Chapter 479

Besides, Kelly was just a secretary.

How could she talk to Laney in such a bossy tone! Pretending not to hear Kelly’s words, Natalie continued to speak to Laney.

“What happened?” she asked in a low voice.

“I called you several times, but you didn’t answer.”

Glancing back at Kelly, Laney whispered in her ear.

“Garrett was supposed to come, but then at the last minute, something urgent seemed to come up. l couldn’t get in touch with him. Eventually, Vera had to ask me to come with Kelly.”

“What was he doing? Why did he bail on you?” Natalie asked, frowning.

Brandon just promised Natalie that Garrett was a reliable man, but it certainly didn’t look like it.

Just as Natalie was about to call Garrett, Kelly stopped her.

“You know nothing,” Kelly said, clearly dissatisfied.

“Why would you say that? Mr. Harding had something important to do, so he couldn’t come here. You’re just a designer. How could you say such a thing about Mr. Harding? I should sue you for slander!”

Natalie removed Kelly’s hand and said, calmly, “Go ahead, sue me right now! I won’t talk to you again before your lawyer comes.”

Kelly couldn’t beat Natalie at arguing.

Trying to grab her phone, she said, “Wait here. 1’II call security and they’ll kick you out! I know what’s going on here! People like you just sneak in to seduce wealthy men!”

At this sort of event, other than the wealthy ladies, there were always women in attendance who were looking for opportunities to meet rich men.

Kelly didn’t know Natalie at all, but she could tell that Natalie wasn’t one of the wealthy ladies because she had never seen her before.

“I came here with my husband,” Natalie said, taking a step back, a disappointed look on her face.

Kelly snorted. She didn’t believe that Natalie’s husband could be a person of note.
