It was obvious to Natalie that Joyce did not intend to return to the office as she had already handed over her work.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have needed to text her to come back, and nor would she have doubted her friend's intentions.

When Joyce saw Natalie's reply, her heart skipped a beat.She did not expect that Natalie could tell that she was lying straight away.

Forget it! Joyce sighed before replying with a voice message.

She said, "Nat, I'm so sorry.I had lied to you indeed.It's true that I don't feel like going back.In fact, I don't think I will go back ever again.It's better this way."
