Chapter 689 “Hannah stealing something from you is impossible. Not to mention just desserts.” Natalie wanted to roll her eyes. She didn’t believe it at all.
Mandy walked over to Hannah, her black high-heeled shoes clacking on the floor She took Hannah's hand and forced her fist to open, revealing an almost crushed pastry. She smiled triumphantly and showed it to everyone.
“See? This is the evidence.” Mandy then threw away the pastry, took out her handkerchief, and wiped her hands carefully in disgust. Then she looked at Natalie and sneered. “You should ask the lady for an explanation. | never wrong anyone.” Natalie panicked but she swallowed it down. Looking at Hannah, she said softly, “Hannah, don’t be afraid. | know you wouldn't do this.” Hannah was now red with embarrassment. She explained, “I didn’t steal it. | didn’t know the lady brought it herself since all the desserts were on the table. | knew you liked sweets when you were little so | just wanted to save sfor you.” Hannah had been waiting in the VIP room for Natalie. She took comfort in the room's luxurious decor and glittering crystal chandeliers.
She was overjoyed that Natalie had been able to secure a good job.
A female worker then entered the VIP room with desserts. “Miss Hamilton brought back sweets and tea for everyone. She askedto bring sto the client in the VIP room.” Both the black tea and the pastries looked appetizing and had a pleasant aroma.

“Yes, it's for you. Don’t worry.” After putting down the desserts, the female worker left the room with the tray.
Hannah thanked her and waited for her to leave before she picked up the dessert from the table and examined it carefully. The sound of the door opening cat this moment “Who are you?” When Mandy opened the door, she noticed an old lady in plain clothes squatting by the tea table. Her brow furrowed as she said indifferently. “Alright. You can go clean up the floor outside. | have an important client arriving shortly.” Mandy removed her white suit jacket and began sorting the documents she needed for the client today. Seeing the old lady still squatting there, she impatiently walked over. “Hey, are you deaf? I've told you to clean the floor outside. | have a client meeting here soon and you will ruin it.” As Mandy approached, she caught the old woman putting the dessert she had prepared for her client into her pocket.
Mandy muttered sarcastically, “Are you stealing? These desserts are for my client.” After saying that, she turned around and opened the door “Security, cin and take this woman out. And call the police to report that there's a thief here.” After telling them what had happened, Hannah turned to Natalie and said, “You have to trust me, Natalie. I'm not stealing anything.” Hannah was panicking. She had never been treated so unfairly all her life.
Patting Hannah's back to comfort her, Natalie said, “Don’t worry, Hannah. I'll help you.” She gave Mandy a stern look and said, “This is my first client as an independent designer. For me, she is more important than any client. What you did to her was wrong, Mandy. Please apologize to her.” “What did you say? You wantto apologize?” Mandy sneered in disbelief.
Honestly, she felt a twinge of shAlthough she had now realized she made a mistake, her pride forbade her from apologizing to the poor woman she had wronged.
However, there were a lot of people present, and everyone was watching.
Mandy felt she had no choice under Natalie's hard stare. She gritted her teeth in hesitation before finally looking at the old woman. “I'm sorry.” She was so ashamed that she rushed out of the door, regardless of whether or not Hannah would accept her apology.
However, Natalie was not satisfied. She could feel that Mandy was insincere. ‘That's not how you apologize.” She was about to chase after Mandy, but Hannah quickly stopped her. “I think she’s a little embarrassed. Let her go. Don’t give her a hard time.” Hearing this, Natalie sighed in resignation “I didn’t expect that a big shot would suddenly join us. Did Mr. Wesley ask her to help manage the studio?” Natalie looked at Mandy, who was not far away. She had a bad first impression of Mandy, the new designer here.
Elizabeth took Natalie somewhere else and whispered, “She’s Mr. Wesleys friend and a famous designer. They are now working on a big project together. That is why she has been dropping by frequently. But she is not officially employed by the company. She was once well-known in New York's fashion industry for her luxury style.
Her design concept was to serve rich people. Don’t let such a misunderstanding cause a rift between you two.
Who knows? One day you two may be able to work together.” “No wonder.” Natalie's expression didn’t change at all. “But I'm not that narrow-minded. She has apologized, so I'll let this pass.” “That's good. Let's go over and formally introduce ourselves. After all, you will see each other often in the future.” The two women walked over arm in arm.

Flashing a smile, Mandy scanned Natalie from head to toe.
“I've heard about you. Natalie Larson Quinn, wife of Brandon Larson and daughter of Beal and Johanna White.” Mandy nodded with a smile and her voice was calm. “There is a huge project I'm working on with Draco, so I'd be coming to W Marks very often from now on Forgiveif I've been of any trouble to you.” “Don’t worry, I'd surely point it out if you causedany trouble.” Natalie took a deep breath. “I hope you heard as well that I'm a designer at W Marks,” she said, putting on a kind smile Mandy chuckled She had not expected the woman in front of her to be so eloquent. She did pay attention to the latest Iridescent Show when it was held. She thought Draco would attend the show on behalf of W Marks at the time. However, she didn’t expect a strange woman to appear on stage instead of him during the live broadcast.
Mandy had privately called to confirm with Draco. He informed her he was not feeling well, and he wanted to give the newcomer an opportunity.
Mandy felt uncomfortable at this somewhat hasty answer. She was the only one who knew how truly important the Iridescent Show was to Draco. He wouldn't so easily just hand it over to someone else.
It had been on her mind since then and each tit cup, she felt uncomfortable.
She got an opportunity today. So she chose to test what sort of person Natalie really was that Draco trusted her that much “Instead of talking about who you are. let's discuss the orders you take as a designer. This old lady.
Hannah, you said she’s a client of yours? Do you always take orders from such poor clients?” Mandy stared at Natalie disdainfully and her tone was sarcastic. “It’s very clear this old woman doesn’t have a dto her name.” Mandy had visited a lot of high-end places in New York. She believed her eyes to be sharp, and that she could now tell who had money and who did not at a glance.
Natalie stared at her incredulously. She balled her fingers into fists. “You truly are so full of yourself, Mandy.”
