The Promise of Happiness novel Atalie and Samuel

Chapter 934

After the misunderstanding was resolved, Carlos took a puff of his cigar and smiled amiably. “Natalie, since Olivia has apologized to you, I hope you don't mind about it anymore.”

Natalie managed a slight smile as she replied politely, “Oh, don't worry about it.”

Olivia had been impulsive, and one would say she could have been more tactful in the matter. Nevertheless, she was still the future daughter-in-law of the Stone family. Carlos was not taking Olivia's side, per se. What he said was to preserve the Stone family's reputation.

Natalie had been too adept at treading the fine line.

Too soft-spoken, and people might not have taken her seriously. Too hard-headed, and she would have hurt Amos' pride. Natalie had done a good job of saying just the right things in the right tone. Even Carlos, who was a notorious perfectionist, could not seem to find fault with her.

“Dream Corporation has established a strong foothold in Chanaea. I believe you're here in Loang to continue exploring more possibilities for an expansion?” Carlos asked with a smile.

“Yes,” Natalie murmured and took a sip of her red wine. “I plan to explore the jewelry business first. Hence, I have already signed a business agreement with your son. I believe that we will have more win-win collaborations with Stone Corporation in the future.”

Carlos eyed the woman and lamented, “If you were a man, Natalie, I think you would have been able to achieve so much more...”

“Mr. Stone, I'm afraid I cannot agree to that statement,” Natalie stated plainly with slightly narrowed eyes.

After the misunderstanding was resolved, Carlos took a puff of his cigar and smiled amiably. “Natalie, since Olivia has apologized to you, I hope you don't mind about it anymore.”

“Oh?”

“My achievements will not be defined by my gender. In fact, it shouldn't have to matter,” she uttered. “So, Mr. Stone, I hope you will not hold me in some stereotypical regard and lose confidence in me just because I'm a woman.”
