Chapter 589
“Where is she then?” Brandon looked around and saw that only Natalie and Derek were at the table.
“She is in the bathroom,” Natalie said confidently.
However, Elizabeth hadn’t returned. Because of how Brendan was looking at her, Natalie felt even guiltier. “Okay. Calm down.”
She then told him to sit down next to her. Sean, on the other hand, sat next to Derek.
“Have a look at the table! There are three sets of tableware, see? I think Elizabeth is coming back soon, and she’ll prove that I’m telling the truth,” Natalie continued to explain.
Brandon didn’t respond, but he sat down to show that he was willing to sit and wait for Natalie to prove that she was telling the truth.
Unexpectedly, a waitress came over and gave them the bill. “Ma’am, Sir, here’s the bill. By the way, do you still want us to keep the suite for the two of you? If you don’t need it, I can cancel it for you,” she said to Derek.
Confused, Derek glanced at everyone else at the table. He stood up, visibly shocked. “When the hell did I ask to book a suite?”
Brandon’s face turned grim. “Looks like there’s no need for further explanation.”
Thereafter, he stood up and left.
Natalie glared at Derek and said, “What prank are you trying to pull off here, Derek?”
She stood up and followed Brandon right away. Only then did she notice that there were employees of the Larson Group gathered in the restaurant near her.
They all stopped smiling when they saw Natalie.
Natalie lowered her head and continued to run after Brandon. She just now understood that she unintentionally humiliated him in front of his employees.
Those employees from earlier must be enjoying the fact that she had a dispute with Brandon.
Natalie chased Brandon out of the restaurant.
However, the windy dusk and her high heels made it difficult for her to keep up. With long strides, Brandon was about to cross the zebra crossing.
There, realizing that she couldn’t catch up with him, Natalie suddenly came up with an idea.
Moreover, did something untoward occur with Elizabeth? She went to the bathroom and then never returned! After having this thought, Natalie decided she needed to go back to the restaurant again to check if Elizabeth was alright.
“You’re definitely thinking about something. What is it?” Seeing Brandon’s silence, Natalie grew more anxious. She walked over and hugged him, asking him, “Are you still mad?”
Just then, a familiar Maserati pulled up before the two. . “Hey, stop canoodling in the middle of the road, will you?” Derek rolled down the window and glanced at the couple
Natalie was about to lash out at Derek when Elizabeth emerged from the car, looking worried. “Hey, when I came back from the bathroom, you were nowhere to be found. Derek told me you and Brandon got into a brawl because of me, is it true?”
Both Natalie and Brandon glared daggers at Derek simultaneously. Natalie fumed, “Derek, why do you always speak gibberish?”
Derek also stepped out of the vehicle, hands in his pockets, and said, “I’m not talking balderdash. It’s true that Brandon jumped to conclusions and got angry because he didn’t see Elizabeth and thought that we two were having a date alone.”
Elizabeth quickly explained, “Mr. Larson, be careful about what you think about Natalie. Natalie didn’t have dinner with Derek alone. I was there with them, but I had to use the bathroom at that time. I didn’t expect to cause such turmoil bet**en you two. I’m truly sorry.” “It’s okay. I just want a good reason as to why you went as far as booking a suite.” Natalie cast a sharp glance at Derek.
