Chapter 378 I Chose You
At that moment, Gabriel panicked.
Natalie and Robert didn't know each other before, but why did Robert hand over such a big project to Natalie?
It wasn't about the lost project; Kensington Group's various businesses spanned across all industries.
Although this project was large, it was just a drop in the bucket for Gabriel.
He would rather not have this collaboration than hear that Robert had any thoughts about Natalie.
Natalie was also momentarily stunned, feeling as if she were dreaming.
Yet Robert wasn't joking at all.
She was very puzzled.
But she remained calm on the surface, showing no signs of losing composure.
Could it be because of Mike?
Robert said a few brief words to conclude, and everyone gradually left.
The banquet ended just like that, simply and shockingly.
What remained were Natalie and Gabriel.
Natalie wanted to get to the bottom of things, and Gabriel had no intention of leaving her behind.
Robert looked at the two of them and smiled.
"Alright, Ms. Clark must have many questions. I'm not just saying this about the project; I'll have someone follow up with Clark Group."
"I don't understand. Why did you choose Clark Group?"
Natalie asked bluntly. The people sent to contact Robert before had all been sent back.
Why did he suddenly agree now?
Robert paused, pondering slightly.
"It's not that I chose Clark Group; I chose you."
Robert looked at her with undisguised admiration and warmth.
That warmth was pure, without any interest or calculation.
Natalie was taken aback. "Is it because I helped Mike at the amusement park?"
Other than that, she couldn't think of any other reasons.
Robert smiled, "Of course not."
How could Mike let himself be in danger?
Gabriel looked at Robert, his eyes filled with suppressed emotions, leaving only a chilling coldness.
His voice was hoarse and low. "I also want to know, Mr. Williams, why do you treat Natalie differently?"
Robert paused, giving Gabriel a complex look.
"I thought Mr. Kensington would understand."
Gabriel frowned. "Understand what?"
"Originally, this project was intended for Kensington Group, but Ms. Clark appeared, and she is more suitable."
Robert said, standing up and calling over a bodyguard. After saying a few words, the bodyguard hurried away.
"Please wait a moment." Robert smiled.
After a while, the bodyguard returned with a photo album, handing it to Robert with both hands.
Natalie and Gabriel were both puzzled. What was this about?
Robert unhurriedly opened it, took out two photos, and handed one to Natalie and one to Gabriel.
When Natalie saw the photo in her hand, she instantly trembled, her body stiffening.
It was a scene that only appeared in dreams.
Three years ago, on the streets of Eldoria, during that rampant looting and killing, she was unfortunately caught in it.
Everyone was running, shouting, and crying for help.
Bullets whizzed by, and one never knew who in the crowd might suddenly throw a bomb.
Natalie just wanted to run to a safe place, but when she saw a blond boy standing on the street, only about five years old, she suddenly changed direction.
The moment she lunged towards him, a bomb exploded nearby, as if to shatter everything.
At that moment, she thought it was all over, but a rock-solid chest suddenly shielded her.
She was unharmed, but he left covered in blood.
She saw his face clearly, a face she would never dare to forget.
