Chapter 516 Wendy's Call
Gavin was staring hard.
He turned to his assistant, "Who's that actress? How come I've never seen her before?"
The assistant replied, "Looks like she's a newbie named Natalie, one of Mindy's finds."
Gavin nodded and grinned. "Mindy's got a good eye." He kept his eyes on Natalie until she sat at one of the back tables. Then he told his assistant, "Find a way to get Natalie to my office. I wanna check out this newcomer myself."
The assistant smirked knowingly. "Got it."
Natalie got back to her seat, and Heather handed her a phone. "Natalie, your phone rang."
Natalie glanced at it; it was a message from Adrian.
Adrian: [Meet me in Room 09.]
Natalie stood up. "Push back my interview."
Heather seemed to know what was up. She knew Natalie had a powerful backer, but she didn't know who. As her agent, she didn't ask too many questions.
She trusted Natalie completely.
"Okay." Heather nodded.
A newbie delaying an interview could get trashed by the gossip rags.
She quickly called Yvonne and went with her to handle it, slipping some cash to the media folks. "Natalie's got a stomachache and isn't feeling well. She'll need a bit before she can do the interview."
With enough cash and Heather's charm, the media folks naturally played along.
Natalie walked into Room 09.
Adrian pulled her into a hug. "Who told you to dress like this?"
"Don't you like it?" Natalie twirled around. In the dim light, his Adam's apple bobbed.
She looked too good, and he couldn't stand it.
They made out by the window for a bit before Adrian's phone rang.
Adrian checked the caller ID.
His eyes darkened, but he didn't answer right away.
Natalie caught the name on the caller ID out of the corner of her eye. It was Wendy.
She'd heard rumors about Adrian and Wendy before.
Knowing Adrian, if it was just a work call, he wouldn't hesitate to answer it in front of her.
The fact that he didn't answer meant one thing: he didn't want to take it in front of her.
Women's intuition was always spot on. Adrian was about to leave, but Natalie wrapped her arms around his neck, stood on tiptoe, and kissed him. She twirled around and pushed him onto the sofa.
Adrian's voice was rough. "Natalie, I have stuff to do."
"I have something to discuss with you too," Natalie said in a low, seductive voice, gently biting his Adam's apple.
Adrian's eyes darkened. He clenched his fists. "Natalie!"
He flipped her over, pinning her down, taking control. The phone fell to the ground, still ringing, but he ignored it.
Half an hour later, Natalie walked out of the room.
Her clothes were mostly intact, just a bit wrinkled.
She called Heather to start the follow-up interviews.
Heather noticed the wrinkles on her clothes and seemed to get the picture.
Natalie took out a lipstick and touched up her makeup.
She started the interviews with several media outlets.
The questions were mostly the same.
The most common one was whether she'd be starring in Oscar's new film.
Natalie didn't give a straight answer.
She just smiled and said, "Stay tuned."
