NovelEnglishIn her apartment, Natalie was sitting on the sofa, scrolling through her phone to pass the time.
She had slept during the day, so she was not tired at all.
She had followed a few of the staff at Tate Industries, so she was browsing their social media. That night was Tate Industries' annual dinner, held at the city's largest exhibition center.

Natalie looked at the liveliness of the photos, then thought about how alone she was at that moment. She felt a little sad.
Sof the staff had even taken photos of Elliot giving a speech on stage. Elliot, in these photos, looked tall, slender, and authoritative. He was exactly as she remembered him: the emperor who controlled everything.
Natalie's eyes grew sore. She thought of the foolish things she had done and the fantasies she had had of being with him in the past.
Ring! The doorbell pulled her back to reality.
She rose from the sofa and walked toward the door. From the control system by the door, she saw two tall men standing outside her door. One of the men was the person she had just seen in the photo, Elliot! Natalie's heart started beating wildly. She took a deep breath and sent Holly a message notifying her of the situation, before opening the door.
She could only open the door with such confidence because she knew she had not done anything to offend Elliot. Even if he clooking for her, she had a clear conscience.
Upon opening the door, Natalie's expression was a little uneasy. "Elliot, why are you looking forso late at night? Ever since I returned to the country, I have been at home. I have never left the house. I haven't done anything to you and Avery either." Elliot pushed her door open hard and strode into the apartment.

"Natalie, you sure can hide things. If I don't say it, are you planning to hide the secret you know forever?" Elliot sat on the sofa and looked at her coldly "Why did you get Isaac to look for someone with scars on their wrist?" n Natalie gritted her teeth. Isaac was truly useless! Did he think that Elliot would promote him if he sold her out? Idiot! "I'm trying to help you look for Ivy as recompense." Natalie walked over to the sofa and sat down beside him. She looked extremely remorseful.
Elliot did not buy a single word she said or her expression.
However, there was one thing that he had gotten confirmation on: the lady who had scars on her wrist knew where Ivy was. Juliet knew where Ivy was! ŚwThis had to be it! "Who told you this? Holly?" Elliot asked with reddened eyes.
Natalie wanted to lie, but, at that moment, even if she lied, Elliot would not believe her.
"Yes, I contacted her. We're looking for the person with scars on their wrist. This person might know where to look for Ivy." At that moment, Natalie did not forget to try to clear her name.
"Elliot, I'll be honest with you. I wanted to look for Ivy and ask you for credit never told you this beforehand because I was afraid that you might find her first. That way, I wouldn't have anything. My thoughts are not wrong, right? I only wanted to change the terrible deck of cards I've been dealt." "Other than this, do you know anything else?" Elliot questioned.
