He instantly narrowed his dark eyes, quickly put his fingertip on her lower jaw, and slowly swept along
the inside.
Natalie had wanted to retaliate against him and never expected it to backfire on herself. When she was
stunned, he pressed the finger against her palate. She felt so uncomfortable that tears welled up in her
eyes. So, she held his hand to stop him from continuing.
But she underestimated his evilness. When Kendrick saw her slightly opened crimson lips and teary
eyes, an undercurrent surged in his eyes, making them look like the deep sea without light.
He did not want to let her go. So, he played with the tip of her tongue and continued to tease her.
"Are you still biting me?"
His finger touched the position close to her throat, so her face turned pale.
Seeing her admit defeat, he slowly retracted his finger. When he picked up the cup on the table to feed
her water, she turned her face aside.
His actions just now made her feel inexplicably ashamed and inadaptable.
He held the cup in front of her lips and coaxed her, saying, "Have some water."
Seeing her not respond, he chuckled, "What about I let you bite me again?"
Hearing this, she lowered her head and obediently drank the water.
After putting the cup down, Kendrick unhurriedly said, "You just came to the company and set a target
of 15 million dollars. Many eyes are watching you. You must control risks in advance to avoid
subsequent trouble."
Her face was still pale, although she had drunk the water.
Seeing her so pitiful, he gently stroked her forehead and said, "If you are determined, you can sign the
contract with him."
They were on the same boat, so he would not let her bear the pressure alone. He would help her when
she got in trouble.
Natalie finally caught her breath and said, "I have confidence. I have a unique judgment of character.
And I believe he will become a remarkable success."
When she looked up at him, she did not dare to stare at his face for too long.
Suddenly, his phone rang. The takeaway had arrived. Then, she ate in unusual silence. She always
talked during meals, so he was not used to her quiet today.
When Natalie was eating with her head down, she saw him reaching out one hand from the corner of
her eye. So, she reflexively leaned aside to avoid it.
After he wiped the crumbs off her cheek, she saw a meaningful smile in his eyes. So, she felt she had
misjudged him.
D*mn it! He turned out to be such a bad man!

Daisy swore she would seek revenge and make endless trouble for the marketing department at night.
But the HR department made an appointment with her early in the morning.
The Ramsey Group was well organized and had high efficiency.
Before she could defend herself, the HR manager said with a smile, "According to our investigation and
the feedback from your colleagues, we confirm you neglect your duty and create conflicts between
colleagues at work. In addition, you lied on your resume. I am sorry, but you do not meet the
employment requirements of the Ramsey Group."
Daisy was suddenly fired. And her name immediately disappeared from the OA system. She had left
something in the office. But when she came back to fetch it, the access control system refused to let
her in.
Everyone was incredibly happy to hear the news.
When Natalie came out with her notebook after a meeting, she walked past Sam's working desk and
saw him carefully cleaning it.
When Sam heard Daisy had been fired in the morning, he was so happy that he wanted to let off
fireworks at Ramsey Industrial Park to celebrate it. Daisy had not done him any favor and often
rejected his requests for no reason. And he had even humbly begged her several times.
But he soon realized Natalie was not simple and suspected she was also some executive's woman. He
could not afford to offend her, but he could avoid her. So, he instantly decided to stay away from her.
"Are you moving away?"
Although Natalie had come for only a few days, she was good at saying hypocritical words in the
workplace.
Sam showed a fake smile and said, "Yes, I'm going to move to the front. Your team should sit together
for better communication."
It was a good place with excellent natural light. Since he had moved here, he had quickly gotten a
promotion and pay raise.
"Thank you."
Natalie happily accepted his kind offer.
Sam's attitude was exceptionally friendly when he replied, "You're welcome. Go for it! I believe you will
achieve 200% of the goal."
After cleaning the desk, he soon left, thinking he was smart. Fortunately, he had only secretly
complained about her instead of having a confrontation with her. In this way, he could advance, attack,
or retreat with ease. He had worked in the advertising and media circle for ten years, so he had a good
sense of proportion.

When the budget was approved, the communication with Royce's team was also completed.
He was not famous now, so he had not signed a contract with any big MCN company. Therefore, it
would be easy to talk over the contract.
Natalie handed the matter over to Sadie. She was busy every day, so she assigned such detailed work
to her team members.
Sadie looked at the contract and uncertainly asked, "Natalie, why are we signing a five-year contract
with him?"
Natalie took Flower Face's Crimson Fairy lipstick out of her bag and carefully applied it on her lips in
front of the makeup mirror.
Then, she turned to face Sadie and asked, "How do I look?"
Sadie flattered her, saying, "You look great. It made you look more fair-skinned."
Natalie laughed, "That's it?"
Sadie frowned, unable to think of any other suitable adjectives for now.
Natalie showed a pretty smile and said, "You should say the color of the lipstick is terrific! It sets off my
fair skin and makes me the prettiest woman in the office. And it's very suitable for daily makeup in
autumn and winter. Every girl must have one!"
Sadie was speechless.
Natalie put the lipstick back into her bag and said, "If you say it this way, your words will sound more
contagious and make others more willing to buy it."
She sent Royce's live broadcast to Sadie and said, "He praises every lipstick with diffident words. He is
a language genius. Believe me! You will want to place an order after watching it."
Sadie was convinced.
Today was Sadie's birthday, so Nia booked a private room in a restaurant and bought a cake to
celebrate it.
Nia sent Natalie a message, asking, "Natalie, today is Sadie's birthday. Would you like to have dinner
with us?"
They were working in the same project team, and all the team members were hard-working and
honest, so Natalie readily agreed.
But she must inform Kendrick in advance. He had not come to the company today because he had
gone to the Ramsey family to report to Seth on the progress of the work. And he had fetched a thing in
passing.
On the way back home, he received Natalie's message.
"Okay, come home early."
"We will go to see a movie after dinner, " Natalie replied with a crying emoji. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
They had never gone to see a movie together for several reasons. But now, she was going to watch a
movie with others?
"You owe me a movie. When will you go with me?"
"On Sunday! I have already selected the movie. We will watch it after the medical check."
Then, she sent him a long string of hearts, dazzling his eyes.
Kendrick smiled, took out an exquisite velvet square box from the gift bag beside him, and opened it,
revealing a delicate silver bracelet.
