Turning Of The Tide

Chapter 16
The next day, Natalie woke up early and prepared breakfast for herself, without considering Trevon’s portion.
During the rush hour, the roads in Athana were extremely congested. It made Natalie miss her black motorcycle dearly.
After 15 minutes, the car hadn’t even passed a single traffic light, remaining motionless. Impatient and frustrated, she took out a cigarette from her pocket. Then she placed it on her pale red lips, lit it with a lighter, and held the cigarette butt between her long, slender fingers. She was exhaling smoke as she waited.
Then she felt more comfortable. She opened the car window, allowing the cold wind to rush in, which cleared her mind to
some extent.
Coincidentally, this captivating and enchanting posture caught the attention of Hackett, who was waiting in the car next to Natalie’s. He initially thought it was his good friend Edward returning. So after checking the license plate, Hackett planned to greet him through the window.
But to his surprise, it was an attractive woman in the driver’s seat. Intrigued, Hackett couldn’t help but wonder if she was Edward’s girlfriend. If not, he would ask Edward to introduce her to himself.
Being a man of action, Hackett curiously opened his contact list to find Edward’s number.
A few seconds later, the call connected. And then he teasingly asked, “Mr. Landor, where are you?”
A calm and warm voice came from the other side. Edward replied, “Mr. Blackwell, what’s the occasion for calling me so early? You’re not with your girl?”
Hackett kept his gaze fixed on the woman in the sports car without blinking. Then he said to Edward, “Oh. I was just thinking about you.”
“Go ahead. What’s the matter?” Edward asked. He didn’t think Hackett had so much free time on his hands to call him.
“I just wanted to ask who’s driving your sports car today. Is it your new girlfriend?” Hackett inquired, trying to probe.
“What? What sports car?” Edward was completely puzzled.
However, his mind quickly processed the situation. If it was Sherri driving the car, Hackett wouldn’t have made this call. If it was his mother, that was even more unlikely. Because she had her own driver and didn’t drive sports cars. The only person. who had a good relationship with Sherri was Natalie. So it could be reasonably concluded that the one driving today was Natalie.
“Just a friend,” Edward replied.
“Oh. So she’s a friend of yours. I originally thought she was your girlfriend. Since she’s just a friend, could you please introduce her to me?” Hackett asked. He thought that as long as she wasn’t Edward’s girlfriend, he could still make a move.
Edward, who was working in his office, stopped what he was doing and furrowed his brows. Then he said, “Don’t have any ideas about her.” His tone carried a warning.
