Chapter 31 Max Is Embarrassed
Natalie straightened up and withdrew her hand.
The cashew nut beside Kendrick's mouth was gone.
Rose came in, bowed, and apologized again, "I'm sorry. I didn't stop her."
As an ordinary white-collar worker, she had to be humble.
Caitlyn had not yet cleared the coffee stains from her body, but she did not care about that. She just rushed directly to Kendrick.
Natalie counted to three in her heart.
Then Caitlyn cried directly.
She was not crying aloud, but there were tears in her eyes, and she bit her lips to keep them from trickling down.
Seeing that, Natalie thought, "Well, I should learn from her."
She dropped a cashew nut into her mouth and looked calm.
Kendrick raised his face and looked puzzled. "Mr. Wilson has gone!"
Caitlyn sniffed and looked at him. Then she looked at Natalie, pointed at her, and said, "Ken, this woman intentionally spilled coffee all over me."
The coffee stains were still on her head and body, and Caitlyn looked embarrassed.
Kendrick turned to look at Natalie.
"What happened?"
Caitlyn was so delighted that she failed to restrain her expression. She hurriedly said, "The coffee brought by Rose was too hot, and I accidentally spilled it on her document. Then this woman poured the coffee directly on my head." She cried and continued, "I didn't mean it at all."
Kendrick frowned. "So?"
Caitlyn pointed at Natalie and said, "I want this woman to apologize to me. In addition, she has to compensate for my clothes."
After she had said that, her forehead suddenly hurt, as Natalie threw a peanut directly on her forehead and said, "You are dreaming!"
Then she sneered, "You didn't mean it? Then I suggest you go to the hospital to check whether you have Parkinson's disease, or whether your cerebellum is naturally underdeveloped. You held the cup of coffee so firmly, but you actually spilled it. Rose's hand is blistered because of you, but she did not complain at all. Therefore, how dare you, the villain, complain first?"
Natalie thought, "I planned to let this go after she apologized and compensated Rose.
Anyway, I've vented my anger, so there is no need to entangle with her anymore. After all, this woman doesn't look very smart. I guess she will be in bad luck soon. Unexpectedly, she actually dared to rush in and complain."
Thinking of this, Natalie pursed her lips and said, "Do you really want me to apologize? Fine, I'm okay with it, but, have you apologized to Rose?"
Caitlyn burst into tears. She turned around, tugged at Rose's sleeve, and choked, "Sorry, I didn't mean to."
Rose pulled her sleeve away.
She was not stupid.
Therefore, she knew whose side to stand on now.
"See? She didn't accept it." Natalie clapped her hands. "How about this? Rose's degree of scalding is moderate at the medical level. Now, you take a cup of hot coffee and pour it over your hands to achieve moderate scalding. In that case, you two should be even. After that, let's talk about the following matters."
Caitlyn didn't know what to say.
She motioned desperately to Rose with her gaze.
However, Rose ignored her with no expression.
Caitlyn got angry and said to Rose, "It was you who had to rush over and stretch out your hand to block it. Otherwise, the coffee wouldn't have touched you at all." After saying that, she turned to Kendrick and cried, "Ken, I really didn't mean it. You can check the surveillance. It was she who took the initiative to stretch out her hand."
Hearing this, Rose finally raised her head. She took a deep breath and said, "If I didn't block it, that cup of coffee would have been spilled on Mrs. Ramsey."
Caitlyn's eyes widened, and she didn't understand.
She thought, "What is she talking about?
Mrs. Ramsey? Who?"
Kendrick turned his face, and his eyes darkened instantly. He asked Natalie, "Are you scalded?"
"No, but my project plan was ruined." Natalie raised her eyebrows. "It's worth about 1 billion. I have even made comments on it."
Kendrick had figured out what had happened. He frowned and said to Caitlyn, "You rushed in without permission. Now, you want my wife to apologize to you and compensate you, right?" When Caitlyn heard this, her pupils widened again, and she thought, "His wife?
When did he get married?
Why don't I know anything about that?"
"Is that so?" Kendrick asked again.
"I..."
Caitlyn suddenly lost all the courage to speak.
Kendrick took out his mobile phone and said indifferently, "It is necessary to let Mr. Wilson know about this matter, otherwise you will be wronged."
Max had just cheekily asked Kendrick for help.
However, due to what his daughter had done, there might be a change in the negotiated conditions.
With no surprise, after receiving a call, Max rushed up from the parking lot downstairs.
Just as Kendrick had simply explained the matter, Max could not wait to apologize, "It's my fault that I haven't taught my daughter well. I'm sorry that she has caused you trouble." His speed of apologizing shocked not only his daughter but also Natalie.
Caitlyn whimpered and wanted to speak, but Max interrupted directly, "Shut up!" Then he took Caitlyn to apologize to Rose and said that he would bear the medical expenses.
Max also wanted to apologize to Natalie, but she took the initiative to say, "Ms. Wilson wants me to apologize to her!"
"No, you don't have to. She is not sensible. I will teach her well in the future."
"By the way, you'd better take her to the hospital to have a CT scan to see if her brain kernel has shrunk. Otherwise, it is difficult to explain why such an adult could do such a stupid thing." Max's face changed several times, and he did not know what to say. He was really embarrassed.
Meanwhile, Caitlyn was crying out of breath.
She looked at Natalie's face with great resentment. Only Kendrick dropped his eyes and smiled lightly. "Please go out. I have a business to talk about."
Kendrick ordered them to leave.
The office soon quieted down.
Kendrick glanced at Natalie and said, "If anything happens next time, just tell me. Don't deal with it yourself."
Hearing this, Natalie thought, "He won't deal with it himself, for someone will do it for him.
Max must be very nervous now. I guess that he will teach his daughter a tough lesson after he goes back."
Thinking of this, Natalie said demurely, "I know what I should or shouldn't do. The perceived temperature of human skin is about 68-116 °F. When it is above 122 °F, our skin will get burnt and blistered. Therefore, I poured her a cup of coffee at 113 °F, which will make her feel hot and painful, but it is not a burn in medical identification."
Kendrick lost his words for a while.
Natalie looked at the time and saw that it was almost five o'clock. Then she said hurriedly, "Continue to read my project plan. Don't you have dinner at night?"
Speaking of this, she said with some envy, "I will go back myself tonight and eat instant noodles alone."
Kendrick chuckled, "Do you want to go with me?"
Natalie was surprised to hear that.
"Can I?"
Kendrick nodded.
Natalie pointed to her T-shirt and casual pants and said, "But I'm not dressing very formally today. I think they are convenient."
"It's not a private party. I'm going to meet a good friend. Speaking of this, you haven't seen him before," said Kendrick.
The original host of Natalie's body had never contacted Kendrick's friends before.
Natalie, however, now wanted to know all about him.
Kendrick's friend was Spencer Mercado.
He was the youngest professor of quantum mechanics.
He taught at Goldburg University and mainly studied the relationship between time and space in relativity.
He and Kendrick had known each other since they were kids and were close to each other. They were good friends who could talk.
Spencer knew that Kendrick was married, and he also knew that his marriage did not seem to be going well.
However, as a friend, he needed to know what to say and what not.
Therefore, he didn't interfere in Kendrick's private affairs.
Sitting on the top floor of Season Hotel, Spencer saw Kendrick coming from a distance, and his wheelchair was pushed by a girl. Seeing that, he thought, "I have just called him and asked if I should go to pick him up, and he said no.
It turns out that someone is with him."
Spencer stood up.
Then he saw Kendrick tilt his head and say something.
The next moment, the girl behind Kendrick raised her face and looked in Spencer's direction.
