“Of course, I’m going to find someone else!” The woman angrily pointed at the door. “Get out now!”

After taking a few steps toward the door, Natalie stopped in her tracks, turned around, and glared at the woman. “I will go! But you have to pay me the money first!”

“You’ve ruined my wall. I haven’t asked you to compensate for it yet. What makes you think I’d pay you for wrecking my wall?” the woman snapped venomously. “If you don’t leave right now, I’ll ask the security guards to drive you away.”

The woman picked up her phone, pretending to make a phone call while she was mourning in her heart.

She wondered if she had gone too far. After all, fighting with the CEO’s wife was a dangerous thing to do. ‘Gosh, why is he asking me to do such a terrible thing!’

At that moment, Sebastian stepped forward and protectively stood beside Natalie. “It looks like you’re happy with the painting. You are deliberately trying to find faults just so that you don’t have to pay the money.”

The woman snorted. “Do I look like someone who can’t afford to pay for this stupid painting? I said I’m not satisfied. Don’t you understand that?”

Sebastian gently held Natalie’s arm and glared at the woman. “If you don’t pay as per the agreement, I’ll make you regret it.”

The woman was petrified.

She didn’t know what to do. Although she knew the CEO was just acting, he looked frightening.

“Who do you think you are? Fine, I’ll pay you!” The woman took out her wallet from her bag and handed all the money she had already prepared to give to Natalie.

Without saying a word, Natalie took the money and carefully counted it.

The woman looked at her and sneered. “You don’t need to count it. I wouldn’t cheat over such a small sum of money.”

Just then, they heard someone open the door.

“What’s going on? Why the noise? I could hear you quarreling all the way from the front yard.”

A man in his forties walked in. Natalie suspected he had used hair gel and makeup to look older for some reason.
