Water trickled down Natalie's head, mixing with her tears.
Her phone rang. Her senior was curious about her meeting with Billy, so he called her.
Her phone was in her bag, but she had thrown her bag on the floor.
Half an hour later, she cout of the shower and wrapped herself tightly with the towel.
Her face was still pale, and her gaze was out of focus. She seemed to have been in shock.
She walked to the living area and picked her bag up.
She was extremely afraid. She wanted company, but she did not know who to call.
She took her phone out of her bag and unlocked it. She immediately noticed the missed call from her senior.
While hesitating, her senior called her once more. Her fingers trembled, and she accidentally answered the call.

"Natalie, you have finished the meeting with my boss, right? How was it? What does my boss look like? Is he nice? What did you
two talk about?"
Natalie's teeth chattered. After a while, she forced a few words out of her mouth. "H-He's a... pervert!"
Her senior was baffled. "Did he bully you? Was it because you were too pretty? We usually communicated through emails. He feels
quite normal!" "Don't mention him! Never mention him in front ofagain!" Natalie yelled out hysterically as if she were about to
go mad.
The entire apartment echoed with her screams. It was like a scene from a horror movie.
"0-oh. Okay. Where are you? I'm a little worried about you. Do you want scompany?" her senior said. "Right, by the way, Elliot
Foster has put out a bounty.
Fifteen million dollars for information on my boss and a photo of him."
When Natalie heard him mention Elliot, she cto her senses.
Before meeting Billy that day, she had disregarded Elliot. When she had compared Elliot to Billy, she had found Elliot lacking in all
ways.
At that moment, she found her previous assessment comical! Elliot was like a god in comparison to Billy!
Even if he had ten Averys in his heart, he was still much better than that pervert, Billy!
After hanging up, she found Elliot's contact QKX: called him without hesitation.
When the call connected, she heard Elliot's cold snap, "What is it? "
Hearing his cold and angry voice, she realized that it was midnight in Aryadelle.
"I-I heard that you're giving out fifteen million dollars for information on Billy..." she stuttered.
"Do you know anything about him?" Elliot rubbed his throbbing temples.

"I..." Natalie wanted to say that she knew him, but if she were to say that Elliot would want to know how she met him.
How was she going to explain herself then? Billy only saw her but no one else. No matter how she tried she would not be able to
explain it without giving herself away.
"I heard about it..." For safety reasons, she decided to make what she knew vague. " My friend said that she had seen Billy."
"What friend? How did your friend get to meet Billy?”
"She didn't tellthe details. She only toldthat Billy is short and ugly. She said he might have dwarfism." Natalie's voice
shook. "Not only that, but he also has special kinks."
Elliot sprang up from his bed.
Was Natalie lying? Was she deliberately defaming Billy?
How could Avery have such a boyfriend?
Had she gone mad? Even if she was provoked, she would not do such a thing to herself!
