My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul

"You all..." At that moment, Natalie's voice came from behind them.

Austin, Hank, and the hotel staff turned around to see her.

Natalie's eyes were slightly red, but only noticeable if one looked closely. Her mood seemed a bit down.

Just as she was thinking about going back to her room to touch up her makeup and improve her appearance, she found several people standing there.

After ensuring everything was fine, the hotel staff left.

The moment Austin saw Natalie, he noticed Natalie's unusual demeanor. He asked, "Is something wrong?"

Hank came to his senses. He glanced at the worried Austin. "I came to find you because you didn't respond to my calls and messages. We had to get the hotel staff involved. Are you okay?"

"I'm fine. I just went out for a bit. My phone... it must have accidentally been set to silence. Sorry, I didn't notice," Natalie said.

She pulled out her phone and looked at it. It seemed she had hit the mute button when she received Jeremy's call.

At that time, she hadn't noticed it at all.

Austin's gaze grew somber.

Natalie entered the room. "I bought quite a few things. We can eat together now."

Hank watched Austin closely. He almost wanted to remind Austin that Natalie was still married. Fortunately, Austin had never lost his composure at crucial moments.

"Perfect. I'm hungry," Austin said.

Hank checked the time. "We have half an hour before we need to leave. We should eat something now."

Otherwise, they would end up starving by the end of the night.

Natalie wasn't really in a good mood. It was clear she had something on her mind. When she was

preoccupied, she talked nonstop. However, neither Austin nor Blank mentioned anything about it.

It wasn't until half an hour later, when they were heading downstairs to leave for the event that they understood the reason for Natalie's low mood. They happened to see Jeremy getting into a nearby car.

Jeremy glanced at Natalie and then at Austin as the car window rolled up.

On the way, they didn't exchange a word. The atmosphere was tense and strange.

Hank felt as if someone had a chokehold on him, making his breathing slightly constricted. Turning to Austin, he asked quietly, "What did Jeremy's look just now mean?"

It seemed like his gaze was assessing Austin as a rival.

Austin had always been calm, even when he harbored feelings for Natalie that she remained unaware of. Yet, Jeremy's look suggested he knew more than he should.Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

Austin's demeanor was cold.

The distance and coldness from Austin made Hank deeply

uncomfortable. He was all too

familiar with Austin's tendencies et

and this situation only confirmed his suspicions. It felt like Austin was detiberately complicating things for himself.

Hank glanced at Natalie. She had applied light everyday makeup in the restroom, which improved her appearance considerably.

However, when she saw Jeremy just

now, her expression changed

noticeably. Even though she had applied foundation and blush, they couldn't conceal the brief moment of bewilderment on her face.

Anyone with eyes could see that something was amiss between Natalie and Jeremy. Hank had always doubted that Natalie and Jeremy's reunion would end well.

Given Natalie's stubborn nature, it was hard to imagine her accepting Jeremy's past infidelities.

Once they were in the car, the silence was palpable. Hank decided not to make things worse by speaking. Instead, he pondered how to deal with the ongoing challenges he anticipated.
