observed her catching her breath.

It was rare to s

see someone smiling at her these days

As for her, she couldn’t even muster up a smile in response anymore.

She simply said, “Are you busy now? I’d like to delay you for a few minutes regarding the project.”

“Let’s go.” Caleb nodded and turned to walk back.

Natalie kept up!

the man’s strides.

In the office, the secretary poured Natalie a glass of water. Natalie took a sip, then downed half the cup.

Whenever her inner turmoil surfaced, she liked to drink water. It seemed that only in those moments

could she temporarily alleviate the pressure on her heart.

Now, the man sat across from her with crossed arms.

“Terminate the collaboration?” Caleb’s tone was somewhat serious.

Natalie put down the cup and nodded. “You’ve seen the public opinion outside. Now, whoever associates.

with me is in trouble.”

Hadn’t that shown with Irwin?

Many clients had reached out to terminate their collaborations with Auro Studios, and Natalie didn’t try to

hold on at all.

She knew that Cedric was now standing on the opposite side. He practically wanted to kill her, and Irwin was implicated because of her.

She didn’t want Premier Garden Corporation to be the same!

“Are you suggesting that your designs were the cause of the problem at the eastern suburbs site?” Caleb said sharply, and there was a vague undertone in his words.

Natalie shook her head. “No.”

“No?”

“No. It wasn’t a problem with my designs.”

“Then, was there a problem with the materials for Sylvan Gems? Did you use your authority for personal

gain?”

The man seemed to be interrogating her, but there was an obvious element of disbelief.
