Once Chad explained the situation, Ben instantly told the driver to take him to Tate Industries.

Natalie was slightly surprised when she saw Ben.

"Mr. Schaffer, to what do I owe the pleasure?" She set her work aside and stepped out of her desk. "Do you want something to drink?" "Nothing." A cold smile appeared on his face. "Natalie, you should know why I'm here, right?" She watched as the smile faded from his face and realized that there was no point for her to fake ignorance.

"I can guess." Natalie led him to the couch to sit. "This is about last night, right? I can explain." "Sure. Explain away." Ben sat down casually and stared at her.

She lowered her gaze thoughtfully for a few moments and said, "My cousin cto Aryadelle to work after graduating. My aunt remindedover and over again to look after her. I reminded her right away when she becLayla's class teacher that Layla hatesand told her to not take the job. Not only did she not listen, but she has also taken the initiative to get closer to Layla by offering to tutor her." "You and your cousin are two independent individuals. So long as Layla doesn't hate her the way she hates you, you shouldn't have interfered." "Mr. Schaffer, you don't understand. My cousin's situation is slightly more complicated than that. It's fine that she wants to tutor Layla, but she brought Layla and Elliot's bodyguard to her apartment. That's hardly appropriate. My aunt has already arranged a match for my cousin, you see," she explained with resignation. " If I fail to control my cousin, my aunt will blme for it." "Oh, so you are concerned that your cousin will fall in love with the bodyguard, then?" He questioned.

"... It doesn't matter if there's a possibility of that but allowing strange men into her apartment i ridiculous! My aunt's side of the family has always been strict, eln ?c">LQ = there would be consequences if she was here." "Natalie, is that the reason why you told your cousin that Elliot is dead?" Ben asked. "Where did you hear that he's dead? Did you see it with your own eyes or have you heard it from someone else?" Natalie shook her head frantically. "That just cout the wrong way. I was too frustrated and accused my cousin of trying to seduce Elliot by getting close to Layla-" "You think that of her because that's what you did," Ben said angrily.

"Natalie, even if you were mad at the time, you shouldn't have cursed Elliot the way you did! I am extremely disappointed in you, but since you've already signed the contract, we will follow the terms. If you fail to meet the target three years from now, you are leaving Tate Industries!" Natalie's expression darkened, and her face flushed as she breathed heavily. Ben sat for a while and left when he realized Natalie was not going to say anything else.

Rage took over her expression when the door closed.

Natalie clenched her fists and thought, " This is all Leah's fault. I wouldn't have said the wrong thing if it wasn't for her! Now Ben is suspecting me. One more mistake and they are going to work against me." Frustrated and annoyed, she immediately called her aunt.

"Auntie, why don't you make a trip to Aryadelle? I think Leah is in a rebellious stage now. She hasn't replied to my message since lastet night. I told her to stay away from Elliot's bodyguard and it's like she didn't hear a word I said. If they really start dating, no man will be willing to marry her!" Natalie refused to let Leah enjoy her life while Natalie herself was suffering. She called her aunt to fan the fire so that her aunt could cand take Leah back to Bridgedale.
