A Vampire's Contract Wife

Chapter 20: Natalia’s Resolution

Irina was crying her eyes out and fell into Vasili’s arms. At this moment, the assistant knocked on Vasili’s office door and said that Natalia and Bailey had returned to the company.

Irina immediately stopped crying and kept a certain distance from Vasili.

“Natalia, where did you go last night? Do you know that I’ve been looking for you all night right?”Vasili asked directly.

Natalia glanced at him and then at Irina. A cold smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

“Those photos between Irina and I were a misunderstanding. I’ve already released the news to clarify it. Can you not make a big deal out of it?”

Natalia averted her gaze and did not say anything. She knew very well that Vasili and Irina had gone to bed together that night. Otherwise, there was no way he would not have noticed that she was no longer in her original apartment.

“But it was not a misunderstanding between Miss Irina and I. . .”Natalia said calmly, “I helped her so many times, but she backstabbed me. In your eyes, am I that easy to bully?”

“Natalia, Irina was also afraid of the paparazzi, so she could only deal with it that way!”

“Really?”Natalia asked.

“No matter what, this matter is over. You don’t have to pursue it anymore. Also, about the HF endorsement, you should return it to Irina. This endorsement is too important to her. You have retired, and you won’t be on the runway anymore in the future, so… it’s useless to get the endorsement,”Vasili said in a commanding tone, in an attempt to Natalia to return the endorsement to Irina.

“Yes, Natalia, you haven’t been on the runway for so many years, so you’re already unfamiliar with the runway…”Irina also joined in the persuasion, “Moreover, HF’s endorsement was originally mine. HF saw that I was injured and thought that I wouldn’t be able to recover for the time being, so they chose you. You don’t want to be a substitute, right?”

“This sentence, coming from Miss Irina’s mouth, is a bit ironic,”Natalia said coldly, but it attracted a rebuke from Vasili.

“Natalia, you’ve never been like this before. We’re about to get married. If you still love me, don’t accept this endorsement. For the company’s long-term plans, we need Irina to win that award to raise our company’s status.”

Vasili’s words clearly carried a sense of threat in them. He actually used the bargaining chip of marriage.

Hearing this, Irina secretly laughed in her heart. Because she knew that Natalia could do anything for Vasilyi, let alone give up a mere endorsement?

Irina said, “Vasili, quickly contact HF to explain to them. Natalia is considering the wedding and is not going to accept any endorsement…”

Vasili nodded and was about to pick up the phone on his desk when Natalia reached out to hold the phone in Vasili’s hand. “This endorsement… I will accept it.”

“What?”Vasili was surprised. Natalia would never refute any of his decisions.

“Don’t forget, I am also a model of TY Entertainment. Moreover, I have already spoken to the founder of HF, Mr. Owen. He is looking forward to our collaboration!”

“Natalia, I’m the President of TY Entertainment. The decision-making power lies with me and not you!”Vaso;o looked at Natalia with anger. “Why do you have to snatch Irina’s endorsement?”

“Is the endorsement something that I can snatch away just because I want to?”? HF requested for a replacement. I was just afraid that the last endorsement would be destroyed, so I wanted to help you retain the contract. “Originally, I didn’t believe in all the things between you and Irina, but now you’re willing to lose your interests to protect her endorsement. Does that mean that between the two of you…”

“Of course not. What are you thinking about?”Vasili immediately denied it. “I just think that we’re about to get married. Can’t you focus on our family?”

“Then why don’t you go and explain it to Mr. Owen from HF?”Natalia released her hand that was covering the phone, her eyes faintly filled with disappointment, “Also, what do you mean by taking away Irina’s endorsement? Did I not give her enough of my own privileges and resources before this? In order to push her up, I have offended everyone that I could possibly imagine… Turns out, people would never remember your kindness…”

“Natalia, at that time, it was you who announced your retirement, so they decided to change models. What do you mean by giving away?”Irina was also unconvinced. What she hated the most was people saying that she had taken over Natalia’s resources, “Also, with your current strength and reputation, who would believe you if you told me?”

“Okay, if you can change Mr. Owen’s mind, I’ll withdraw from the endorsement. No objections.”

Vasili was caught between the two women. The most important thing was that Natalia was still angry. Otherwise, she would never disobey his orders. Moreover, HF had indeed requested for Natalia to be the replacement, therefore, Vasili finally stopped the two of them. “Both of you, stop arguing. Since it is HF’s request, then we can only follow it. This endorsement will be replaced by Natalia.”

“VASILI!”Irina shouted angrily.

“It’s decided. Both of you, go back first. Natalia, let Bailey in.”Vasili ordered coldly. Obviously, although there was nothing he could do for the situation where Natalia is to become the replacement, he hated the feeling of being dominated over by a woman.

Natalia, who was smart, had long understood Vasili’s meaning. However, did he think that she would be as careful as before to care about his feelings?

Dream On!

Irina followed behind Natalia. The anger in her heart was directly displayed on her face. She almost could not control it. Fortunately, although Natalia showed some signs of making a come back, she did not have much popularity after all, it was still very easy for her to tear up an outdated model, so.., she turned her head and said to her assistant, “In a while, take a few photos of me trying my best to recover from my injuries and post them on the Internet. Incite the fans to accuse Natalia of stealing my endorsement. She can forget about getting what I can’t get.”

“Don’t worry, I know what to do.”The assistant nodded in understanding.

After Natalia returned to the lounge, she winked at Bailey. “Don’t be nervous.”

Bailey rolled his eyes. “Please, it’s not my first day as a manager. It Won’t be so easy for Vasili to teach me a lesson. Just wait and see…”as he said that, Bailey walked into Vasili’s office aggressively.

Vasili threw the contract in front of her. “Prepare the money to forfeit our contract and get out of the company.”

“Get Out?”Bailey sneered, “Mr. Vasili is probably a little forgetful. When I signed the contract with TY, the contract clearly stated that my salary was linked to Natalia’s activities. However, over the years, because Natalia’s activities had been replaced by Irina, and my salary was thousands of miles away from the company’s original promise, who was the one who violated the contract first? “Also, my words are completely based on Natalia’s interests. which contract did I violate?”

“You…”Vasili did not expect that he would be questioned by a manager. He felt embarrassed instantly.

“If you are not afraid that this matter will blow up, then we can fight a dozen lawsuits to our heart’s content. I don’t mind, but who in the industry would believe TY Entertainment?”Bailey’s tone was very provocative.

“What do you want?”

“Let’s part on good terms. I’ll sign and leave, and you can forget about the penalty for breaching the contract. From now on, we’re even!”

Vasili looked at Bailey angrily. However, because there was an Irina in the middle, he couldn’t say anything to refute. In the end, Vasili could only endure his anger and sign. “Get lost. I don’t want to see you again.”

“Vasili, let me give you a piece of advice. There is no such thing as an impenetrable wall. If you treat Natalia like this, you will pay a thousand times the price sooner or later.”After saying that, Bailey took the contract termination letter and left the office.

After Bailey terminated the contract, she did not leave the company. Instead, she followed behind Natalia. This made Vasili, who came out of the office, bump into him by chance. “Why are you still here?”

Natalia was stunned for a moment before she said, “Because I signed Bailey!”

“Natalia, your agency contract is in the company. What right do you have to sign another manager?”Vasili was almost driven mad by Natalia.

“Oh, I did not sign her on as a manager. I signed her as an assistant. It’s my right to find an assistant, right?”Natalia smiled calmly. “After all, Bailey has taken care of me for so many years. I’m also used to her taking care of me.”

“Natalia, why are you going against me now?”Vasili directly grabbed Natalia to the side and asked with an angry expression.

“Because Bailey is more willing to think for me than you, my fiancé. He won’t think that I stole someone’s cake just because I accepted an endorsement…”

After listening to Natalia’s words, Vasili was silent again. He looked at Natalia coldly. “Natalia, you’ve always been the most supportive of my work… how did you become like this?”

“I’ve said it before, during the Crown Star walkway show, that was the last time I was going to take the blame for you.”Natalia was still calm, so calm that no emotions could be seen in her eyes.

“If you really want to be so stubborn, I think… we can temporarily not get married.”Vasili wanted to use the marriage to suppress Natalia. After all, for so many years, Natalia had been around him, she was willing to do anything for him.

For a long time… Natalia did not speak. It seemed that she was weighing the pros and cons..

Vasili felt that she had softened her heart and regretted going against him.

He was about to let his pride get to his head and thought that when Natalia softened, he would definitely teach her a lesson.

However, Vasili would never have Vasili expected Natalia to say such a thing.
