After a few seconds of silence, she raised her head again with a different attitude.
“Well, I’m willing to believe in Natalie’s innocence.”
Hearing this, Natalie breathed a sigh of relief.
But Mrs.Fuller’s attitude had changed too fast, which left her feeling a little confused.She locked at Brandon questioningly, trying to lock for answers, but he just smiled back at her as though he had expected such a reaction.
“Since the matter has been settled, Mrs.Fuller, maybe you should let them go back to their work.I’m very busy, so I’ve got to go as well.”
Despite his polite words, Brandon’s voice was incredibly cold and sent shivers down the spines of everyone in the room.
Without waiting for a response, Brandon stood up and walked out with his men.
Natalie followed him out and tugged at his sleeve.
“Why are you here?”.
Brandon put his arm around her shoulder and kissed her on the lips.
Winking at her, he said in alow and gentle voice, “Of course I couldn’t just stand by and watch as my wife was being framed.”
Natalie was unconvinced.
“Although you’ve managed to convince Mrs.Fuller, there were many reporters just now.They’ll spread the news. It’ll be difficult to deal with this matter once and for all.”
Brandon simply smiled.
“What’re you talking about? it’ll all be a piece of cake.”
As he spoke, Brandon took out his phone and made a call.
“We’re at W Marks.Come here and drive all the reporters outside away.Contact the media outlets.We’re going to buy off the news.”
Natalie’s eyes went as wide as saucers as she listened to what he said on the phone.
“Who did you call just now?” Natalie asked in shock.
“Sean.He’ll handle it,” Brandon answered, putting his phone away.
Sure enough, about ten minutes later, Sean arrived.
Brandon walked out the door of W Marks Studio.
Natalie could only watch them handle the situation from inside the studio.
“You don’t want to go against the Larson Group, do you?”
Sean stood in front of the group of reporters and spoke authoritatively.
“Since you’re taking our money, I’d better not hear about any of this on the news tomorrow.”
Before Sean came here, he had gotten his hands on all the bank accounts of these reporters.
After receiving the order from Brandon, he had transferred the money to their accounts.
When the journalists saw that a huge amount of money had been transferred into their accounts, they exchanged glances and knew what this was: a bribe.
“We’ll keep our mouths shut, nor will we make any comments that’ll affect the reputation ofW Marks.We’ll forget what happened today.”
The reporters promised.
Natalie watched from the doorway and was dumbfounded.
It turned out that cold hard cash saved the day.
“Money can really solve everything,” she murmured as she watched the reporters disperse.
To Brandon, she felt guilty.
“How much did you give them? They all look so thrilled!”
Brandon shrugged indifferently..
“If a problem can be solved with money, then why not use it to your advantage?”
Seeing the sad look on Natalie’s face, Brandon knew that she was still upset about the money spent.
“What’s with the long face? This is nothing, honey.I can afford it.”
Natalie had no idea that Brandon would come and save her skin today.
After all, he had been very busy with the Larson Group lately, so he must’ve carved out time for this.Her heart felt warm.
“Thank you, honey…”
He always showed up when she needed help most.
Meanwhile, Mrs.Fuller was still very disappointed.
She stood up angrily and was about to storm out in a huff.
Seeing this, Dalores couldn’t stay silent any longer.
She hurried to block Mrs.Fuller’s way and asked anxiously, “Are you just going to let Natalie go, Mrs.Fuller? She’s the reason why you won’t get to wear your dress!”
Dalores found it so strange.
The Fuller family was also wealthy.
Why were they so scared of Brandon? Mrs.Fuller stopped and narrowed her eyes at her.
“You’re Dalores, aren’t you? You’re the one who called me yesterday!” Dalores blinked in surprise..
“I did it for you, Mrs.Fuller!”.
Mrs.Fuller sneered at her in disdain.
“I know what you were really after, Dalores.But you should be kinder for your own good. You gave me false information so that I could make a fool out of myself here? So shady, don’t you think?”
“It’s not like that! Mrs.Fuller, please let me explain”
Dalores tried to redeem herself.
Mrs.Fuller impatiently raised her hand and cut her off abruptly.
“I don’t have time to listen to your ramblings.”
Then she broke into a smile and patted Dalores’s cheek, her eyes flashing dangerously.
Dalores’s heart leaped to her throat, and she couldn’t say a word. She could only watch as Mrs. Fuller walked past her, pale-faced and trembling.
The Fuller family was powerful and held a certain level of prestige in the design industry.
Since Mrs. Fuller had said so, she meant it.
Dalores’s expression darkened.
Now, she hated Natalie even more. She had planned to use Mrs. Fuller to kick Natalie out of the studio, but now she reaped what she sowed.
Mrs.Fuller and the reporters had all left, so this matter was temporarily settled.
Natalie watched as Mrs. Fuller walked away and breathed a sigh of relief.
“What did you show her?” she whispered to Brandon.
“Mrs.Fuller changed her mind left so way too fast. What’s on that last few pages you showed her?”
Brandon beckoned at one of his men to bring over the file. He turned to the last page and handed it to Natalie for her to see. “This is evidence that Mrs. Fuller has been keeping toy boys. To the eyes of the public, Mrs. Fuller and her husband love each other deeply.Little do they know how far that is from the truth. Mrs. Fuller has always been dissatisfied with her husband’s performance in bed, so she has been keeping several young men by her side. She didn’t want her dirty little secret to be exposed, so she had no choice but to let this go,” Brandon explained calmly.
Natalie felt a mix of surprise, confusion, and awe.
“How’d you even know?”
“Let’s just say that there’s no secret I can’t get my hands on. The business world is filled with plots and schemes, so it’s imperative that I have men constantly on the lookout for secrets. One day, they’ll come in handy,” Brandon said, his eyes taking on a cruel light.
“You’d better keep it a secret. Mrs. Fuller is known for being ruthless.” Natalie nodded.
She knew when to keep her mouth shut.
Now that the matter had been settled, Brandon intended to go back to his office. He looked around the studio and found that he hadn’t seen Draco.
“Why isn’t your boss here?”
“Mr.Wesley was supposed to meet with Mrs. Fuller this morning.But since Mrs.Fuller came here instead, I suppose Mr.Wesley is on his way back to the studio now,” Natalie said, glancing at her watch.
