Chapter 742 Hello, Madam President!
"Not only am I heartless, I'm also crazy. If you have the ability, then try to remove me from this position. Oh, you've always wanted to, but you're just not capable enough."
Suddenly, Samuel felt somewhat relieved. He felt lucky that despite doting on Susan for all these years, it was based on his older brother's protection of his younger sister, and not a deep emotional attachment.
The unexpected return of his “lost” sister made him feel uneasy deep down.
Soon, the Hastings family responded to the suppression from the Windsor Group brothers by "exiling" Ann, and the second son of the Hastings family faced the same suppression.
What puzzled everyone was that Samuel seemed to have no grievances against Oliver. He did not talk to the Windsor Group brothers, nor did he unite with other companies to oppose them. There was even a sense of...approval for Oliver's punitive actions.
Natalie was a bit slow to learn about the Hastings family's strange response after the fact in the program "Supermodel".
She found out about her husband's actions against the Hastings family.
The suite had two study rooms. Oliver would use one for video conferences, and when he was not in a meeting, he would always share one study room with Natalie.
Natalie peeked through the gap in the study room door. Oliver had an astonishing intuition and instantly felt Natalie's gaze.
He leaned back in his leather office chair, caught a glimpse of the sneaky figure outside through the gap, and flashed a smile. He waved his hand, signaling her to come in.
"Are you done with your meeting?" Natalie pushed the door open and walked in silently. After taking a couple of steps, she confirmed that she didn't hear any meeting sounds coming from Oliver's computer. She sighed in relief and walked over openly.
Oliver didn't say anything. Natalie was used to this type of reaction from him. She walked over on her own and asked, "I heard that you are suppressing the Hastings family... Do you know what happened at Hastings Diner?"
"I do."
Oliver and Natalie approached, with Oliver grabbing her hand and catching her off guard, causing her to sit on his lap.
"Are you worried that your actions will cause trouble for you and Arthur?" Although Natalie did not want Oliver to go to great lengths for her, it was undeniable that his domineering behavior was... particularly pleasing.
"No, I'm not." Oliver continued to embrace Natalie's waist and subtly explored her belly with his fingertips, silently sensing her abdomen.
It seemed that things were indeed different from before.
Still thin, but there was a different feeling, as if there was more strength.
Oliver felt a subtle sensation at his fingertips - here, their love gave birth to their baby.
If he said he wouldn't, then he wouldn't. Natalie didn't ask any further, as she had confidence in Oliver's abilities.
This man's power was superhuman.
"What about the Hastings family?" Natalie asked another question, "Isn't it strange that the Hastings family's reaction to your suppression seems... too calm?"
Indeed, it was strange, but Oliver had no interest in investigating.
He didn't have much interest in many things, like why Samuel would do such things.
As long as it didn't concern Natalie, he generally wasn't interested.
On the other hand... Oliver said, "Samuel is not a fool. He can maximize the losses suffered by all the companies and interests involved in this incident and transfer them to the Hastings family vampires. As long as he handles it properly, he has to thank me."
Oliver didn't go too far with things. After all... he still needed Susan's bone marrow.
Everything had to be moderate.
Natalie quickly understood Oliver's words after thinking for a while. Samuel was sometimes like a lunatic, but she had to admit that even if he was crazy, he was an extremely intelligent lunatic.
He was crazy, probably because he was too indulgent.
"Is Mrs. Windsor satisfied with this arrangement?" Oliver traced his fingertips around her long hair and asked, turning his head, "Does Mrs. Windsor have any other instructions?"
"Satisfied! No other instructions!"
He could do so much for her, so what else could she be dissatisfied with?
Natalie pondered for a moment, then leaned over, cupping Oliver's face in her hands, and gave him a kiss on his thin lips, making a "smooch" sound in the air.
"Dong!"
There was a sound of something falling to the ground.
Natalie was startled and turned her head towards the sound, only to see the conference table on Oliver's computer screen, filled with executives from RK Group.
Natalie: "..."
Executives was trying hard to force a smile.
The atmosphere was awkward for a moment.
And that "dong" just now was someone's shock at seeing the scene of Natalie "forcefully kissing" Oliver, causing their water cups to fall to the ground.
Unknown to Natalie, from the moment she knocked on the door and Oliver responded with a faint smile, the executives on the other end of the video were shocked into silence. They remained quiet until they couldn't come up with the words "Mr. Windsor saw something and suddenly burst into laughter," and Natalie's graceful figure appeared on the screen.
She was being held by Mr. Windsor, her slender waist embraced as she sat with a leg injury. The two of them appeared affectionate...
Why did they have to witness this intimate scene in the middle of a meeting?
The executives of RK Group knew that Mr. Windsor and Natalie once had a good relationship. Now, seeing how well they got along, they wondered... Didn't they get divorced and isn't Mr. Windsor still pursuing her?
Did he succeed?
"You... you all..." Natalie pointed at Oliver, then at the laptop screen, feeling her ears burn in an instant.
"You said the meeting was over..." Natalie whispered through gritted teeth in Oliver's ear, but halfway through her sentence, she suddenly realized that Oliver never said the meeting was over. It was just his appearance and silent attitude that made her assume it was finished.
Wait a minute, why does she have the feeling that Oliver played a trick on her?
With Natalie's conflicted and scrutinizing expression, a strong smile flashed in Oliver's eyes, and even the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curve.
He deliberately let Natalie come in and expose herself in front of these senior executives.
"My wife." Oliver introduced Natalie again to the dumbfounded and awkwardly smiling executives, "Can my wife sit in on the meeting?"
