Instead, she went to another room and called Stephen. Soon, the call was answered.

want to come back to see you!”

“No need. We’ve got some issues at headquarters recently, and I won’t have time to spend with you if you

exasperation in his words to Natalie at this moment.

Natalie hung up the phone.

A chill ran up her spine.

her.

Upstairs in the study, a man tapped on his phone with his fair fingers.
