Chapter 166 Provoking Him to Feel Satisfied

Natalie didn’t leave Scarlet Villa immediately.

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

“Nat!”

“Uncle, I want to come back to Simeria,” Natalie tentatively said.

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

A chill ran up her spine.

her.

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