Chapter 166 Provoking Him to Feel Satisfied

Natalie didn’t leave Scarlet Villa immediately.

“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.
