In a towering office building in Simeria, Natalie’s petite figure remained unchanged. There was now a sharpness and weariness of life’s twists and turns present on her delicate cheeks

She emerged from the elevator in professional attire with a pair of glasses on her face, and she presented a composed and capable demeanor.

Accompanied by several assistants, she walked and gave instructions to Karina, who led the group.

Karina took note of everything as they walked.

She closed a folder and handed it to Karina, saying “Go to the meeting room first.”

Looking at her drinking without any defense, he chuckled, “That’s the cup I’ve used.”
