Chapter 60 You Can Keep It If You Like

To Rebecca, her son was the most outstanding person in the world. Also, the position of the future matriarch of the Johnson family was something all the women in Verde City coveted.

And now, Natalie’s words had left her face red with anger.

‘Don’t you want it? Don’t you want to be with Ced?” Rebecca asked.

“It was he who begged me. Have you forgotten?” Natalie replied.

“You…” Rebecca was furious!

Natalie’s complete lack of respect and her willingness to talk back made Rebecca unsure of how to respond. She used to be able to vent her anger on Natalie, but now she couldn’t even say a word!

Rebecca seethed with anger, but Natalie remained unfazed.

“So, why did you summon me?”

Rebecca had even used Bianca to threaten Natalie, which indicated how furious the former was.

Slam!

Rebecca turned and threw a document folder directly in front of Natalie. Natalie raised an eyebrow and

looked at her but made no move to pick it up.

Rebecca angrily asked, “Tell me, what’s the deal with the eastern suburbs project?”

“Don’t you already know? Why bother asking again?”

It turned out to be about the eastern suburbs project.

The Johnson family had its people involved in every business, even with Cedric in charge. If something

happened within the company, Rebecca would be one of the first to know.

She knew that Natalie had worked with Irwin to submit the design draft for the eastern suburbs project.

The knowledge only fueled her anger further when she discovered that Cedric’s defeat had been at their

hands.

Rebecca glared at Natalie, her eyes burning with fury, She raised her hand to slap Natalie!

Natalie couldn’t react fast enough to avoid Rebecca’s hand, and her head snapped to the side from the
