Chapter 655

Natalie chuckled as she picked up a glass of champagne and clinked glasses with Garrett.

“I’m just kidding…”

She raised her glass and proudly declared, “Let’s celebrate this with a toast. For me officially joining this alliance.”

Brandon clinked glasses with Natalie and smiled.

“Congratulations.”

Garrett, on the other hand, looked down at his glass and frowned.

“Why didn’t you clink glasses with me, Brandon?”

“The Harding Group and the Larson Group are still competitors. Compared to you, I think my wife is more trustworthy,”

Brandon said with a smile before taking a sip of his champagne leisurely.

“You can’t just line me up with the Harding family!”

Garrett clenched his jaw and put his glass down.

“Besides, why didn’t you say that when you started a business with me?”

At that point, he was about to grab Brandon by the collar and settle this matter through the way men usually turned to—a fight, but Natalie stopped him before he could do so.

“Don’t fight!” Natalie said, her soft voice breaking the tense atmosphere as she stood in between them.

Garrett frowned and clenched his fists.

“I’ve only been away from the Larson Group for a few months, but he already treats me like a complete stranger. It seems like I have to beat him up so he can finally recall the past when we used to fight side by side.”

Natalie’s eyes widened in shock.

“Hell no! Are you out of your mind? Why are you being so narrow-minded, Garrett? Brandon is right. You’re not a part of the Larson Group now and you’re busy with the Harding Group’s business. If we tell you about Vivian, it’ll only bring you even more trouble.”

“Don’t think you’re so superior just because your wife is protecting you, Brandon!” Garrett exclaimed.
