Chapter 380

Hearing those words, Natalie almost lost her composure. She thought, 'Come on, stop talking!'

Murray kept pushing, "Natalie, I've been tired of that jerk Easton for a long time. You say he loves Jennifer like crazy, so why hasn't he divorced you yet?

"He just wants to have it both ways. Why doesn't he aim for the sky? Guys like him are so full of themselves, they could scare themselves silly even in their dreams."

Natalie rolled her eyes, thinking, 'Aren't you the one getting scared by his dreams?'

Easton was fuming, wondering why he was dragged into their conversation for no reason. He retaliated fiercely: "Murray, if you say one more word, you should worry about your family's business deal."

Murray shouted, "Oh man, Natalie, that idiot is next to you. Why didn't you tell me sooner? Bad-mouthing people and getting caught is super embarrassing."

Natalie was speechless. She thought, 'It has nothing to do with me.'

Murray said, "Natalie, I'll hang up now and catch up with you later for dinner. Don't forget those stocks you mentioned; let me ride the wave with you." Before Natalie could refuse, Murray had already hung up.

Easton, with a serious look, warned Natalie, "Keep your distance from him. He's no good."

Natalie rolled her eyes, thinking Easton wasn't a good guy either. She told Easton to eat quickly because she needed to get to the office soon.

Noticing Natalie's hurry, Easton suggested, "Why don't you work at my company? I'll talk to Carl.

"Since our companies are partners and you're my wife, you could lead the design department as the chief designer. We're currently looking for one."

Natalie replied, "No way. I am not going to work at your company. We're already tangled up enough as it is. If I worked with you, it'd be even more complicated. I like my current job and don't want it to be disturbed." Easton didn't insist. Her office was right across from his, so it was easy enough for them to meet if they wanted to.
