Chapter 1045 Something Strange In His Gaze
Helma couldn’t refute his words. Her smile instantly slipped away. She had no idea that her father was so interested
in Natalie. Natalie was confused, too.
This is the first time I met Geert, but he’s looking at me intently. It doesn’t seem like he wants to avenge Heidi.
Instead, he looks delighted as though he has found his prey.
Natalie followed Geert and Helma back to the private cinema to show how unique Starry Sky was yet again. Geert
took one look at Starry Sky before turning to Natalie, a flash of admiration in his gaze.
He had been worried that his daughter would resort to extreme means to steal the limelight at the banquet and
end up dressing luxuriously. However, doing that would merely attract Bastien’s suspicion.
Nevertheless, the Starry Sky jewelry collection was perfect. The jewelry looked elegant under the light but dazzled

After they walked out of the private cinema, Geert clapped his hands and praised, “Good job.”
Natalie replied in a low voice, “All the credit should go to Dream’s designer, Muse. She’s very creative.”
Geert shot her a thoughtful look. “If the sparkle is too glaring, it will look too flashy. If the sparkle is too weak, it will
look too ordinary. The sparkle is just right, so I don’t think the designer is solely responsible for that.”
Natalie did not expect Geert to get it right.
It was Anna who completed the design, but she was the one in charge of adjusting the direction of the jewelry’s
sparkle.
Not knowing how to answer his question, Natalie merely smiled and remained silent.
Helma stood aside and watched their interaction. Father didn’t cross the line, but he’s obviously interested in
Natalie. I don’t get it. I really don’t.
Natalie wanted to leave after introducing the Starry Sky jewelry set. However, Geert asked her to stay for dinner.
And so, Natalie, Helma, and Geert went to the dining room for dinner.

Dinner at the Leitz residence was a splendid affair.
Natalie stared at the spread before her, but she felt as though she was chewing on wax.
Geert was still scrutinizing her as he ate, which made her feel extremely edgy.
Right then, Heidi came back home.
Assuming only Geert and Helma were around, she parted her lips and hollered, “Dad, Helma, I’m…”

narrow in shock and her blood to turn cold.
Natalie Nichols! I’ll never forget how she was the reason I got raped for the entire night!
Hatred flashed across her face, but she couldn’t expose herself, as Helma and Geert were around. Thus, she had to
tamp down her anger.
“Heidi, come. Let’s have dinner together.”
“Yes, Father.”
Heidi took the seat next to Geert. She regarded Natalie with mixed feelings before tucking into her meal.
Initially, Heidi didn’t notice anything. A while later, she finally realized there was something off between her father
and Natalie.
After dinner, Natalie refused to stay anymore. She bade goodbye to Geert and the others and left.
She felt as if a load had been lifted from her chest when she stepped out of the Leitz residence.
The Leitzes and I are ill-matched. Heidi hates me because of Samuel, and now her father treats me in a strange
manner. It’s apparent that Helma noticed the way Geert stared at me. I’ll have to keep a distance from the Leitzes
even though I want them to be our biggest clients. Yandel and Lia can handle our future collaborations.
