“I’m going to the restroom.” Natalie wanted to take a breather.
“All right.” Christopher nodded.
He lighted his cigar and took a deep puff.
After Natalie left, Joshua immediately said, “Christopher, is she your prey?”
Christopher took another deep puff of his cigar, infusing his lungs with the smoke before releasing it. “Prey? She’s not just my prey. Many are eyeing for her!”

He couldn’t understand the beauty standards pursued by men nowadays. To him, it did not make sense at all for them to be fond of a person like Natalie who had mediocre looks.

After spending almost all her time accompanying Old Mr. Bowers at the Bowers residence, she could no longer tolerate the overwhelming boredom.
She finally had the chance to meet her friends and have a drink, only to find herself meeting Natalie here.
