Chapter 257 “Jesus, Gracia, you could've burned Natalie's face off with that coffee! if you had, you'd be toast, | swe Rosie thrust a finger at Gracia, her voice a pitch higher in outrage. “I'd rearrange that pretty little face of yours!” “Let it go.” Natalie's grip was firm as she pulled Rosie back from the brink of clawing at Gracia. Her voice was a low murmur, her brow furrowed with frustration, “Let's head back. She’s not worth the hassle Gracia stood there, gobsmacked, watching the farce they played.

While Natalie was trying to soothe Rosie, she glanced at Gracia and dismissed her with a wave of her hand.

“Would you mind leaving?” Then, in a whisper meant for Gracia alone, Natelie added, “Ever heard of victim complex, sweetheart?

That was when her phone rang with a video call from Brian.

After a brief pause, she answered.

“Gracia came clooking for you?” Brian's voice was muffled the phone leaning against a coffee thug as he multitasked on his computer. Natalie stayed silent, knowing Brian was busy.

The room fell still until the alarm from downstairs reached Brian's ears .He paused his gaze shifting to Natale. In a fleeting glance, he noticed the faint redness on her neck.
