Chapter 663 “Simply wait in the W Marks Stufirst. Natalie was so dedicated to her job that she wouldn’t even consider giving it up, even if she were to run away from home.
“Alright, I'll leave now.l'll track Mrs.Laron’s whereabouts after she finishes work in W Marks Studio.” Sean was a smart man and picked up what his boss meant immediately.
However, when he was about to hang up, Brandon’s voice cthrough low and ominous.
“Just follow Natalie from a distance and confirm her location.If you encounter anyone from the White family, please avoid conflicts with them.” Brandon didn’t want to pressure Natalie excessively and thought it best to give her stime.
It would be better for her to return after the matter had been fully resolved, that was, after Vivian's expulsion from the country.
“Mr.Larson, based on what occurred yesterday, did you engage in a physical altercation with the Whites?” Sean speculated about what might have occurred within the White family yesterday.
“Focus on your job responsibilities and refrain from asking too many questions.” Sean was so terrified by the tone of Brandon's voice that he promptly hung up the phone.
After the phone call, Brandon stood outside the door of their villa, feeling despondent.
As the cleaning lady opened the door and stepped outside, she noticed Brandon and quickly motioned towards her thigh while reporting, “Sir, Mrs.Larson has left with her suitcase!” “I'm aware.” Brandon entered the villa and took a seat on the sofa.
Brandon glanced around at the furniture in the room.
Although Natalie didn’t appear to have taken many items with her, he still felt a sense of emptiness in the house and couldn't shake off the lonely feeling.
As Natalie ascended the stairs of the W Marks Stuwith her bulky suitcase, she started to regret packing so many unnecessary items in it.
Elizabeth turned around after hearing a gasp from behind her and noticed it was Natalie.
“May | assist you with that? What made you decide to carry your suitcase to work? Are you going on a business trip?” Natalie shook her head and remained silent.

She expressed gratitude towards Elizabeth for assisting her with the suitcase.
Afterward, she returned to her seat and started her day of work.
“Natalie seems strange today.” Elizabeth scowled and muttered to herself.
Upon observing Natalie’s pale complexion, she approached her with concern.
“You don't look well, Natalie.What's wrong?” Cup of coffee in hand, Elizabeth approached Natalie.Her knee caught the edge of Natalie’s suitcase.
“Sorry,” Natalie said, quickly moving her suitcase.
She stared at the steaming coffee on the table, lost in thought.
Noticing that Natalie seemed strangely vacant, Elizabeth waved her hand and said, “What's on your mind? You haven't heard a word I've said, have you?” “I'm sorry. just didn’t sleep well last night.Don’t worry.” Natalie returned to her senses, smiled, and tried to concentrate on her work.
“Well, | should get back to work.” Elizabeth looked at Natalie and then at the suitcase.
Shaking her head, she returned to her desk.
At dusk, when most of her colleagues had left, Natalie packed up her things.She didn’t know where she should go, so she decided to find a hotel for the tbeing.
Elizabeth hadn't left.
When she saw Natalie struggling with the suitcase, she asked, “Would you like to stay at my aunt's place tonight, Natalie? She hasn't seen you for such a long tand keeps asking when you'll visit.” Earlier, Elizabeth had spoken to Draco and established that Natalie wasn't due to go on a business trip.
Natalie's reason for bringing a suitcase to the stuwas not work related.
Had she quarreled with Brandon? Natalie liked Sophia, Elizabeth’s aunt, but was still hesitant.
“But aren't you going on a date?” She had heard a car horn outside, and when she checked who it was, she saw Frank.
He must have cto collect Elizabeth for a date.
“It doesn’t matter.It's not an important date.” Elizabeth smiled.
Frank was making her angry recently.
Elizabeth thought she could use this opportunity to punish him.
Noticing that Natalie was still unsure, Elizabeth picked up her suitcase and said, “Let's go.
You don't have to tellwhat happened if you don’t want to.
But we're friends, okay? At least letstay with you.” “What about your date with Frank?” Natalie asked.
In an apologetic tone, she added, “I can stay in a hotel.” Elizabeth grabbed her hand, and they went downstairs together.
“Don’t worry.Frank will be fine about it.” Frank saw the suitcase in Elizabeth's hand and was confused.
“Why are you carrying a suitcase?” Then he noticed Natalie behind her.
Frank looked around.He frowned and asked, “Didn’t Brandon cto pick you up, Natalie?” “Don’t mention that nto me.” Natalie's eyes darkened.
Frank understood.

Raising his eyebrows, he put the suitcase into the trunk.
“Where are we going? Should we find a hotel for Natalie?” “Drive us to Aunt Sophia’s place.She’s been missing Natalie.” Elizabeth got into the passenger seat and fastened her seat belt.
The light in Frank's eyes dimmed.He avoided Natalie’s gaze and cautiously whispered in Elizabeth's ear.
“Didn’t we agree to go to my place tonight?” “I've changed my mind.If you don’t want to drive us, we can take a taxi.” Frank didn’t know what to say.Natalie tittered in the back seat.
“But we agreed to watch a movie together,” Frank grumbled before starting the engine.
On their way, Frank touched Elizabeth's shoulder and asked quietly, “Did Natalie quarrel with Brandon and run away from home?” Elizabeth glanced at Natalie, concerned.
She tightened her lips and grabbed Frank's hand.
“Natalie is struggling today.Don’t ask why.She’ll tellwhen she’s ready.” When they arrived at Sophia's place, it was already dinner time.
They rang the doorbell twice, and Sophia opened the door.She was wearing an apron.
“Natalie, how wonderful to see you again.Elizabeth didn’t tellyou were coming, or | would have made more food.” Sophia smiled at Natalie, grasped her hand and led her into the apartment.
The room was filled with the aroma of hcooking, Looking at the dishes on the table, Natalie smiled, “There are already plenty of dishes here.” Sophia's smile brightened.
She noticed Natalie's suitcase and said, “Feel free to stay here for as long as you want.Just think of this as your own home.” Moved by her words, Natalie said, “Thank you, Aunt Sophia.l might need to stay for a few days.” Sophia was a wonderful cook.
The fish and roast chicken dishes were sensational.
Natalie forgot her troubles and focused on the delicious flavors.
“Try the lobster.Frank bought it when he heard Elizabeth likes seafood.He brought us mountains of the stuff.”
