Upon entering the room, Natalie saw a woman in her fifties, sitting on the sofa and folding a blanket.

Seeing that Elizabeth came in with Natalie, she paused and said, “Well, this is a surprise.Elizabeth has never brought

any friends here.Do you happen to like pumpkin pie? It will be out of the oven soon.”

Natalie thought that Elizabeth’s family would be just like her, and she was pleasantly surprised to see that her aunt

was such a kind and nurturing soul.

Just then, a ding was heard from the kitchen, and the smell of pumpkin pie spread across the room. “Yes! It’s finally

ready.Kids, go to the table and have a seat.I’ll take it out now.”

Elizabeth’s aunt smiled brightly. Her kind, elderly presence was a joy to behold. She asked Elizabeth, Natalie, and

the bodyguard to sit at the table before heading into the kitchen.

Natalie wanted to help her, but the older woman politely refused her help.

Elizabeth shook her head at Natalie.

“That’s just how she is.Let her be.”

While they were at the table, Natalie looked around and noticed that Elizabeth’s laptop was on.

There was a half-finished draft of her design on the screen.

After taking a sip of the tea, she looked at Elizabeth’s laptop and asked, “Why are you still working? You should take

some time off and recuperate.”

Elizabeth ran her fingers along the edge of the teacup and replied, “Whenever I’m not working, I would think of all

sorts of stuff. To tell you the truth, I’ve pondered on a lot of things after leaving the studio.”

Seeing as Elizabeth was hesitant to speak, Natalie smiled at her and said, “If there’s something you wish to say, just

say it. Your secret’s safe with me.”

With a smile on her face, Elizabeth said, “Draco is an excellent mentor and boss. I’m really relieved that I am

employed by him. That being said, I have a firm conviction that I am capable enough to be an independent

designer. Maybe one day in the future, I will leave W Marks to embark on my own endeavor.”

When Natalie heard her words, her eyes lit up at the prospect.

Elizabeth was going to be an indie designer!? She felt so proud and happy for her friend! Maybe, just maybe…She

herself would have such a chance in the future as well.

“So do want to become an independent designer?” Natalie asked in an even voice, suppressing her excitement for

Elizabeth.

“Would you like to open a studio of your own?”

“Yes,” replied Elizabeth, and then she looked ever so slightly embarrassed.

“But it’s just a rough idea and goal at this moment in time.I don’t have any capital to open my own studio right

now.I have spent a lot of money on Jorge.”

The pair of ladies continued chatting.

Elizabeth’s aunt came in with coffee and a lovely spread of desserts.

“Girls, have some pumpkin pie.I have doubled the amount of cream cheese in it.”

“Let me help you!”

Natalie got to her feet and helped her set the table.

“Elizabeth doesn’t talk much at the office, does she? She has been a lady of few words, even since she was just a

little girl,” Elizabeth’s aunt said to Natalie with a wink.

“When she was a child, she had been isolated by her classmates and she often came to me and cried her eyes out

because she didn’t have any playmates.”

“Auntie, how long has it been since then? Why do you have to bring that up?”

Elizabeth was eating the pumpkin pie leisurely, when she heard her aunt’s remark. She suddenly frowned and

looked at her aunt reproachfully.

Obviously, her aunt was intimidated by her and pouted unhappily.

“Why can’t you let me share my memories?” Natalie tried hard to hold back her appreciative laughter.

She hadn’t expected the way Elizabeth and her aunt interacted to be so adorable.

Natalie looked at Elizabeth’s aunt and informed her, “Elizabeth has a lot of friends at the office. She’s quite

popular.Everyone likes her.”

When her aunt heard this, there was an initial look of surprise on her face, but then, she seemed to be relieved.

“Really? That’s excellent to hear! Elizabeth has been talented in painting since she was a child, but she never liked

to talk to me much.And now, I’m so glad she moved in with me so we can spend more time together.By the way,

she has brought a lot of design drawings here. You can look over the designs for her… Your name is Natalie, isn’t

it?”

“That’s correct,” Natalie nodded.
