Chapter 706
Blairโs face instantly showed a look of surprise. She pondered, โNatalia is Charlesโs daughter?โ โSo, Charles used his capital to promote her?โ Blair immediately had another line of questioning.
Elizabeth remained silent for a second. โNatalia is very talented. Even if Charles didnโt promote her, she would still become famous. Donโt think of Charles that way. Not everyone is like you, suddenly getting a position out of nowhere,โ she said bluntly, with a hint of disdain.
Blair was about to speak again when she saw Natalia stop in front of them. โElizabeth, what are you doing here?โ Natalia looked Elizabeth up and down, somewhat surprised. She had mentioned at the hospital that she received an invitation from Opulent Crest Jewelry, but Elizabeth hadnโt said she received one too. So why was Elizabeth here as well?
โAre you surprised?โ Elizabeth asked her.
Natalia clicked her tongue. โOf course. I didnโt think you were qualified to be here!โ
Blair could tell from the tone that these two definitely didnโt get along. โShe really isnโt qualified. And she didnโt come with her own invitation; she came with Lilaโs invitation!โ Blair said mockingly, crossing her arms.
Natalia immediately looked at her with a cold expression. She then scanned her from head to toe. Who was this woman with such a nasty tone? Natalia frowned, clearly displeased with her.
โIsnโt it ridiculous?โ Blair asked Natalia, trying to get her approval; her goal was to humiliate Elizabeth. Elizabeth remained silent. She didnโt realize that coming in place of Lila would make her a laughingstock.
Natalia looked at Elizabeth, then at Blair, and said, โYou think so?โ
โYes. Everyone else came with their own invitations, but Elizabeth came with Lilaโs invitation to the jewelry exhibition!โ Blair continued.
Natalia smiled. Blair also smiled, thinking it was indeed ridiculous. Elizabeth turned to leave, not wanting to see them ganging up on her. But Natalia grabbed her arm, saying to Blair, โI think youโre pretty ridiculous too.โ
Lizabeth then lookedโฆ

Blairโs expression also became interesting. โAre you insulting me? So what if itโs Lilaโs invitation? As long as she can get in, why do you have to be so nasty?โ Nataliaโs irritation was evident. She had a notoriously bad temper, which was why so many people in the entertainment industry disliked her. So she couldnโt stand people who were remotely arrogant and annoyingโDian herself!
โI thought you hated Elizabeth. Turns out youโre someone who speaks up for her!โ Blair sneered.
Natalia gave a fake smile. โYes, I do hate her. But that doesnโt mean I wonโt insult a worthless person like you who looks down on others.โ Her insult was almost inviting a fight.
Blair was so furious. Elizabeth then quickly pulled Natalia back. Natalia said to Elizabeth, โDonโt be afraid of her. Who does she think she is to humiliate you?โ
She indeed didnโt like Elizabeth and always mocked her whenever they met. But that didnโt mean others could mock Elizabeth in front of her! Elizabeth looked at Nataliaโs face, feeling an indescribable sense of gratitude. As it was the first time she had heard Natalia speak like this. She always thought her hurtful words might just be a form of self-protection.
โThatโs enough.โ Elizabeth quickly pulled Natalia away. Having Natalia speak up for her was enough.
