Chapter 722 I'll Give it Back to You If You Cry
Lilian indeed missed the whole conversation because she was chatting with her boyfriend, Lucas, and almost reported the good news of becoming an uncle to her boyfriend.
That was close!
"Corkle, why would you think that?" Natalie couldn't understand why the idea of being "pregnant" bothered her without any reason.
"My idea isn't very normal, is it?" Coker said nervously, feeling awkward. "Well, mainly because I didn't know you had a foot injury and also because you have a husband, so I naturally thought that way! As a diligent worker, I still have high expectations for the boss's offspring."
Natalie's conflicted mind was completely thrown off by Coker's words.
Coker averted his gaze.
Sure enough, Miss Watson wanted to keep her pregnancy a secret. It was fortunate that this foreign model was only guessing and didn't actually know anything, otherwise Natalie would have to find a way to make sure this person kept their mouth shut.
Lilian sighed with disappointment, "So it was fake, what a pity! Natalie, if you have a baby, it will definitely be as cute as Tina!"
She closed her eyes and imagined the baby's appearance, and then expressed her anticipation, "Ah, when it's born, I definitely want to play with it and if I make it cry, I'll give it back to you!"
Natalie: "..." Make it cry? Give it back to me... Has this girl been surfing the internet too much lately?
The party was held in a hall about a hundred meters away from the runway venue.
Natalie and the others walked out of the backstage area and saw a group of over ten people standing at the entrance.
"Natalie, over here!" Mia and the others waved happily, "We are all here, surprised or not surprised?"
"...Uh, surprised," Natalie forced a smile.
"We came to invite you to join us, do you have time?"
Mia and the others eagerly awaited Natalie's agreement.
Looking at those expectant eyes, Natalie couldn't bring herself to say "no" for a moment.
"Natalie, we have reserved the venue already," Barrett said, "I asked around and found out that the party you are attending later is quite boring. You don't need to participate, do you find it fun to be with a group of people who are ten or twenty years older than you?"
His words were indeed true. Natalie was mainly going to be there as a mascot, just going through the motions.
She rarely actively participated in networking events. These types of parties were actually platforms for relaxation and communication among professionals in the same field, and Emily Reed usually represented Natalie at these events.
But everyone else was going, so it seemed a bit unreasonable for her to be the only one not going.
Barrett had known Natalie the longest and, through the process of being mercilessly attacked by Natalie, had somewhat understood Natalie's character.
"And we invited Mr. Watson, he will be coming after his evening self-study." Barrett had an expression that said, "I wonder if you're coming or not."
"Wait." Joseph, who had been silent, suddenly spoke up and asked Natalie, "Did she come?"
The others were puzzled and didn't understand who "she" referred to.
But Natalie knew.
"No," Natalie said. "She will come during Tycoon City."
Joseph nodded, turned around, and headed straight back to the villa where they were staying, saying, "I'm not going to the party."
Well, with both Joseph and Natalie opting out of attending, Natalie wouldn't be a target anymore.
Besides, it was understandable for Natalie and Joseph, being fellow Americans, to take this opportunity to visit relatives and friends.
Natalie arrived as expected, and before leaving, she saw Nora's enraged face, which was quite satisfying.
Nora had initially intended to establish good relationships with these influential children of Paykston, but she had no idea why things had turned out this way!
Why were these people all blindly idolizing Natalie, the famous international socialite, while ignoring her?
No, it wasn't just ignoring her; they also ostracized and mocked her!
A bunch of blind fools!
"Do you have time to play today?" Natalie hadn't seen Cadence for a long time, and she never expected her to come.
Being a pilot sounded cool, but it was a busy job. In addition to monthly fixed tasks, pilots had to continuously take various exams.
"I just happen to be on vacation," Captain Ning, who had just finished his flying mission this afternoon, lied without any change in his expression.
