A frown appeared on Natalie’s face.
What the hell? Why did I meet so many people tonight?
Natalie turned her head around, slightly annoyed.
A good-looking man in a Hawaiian shirt was standing a few meters away, staring at her.
Seeing her turn round, he immediately ran up to her with a smile blossoming on his face. “It’s really you! I thought I had mistaken you for someone else.”
He reached out to touch her shoulder as he said that.
Displeased, she pursed her lips and stepped out of his reach. “May I know who you are?”
“Huh? Don’t you remember me? I’m Trix Davidson,” the man exclaimed, pointing to himself.
“Trix?” She paused, racking her brain. A moment later, she finally remembered who he was. “Oh, it’s you.”
Like Hannah, Trix was from J University as well. Due to his attractive appearance and wealthy family, he was quite a prominent figure during the time they studied there.
I certainly did not expect to see two acquaintances from university tonight.
“Yeah, I’m Trix.” Seeing that she still remembered him, he nodded excitedly. “Natalie, you’re even more beautiful than you were seven years ago.”
While he was speaking, his eyes were leering suggestively at her face and body.
Sick of his lascivious gaze, she frowned in disgust, but soon responded with a polite smile. “Thanks.”
“Natalie, where have you been for the past few years? Why did you drop out of school back then?” He rubbed his hands, acting like an old friend of hers.
Natalie’s face stiffened upon hearing that.
Are we even that close? Why is being so nosy?
Although she found him repulsive, she kept her cool and gave him a vague answer. “I went abroad.”
“Oh, really? When did you come back here?” he probed further.
Getting impatient, the smile on her face slipped away as she replied, “I’ve been back for quite some time.”
As she was speaking, she saw a familiar Bentley coming toward the entrance from the corner of her eye.
She flashed a smile at the car, and after the car had come to a stop at a parking space nearby, she turned to Trix and said, “Mr. Davidson, I shall take my leave now.”
“Where are you going? Let me drive you to your house.” He took out his car keys from his pocket and dangled them in his hand, purposely showing off the car brand logo to her.
However, she found his action funny and tried her best to suppress her laugh. After calming herself down, she declined him monotonously, “It’s okay. Thank you for your offer.”
Trix turned furious upon hearing her rejection, but when he looked at her gorgeous face and shapely figure, his anger tapered down.
Not giving up, he took out his phone and asked shamelessly, “If so, can we exchange numbers then? We used to go to the same university after all. I hope you won’t reject me this time.”
“I…” She frowned, finding herself in a tight spot.
As Natalie was struggling to find a way to turn him down, a familiar female voice suddenly came from behind her. “Trix, I’ve asked someone from the customer service just now. He said there are no more umbrellas left for rent. What should we…”
Her voice trailed off the moment she saw Natalie with Trix. Her facial expression changed in an instant. “Natalie?”
Natalie also raised her brows in surprise. “What a coincidence, Hannah. We meet again.”
On the other hand, Hannah turned grim and did not say a word to her.
Trix cast his gaze upon her. “Hannah, you’ve met Natalie already?”
Suddenly, Hannah noticed that Natalie was standing rather close to Trix.
Like a lion whose territory had been invaded, she quickly placed her hand on his elbow and stared at Natalie with a vigilant look, questioning furiously, “Why are you here?”
“This is the entrance of the entertainment hub. Is it a strange thing for me to be here?” Natalie could not help but frown at her, wondering why she asked such a silly question.
Hannah tightened her grip on Trix and said in a warning tone of voice, “I don’t care why you’re here. Natalie, don’t make a move on someone you shouldn’t even be eyeing.”
