Turning around, she attempted to leave.

“Can you ignore what I just said? I was joking.”

Kent said, obviously flustered by her rejection Natalie bit her lips to stifle her laughter as she thought, “Why does he look so silly?

The two of them walked into the coffeehouse. While they were in the coffeehouse, Natalie paid more attention to her phone than

Kent even though they were sitting opposite each other, so he said, “Hey, I am sitting right here, but you have been checking your phone since we got here.That’s rather rude, you know?”

When she heard that, Natalie raised her head and smiled, “I am so sorry I was just checking in with my husband.”

The disappointment in Kent’s voice was obvious as he asked, “So you are on good terms?”

“Of course.”

Natalie’s excitement was obvious in her voice and she didn’t realize she had answered without any hesitation Kent’s eyebrows were raised as he ordered two lattes before handing the menu back to the waiter.

Suddenly he asked Natalie, “Who has been helping you all this while? Who’s the person to you?”

Natalie bit her lower lip and asked, “What do you mean? It’s just a rumor, and there’s no need to take it seriously.”

“I really think someone is backing you because someone brought Emani down right after you were cyberbullied. That was pretty obvious, wasn’t it?”

“No.I think someone else had been plotting against her, and they just took that opportunity to bring her down,” Natalie said with a sigh.

“It could’ve also been a reporter who just wanted the spotlight.” Kent realized Natalie was really naive.

He pressed his elbows against the table and sat up as he said, “You are really simple, aren’t you? If there’s something I know about the entertainment industry, it is that ordinary paparazzi will never get their hands on so many big secrets on one star.Even if they do, they would usually let it out immediately for their readers to enjoy. However, for someone to have found out so many of

Emani’s secrets in such a short time, he must be a big shot.”
