Important Pillars of Gratia

"I… I stayed at the president's house for a while because I didn't have a place to stay recently. All of this is only temporary, ha ha!"

Under Anthony's piercing gaze, Natalie looked a little nervous.

She always had the feeling that Anthony was observing something.

Luckily, Natalie was smart and didn't say anything inappropriate.

Joana just nodded, turned around and walked over to Anthony with a smile.

In front of Anthony, She smiled brightly. Her charm as an adult woman is combined with her dazzling red lips.

"President, I brought you the cell phone you asked for from the United States!" Her voice is soft and sweet.

"Okay!"

Anthony didn't have too many expressions on his face. He also answered vaguely. His hands on his pants didn't move, but David, who was behind him, took the cell phone case very quickly.

"By the way, if Natalie stayed here, she would be away from the company. It's inconvenient for her to be able to go to work. I own a property close to the company, which happens to be vacant right now. I can let Natalie stay there for a while." Joana's soft fingers seemed to be playing with her hair in her ear, and her beautiful eyes looked like they had found an exciting toy.

Anthony's handsome and firm face is not changing.

He rarely smiled. Most of the time, he wore a face filled with ignorant and his eyes also showed alienation.

"No, Natalie has work to do here!" Anthony said calmly.

Joana was surprised, but then she smiled again. She didn't dare ask what kind of work Natalie was doing in his place.

"All right. President, here are some letters that have just arrived from America. Let me show you."

"Okay"

Anthony turned, and the two of them walked toward his study together.

As she walked, Joana reported some other work in her soft voice. His English sounded fluent.

The steps that Anthony took was steady. When he heard the report, he walked in the lead with his hands behind his back.

"David, the flowers in this vase are lovely. Did you take care of them?"

David answered with a smile. "The flower vase is from Miss Joana. Last year, she sent the flower vase to make the living room of this house more lively. But usually, I don't take care of the vase because Miss Joana will take care of the vase when she comes here."

"Oh... I see" Natalie nodded.

The flowers thrived, and everything bloomed. This vase seems to get frequent maintenance.

Joana is a conscientious person.

"Mrs. Joana is really great! Not to mention she is smiling and friendly with everyone."

"Yes, Miss Joana has been following young master since she graduated from Harvard. It could be said that Miss Joana is an important pillar of Gratia. Four years ago, when the young master was under stress due to his emotional problems, Miss Joana always encouraged him and took care of everything. Fortunately, the emotional problems are over, and Miss Joana's position is getting stronger in the company."

David is a very talkative person. When he mentioned Anthony's past, his face had a hurt expression on his face.

Natalie blinked. It seemed that Anthony was very special in David's heart.

A moment later, Joana rushed down the stairs. "David, hurry up and get your number 7 shirt and suit ready and your number 10 leather shoes. President Anthony will be attending a press conference in half an hour."

"Okay!" David turned around hastily.

Natalie stood in the same place and just stayed silent. After a while, Anthony came downstairs with Joana.

"Natalie, if you are bored at night, you can call me. I've been very busy lately, so I want to find a friend to go out with!" Joana showed a warm attitude.

Natalie nodded and smiled. "Sure!"

"Does Miss Natalie like Miss Joana?"

David saw Natalie keep staring at the backs of Anthony and Joana.

Natalie reached out and touched one of the flowers and said with a smile. "I think Mrs. Joana is a very good person. She's also the one who recruited me and often helped me at work!"

David's worries finally disappeared.

"Okay! The young master might return late at night! Miss Natalie can take this time to familiarize yourself with the surroundings here!"

"It's the weekend. Is he that busy?"

"For young master, there is no day off. He is very busy all year round. But with the help of Miss Joana, the young master's burden is not too much."

"Oh, I see…."

In the eyes of outsiders, Anthony looks like a handsome and arrogant CEO. But they don't know how hard he works every day.

At this moment, she truly realized that in this world, nothing was instant.

"Thanks David. I'll familiarize myself with this place!"

"If you need anything, feel free to call me!"

Natalie nodded. There were many servants in this new place, but they all had their own duties. They are also educated and taught etiquette.

This house covers a large area, and Natalie has been wandering for a long time.

However, her favourite spot is her large bedroom.

The dressing room in her room was huge, and for the most part, it contained all of Anthony's clothes.

Suits and trousers all hung neatly, and there were numbers on the hangers… It seems that Joana puts a lot of effort into her work.

Even ordinary clothes are neatly arranged.

Then, she climbed into bed.

Whenever she has free time, the first thing she does is play on her cell phone. She opened the chat page and saw if any of her friends were looking for her.

Hmm? It looks like there's a voicemail on her cell phone.

Surprisingly, she never saw the cell phone number. Who left her a message?

"Natalie, I want to talk to you. There seems to be a lot of misunderstanding between us. Give me a chance, and I'll explain everything to you. It's been four years we've been in love, I don't want it all to fall apart in the blink of an eye. Tomorrow afternoon at 5, I will be waiting for you at our house. I hope you will come!"

Natalie put her finger on the voicemail and silently deleted it.

She remembered that she deleted the numbers of Reynolds friends and blocked them. It looks like he used the new number to leave her a message.

Hey, hey, what! A misunderstanding! The biggest misunderstanding of my life was getting to know you.

After pondering for a long time, she turned off her cell phone, grabbed the blanket with both hands, and sank into the blanket.

The soft blanket was filled with Anthony's smell, which gave her a slight cozy feeling. She closed her eyes and slowly fell asleep.

Soon, she fell into a dream world.

She was walking while someone was holding her.

The surroundings were just dazzling white light, she couldn't see anything.

"Natalie, are you nervous? Hahaha, your forehead is sweating like that! Don't look so tense and nervous later..."

Someone was standing in front of her, holding an embroidered handkerchief. She gently wiped the sweat off her forehead.

The handkerchief smelled like jasmine, and the woman's voice was soft.

"Mom, don't leave me later, okay?"

"Stupid girl, mother will not leave you. But you are a big girl now, and you are eighteen. It's time to introduce you to mother's friends."

"Mom, I don't want to go. I don't want to go!"

"Don't worry, mother will always be by your side. Come on, let's go, we can't keep Mr. Stevano waiting too long!"

Suddenly, some noise woke her up, and Natalie immediately opened her eyes.
