Chapter 607

Ameer didn’t dare do anything that might provoke Natalie again. He was only putting on an act to please Natalie, but he hadn’t expected her to be so fierce. She didn’t even bat an eye when she saw him hit Kathie.

“I apologize, Mrs. Larson. You must have been frightened just now. That bitch, Kathie, is just so loathsome. I wouldn’t have said those awful words if she bewitched me. I’m sorry for showing you such a disgraceful sight.” Natalie merely smiled. She said nothing and immediately averted her gaze to look around the venue.

Not willing to miss this opportunity, Ameer proceeded to fawn over her. “By the way, Mrs. Larson, how did you come to know about my company? Has Mr. Larson been talking about it a lot?”

But Natalie was quick to dash his hopes. “My husband doesn’t talk about work stuff with me.”

Ameer forced a smile. “I heard that you’re more focused on designing now that you’ve gained some renown of your own. Others said that you barely ask about the business affairs of the Larson family or the White family. It seems that they are right.”

His attempt at a conversation was obvious. Natalie nodded coldly at him. “You’re a talkative one, aren’t you, Mr. Ortiz?”

Ameer found himself trembling under her sharp gaze. He lowered his head and made a half-hearted excuse to leave. He was so frazzled that he didn’t even see the waiter approaching behind him, carrying a tray of drinks.

The two men had nearly bumped into each other, and the wine glasses shook dangerously on the tray.

Ameer snapped, glaring at the waiter. Some of the red wine
