Leah cleared her throat and said, "Natalie, I'm a little thirsty. Do you have any water here?"
Natalie immediately went to get her swater.
"l only drink bottled water." Natalie passed a bottle to her. "I usually boil it before drinking, but it’s fine to drink it directly too.
"Oh. Natalie, you're so sophisticated." Leah looked at the brand of the water bottle. It was a high-end brand.
"I just like the taste of this water better. My skincare products are cheap, but that's also because I'm used to them, so | have never
changed them," Natalie said pleasantly." Drink up."
"Oh..." Leah twisted open the cap of the water bottle, drank swater, and calmed down a little. "Natalie, | only heard a little.
When | took the sip of water, | forgot everything. Perhaps because what | heard was nothing worth remembering..."

Natalie closely observed her cousin's face, trying to determine the truth of her words.
"Natalie, I'm a little scared of you looking atlike that. Were you on an important phone call just now?" Leah cleared her throat
and closed the water bottle.
Natalie smiled and shook her head. "Of course, not. It was a call from an old classmate. He had always wanted to pursue me, but
I'm used to being single-"
"Oh, oh! Natalie, your parents had always hoped that you would start a family, but you're so amazing. It will surely be easy for you
to find a man." "Leah, you're still young. There are a lot of things that you don't know yet. Getting a man is pointless. Especially a
brilliant man. Those men don't even treat women as humans. | don't want to please men. | want to be queen and be worshipped by
the man | like. That is the future | want." Natalie let out a sigh. "Right now, | am considered wealthy and powerful. | can look after
you. If you have any problems or difficulties in the future, letknow."
Leah nodded gratefully. "Hmm. | don't have any difficulties at the moment."
"But are you really not considering coming to my office to work? Being a teacher is so tiring. The pay is so-so too. It's because your
parents spoil you >d)?VKP> let you go into this. If you were my daughter, | would surely not let you tire yourself out like that,
" Natalie said in an elderly tone.
"Natalie, | have just started. | don't find it tiring! When | find it tiring and | can no longer hold on, | will surely crunning to you."
"Anytime."
In Ylore, after dinner, Avery did not want to return to her room.
"I'll take a walk with you." Elliot walked to her and grabbed her hand. "I have already gotten sinformation on where they are

Avery nodded. The difference in temperature between day and night in Ylore is quite huge.
It was almost 40 degrees during the day, and it could drop to around 20 degrees during the night.
Coming out of the hotel, a cool breeze blew by, but it was not cold.
Avery looked at the streetlights far away. She wandered aimlessly. She was extremely anxious, and she could not help but say, "You
know why | chose to study medicine when | was in college?"
"Everyone has their likes and dislikes. You like medicine."
Avery shook her head. "It was tough. No one likes it tough. | haven't told you about my grandparents, right?"
