Chapter 291

The matter about Harry and Elena was finally settled. Natalie did not know what method Tucker had

used. Emily didn’t call Natalie again to bother her or go to the hospital to cause trouble after Elena died.

Harry’s death sentence was internal news, and it would take a few more days for the official sentence

to start. Natalie had no intention of attending it.

Time passed day by day. Unknowingly, it was the day for Harry’s sentence, Natalie acted as if nothing

had happened and went to work as usual.

Every evening, she would go to the Wilson’s residence for dinner. After dinner, she would return to

Evergreen Gardens and spend time alone with Trevon, while Jasper would be left in the Wilson’s

residence. Jasper liked staying there because everyone doted on him.

Although Jasper was young, he was smart enough.

Trevon was glad to stay alone with Natalie. Even so, he still went to the Wilson’s residence every day.

Natalie knew that he missed Jasper a lot. It was just that he pretended to be calm on the surface.

Time passed quickly. It was almost time to go to Sapphire City. At that moment, Natalie was sitting in

front of her office writing a request for leave.

Just as Natalie finished writing her name, Sherri pushed the door open and entered in her high heels.

The sound of her high heels hitting the floor was loud. Sherri sat down on the chair facing Natalie and

stretched out her hand. “Give me a leave slip

Natalie continued what she was doing and did not look up, parting her lips and asking. There’s no

surgery today. So, you even put on high heels?”

With that, she put down her pen and took a blank leave slip from the drawer. Then, she handed it to

Sherri and picked up the pen on the table to continue.

Sherri took the leave slip. She pretended to be shy and stroked her hair, looking a little pretentious.

“Didn’t Hackett buy me a new batch of high heels recently? It’s a waste to hide them.”

Natalie raised her head and stared at Sherri fixedly. She was happy in her heart to hear that, yet she

still teased. “You’re showing off your love. You can be more straightforward and say that Hackett loves

you so much.”

Sherri held her chin with one hand and tilted her head slightly. She smiled slyly and said, “I’m just afraid

that you don’t know what he has done.”

Natalie raised a hand to stop Sherri. “Enough. You don’t have to explain more. I’m sure and certain that

Hackett loves you.”

Sherri nodded vigorously to indicate that Natalie was telling the truth. “That’s right.”

Natalie could not bear to look at Sherri’s face, which was filled with happiness and satisfaction when in

deep love. Sherri almost wrote Hackett’s name on her forehead and told everyone in the world that

they loved each other. Natalie immediately changed the topic. “I plan to take seven days off to

accompany my aunt and the others. I don’t know when I’ll be able to return to Sapphire City again after

this trip. I can’t take leave every month.”

Sherri thought it made sense. Recently, she had been slacking all the time. After she came back from

Sapphire City, she had. to work hard again. So, she replied without thinking, “I’ll take seven days too.

My annual leave is all saved up when I was single. Now, it can finally be used.

“Oh, by the way, did you ask Trevon about holding the wedding together with me? Why are you

dawdling? What else can I count on you for?”

Sherri asked with disdain.

Natalie felt awkward and coughed a few times. She tried to find an excuse and defended herself.

“There’s a reason for that. Coupled with what happened to Harry and Elena these few days, I felt a little

uncomfortable and forgot to ask about it.” When Sherri heard Natalie’s words, her heart ached a little,

and she did not care about Natalie’s dawdling anymore. She paused in the process of signing and

looked up to comfort Natalie.

However, only one second later, Sherri reacted. Natalie had never shown her weakness or

unhappiness in front of Sherri Instead, she was always pretending to be a strong woman. Sherri saw

through Natalie’s intention and exposed her. “Your sadness has overshadowed your joy? Stop acting in

front of me.

“Your acting skills are not as good as nympho.”

Sherri said in disdain

Seeing that she had been exposed, Natalie chuckled and smiled ingratiatingly. “Darling. I promise to tell

him when I get back and complete the mission you assign me today. Give me another chance.”

Sherri was satisfied with Natalie’s attitude. She compromised and pretended to put on airs when she

saw Natalie begging for merry. “That’s more like it. I’ll wait for your news tonight.”

Natalie quickly made an OK gesture

They had just finished writing their leave slips when Rose came in anxiously “Give me a leave slip.”

Natalie laughed and gave her a leave slip. “It seems that my consultation room has become the

personnel department. Where’s your leave slip””

Rose pushed Sherri’s shoulder. “Stand there for a while and leave the chair to me. Perhaps because

the staff from the personnel department thought that I didn’t need a leave slip, they didn’t give me one.”

Sherri stood up and complained, Lady, don’t you see I’m wearing high heels? Aren’t you feeling

ashamed to ask me to stand aude?”

Rose took a pen and glanced at Sherri’s ankles. “Won’t you feel tired wearing such high heels? I

admire you indeed.

“I can only accept flats, and wearing high heels is torture to me. The heels of your shoes are so high.

How uncomfortable it is to squeeze your toes together.”

As she spoke. Rose gave a vivid example with her hands. After saying that, she shook her head.

Natalie agreed. She did not wear high heels either. It was because they were indeed not very

comfortable and incomparable to sports shoes or canvas shoes.

However, her aunt still bought a few pairs of high heels for her. Flats were comfortable, and high heels

were graceful. Each of them had its special merits.

Sherri sighed. “Don’t you think they are beautiful and elegant?”

Rose shook her head. “I don’t think so. My future husband must be someone who doesn’t mind me

wearing flats.”

Speaking of which, Rose thought of Edward. For some reason, she could not help but ask, “Sherri, can

I ask you something?”

“Go ahead. I’ll tell you everything I know, except for the password to my bank card”

Rose was a little speechless. “You stingy woman. Who cares about your money? Moreover, you should

be rich now”

Sherri supported herself with one hand on the table and raised her butt high, saying proudly. I’ve

returned the shares to the Blackwell family. Now, Harkett is a real rich. My father gave him 10% of the

shares in the Landor Group, and I’ve also transferred the 80% under my name to him.”

Rose recalled how Frank had asked Grace for the secret map and guessed, “Is it for the position of the

Blackwell family in Athana?”

Natalie agreed. “It should be. If others find out that the shares of the Blackwell Group are all under

Sherri’s name, it might be trending. It was probably your father’s idea.”

Sherri nodded. “That’s right. My father said that he doesn’t lack money. Besides, as long as I don’t get

a divorce, the money is all mine. Hackett took the initiative to hand his bank cards to me. I didn’t force

him.”

Natalie and Rose clicked their tongues and could not help but despise Sherri a little. Sherri did not stop

talking about how well Hackett had treated her and doted on her. During these few days, she almost

talked their ear off.

Rose had just been recruited and had no annual leave. She could not take seven days off but only four

days. The reason she wrote was that her period was coming and that she could not get out of bed and

needed to rest for four days.

Sherri looked at it and felt embarrassed for Rose. She burst into laughter and could not help but say,

“Isn’t your excuse a little too unreasonable? I’ll remind you kindly. The head of the personnel

department is a man.”

Rose did not care at all and signed her name gracefully. “I think it is proper. After all, I’m a normal

woman. Besides, to become the head of the personnel department, he should be old enough. He

should understand me unless his wife has

menopause.”

Natalie reminded Rose calmly with a hint of embarrassment. “Is it possible that he has a wife, but his

wife can get out of bed during her period? So, he might not be able to understand how you feel.”

Hearing Natalie’s words, Rose was a little hesitant. “Do you have another blank leave slip? I’d like to

find another excuse. What can I say? My brother isn’t married, and Grace and William aren’t divorcing

either. Can I fill it in for treatment for infertility?”

Rose muttered to herself as she racked her brain to think of an excuse.

Natalic happened to take a sip of water. Hearing that, she choked and coughed non-stop.

Sherri thought, “Can’t there be any other excuse? Obviously. Rose is not good at telling lies.

“Even if her parents get a divorce, does the need to take leave for it? Does she need four days to relax

her mood? What the hell is the treatment for infertility?”
