Chapter 36

Brian clenched his fists fiercely. “You took Nat away from me! Leave her and her back to me, and I’ll let off you!”

Josh laughed with anger. “Mr. Sherman, you are so arrogant

Keeping his cool, Josh dismissed him. “Listen, I gotta get back to my wife.

After saying that, Josh was about to leave. He promised Natalie to be right back.

with for four years is

Looking at Josh’s back crazily and provocatively, Brian roared. “She doesn’t love you! She loves me! The person she has been with

mel

Josh paused. His sharp eyes darkened slightly. They looked sullener in the light of the corridor.

Seeing that, Brian continued to ridicule. “No one in the world knows Nat better than me. I know her favorite sleeping posture, her favorite kissing posture, her favorite food, and what she likes to play. I also know that she just sees you as a stepping stone to leave the Linney family and me!”

After a long while, Josh slowly looked back at Brian with a casual smile. “So what I’m her first man.” That was enough..

After saying that, Josh didn’t look at Brian’s red eyes, turned around, and strode away.

Without hesitation, Brian raised his fist and wanted to rush forward.

But the commotion had drawn the manager and staff. They rounded the comer and held Brian back “Sir, please, calm down! No fighting in here. Take it outside if you must

“Let

of me!” Brian roared at Josh’s back, “Fight with me if you have the guts! Come on! Don’t you dare do that? Who do you think you are? How dare you take away my woman, loser?!”

Josh just smirked and kept walking, leaving Brian fuming and powerless as the staff intervened.

The moment Josh walked out of the corridor, a woman in a mess passed by him, but josh didn’t notice that

When Josh arrived at the table, the mess here had been quickly cleaned up by the staff.

When Josh’s eyes landed on Natalie, his intense gaze softened, and he let out a quiet sigh. Despite his usual cool composure, even when dealing with high–stakes international affairs, here he was, feeling rattled by just a few words, his jealousy flaring up like an insecure teenager.

“What am I worried about? he thought to himself ‘Natalie is with me, and she’s going to fall for me, too

After convincing himself, Josh walked to the table with a gende look, raised Natalie’s chin, and kissed her on the check. He smiled and asked, “Have you waited me for too long. Nat”

Natalie shrank because of the kiss and said, “Not really”

“Let’s eat

“Okay

Josh uw the creamy garlic

shrimp when they were about to eat. His eyes darkened for a second,

Just then, a fluffy linde Samoyed darted out from the same hallway, positioning itself in front of Josh, and gave a soft bark. Looking up with its tongue hanging out, it seemed quite happy to see him.

Josh caressed its little head.

Natalie was surprised. “Itsrems in

cut to know

you.”

“Yeah,” Josh smiled and said. “I used to feed it when I came here!

Natalie, a sucker for cute animals, bent down to scoop it into her amis.

Josh thought of something and suddenly said, “Don’t hug it”

Chapter 36

Natalie paused and asked, “Why not?”

“It’s a mule, Josh thought but didn’t finish aloud.

Before Josh could finish his words, the Samoyed got into Natalie’s arms, licked her hands, and wagged its tail happily. Frustrated, josh reached over and gently pulled the dog away. He glanced at the plate of creamy garlic shrimp on the table and then put it on the ground. The dog instantly buried its face in the dish.

In the corridor, Jennifer saw Brian’s sullen face when she found him. “Brian… What’s wrong!”

Brian paused for a while and said. T’m fine… But you? What happened?”

must hate me

Hearing that Jennifer suddenly said in a choked voice, “Brian, when you were absent just now, Natalie suddenly rushed to me. She must h and want to take revenge on me. My wrist is dislocated..?

Brian’s thoughts raced. “Hate! Revenge? She still cares about me; that’s why she lashed out at Jennifer‘ He felt a twisted satisfaction. “Alright” Brian gently wiped the tears on Jennifer’s face. “The most important thing is to send you back and get you a family doctor

Jennifer planned to let Brian avenge her, but Brian didn’t say anything about it, so she could only give up.

“Alright”

As they walked past the stairs, Brian glanced over and saw the Samoyed enjoying the shrimp he had ordered for Natalie. At that moment, a waiter approached them and said, “Sir, here’s the creamy garlic shrimp you re–ordered. Enjoy!”

Sensing Brian’s gaze, josh didn’t look back but picked up a shrimp and fed Natalie. She opened her mouth and ate it. Josh reached out and gently wiped the corner of her mouth.

Brian couldn’t help but think of Josh’s eyes just now. He was disdainful and indifferent.

Brian suddenly realized that maybe Josh wasn’t unwilling to fight with him, but just disdained to do so.

In fact, Josh had been disdainful and indifferent all the time. Brian was nothing to him. Josh didn’t even take Brian seriously, so Brian’s provocation couldn’t affect him at all.

Brian felt so frustrated. Swallowing his pride, Brian walked away with Jennifer,

After returning from the restaurant, Natalie had nothing else to do so she went to play the piano in the piano room. Josh wasn’t busy for a change and sat with her.

Following her performance, he wrapped his arms around her waist, stroked her hair, and murmured. “You’re so talented, Nat. I’m lucky to have you”

Flustered and charmed, Natalie avoided his gaze and muttered, “You’re just saying that.”

“No,” Josh replied with that winsome smile. “I mean every word.”
