Bobby immediately went to the study room and told William, “Sir, Natasya is currently at the seafood restaurant. Our men said that someone is following her as well.”
“Really? Where are Hardy and Talita right now?” William asked.
“Well, Hardy is still in his company whereas Talitha is at the seafood restaurant,” Bobby replied.
“What? Are you saying that both sisters are currently at the same restaurant?” William enquired further.
“Yes, you’re right,” Bobby answered.
“I see. Continue to keep an eye on Hardy and see if he’ll eventually make his way to the seafood restaurant.”
Valeria was beside him and chimed in, “Could it be that Talitha and Natasya have agreed to enjoy lunch together?”
“Nope!” Bobby continued, “If that is the case, they would definitely head there together instead of arriving at the restaurant one after the another.”
William nodded and said, “Bobby is right as it is not possible for them to have an appointment with each other. First of all, they do not see eye to eye and Natasya is still keeping a low profile ever since the scandal broke out.”
“What are they doing there then?” Valeria could not wrap her head around.
“You’ll know about it sooner or later,” William did not want to spill the beans yet.
“I’m so eager to know! You always leave me hanging,” Valeria glared at him.
William chuckled and said, “Honey, you have misunderstood me. I can only be sure when I get ahold of Hardy’s next move. My speculation would be incorrect should he not move a single inch away from his company.”
He then instructed Bobby, “Keep an eye on the sisters and we shall see if Hardy would make his way to the seafood restaurant later. It would be an interesting show to watch should he show up soon.”
“What does having a meal at the seafood restaurant has anything to do with Hardy?” Valeria muttered to herself.
“Of course it is related! Natasya had just contacted Gonzalec to ask for more information about the blood vermin. He then followed Silas’ instructions and spew nonsense to her. I reckon that something remarkable had happened between Hardy and Natasya.”
A phone call suddenly came in and it was from William’s men who were busy following Natasya around. “Hardy has arrived at the restaurant.”
“Just as I expected!” William burst out of laughter and continued, “Hardy doesn’t disappoint! He must have made a move last night if my speculation is accurate. He’s clearly scheming against Natasya today and I have overestimated her. I did not expect her to fall into Hardy’s trap so easily! Keep a very close eye on them and it’s best if you could snap a few juicy pictures.”
Natasya went to the second floor of the seafood restaurant upon arrival. She did not intend to have a meal there but was instead planning to get ahold of Hardy.
There was still plenty of time to linger around as she had arrived early. She then stood by the stairway of the second floor and glanced out of the window.
She had estimated that Hardy must be leaving his company around this time and he would not be arriving here anytime soon. The reason she chose to stand by the window was to get a closer look upon Hardy’s arrival.
Natasya had already come up with a plan to lure Hardy into her private room later.
On the other hand, Hardy knew what was going on in her mind as he made his way towards the restaurant.
Hardy’s men were following Natasya all along and Hardy had received timely updates about her whereabouts.
A sneer crept on Hardy’s face upon learning that Natasya had arrived at the restaurant. He then called Paisley, “Paisley, make your way to the seafood restaurant right now. Natasya has fallen into our trap!”
“Okay, I’ll be right there! Hardy, what are you planning to do next?”
“Well…” Hardy scoffed and continued, “I would play out a good show with Natasya that’s for sure.”
Natasya stood by the window for quite some time and saw Hardy’s car finally arriving at the restaurant.
She immediately walked out of the private room upon seeing him getting of the vehicle.
She deliberately rushed down from the second-floor stairway just when Hardy was about to use the elevator of the restaurant. She then coincidentally bumped into him.
Hardy stretched out his hand and held Natasya’s waist to prevent her from falling down. He was surprised upon realizing that it was her and asked, “What are you doing here?”
Natasya ignored his question but had instead put on a painful look and groaned, “Ouch… I’m in pain…”
“Have you injured yourself?” Hardy pretended to be concerned and offered, “Let me take you to the hospital!”
She remained silent but instead deliberately fainted in his arms. A scornful sneer appeared in Hardy’s eyes and he immediately carried her while walking out of the restaurant.
He eventually carried Natasya into his car. Bevan, who happened to be his driver then asked, “Mr. Anthony, what has happened?”
“She has just knocked into me and I think that she is injured. Let’s head to the hospital right now.”
Natasya laid in his arms with her eyes shut and was busy thinking about her next move. It was not possible for her to be sent to the hospital as she was just pretending.
The only thing that she was utterly curious about is whether Hardy had caught feelings for her or not. She needed to come up with a way to test the water.
Hardy continued to support her and she had decided to seize this perfect opportunity. Natasya was still closing her eyes and lightly stretched her hand out…
He was stunned by her sudden touch and Bevan had noticed it too. Bevan made eye contact with Hardy and immediately winded up the car partition.
Hardy began getting down to business and caressed Natasya’s…
The moaning sound was increasingly louder and the atmosphere was getting more intense. Bevan, who was taking the wheel, felt rather awkward and stepped on the paddle to speed up.
There was an underground parking lot nearby and he decided to park his vehicle there.
Bevan swiftly got off the car as it came to a halt. He looked back and realized that the car was shaking.
There was no doubt that something hot and messy was happening inside the vehicle.
Hardy and Natasya began to madly start their lovely battle. William’s men had been observing them and started to snap countless pictures by using a professional camera.
Talitha had been waiting for Hardy at the seafood restaurant for quite some time. She wanted to give Hardy a call but Paisley had suddenly turned up. “Talitha, I’m so sorry! My brother has an urgent meeting to attend and he will be occupied for the time being. He personally called me to come over and have lunch with you instead.”
“He promised me to have a seafood feast together. Why would he turn back on his words?” Talitha had a sulky face and was feeling displeased.
Paisley smiled apologetically and said, “He just wants to do his best in work. My brother would love to come over but his workload is too huge at the moment.”
Talitha initially thought that she could have lunch with Hardy happily and would receive a present from him. However, it was all wishful thinking due to the sudden change of plan.
Talitha felt upset but she could not do anything about it.
She suppressed her negative emotions and forced herself to have lunch with Paisley. They then bid goodbye and Talitha eventually went back home in a depressed mood.
