Chapter 509
Natalia's eyes were filled with anger and hatred for Adrian. She could feel her heart pounding with rage. She wanted to go and hurt this guy.
However, for the sake of her twins, she let him go.
She turned her attention to the other people and asked,noveldrama
"I didn't want to know about the ancient rules. All I want to know is what you think. Will you keep him in that position if he is unable to manage the company effectively and faces the possibility of losing everything you have worked so hard to achieve?"
Adrian's smirk faded as his eyes grew enraged. It was a personal insult to him.
"Luna"
He cut off a board member by saying,
"Don't call her Luna. According to the pack's rules, she has yet to receive recognition from her Alpha in order to be considered for that position. Until the Crown Ceremony, you may address her by name."
The men looked startled. As long as they knew Adrian, they knew he would rip their heads off if they called her by her first name.
Maybe they had a fight and were talking like this.
Natalia clenched her jaw. She could not believe Adrian had turned the table when she had a solid plan to take everything from him.
"Alpha Adrian views his own wife as a threat. Isn't it great?" She mocked him.
Adrian did not move as he said, "As my wife, you should help me with the company. I do not want my wife's business potential to be wasted. So, starting now, you can be the company's vice president. Even if you are upset, you still wield great power."
Natalia rolled her eyes. She had no desire to be in that position. But she could not leave so easily because she was here to ruin him and secure the future of her children.
She grabbed a chair and pulled it out calmly. Then she smiled at everyone and said,
"Now that your Alpha is back, let us begin the meeting."
Everyone reached an agreement to sell some market shares. They were reluctant at first. However, Natalia wisely explained some projects in need of funding. To secure the top place in business, they agreed with her.
Except for Natalia and Adrian, everyone had left the room after the meeting ended.
Natalia was feeling down. She was ready to leave but she decided to call her brother to let him know about it.
When she was about to click on her brother's phone number, she noticed someone approaching her chair. She lifted her gaze.
Adrian came to a stop in front of her.
He glanced at her phone and noticed Jason's name. Natalia locked her phone and placed it away. Adrian bent down toward her, placing his hand on the table.
Natalia was caught off guard by his actions.
When his face was just a few inches from hers, he said,
"You have the wrong idea that anyone can take away what is mine."
His gaze was drawn to her neck, where the mark was located. He returned his gaze back to her and added,
"Maybe things were different back then..."
Her heart was tightening from his words and the closeness.
She pushed his chest, pushing him away, and stood up from the chair. "Keep dreaming. The dialogues you are giving to me... If you had worked on it even once, your life would have been different."
The look on her face prompted him to give her a hostile look. "The sharpness of your tongue will one day lead to your demise."
She sneered at him and grabbed her files herself since her assistants were not in the company. "Go enjoy your winnings and enjoy yourself."
Her phone lit up.
When he noticed Benjamin was calling, Adrian frowned. A faint burning sensation ran through his chest.
He ignored the feeling and muttered with an angry tone,
"Why is he calling you? Is wandering around you his only job?"
