Natasha felt uneasy and quickly changed into dark-colored clothing at that thought. Then, she went out and hailed a taxi after putting on a mask.

On the other hand, Maverick walked out of the bathroom after a shower. The video of Gwendolyn dancing to “Lover” kept lingering in his mind.

He felt slightly frustrated and thought he wouldn’t have helped her if he had known it would be so tiring.

While lying on his bed, Gwendolyn filled his thoughts, especially her clear and strong-willed eyes. It left an indelible impression on him.

Also, he felt she looked somewhat familiar.

Maverick thought of something and gave Gwendolyn a call after much deliberation.

He wanted to clarify something.

However, Gwendolyn didn’t pick up the first call.

When the second call was dialed, he received a voice message that said the phone was not in service.

Does she hate me so much?

Annoyed and frustrated, Maverick tossed his phone aside and went to sleep.

Meanwhile, Natasha took a taxi and arrived at an abandoned hut in the suburban area.

There, Stella stood outside waiting for her.

Natasha was taken aback after she saw the injuries on Stella’s face and body after she approached the latter.

“What happened? How did you get injured?”

Lowering her head, no expression could be detected on Stella’s face. “On the way here, that woman resisted desperately, so there was a minor car accident. Also, I made a mistake with the dosage for the injection. She-”

“I’ll take a look inside.”

Stella stopped her. “Is Ms. Ferguson aware that you came alone tonight?”

Displeased, Natasha’s expression immediately darkened.

Eloise had always bossed Natasha around because she had a higher social status than the latter. Now that Eloise had gone back to Salinsburgh, Natasha found it ridiculous the people working for the former still tried to keep her in check.

Eloise and I are working together. I’m not her subordinate Why do I have to report everything to her?
