Echoes Of a Forsaken Heart (Natalia and Hamilton)

Chapter 29

Chapter 29 

Natalia couldn’t deny the fact that she had tattled. Just the night before, she had complained to Hamilton multiple times about Eveleen’s lack of cooperation, which led her to seek Gideon’s intervention. 

She hadn’t expected Hamilton to actually confront Eveleen about it, especially since Eveleen was his first love–the one he had never spoken harshly to. Perhaps he had done it for the sake of the project’s progress, but it still sent ripples through Natalia’s heart. 

Tiny sparrows of emotion fluttered uncontrollably within her, no matter how much she tried to suppress them. In a way, she pitied herself. Any small acts of kindness Hamilton showed her, she clung to secretly and cherished for a long time. 

Natalia didn’t elaborate to Aurora. She pushed these thoughts aside and started organizing the shoot, coordinating with the photographer and the crew. By the time she had finished, Eveleen’s makeup was done. 

Eveleen stood before Natalia with a light chuckle. “Hamilton’s throwing a welcome bash for me. You should come and have some fun.” 

Natalia declined straight away. “Better not. I’d rather not spoil everyone’s mood by showing up.” 

With that, she walked away. 

Eveleen’s laughter was particularly gleeful. “What’s the matter? Afraid to see Hamilton being too nice to me?” 

The thought made Natalia’s heart sink. Indeed, she didn’t want to witness Hamilton’s affectionate behavior towards Eveleen. The kindness Hamilton showed her, Natalia, came after much effort and was always in little doses, whereas Eveleen seemed to hold a special place in his heart effortlessly. 

In comparison, she was pitiful, really. 

Natalia looked at Eveleen. “Ms. Schafer, we’re about to start shooting.” 

Eveleen glanced back at her with a smirk and turned to leave. 

The shoot did not go smoothly. The concept had been tailored for Lyra, and Eveleen’s style was vastly different. The photographer was perpetually dissatisfied, forcing Natalia to make on–the–fly adjustments. It wasn’t until the end of the day that they wrapped up something resembling a decent shoot, leaving everyone exhausted.
