Chapter 866
The staff said, “I don’t know them, but they look like a great match.”
“I do know them. I think I saw them in a financial news report. The guy is Jeremy Hughes, the CEO of Hughes Group.”
“Damn it! Since when did Helena get such a powerful backer? They must be on a trip together, right?”
The accompanying staff weren’t aware of Natalie’s relationship with Jeremy. So they chatted about the gossip openly in front of her.
Natalie followed their gazes to where Jeremy and Helena were.
She saw Helena talking to Jeremy. Although she couldn’t hear the conversation, Helena’s gaze was clearly fixed on Jeremy.
Jeremy looked down at Helena. When their eyes met, it gave off a sense of mutual affection.
Anyone seeing this scene would likely sigh and think they were a perfect match.
Hank exchanged a concerned glance with Austin. They were worried about Natalie.
Although Natalie and Jeremy had divorced, they had once been close. Seeing her ex–husband with someone new must be difficult for her.
Austin studied Natalie carefully.
Natalie glanced at them briefly before turning away and saying to her colleagues, “I’m going to the
restroom.”
For some reason, probably because of Jeremy’s recent outburst in her apartment, she felt uncomfortable and didn’t want to face him directly.
“Alright, go ahead.”
As Natalie walked to the restroom, Jeremy cast a sharp, cold gaze in her direction.
His gaze landed precisely on her, as if he had observed Natalie’s every move moments before.
Hank noticed this and whispered to Austin, “It looks like Jeremy still can’t let go of Natalie.”
Austin’s expression remained neutral as he replied, “He can’t let go, but he’s still cheating.”
His words struck right at the heart of the matter.
Hank rubbed his nose, realizing that Austin’s words were spot on.
But Natalie, with her strong personality, could not tolerate infidelity. If she were the type to accept such things, she might still be the pampered Mrs. Hughes.
When Natalie emerged from the restroom, she ran into Helena by the sink.
Helena seemed unsurprised to see her.
“What a coincidence!” Helena greeted first.
Natalie smiled and replied, “Yes, it really is.”
“I heard Mr. Powell is heading to Fachington to film. It’s going to be a few months, right?” Helena asked.

Their conversation was casual, like
at of friends.
