Chapter 116 Back To The Dawson House Again
Natalia was busy today.
She had made preparations for the launch in advance, but she knew how important such an event
could be for a new brand making its debut.
Moreover, the brand had decided to use some new models in this show. She must do a lot of extra
work in advance just in case. It could be easily imagined how busy and complicated that would be.
Therefore, Natalia couldn't help getting nervous.
But she could always control her emotions. However nervous she was, she looked just at ease.
When the show was about to begin, she went to comfort the models and have a chat with the designer.
The designs of U.MAX were known for their mix and match style and their focus on the younger
generation. The main target of the brand was people aged eighteen to thirty, the group of people who
had the strongest spending power for fashion products.
This time, the models would wear ten of their flagship items and a score of other items in the show.
Only after Natalia had checked on the designer clothes her artists were about to wear did she feel
relieved.
The launch began at two in the afternoon.
With the lights on and the music played, the models showed their runway walk.
Under the dreamlike lights, the models in good shape walked out one by one. Every item on them
looked elegant and graceful.
As a superstar and the brand ambassador, Curtis was the last one to come on the stage.
He was wearing a leather jacket, looking casual and handsome.
Plenty of his fans were present and waves of purple bulbs had already flooded around the stage
supporting their idol. When he came out, screams and cheers went up from the crowd.
Natalie looked at it behind the stage and curled her lips.
Then there was an organizer who came to talk to her, "Miss Dawson, you can even sign with a
superstar like Curtis. I am a bit envious."
He was the senior manager of Annie International and they sometimes worked together, so he was no
stranger to Natalie.
Natalie smiled and said, "I am just lucky."
Nobody knew that Curtis and she were old friends.
They just thought that Natalie was lucky enough to sign with Curtis.
Even so, it would be more than enough to get plenty of people envious.
As they continued talking, Natalie's phone buzzed a few times.
She looked down and took a glimpse at the screen and her gaze turned cold.
As Natalie's phone rang, the manager waved goodbye to Natalie and got down to his own business.
Natalie answered the phone with a cold expression.
"Where are you?"
When Natalie picked up the phone, she heard a very powerful and bossy voice of an old woman.
Natalie sneered, "What's up?"
"We'll have a guest tonight. You should come home."
Natalie frowned.
A guest?
Did it have anything to do with her?
The relations between her and her family had been very tense since their last fight. What kind of guest
were they having and they needed her to be there?
She refused without hesitation, "I am busy."
"Natalie, now you have hooked up with Mr. McCarthy, and you dare to refuse to listen to my words.
Anyway, I am your grandmother. You're a member of the Dawson family. I can let you do whatever you
like to do in the outside, but what you've done recently has damaged the reputation of the Dawson
family. I can't let you do it at will, so you must come back tonight!"
Natalie frowned.
"What are you talking about? Damaging the reputation of the Dawson family?"
"I'll tell you when you come back. Now is not a good time."
Natalie paused for a moment.
Natalie suddenly thought about the place where she tailed after Jessica. She rolled her eyes and
replied, "I see."
After hanging up the phone, Natalie sent a text message to Archie.
She told him that she couldn't go back home for dinner and might come back late.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the message was sent, her mobile phone rang.
Natalie was slightly astonished and answered the phone.
The man's low and sexy voice came from the other end.
"You are going to meet your family?"
Natalie said yes.
"Do I need to keep you company?"
"No need. I can go back myself."
"..."
Archie was silent for a while and didn't push in.
He was better than anyone that Natalie was a tough woman.
However, he still reminded her, "Be safe and call me if anything happens to you." Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
"Well, got it."
...
At six in the evening.
She called it a day and went to the Dawson family by car.
As soon as she got off the car, she saw a black Bentley parked not far away.
She was somewhat surprised.
Natalie had never seen anyone in the Dawson family drive such a car.
There seemed to be a guest in the villa.
She gazed at the villa, deliberating, strode out and walked into it.
"Miss Natalie, welcome back."
It was David that opened the door. He kept smiling when he saw Natalie.
Natalie had no idea whether David was sincere or not. However, David was the only one that would
smile at her in the Dawson family.
She didn't reply but put on a faint smiled and nodded.
"They are waiting for you in the living room!"
"Alright."
Natalie put on her slippers and walked into the living room.
As expected, not only Clara, Philip and Aleena, but a fat middle-aged man was there.
Natalie knew that man, a partner of Dawson Group, named Randy Kruf.
He had wide contacts. He did well in both underworld and the business field. His connections reached
both the authority and the underworld.
It was said that he got married once. His wife couldn't stand being tortured and committed suicide
jumping off a building.
Natalie didn't know if it was the fact, but she didn't think it further. She walked in and greeted them.
"Grandma, Dad."
Natalie ignored Aleena.
A hint of embarrassment flashed across her face. Aleena stood up and said with a smile, "You talk. I go
to the kitchen to check on the dinner."
Clara didn't blame Natalie for showing no respect as usual but nodded.
"Go ahead. By the way, call Jessica and Shawn and asked them when they could come back."
"Yes."
After Aleena left, Natalie walked to the other side of the sofa and sat down.
"Why do you call me back?"
Clara fixed her gaze on Natalie.
Looking at the delicate and cold look, and her good figure, Clara had mixed feelings in her heart.
To be honest, Natalie was more beautiful than Jessica.
If Natalie played her part well, she could help the Dawson family go further and became more
prosperous.
However, Natalie had such a quirky mother, who had made her so headstrong and willful since she was
still young.
And for what happened last time they met, Clara hated Natalia to the core now.
