Chapter 119

Natalia stood rooted to the spot, silent.

Her gaze fixed on the girl beside Hamilton, the message clear as day.

Aren’t you here for some fun too? She mused.

At that moment, the girl was shooting daggers at Natalia with her eyes.

“Mr. Fowler, who is this?” she asked.

Hamilton didn’t respond to her question. Instead, he let his icy stare slowly travel over Natalia, sharp as a blade. After what felt like an eternity, he finally turned to glance at the girl sitting next to him.

“Leave.”

She was taken aback by his blunt command. “Mr. Fowler, what do you mean? I-”

“Get out! Don’t you understand English?”

The girl’s face turned pale as she stood up, a look of hurt on her face, and walked out.

Once she was gone, Hamilton finally spoke. “Come here.”

Natalia didn’t move. She had no desire to sit anywhere near him. Thankfully, Hamilton didn’t insist. He let out a cold snort, stood up, and approached Natalia, then turned his piercing gaze on the man next to her.

“Ms. Jenkins, you into this kind of guy now?”

The young man looked clean–cut and fresh–faced. Not bad–looking, indeed.

The air around Hamilton grew even frostier.

Natalia’s lips twitched slightly, and after a brief silence, she said, “No.”

Hamilton’s eyebrows rose in a cold arch, his expression softening slightly, but in the next instant, he unexpectedly grabbed her by the nape of the neck, forcing her to look up at him.

“Did you move out in such a hurry for this?”

Natalia winced at his grip. Tears welled up in her eyes as she stared defiantly at the man before her. “Hamilton, this guy was shoved at me by your brother, Orpheus!”

Hamilton’s eyes narrowed slightly. Then he laughed mockingly, “Since when are you and Orpheus an item? Wasn’t Alden enough for you? Now Orpheus too?”

“I have nothing to do with them!” Natalia’s eyes flashed with defiance.
