Darren thought, "A surprise? What kind of surprise? I don't care. Does she think that I will forgive her because of a surprise! She ignored me for the whole night! I won't help her. I'm not that easy to please!' he refused her.

Darren was going to reply to Natalie. When he was ready to send the message, he immediately deleted it. The real indifference meant complete disregard. He decided to act like she didn't exist and never got her message. So as to avoid her begging for forgiveness after Darren made up his mind, tied his tie, grabbed his suit, and left the villa.

Outside the house, Tony was already waiting for Darren. Tony opened the car door for Darren, respectfully inviting him to get in, and then Tony sat in the driver's seat.

At that moment, Darren asked, "What's my schedule for this morning?"

Tony

said, "At

"At 8 AM, you have a 40-minute meeting. After that, at 9 AM, you have an appointment with the CEO of Reven Land to negotiate the land in the south of the city. At 11 AM, you have a video conference that will last until 11:30 AM." "Okay." Darren thought for a moment and said, "Cancel the meeting at 9 AM with the CEO of Reven Land."

Tony was confused. "Mr. Luther, aren't you interested in this project?"

"I'm not feeling well," Darren replied without changing his

s expression.

Tony immediately got nervous. If you're not feeling well, should we cancel all of this mom "No need." Darren waved his hand. "I can attend the other two." schedule?"

Tony was speechless and thought, 'So, you only feel unwell at 9 AM, but you are healthy for the rest of the day? It's ridiculous. As a dutiful assistant, he asked, "Mr. Luther, how exactly are you feeling unwell? Should we call a doctor?" Darren glanced at Tony and said, "Drive"

Darren arrived at the office, attended the meeting, and returned to his office. It was five minutes to nine o'clock. He suddenly noticed his tie was a bit loose, and carefully tightened it. Just

Just

the internal phone rang. He raised an eyebrow and waited for it to ring a minute before slowly picking up. "What?" Tony said, "Mr. Luther, Mr. Harper is here."

Darren wondered, 'Ethan? What's he doing here at this time?"

Darren glanced at the time; it was almost nine. He wasn't looking forward to Natalie's surprise. He just wanted to see how she would beg him and then thoroughly humiliate her. He cleared his throat. "Tell him I'm not available"

There was a silence on the phone. Tony apologized, "Sorry, Mr. Luther, Mr. Harper's already gone upstairs." Darren hung up the phone and thought, 'Ethan barely came to my company, Why did he come here today?" As he was frowning, there was a knock at the office door. Soon, Ethan pushed it open, carrying his briefcase. 08:31 Sat, Sep 21

Chapter 56

Darren invited Ethan to sit and asked, "What would you like to drink? Tea or coffee?"

100%

"No need" Ethan smiled at Darren. "I'm here for the job. Someone asked me to take care of something important." Darren frowned, "Isn't your job just chatting with patients? You shouldn't be here....

Ethan said, "Actually, your ex-wife asked me to come and give you a psychological evaluation." Ethan sat seriously on the couch, opened his briefcase, and took out paper and a pen. "She says you send her weird messages every day, suspects you might have narcissism disorder, and asked me to check on you. Shall we start?"Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Instantly, the atmosphere froze. Darren stared at Ethan. A coldness appeared in his eyes. He sneered, "You may leave now."

Ethan asked, "What's up?"

"I'm not sick," Darren said firmly.

"Then what are those texts about?" Ethan teased Darren, "Are you really that idle?"

Darren might look calm, but he was furious. He had been thinking that if Natalie came to his office to apologize in person, he would have Tony arrange a meeting with the CEO of Smooth Skin. But he didn't expect that she would fool him like this!

"I'm very busy. Tony, see him off." After saying this, Darren sat down in front of his computer. But Ethan, who attempted to make things worse, continued, "I heard you had a meeting with Reven Land at 9 AM today. Why did you cancel it suddenly? Were you waiting for me? When did I become so important?" Darren was angry. "Tony, shut his mouth and take him out."

Ethan laughed, "Okay, I will leave. The livestream is about to start anyway. If I don't leave, you'll be too embarrassed to

watch."

Darren clenched his fists in anger. He thought, 'Natalie, you dare to irritate me like this. I'd like to see how you handle it. He/ angrily opened his tablet and entered the Sweet Love live broadcast.

ALAM, the Sweet Love live broadcast started on time, as usual.

Because of what Natalie did last night, today's comments were filled with discussions about her, much more than usual.

"Listening to Nat's live stream last night felt like an enlightening experience! I feel like my soul has been purified!"

"So, is Natalie just going to pretend nothing happened? Play dumb?"

"Natalie is a liar! She hit someone! How can she not admit it? Are her fans all dumb?"

"Smooth Skin is not a qualified brand. They don't dare to make an announcement! Go fighting, Nat!"

"Is Natalie capable? Didn't she say she was going to choreograph today?"

The viewers were discussing with excitement, but in front of the camera, Natalie just sat there, motionless since the show started, staring at her phone.

Of course, the videos playing on her phone were all dance videos. She watched lazily, and anyone who didn't know better might think she had fallen asleep 08:31 Sat, Sep 21

Chapter 56

The room wasn't very quiet. Some people were quietly practicing their pieces, while others whispered to each other.

"Do you

you

really think she can choreograph the dance today?" asked a girl with brown wavy hair, frowning. "Can she just watch videos and choreograph a dance? Is it that simple?"

"Humph!" Mandy held a grudge against Natalie for being embarrassed by Natalie yesterday. "She's just a liar, don't that? Yesterday she said she didn't hit Mr. Sampson, but then the video exposed the truth. Nothing she says can be trusted"

Everyone went silent.

The video of Natalie calling her bodyguards to hit Zaiden had already gone viral on the Internet.

Seeing them not respond, Mandy continued, "Everyone online is demanding she apologize to Mr. Sampson, but she's pretending nothing happened! I've never met someone so shameless. How did we end up in the same group as her? I'm telling you, there's no way she choreographed a dance today."

"Should we ask her?" the young girl with brown wavy hair asked uncertainly. "I can choreograph a little... If she really can't do it..."

"Why didn't you say it earlier!" said Mandy excitedly. "Wait here, I'll go ask her right now!"

After she spoke, she stood up, and everyone looked at Mandy.

Mandy stuck out her chin proudly as she walked up to Natalie. "Natalie, how's that dance you said you'd choreograph? Wasn't it supposed to be ready today? Don't tell me you're lying again. If you can't do it, just admit it!"
