Chapter 236 Are You Teaching Me How to Do Things
He definitely didn't dare to say anything; after all, Yves was his future brother-in-law.
He should be polite!
He flashed a warm, bright smile. "Don't worry; this won't happen again. I'll keep my admiration to myself."
Victor's frown deepened, his gaze dangerously sharp.
Yves couldn't take it anymore, goosebumps all over.
"Shut up!"
Natalie turned around and left without a word.
The band Yves hired was top-notch, and their live performance was captivating.
Lots of people were dancing, totally lost in the music.
Some were chatting in a smaller banquet hall nearby.
Hearing the chatter, Natalie walked over.
Just as she reached the door, someone grabbed her wrist and pulled her into the small banquet hall. "You're here. Come on."
Natalie frowned slightly; it was Clara.
She hadn't invited them, so why were they here?
Of course, seeing Mary should've tipped her off that Clara and Mary wouldn't miss a chance to network with the elite.
'People you dislike always find ways to make you dislike them even more!' Natalie thought.
She struggled but didn't want to make a scene.
Clara held her hand, warmly looking at a few CEOs across from them.
"Natalie, you're beautiful and capable. We should collaborate more in the future."
The CEOs, of course, wouldn't disrespect Natalie.
They all came forward to toast.
Natalie took the chance to break free from Clara.
She casually grabbed a glass of red wine from a nearby waiter and politely clinked glasses with them.
The CEOs eagerly downed their drinks.
Natalie just raised her glass, not planning to drink.
But Clara wouldn't let it go, pushing her, "Natalie, drink up. How can you disrespect the CEOs? Sitting in the president's seat of Clark Group, you can't act like a child! In business, you can't refuse a toast; it's so impolite."
The CEOs exchanged glances, clearly stunned by Clara's words.
With Natalie's status, even offering a toast was a huge honor for them.
Natalie's gaze darkened slightly, looking sideways at Clara.
Her voice was cold. "Are you teaching me how to do my job?"
Clara stiffened slightly, not expecting Natalie to disrespect her in front of so many people and dare to question her.
Not holding her accountable for the last incident was already generous, but Natalie was truly arrogant!
Clara was trembling with anger. Suppressing her rage, her words became sarcastic.
"I'm doing this for your good. After all, I'm your elder. What's wrong with a family member saying a few words?"
This event was attended by Oliver, who brought her along.
It was to announce her status to everyone.
"Elder?"
Natalie sneered. What kind of elder was she?
She was really giving herself too much credit.
Clara was provoked by Natalie's tone.
All these years, she had been by Oliver's side without any official status, enduring silently. Was it easy for her?
Living under the false title of Oliver's wife, she was always on edge, afraid of being exposed as not part of the Clark family.
All these grievances were thanks to them!
Why did Natalie look down on her so much?
Her face turned pale, and just as she was about to argue, she saw Oliver and Ulysses walking over.
Immediately, tears welled up in her eyes, and she turned to bury her face in Oliver's chest.
"What happened?" Oliver frowned, glancing at Natalie and the others.
Clara sobbed, complaining, "This life is unbearable. I just saw Natalie toasting insincerely and was afraid people would say the Clark family is impolite. But Natalie got upset. After all these years, am I not part of the Clark family? In her eyes, I don't exist as an elder at all!"
