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.

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

Stephen was stunned.

“What’s going on?”

“There are some things on Sylvan Gems’s side that will probably take a few days to handle. I miss you and

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

come back,” Stephen replied.

“It’ll be New Year in two months. Why don’t you come back then?”

“Sounds good.”

Natalie hung up the phone.

A chill ran up her spine.

She closed her eyes and took several deep breaths, but it did nothing to calm the raging emotions within

her.

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