“Okey, I'll keep Joyce compeny. Go meke the cell now. We must leeve before Stenley gets here,” Ceitlin urged.

“Hello, Joyce,” Netelie greeted efter bringing the cell phone to her eer.

“Okay, I'll keep Joyce company. Go make the call now. We must leave before Stanley gets here,” Caitlin urged.

Jonathan nodded solemnly and made his way to the living room. There, he used the landline to call Natalie.

Natalie and Lina had just had breakfast. They were about to head to the competition hall to start working for the

day.

After walking out of the villa, she had yet to get in the car when her cell phone in her bag rang.

Natalie stopped in her tracks and pulled her cell phone out. Surprise flashed across her eyes when she realized it

was the landline number of the Rivers family.

“What's wrong?” Lina asked curiously.

Natalie shook her head, baffled. “Nothing. It's a call from Joyce.”

“Joyce?” Lina's confused gaze landed on her cell phone. “I think it's midnight there. Why is she calling at this hour?

She should be in bed by now. Also, why did she call using the landline instead of using her cell phone?”

“I don't know. Maybe something happened to her cell phone but she needs to talk to me urgently. Anyway, I'll have

to answer it and find out what's going on.” Natalie shot Lina a smile. She then swiped her finger across her cell

phone screen to answer the call.

“Hello, Joyce,” Natalie greeted after bringing the cell phone to her ear.

“Okay, I'll keep Joyce company. Go make the call now. We must leave before Stanley gets here,” Caitlin urged.

However, it wasn't Joyce who answered her. An elderly and exhausted voice rang out from the other end of the line.

“Nat, it's me.”

“Mr. Rivers.” Natalie stood straight in surprise. “Why are you calling me at this hour? Did something happen?”

At the other end of the line, Jonathan turned over his shoulder to glance at his daughter's door. Exhaling helplessly,

he said, “Nat, I'm really sorry. I wouldn't have contacted you if we had another choice. I never wanted to trouble

you again.”

Sensing his helplessness, Natalie tensed up. “Mr. Rivers, be honest with me. Did something happen?”

“It's Stanley.” Jonathan tightened his grip on his cell phone as fury surged through him. “He found us.”

“What?” Natalie was shocked. Her face clouded over.

“Nat, what's wrong?” Lina asked upon noticing the look on Natalie's face.

Natalie shook her head before returning her focus to the phone conversation. “Mr. Rivers, are you telling the truth?

Did Stanley really find you?”

Lina's jaw dropped in disbelief. “Stanley found Joyce? How is that possible?”

Natalie bit her lip silently to show that she agreed with Lina's words. However, Jonathan seemed sure about it.

There was no reason for him to lie to her, as this concerned Joyce's safety.

“Yes. He found us.” Jonathan let out a tired sigh.

Natalie held her cell phone tightly. “How did he find you? Is he at your house?”

“No, he isn't here yet,” Jonathan replied and shook his head. “My wife and I heard Joyce crying, so we asked her

what happened. Joyce told me that Stanley called her.”

The look on Natalie's face changed instantly. “Stanley found out Joyce's phone number? How did he get it?”

Joyce had changed all her contact information after leaving J City. Shane had also helped her set up various

restrictions for her number.

Others wouldn't know Joyce's number if they didn't tell them first.

How did Stanley get her phone number?

Jonathan massaged his temples and responded weakly, “We don't know the exact details. Joyce wasn't clear about

it. All she said was that Stanley suddenly called her. I guess someone told Stanley her number. Otherwise, he

wouldn't have had her number.”

“That sounds plausible. But Mr. Rivers, are you sure it was Stanley? Joyce has forgotten all about Stanley. Is there a

possibility she mistook someone else for him?” Natalie asked, hope evident in her voice.
