Kent was no longer the person in charge of the project.
Sebastian wasn’t particularly concerned that Kent was working with Natalie at first. But when he saw that Kent had asked her out
with an obviously ulterior motive, he decided to secretly pull sstrings so Kent would get into trouble and he would be busy
sorting out the issue for the tbeing instead of harassing Natalie.
“Kent has been replaced by someone else. You can rest assured now.” Garrett had cto report the latest developments to
Sebastian. He asked, “Why don’t you just cancel the project once and for all? You would be able to avoid any more trouble that
way, right?”
“There would be no need for that. I just want to stop Natalie from contacting him. Also, I don’t want to destroy her project. She’s
really investing her all in it. Creating trouble for Kent would see to it that he wouldn’t have tto keep in contact with Natalie.”
Sebastian browsed through the document in his hands. His legs were crossed and he looked so serious.
A few minutes later, he picked up a pen and appended his signature on the document quickly. Garrett collected the document
and got ready to leave. He said, “I think you should deal with this matter as soon as possible. It would put a stop to the incessant
quarrels between you and your wife. By the way, have you guys made up?”
“Yes, we have. She’s no longer angry withfor now. Please keep an eye on Charis for me. She seems to be up to something.
If she does anything suspicious, don’t hesitate to inform me.” Sebastian had hesitated for a while before he made that statement.
He didn’t want to say it, but he thought it wise to do so. Garrett understood exactly what he meant.
With a slight frown, he questioned, “Why do you wantto keep tabs on her? Is there a misunderstanding? Charis is not that
kind of woman.”
They went back a long way, so Garrett subconsciously put in a good word for Charis. It seemed like she could do no wrong in his
eyes. Sebastian shot him a glare without uttering another word. This sent a shiver down Garrett’s spine.
Taking the cue, he spun on his heel and went out. He thought, “Jeez! Sebastian was so scary just now. Anyway, it’s between him
and Charis. I had better bridle my tongue next time.”
It took Natalie a week to finish the design of the new uniform for the employees of the Perkins Bank. The project had been
proposed by Kent in order to get close to Natalie. It was not difficult. Tiffany went with Natalie to the Perkins Bank to finalize
things.

On the way, she said, “Quinn, I think you could beca project leader in the nearest future.” She always had an eye for talent.
Her comment just now wasn’t intended for flattery. She indeed saw that Natalie had great potential.
“Really? This is my first independent project.” Natalie was stunned by the praise she had just gotten. It was surprising because
becoming a project leader wasn’t a piece of cake. No one in the design department had ever attained that level within a short
time.
“So what if it’s your first? Believewhen I say that it wouldn’t be a problem. It’s rare for a new designer to successfully take on
a project alone. You are a rare breed. Something tellsthat the management won’t slack on you.” Tiffany continued to shower
praises on Natalie as she drove.
Meanwhile, Charis received a call from Kent.
“What’s the Larson Group up to? Why does it seem like you are deliberately attacking the Perkins family? Are you asking for
war?” Kent fumed immediately after the line connected.
“Hey, take it easy with the allegations. I didn’t make any trouble for you. I advise that you look for Brandon,” Charis explained
calmly. She had gotten wind of how trouble had suddenly started for Kent and how he had to divert his attention to solving it
while Natalie continued with the project. She also knew that Brandon was intentionally protecting Natalie.
“Damn it!” Kent cursed from the other end of the line.
He had heard of the mysterious CEO of the Larson Group—Brandon. Although he had never met him in person before, he knew
that such a man wasn’t to be trifled with. Now, he could only curse him to vent his anger.
“I’m sorry for going off on you. Please, I need you to doa favor. Can you find a way to ask Natalie out?” Despite all that was
happening to him, Kent didn’t want to give up.
He was obsessed with Natalie. He hadn’t seen her for sdays, but he couldn’t stop thinking about her. Charis was naturally a
stubborn woman, but she didn’t dare to act rashly recently. Sebastian had warned her seriously, so she had to tread with caution
in dealing with Kent.
“I would love to help you, but I don’t have tfor now. As you know, I just got back into the country. I have a lot of things to do at
work. Please, don’t callfrom now onwards. I will get into trouble if word gets out that I’m linked with you.”.. Charis hung up
the phone as soon as she finished speaking. She decided it was high tshe reduced the way she kept in contact with Kent.

To create a rift between Sebastian and Natalie, she had incited Kent to chase after Natalie. But he failed.
On her part, she had also failed to make Sebastian dislike his wife. Every part of her big plan failed woefully. Charis couldn’t help
feeling dejected. After she got off work, she went to a restaurant for dinner. She had just finished making her order when a
familiar face appeared in front of her.
This familiar face belonged to Luke Turner, her father. He was here to have dinner with a younger woman.
Charis rested her chin on her hand and stared at her father’s new girlfriend, who was very beautiful. Luke was totally into women
who were more than half his age.
Even though Luke was married and had a wife, he hooked up with every woman he saw and changed girlfriends often
Such things were common in wealthy families. Considering her mother didn’t mind it, Charis didn’t seem about her father’s affairs
either.
After all. Luke had been a good father, and Charis liked him. He had never said no to her and always got what she wanted.
Noticing that Cassie was constantly looking back, Luke smiled and stroked her flawless face.
“What are you staring at? It looks like you want to say something but are hesitant for sreason.”
“Mr. Turner, does that woman know you?” Cassie asked gently. Luke turned around. The smile on his face froze when he saw
Charis. He quickly averted his gaze and stood up.
“Let’s go and say hi to her.”
Before Cassie could react, Luke dragged her toward Charis. Charis arched an eyebrow and looked at Cassie before a slow smile
emerged on her face.
“Good choice, Dad,” she joked.
