Richest Mogul

Chapter 775

The atmosphere was as tense as a battlefield.

Natalie hadn’t anticipated running into Jeremy. Since their divorce, they had hardly interacted. The last time they crossed paths, she could feel the widening gap between them. But now, seeing Jeremy again, it was as if she had done something wrong.

It felt like they were still married.

It took her a moment to remember that they were already divorced. Following Jeremy’s gaze, she glanced over.

To an outsider, it might have seemed like she had an intimate relationship with Austin. In truth, she was merely helping Austin steady himself. But there was no point in explaining–it would only make things more awkward.

She forced a small, polite smile and greeted them, “What a coincidence. Are you here for dinner too?”

Jeremy’s lips twitched slightly. His eyes were locked on Natalie, but he said nothing.

Then, his gaze shifted to Austin. Despite being slightly tipsy, Austin met Jeremy’s stare with a calm demeanor.

The silent exchange of glances between them was so intense that even Skylar, standing behind them, felt something was off.
