A Cue For Love Chapter 1063

Chapter 1063 Dance

Heidi casually glanced around and saw Natalie had also attended the banquet. Her pupils constricted in shock, and she uttered through gritted teeth, “Why is she here? How is she qualified to attend a banquet like this?”

Hatred surged within Heidi when she looked at Natalie’s face. She could never forget the humiliation she had suffered that night. Not only was she mercilessly rejected by the man she loved at first sight, but she was also defiled by those three foul men.

Geert was absorbed in his conversation with his long-time acquaintances, so he did not hear Heidi’s words. On the other hand, Helma heard Heidi and shifted her gaze, following the latter’s line of vision. Sure enough, Natalie was standing somewhere in the banquet hall.

“That’s right. Why is she here? It seems that I underestimated her background. No wonder she could triumph over Olivia in the past,” Helma said in surprise.

Aside from how Geert had previously paid too much attention to Natalie, which caused Helma to feel slightly uncomfortable, Helma was actually quite fond of Natalie.

Helma thought Natalie was brilliant, attentive, and without ulterior motives, unlike some people in the business world who had always tried to butter up members of the Leitz family like her.

Helma handed the wine glass in her hand to Heidi. “Heidi, I’m going over to greet Ms. Nichols.”

Heidi curled her lips into a sneer. “Do as you wish, Helma, but I should warn you not to let Ms. Nichols’ plain appearance fool you. It would be best for you to keep a safe distance from her.”

“Heidi, I don’t think she’s as you say.”

A hint of resentment flashed across Heidi’s eyes. “Never judge a book by its cover. I just want to advise you not to jump to conclusions so quickly.”

Helma shot a distasteful look at Heidi and said, “That’s enough. Do not speak further. I am quite capable of discerning someone’s character on my own.”

Heidi felt displeased as Helma was reluctant to believe her even after her deliberate attempt to sully Natalie’s reputation.

Not long after Sebastian left, Natalie noticed Helma moving in her direction.

“Ms. Helma,” Natalie greeted Helma.

Helma beamed at Natalie. “This is such a coincidence. I didn’t anticipate bumping into you at this place. I thought you were incredible for being able to persuade Muse into making an appearance. Unexpectedly, we meet again here tonight. I suppose you are the girlfriend of one of the members of royalty?”

“Hmm?”

Natalie fell into a daze, listening to Helma.

“Ms. Helma, I’m not anyone’s girlfriend.”

“Natalie, I already think of you as my friend, so there’s no need to hide this from me.” Helma cracked a faint smile. “Otherwise, how could you attend Prince Jonathan’s birthday banquet today? After all, this is an event attended by His Majesty and his consorts.”

After listening to Helma’s elaboration, Natalie realized that things had been unusual since the very beginning.

“It’s really not what you think.”

“Are you still trying to keep me in the dark, Natalie?” Helma winked at Natalie. “Quit keeping me in suspense. Who’s the nobleman you’re dating? Is he from the Osborne family, or perhaps someone from the Nagai family? We should hang out more in the future and look for opportunities to collaborate in our businesses too.” NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

Natalie felt she had made herself clear, yet Helma was unwilling to accept her explanation.

She narrowed her eyes and uttered firmly, “That’s really not the case. Ms. Helma, you’ve misunderstood.”

At that moment, the lights in the banquet hall suddenly dimmed for the commencement of the first dance segment of the night.

Under everyone’s watchful gazes, Bastien, dressed in an exquisite and fitting tuxedo, slowly walked in Natalie and Helma’s direction.

The possible marriage between Bastien and the Leitz family was tacit knowledge to the crowd.

The Leitz family came from a long line of nobility, and Helma’s mother was the princess’ daughter, so Helma possessed a distinguished bloodline. Moreover, she was also famous among the elites of the society. Therefore, many considered Bastien and her a match made in heaven.

That thought did not just cross the onlookers’ minds. Even Helma shared the sentiment as she curled her lips and waited for the man she loved to ask her to join him for the first dance.
