Chapter 63
Chapter 63
After leaving Hamilton Corporation, Natasha directly drove the car back to her company.
In her honest opinion, driving a car was not as convenient as taking a cab because not being able to sleep during the journey was a torment to her.
She had to walk some distance to her office located on the top floor of the building after parking her car in the parking lot.
Natasha suddenly had a feeling as if someone was following behind her as she walked.
However, when she turned around, there was no one behind.
She scanned her surroundings and saw that the parking lot was empty.
After that, Natasha continued to stride ahead while wearing a frown.
The silhouette of a person appeared in a corner behind her after she entered the elevator.
When she returned to the Programming Department, Xavier immediately walked up to her. “Are you free tonight, Boss?”
Natasha looked at him. “What's the matter?”
“My little sister said she wishes to meet with you.”
“Why does she want to meet with me?” Natasha furrowed her brows. She was baffled by that request.
“You are her savior, so she wishes to meet with you.”
“If I am her savior, then what are you?” Natasha asked him.
“That's different!” Xavier replied.
“Nope. I'm not going,” she rejected. She would not enjoy or be used to a situation where others thanked and revered her.
He frowned. “But it's her birthday today.
That's her only birthday wish. How should I explain to her if you're not going?”
Natasha might put up a tough exterior, but she was actually a soft-hearted person.
She was stumped after hearing Xavier's words.
“Boss, just go and meet with her. I promise it wouldn't take much of your time,” he added.
At that moment, Ross and Thomas came over. “That's right, Ms. Watson. Just meet with her. Xavier's little sister is a young lady with a nice personality. She's been thinking about you all the time. You can think of this meeting as fulfilling her wish.”
“Yes, that's right. She's been expressing her desire to meet with you for a long time.”
Natasha contemplated briefly while staring at the two newcomers. “Fine. The two of you should join me.”
“Us? Why should we go?” Ross and Thomas piped up simultaneously.
She grinned at them. “Isn't today her birthday? Naturally, we are going to organize a birthday party.”
Xavier gazed at her. “Are you agreeing to meet with her?”
“I'll make myself clear now. If she expresses her gratitude or tells me she's thankful later, I'll leave at once,” Natasha said.
“I can guarantee you'll never listen to any of that.” Xavier shook his head firmly.
She had no other choice but to agree to his request.
After Xavier left, Natasha told Ross and Thomas to stay.
“Both of you need to do some shopping.”
“What are we buying?”
“Food, drinks, or anything to play with. Just buy some things the little girl likes,” she elaborated.
“In that case, I'll order all the stuff online and have them delivered to the hospital directly?” NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
“Sure.” “I'll purchase the items that I feel suitable
then.”
Natasha looked down and tapped her phone a few times. Then, Ross' phone rang. “Put the expenses on my tab.”
Ross looked at her. “Ms. Watson, I know you're a rich lady, but I can still afford to pay for this.” After saying that, he returned the money to Natasha.
“Okay. Dinner is on me then,” Natasha said.
Hearing her offer, Ross and Thomas' eyes gleamed. “In that case, we shall not hold back in accepting your kindness.”
“You two do not strike me as people who would hold back anyway.”
“Thank you for the compliment, Ms.
Watson.”
Ross and Thomas left after they exchanged some sarcastic remarks.
Natasha was about to place down her phone and prepare to work when she suddenly saw Thea's newly added contact on her device.
She was reminded of Thea's personality. By right, she should hate me. Why did she suddenly ask to add me on WhatsApp?
Perhaps...
Natasha clicked on Thea's profile picture and the link to her Instagram account that was attached to her WhatsApp description.
She saw a picture of her and Kenneth. He was sleeping while she stayed by his side. The picture gave off an affectionate vibe, and the caption about her keeping him company was very touching.
The background of the image was unclear, but the photo and the caption alone were sufficient to flaunt their intimate relationship.
Natasha could not help but smirk after seeing the picture.
I suppose this is Thea's goal.
At that thought, Natasha, having a mischievous character, double-tapped on the picture to like the photo.
Sometimes, blessing others to have their wish granted is a virtue. I think I am the most virtuous person alive.
After that, she placed her phone aside and began working.
Her mood was not at all affected by Thea's Instagram post.
Instead, she felt extremely cheerful.
After work, Xavier left first because he wanted to collect the cake.
Ross and Thomas gathered around. “How are we going there, Ms. Watson?”
She stared at them. “I assume you two know how to drive?”
They nodded.
Natasha tossed her car keys to them. “You two drive the car then.”
Ross and Thomas gaped at the car key in front of them. In the end, they tacitly played rock-paper- scissors to decide who got to be the driver.
As a result, Thomas won the game. He delightfully took the keys and went to the parking lot.
Ross could not accept the outcome. He walked up to him and suggested that they drive half of the journey each.
They arrived at the parking lot amidst their discussion.
Natasha went ahead and sat in the backseat.
Ross and Thomas gazed at her in astonishment. “Ms. Watson, you're not sitting in front?”
“I want to take a nap. You two be quiet,” she said.
God only knows how excited Ross and Thomas were after listening to her because they could now admire the car as they liked and pretend as if they owned the car to their hearts' content.
Then, they started the car.
Initially, Ross and Thomas were still able to contain their exhilaration as they had never imagined the day they could drive a Phantom.
However, they began to lose control of their excitement halfway through the drive.
Ross sat aside and took a lot of pictures.
Thomas said, “Take some pictures of me. Make sure I look good.”
“Are you going to let me drive later?”
“All right, sure!” Thomas replied.
Only then did Ross cooperated with him and took a few pictures for Thomas.
However, the latter was obviously dissatisfied with the photos. “What's with the terrible quality of the photos you've taken? These won't do. You need to retake the pictures.”
“I think they're fine.”
“They certainly are not fine! Are you retaking the pictures or not? If you're not going to help me, then I won't let you drive!”
The sound of their argument awoke Natasha in the end.
She regarded them with a look of resignation.
Why did I come with these two idiots?
She gazed out of the car window, and when she saw them passing by a store, Natasha was reminded of something. “Stop the car on the side of the road ahead.”
Thomas heard her. He immediately turned on the signal lights and brought the car to a halt on the roadside.
“What do you want to do, Ms. Watson?”
Natasha did not reply. She directly opened the car door and got out of the car.
The two men sat inside the vehicle and waited. They saw her enter a gift shop and were discussing Natasha's intention of going in there when she exited the shop while hugging a very big teddy bear.
Inexplicably, even though Natasha was considered a beauty, the sight of her holding a human-sized teddy bear still seemed comical.
Perhaps it was because Ross and Thomas were too familiar with her personality, so they found that scene unmatching with her usual demeanor.
Ross dutifully got out of the car and helped Natasha open the car door. She stuffed the teddy bear into the backseat before getting into the vehicle herself.
“Ms. Watson, did you buy that for Xavier's little sister?” Ross asked.
“Isn't that obvious?” Natasha questioned him.
“No, it's nothing. The bear is adorable!” he lied.
She could not care less about their opinion. “Hurry up and drive the car.” “Got it”
