Natalie didn’t like sharing her thoughts with strangers. Besides, she didn’t have a good opinion of Kent, so she thought it was better to keep her worries to herself.

Kent drummed his fingers on the table. Just as he was about to speak, Natalie’s phone blared in her bag.

“Sorry, I should answer the phone.” She tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and picked up the phone from her bag.

“Why is Sebastian calling me now?” She frowned.

Natalie’s anger was still flickering inside her.

Talking to Sebastian was the last thing she wanted to do now.She picked up the phone and said coldly, “I’m having dinner with a client.I’ll call you back later.”

She then hung up the phone before Sebastian could say a word.

The busy tone that came after his wife’s statement made Sebastian’s face darken.He didn’t expect her to react like this.His fingers tightened around the phone as his heart sank.

“Can’t you drive faster?” he asked in a low, but impatient voice.

The atmosphere in the car instantly became tense. This question made the driver’s palms sweaty all of a sudden.

He sensed Sebastian’s mood and didn’t dare to disobey him.He stepped on the gas and maneuvered through the vehicles on the road.

Meanwhile, in the restaurant, a waiter just served the dishes at the table of Natalie and Kent.

The tantalizing aroma wafted into their nostrils.

The colors of the food made them look so tempting.

However, none of these moved Natalie.She didn’t have an appetite for it due to her fury.She just kept forking the steak on the plate in a bid to vent her anger.

“Ouch! That hurts!” Kent cried out, holding his chest.
