Chapter 692 Brandon clasped his hands and then put them back into his coat pockets. With a serious look in his eyes, he turned to Natalie and coldly asked, “Why haven't | heard that you're looking for a place of your own.” “It was just a spur-of-the-moment decision,” Natalie replied with her neck craned in embarrassment. In all honesty, if Mandy had not brought it up earlier, Natalie would not have even thought about it With that, Brandon opened the back door and glanced at Natalie. “If you say so Now get in the car.” As soon as they got into the car, the silver Bentley sped away and disappeared from the corner of the street.
“Damn it!” Mandy glanced down at the calling card in her hand, suddenly realizing that Brandon and Natalie had made a fool out of her just moments ago.
She could not help but stamp her feet in anger and frustration. Why did she not refute Brandon's words.
“Mandy, who upset you?” Draco stood beside Mandy and looked in the direction where she was staring angrily.

A faint smile then appeared on his lips as he said, “He is certainly the kind of guy who can make people angry.” He then pressed the car key in his hand twice and found his car. “But he’s not the type to pick a fight with someone for no reason. What did you do? Did you quarrel with Natalie?” “Not really,” Mandy whispered to Draco. “Then what did you do?” Draco questioned seriously. Mandy was stunned for a moment, but then she quickly sat down in his car and complained, “I want Natalie to move out of your stuas soon as possible, so | was just trying to help her find a new place of her own. | was just being kind, wasn't I? But then Brandon tauntedand left with Natalie as though | was trying to bully her!” Draco had his gaze fixed on the road as he slowly turned the steering wheel and said calmly, “I don’t know if you were doing it purely out of kindness or not, but from what | know, Natalie is a talented designer. If you can get to know her without any prejudice, she'll surprise you.” With a frown, Mandy looked at Draco’s serious profile, pursing her red lips.
It was the first tshe heard Draco commenting about Natalie She had talked about Natalie with him before, but his attitude had always been neutral, but today, she sensed a hint of threat when Draco praised Natalie.
Meanwhile, Natalie and Brandon were driving back, but there was a terrible silence in the car.
Natalie touched Brandon's fingers as she looked out the window in confusion “This doesn’t seem to be the way home.” Locking his fingers with hers, Brandon looked straight and said, “Turn left at the next intersection.” Sean obediently followed the order and turned the Bentley, driving into the busiest street in Barnes.
“How about we get down and take a walk.” Brandon got out of the car, and reached out his hand for Natalie, who was still stunned.
“Hannah is waiting at hfor me.” Hesitant, Natalie placed her hand in his and got out of the car.
They had only walked a few steps before Brandon stopped all of a sudden He looked up at the small building before him, which had damaged outer walls and no signboard. “What do you think of this place?” Natalie took a good look at the building and said, “It’s a great choice. It is located in the busiest area in Barnes and there are lots of universities and schools nearby. As long as the place is well-designed, it would definitely be a huge success. The only issue might be the price. I'm guessing that the rent might be high. Am | right?” “This is nothing for the Larson Group.” Brandon turned back and continued, “How about making this building your new studio?” Natalie was still looking at the building when she heard him. She was a little startled by his question. “I'm not ready to becan independent designer. | still feel like | need tto practice and gain more experience before setting up my own studio.” Brandon smiled and pretended to be casual. “Take your tto think about it. This building is yours now, anyway.” He was actually relieved to hear that Natalie was leaving the W Marks Studio.
Because leaving W Marks would mean leaving Draco, which in his opinion, was the best decision Natalie had made this year Her other best decision was getting married to Brandon. Natalie pursed her lips. She was scared of owning a building, not to mention she hadn't even decided if she wanted to leave W Marks yet. Such big decisions were easy for a high-placed man like Brandon, but they were a big deal to her. Flustered, she asked, “Honey, why are you so happy aboutleaving W Marks?” Grinning, Brandon stared deep into her eyes and said in a low voice that only they both could hear, “Do you trust in my judgment? Mandy is arrogant and unstable She will certainly make trouble for W Marks. It's best if you left before such things go south.” Natalie cast a sidelong glance at him, feeling helpless. Brandon chuckled and threw his coat on her head.
After struggling to get it off, Natalie kicked him, and fixed her hair. “You're so childish! You even messed up my hair...” She knew that Draco was also one of the reasons why Brandon wanted her to leave W Marks.
“Stand still. I'll fix it for you.” Brandon's lips curled into a smile as he gently raised his hand and smoothed her hair. At that moment, Natalie's phone rang.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“It’s a message from an unknown number.” A frown formed on Natalie's face. Her initial plan was to block the number. But soon, she received another message from this stranger. “I'm sorry. You may have forgotten who | am. | met you in the cafe this Wednesday morning. Do you remember me” | told you my name, Clyde Lambert.” The person’s nrang a bell. It turned out to be Clyde. Now that she knew who it was, Natalie replied, “Where did you get my phone number?” She did talk to Clyde that day because she had mistaken him for someone else.
Clyde quickly sent her a message to explain. You left in a hurry that day, leaving your design drafts with the nof your stuon it. | searched your studio’s official website and contacted the help desk to get your number.” The situation ended up being much more complicated than she had anticipated. Luckily, Clyde was thoughtful If it were someone else, he probably would have just thrown her drafts away.
“Thank you. I'll give you the address, so you can send the drafts. You don’t have to deliver them in person.” While typing on the keyboard, Natalie heard Brandon's voice.
“Who is it?” She looked up and met his dark eyes. Brandon placed his hand on her shoulder and continued, “So many messages already.” “The person who picked up my design drafts at the cafe last time. He wants to return them,” Natalie replied calmly.
At this time. Clyde sent her a message again. He sincerely expressed his desire to see her again and return the drafts in person Coincidentally, Brandon saw the message. He raised an eyebrow and put more pressure on Natalie's shoulder as he sneered.
Natalie cautiously glanced at him and met his icy gaze. “Is there anything wrong? This is a normal conversation.”
