“Isn't that the usual method of retaliation?” Natalie smiled and asked in return.
By then, the woman was already completely awake. However, she could feel an arm around her waist, hugging her tightly.
She tried to move slightly, but the man's arms and chest were as steely as a vault and there was simply no way Natalie could escape.
Even though that frustrated her slightly, she decided that since there was nothing she could do about it, she might as well continue staying in his arms.
Ignoring the man's heated breath and masculine scent behind her, Natalie continued discussing the situation with Yandel over the phone.
“Thomas is a smart man. The person behind him is definitely no fool either. It's just a matter of time that they would retaliate.” Natalie continued explaining, “Not only would they retaliate, they would also have guessed that we were the ones behind it.”
Yandel had also considered what Natalie mentioned before he called her.
“Boss, although they have given Yvonne such a diagnosis, she's currently under our protection. We can just find an opportunity to take her out of the psychiatric hospital so that she can expose Thomas' other misdeeds to the public. That would definitely be a slap in the face for the man...”
Yandel told Natalie his idea but was rejected by the woman.
“Even though Yvonne's mental condition is not as bad as stated in the diagnosis, she hasn't been in a good state of mind after Melissa passed away. Most importantly, she hasn't completely given up on Thomas yet. No matter how well we treat her, Thomas just has to act pitiful in front of her to gain back her favor...”
Upon hearing that, Yandel asked hesitatingly, “Boss, are we going to give up on this pawn?”
“Nope, it's just that we don't have to make this move yet...”
While Natalie was still in conversation with Yandel, she suddenly noticed that the man who was hugging her was starting to get touchy.
He already had his hands inside her pajamas, and she could feel her breathing becoming irregular. She had even almost moaned into the phone.
Worried that Yandel would hear something inappropriate, Natalie quickly said a few more words before ending the call.
After that, she turned around and glared at the man behind her.
