Chapter 314 Meet In The Bar
In order to thank Aidan, Lauren asked him to stay for dinner.
But Aidan declined.
Clarissa didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that Aidan was a little abnormal recently.
He used to be gentle, elegant, and high-spirited, but he always frowned and looked a little depressed these days.
Clarissa saw him off, she asked with concern, "Doctor Leonard, have you been in any trouble recently? Why do I feel like you have something on your mind?"
Aidan was stunned and forced a smile.
"No."
"Is that so?"
"Yeah." He paused for a moment, suddenly thought of Natalia's pretty face and frowned slightly.
Seeing that he was unwilling to say it, Clarissa couldn't ask more. After sending him to the car, she waved her hand and watched him leave.
Time passed by quickly.
In the blink of an eye, Joy was one hundred days old.
Although Lauren didn't have many friends and relatives in Flaucford, this was a very important day of Joy. Therefore, Clarissa and Lauren both wanted to hold a grand birthday party for him.
They invited a few good friends and held a birthday party in Oriental Hotel to celebrate it.
The Spring Festival was approaching, so everyone was busy and it was hard for them to find some time, but they all went there.
Even Aidan put down his busy work in the institute and specially bought a small amusement park for Joy as a present for his one hundred-day-old birthday.
The party was held in a warm and grand way.
Aidan had to write a research report at night, so he just stayed here for half an hour and then left.
At the same time, in the bar downstairs.
Oriental Hotel was a high-end entertainment hotel. Over the tenth floor, people could enjoy various leisure projects, while there was a large bar from the first floor to the third floor.
Natalia received a message from Ray. He said that he was here and wanted to make their relationship clear.
Although Mia was driven out of the house by her that day, the Holland family still wanted to be connected with the Levine family by marriage.
Natalia felt that it was difficult to communicate with her mother. Even if she really did not want to marry Ray, the Holland family would not dare to force her. However, it was troublesome to talk about this matter again and again.
So it would be a good thing if she could reach an agreement with Ray.
Thinking like this, she came here.
Only when she got there did she know that it was Ray's birthday party.
Ray wore a fashionable hoodie and a red hairband on his head, looking raffish and frivolous.
He took a good look at her and whistled, "Oh, didn't you say that you wouldn't come? Why are you here?"
Natalia glared at him and said madly, "If I don't come, can you ask your mother not to come to my house and harass me in the future?"
Ray didn't get angry and said with a smile, "I can't guarantee that. After all, my mother just likes you wants you to be her daughter-in-law. What can I do?"
Natalia snorted coldly. Looking at his smug face, she could only wish that she could beat him severely.
Ray had turned around and walked inside. When he took two steps and saw her still standing there, he raised his eyebrows and said, "What are you doing? Come here!"
Natalia gritted her teeth and thought of what her mother had told her before she came out. Helplessly, she could only follow him.
When she walked to the seat, she found that there were many people there, including men and women.
Ray's birthday party was naturally not cold and cheerless, but they were too crazy and lively. Natalia had heard of it before, but when she saw it for the first time, she still felt surprised.
The people present were all couples and there was no single one. Natalia stood with Ray, so it was easy for people to misunderstand their relationship.
Realizing this, Natalia suddenly understood why Ray asked her to come here, and her face darkened.
They walked over. Before they sat down, someone asked, "Ray, who is she?"
Ray smirked as he held Natalia's shoulder, "My girlfriend, Natalia!"
Natalia frowned and immediately shook off his hand.
Ray was naturally aware of her rejection. He narrowed his eyes slightly and did not say anything.
Then, he introduced the group of people in front of him to Natalia one by one.
Although Natalia was expressionless, she couldn't be too cold-faced in front of so many people, so she nodded.
They only thought that Ray's girlfriend was a little unemotional and lofty, so they did not think too much and soon started to play.
Seeing this, Ray came over and said in a low voice, "Be good and pretend to be my girlfriend. If you do a good job, I will talk to you. You can rest assured that I don't have to be with you. So many girls chase after me. But you can't embarrass me in front of my friends, right?"
Natalia sneered and didn't say yes or no.
Ray touched his chin and didn't say anything. Then he turned around and played with his friends.
Natalia did not like the crazy atmosphere. Therefore, from the beginning to the end, she had been sitting in the corner alone and did not participate in any of their games.
After a long time, even Ray's friend felt that something was wrong. He pushed his arm and said in a low voice, "Hey, is she really your girlfriend? Look at her. She's so indifferent that she doesn't pay attention to us."
Ray turned his head and looked at Natalia. Seeing her sitting there with an apathetic face, he was somewhat annoyed.
His eyes turned angry as he snorted coldly, "I will get her sooner or later."
Hearing this, his friend laughed and didn't say anything else. Then he turned around and went back to play.
After a while, Ray walked to Natalia, gave her a glass of wine and said, "Since you are already here, do you have to pull a long face? Drink this!"
Natalia looked up at him, frowned and said in a deep voice, "I don't drink."
Hearing this, Ray laughed as if he had heard something strange.
"You come to the bar but don't drink. Do you think this is a children's playground?"
Natalia was not moved at all and said in a cold tone, "It was you who asked me to come. If you don't like it, you can talk to me first. After that, I'll leave and we won't disturb each other again. What do you think?"
"You!"
Ray was so annoyed that he couldn't say a word. Their conversation was heard by a middle-aged man not far away, and he sneered.
Ray glared at her angrily. Natalia didn't look at him, just sat there and played with her mobile phone.
After a long while, he felt bored, so he turned around and walked away furiously.
When he returned to his seat, the man who had sneered suddenly waved at him.
Ray walked to him and asked, "Rick, what's wrong?"
The man called Rick lifted his chin and pointed to Natalia, who was sitting in the corner, "Haven't you got her?"
Ray frowned. He didn't want Rick to laugh at him, so he snorted, "What? She is my girlfriend! We just had a quarrel a few days ago, and she is obedient to me in ordinary times."
