Chapter 170: Who Are You Calling Gigolo?

Inside Natalie’s Office.

Natalie and Mia stepped into the office, where Ella was busy explaining Victor’s schedule for the upcoming week.

Mia grinned as she spotted him. "So, our superstar is here too."

Victor glanced at the two women, his eyes lingering on Natalie as she took her seat. "I was waiting to recharge by seeing my little sweet."

"Other than those good lines in the movies, all you know is to talk shit," Natalie countered.

"Seems like you had too much sweetness from your husband and that my heartfelt words feels like a shit to you now," Victor countered, "What did you do? I can’t expect more from you other than a kiss like school kids?"

Natalie glared at him. "You don’t need to know."

"Ahem," Mia interjected, stifling a laugh. "She missed her morning treat because of me."

Victor raised a brow, leaning slightly toward Natalie. "Ah, is that why you’re sulking? Come here, I’ll give you a better one."

"Shut up!" Natalie snapped, grabbing a nearby file and hurling it at him with force.

Victor caught the file effortlessly, flipping it open. His expression soured instantly to annoyed ones. "No way I am accepting this."

Natalie smiled mockingly, "It’s up to me to decide."

Mia chuckled, catching onto the tension. "When Silvia approached me about promoting our perfume, her only condition was working with you. I thought it was because you were former co-stars, but from the look on your face... seems like there’s more to this story."

Victor’s eyes darkened as he tossed the file back onto the desk with a flick of his hand. "There’s no story. That woman is an annoyance, and I’m not working with her."
