Chapter 508

Toward the end of the party, Derek was chatting with the models who came to accost him. Out of the corner of his eye, however, he noticed that some women were hogging Natalie as well. He suddenly had the feeling that something was not right.

“Excuse me. I need to go and check on a friend.” He nodded apologetically to the models and headed in Natalie’s direction.

Kathie acted quickly and stood in Derek’s way. “Have you lost all common sense? Natalie is a welcome guest here. Why do you have to meddle in her affairs? Don’t tell me you actually fancy her.”

Derek looked her up and down. “It looks like you brought a few extra outfits tonight. Aren’t you afraid that I’ll accidentally spill some wine on you again?”

“Derek!” Kathie glared at him, her eyes filled with grievance. “Are you having fun bullying me like this? I just want to dance with you.”

“As you can see, I’m currently unavailable.” Derek made to walk past her, but Kathie stopped him yet again.

“You embarrassed me in front of all those people. Even so, I’m not mad at you. Can’t you even grant me such a simple request?” Her voice had turned soft, and tears welled up in her eyes.

After mulling it over for a while, Derek did think that his behavior from earlier was a bit out of line.

Besides, it would be uncharacteristic for him to refuse a woman’s invitation, and a beautiful one at that.
