With that, the two of them went to the bedroom where she lived.
Although Kenya looked very cool, she was just a young girl in her early twenties after all. Her room was decorated in pink and looked very romantic.
Natalia took a cursory glance at it and didn't look any further. Kenya brought over a new dress and said, "You can change into this one. I just bought it and haven't worn it yet."
Natalia smiled gently, "Okay, thanks."
"Then you can change here. I'll go out first."
"Okay."
Kenya went out, so Natalia changed the clothes in her room. When she was done changing and went back out, she didn't see Kenya.
She couldn't help but frown slightly.
The Stevenson family was a completely unfamiliar place for her, as the rooms were too many and complex in design. Besides, if she remembered correctly, the two of them had walked for a long time when they came over, which meant that Kenya's room should be far away from the living room.
In such a situation, she could easily not find her way to the living room if she did not have someone she knew to lead the way.
With this in mind, Natalia did not rush around. She waited for a while and then, when she saw that she had not returned, she walked in the direction she remembered.
However, it was at that moment.
As she passed through the corridor, she suddenly heard the sound of a man and a woman arguing from the room next to her.
"Allen! Aren't you going too far with this? Such a large sum of money is gone just like that. How do you want me to explain this to Mrs. Stevenson?"
"Alma, listen to me. It's not that the money is gone. I've taken it to make investments. As you know, many investments abroad cannot be recovered within a short period of time once the money is put in. Don't you want me to die if you ask me for money now?"
"I don't care! I just said to put that money with you for now. I didn't say you could have it invested. You took it upon yourself. If they do look into the accounts, not to mention you, even I will be implicated. You must get that money back right now!"
"Alma, it's not that I don't want it back, but I really can't get it back. Besides, don't we have a few months before they check the accounts at the end of the year? Why are you in such a hurry? I'll just pull back my investment when the time comes."
"That's easy for you to say. Can you withdraw the money you've invested just because you want to?"
"Then what can I do? 200 million isn't a small amount. I can't get that much money right now."
200 million?
Natalia raised an eyebrow.
It seemed to be a case of misappropriation of public funds.
She had heard the name Alma mentioned when they were chatting earlier, and she seemed to be Mrs. Stevenson's daughter. In terms of seniority, she would have been Charlie's aunt.
She didn't know the men inside. But whoever it was, it sounded like he had a lot of connections with the Stevenson family. Otherwise, Alma would not have given him the 200 million.
Natalia thought about it, decided it was none of her business, and wasn't going to listen any further.
She was about to leave when she heard the man inside say, "If it wasn't for Charlie, I wouldn't have been kicked out of the Stevenson Group by Mrs. Stevenson, and now I have to sneak around just to move some money."
Charlie?
At once, she stopped in his tracks.
