Echoes Of a Forsaken Heart

Chapter 243

Tess noticed Hamilton was unusually enthusiastic.

Back in the days at Ivy Gemstone, the sight of Hamilton would send shivers down her spine, but now that she was out, she felt less intimidated by him. "Mr. Fowler, are you waiting for someone here?"

Hamilton let out a dry laugh, his gaze settling on Natalia.

"Yes, waiting for someone."

Tess added, "Then you keep waiting, I'll head out with the boss."

But Hamilton suddenly spoke up.

"Hold on a second."

Natalia shot him a warning glance.

Yet, Hamilton merely chuckled.

"Ms. Jenkins, are you folks at NorthSuburb planning to take up that new development project from the government? We could collaborate on that."

Tess blinked in surprise, "Mr. Fowler, you're quite informed. We just had a meeting today to look for partners."

Hamilton kept his unwavering gaze on Natalia.

After a pause, Natalia didn't say much more.

"Let's talk."

Then, she turned to Tess, "You go ahead, Tess."

Tess nodded, "Alright then, I'll be off. Boss, Mr. Fowler, see you."

It wasn't until Tess had left that Natalia gave Hamilton a stern look.

Hamilton just laughed, "I was just trying to save you a few steps, you know?"

Natalia didn't respond, simply getting into the car.

As Hamilton helped her with the seatbelt, his eyes inadvertently fell on her lips.
