Chapter 13: Natalie In Trouble
In the evening, Justin returned to the hotel after visiting a new home he was considering purchasing in the city. As the VIP elevator to the top floor was out of service, a staff guided him and Noah to a non VIP elevator which would take them to the floor below and they had to take stairs for the top floor.
On the way to the elevator, Justin noticed a familiar figure among the people entering the reception area, but couldn't see her face clearly. He furrowed his brows, trying to get a better look, but the figure had disappeared from the line of his sight.
Noah, noticing Justin's distracted gaze, excused the staff and explained, "There's a party in the hotel tonight, hosted by the second son of the Davis family. Most of the city's influential figures are invited. These guests must be here for that event. No one knows you're in the city, Mr. Harper, or we would have been invited as well. But, Mr. Rowan has been trying to reach you and asked a few times if you would like to go with him...."
"Tell him I'm busy," Justin simply walked into the elevator, his mind elsewhere.
Noah didn't push the matter, knowing that Justin rarely attended parties unless they involved business.
Inside the elevator, Justin quietly contemplated the possibility of having seen Natalie at the hotel. Considering her current circumstances, attending a party seemed unlikely and unwise, especially if she wanted to avoid being ridiculed by others.
As they stepped out and walked down a corridor, they overheard a group of girls talking. Initially, they ignored the chatter, but then a familiar name caught their attention.
"Natalie. I'm going to teach her a lesson today."
"Are you sure she's here, Briena? I don't think she'd dare show up at parties after the mess she caused."
"She's here with Mia. We saw her."
"What do you plan to do?"
"You know what she's most afraid of?"
"What is it?"
"Her mother died by drowning in the sea, so she's terrified of water. She can do anything but swim."
