Celestial Queen: Revenge Is Sweet When You’re A Zillionaire Heiress

Chapter 1526:

Nathaniel’s hand, which had been in motion, paused mid-air. His eyes fell on Harlee as her nonchalant dining continued, and his smile tightened.

Nathaniel had assumed Harlee was merely making the recruits sweat it out before eventually agreeing. He hadn’t anticipated her outright refusal.

Without a word, Harlee’s glance conveyed her awareness of Nathaniel’s assumptions, causing his mustache to twitch slightly. Harlee clearly knew what he was thinking, and she was purposely teasing him.

Rhys, peeling a crab, looked up at Nathaniel. He was accustomed to Nathaniel’s usually domineering style and was somewhat amused by Nathaniel’s visible embarrassment at Harlee’s stance.

Nathaniel shot Rhys a stern look, resentful of Rhys’ enjoyment over his discomfort.

Nathaniel almost wished he could discipline Rhys with his cane for the slight.

As tension rose, Belinda said, “Let’s focus on the meal, everyone. The dishes are getting cold.”

However, Belinda knew well that the table’s heating feature meant the food would stay warm. Slightly embarrassed by her unnecessary reminder, she quickly served more dishes to Harlee to smooth over the moment. Harlee savored the meal with relaxed enjoyment.
