She no longer loved Elliot, but her heart still ached when she sees the photo of Elliot and Avery together. Perhaps she felt jealous of
how well they were doing when she was stuck in a series of misfortunes. Despite feeling envious, she no longer felt the urge to
compete against them because she realized she was not capable of it.
All she wanted in the present was to get as much money as she could from them.
"Avery and Elliot are on vacation in Kanton." Natalie set her phone down and took out a cigarette.
She was currently in Holly's rented apartment.
They both lived in the sarea and since Holly refused to go to her apartment, Natalie went to Holly's and they would either
order takeout, or she would do grocery shopping and Holly would cook.
"Natalie, don't you ever think about just marrying a rich guy?" Holly took out a cigarette from Natalie's cigarette box.

Natalie immediately helped her light it.
"What's so good about getting married? As rich as those guys might be, it's still their money. It's only your money if you are the
one who earns it." Natalie inhaled with the cigarette between her lips. "I can't stand the thought of having to obey my husband and
my in-laws. I'd rather stay single, unless | find a rich guy whose parents are both dead..."
Holly was amused.
"Such as Elliot. | would take Elliot even if he's not as rich as he is right now, but | have always sucked at relationships. The men
afterare often beneath me, and the ones | do like are too brilliant and | have far too many competitions. So tell me, what's the
point of finding a guy?" Natalie continued.
Holly burst into laughter. "Natalie, have you not thought of dating someone younger?"
Natalie scowled. "Younger? Younger than me, you mean?"
"Yeah! | don't like guys older than me. Younger ones are my favourite. My last boyfriend was ten years younger than me. | would
still be dating him if | didn't notice that someone was looking for me," Holly said with satisfaction. "Don't be too stubborn."
"lI don't like childish men. | don't share your taste. | prefer stronger men."
"Alright! Since you've made up your mind, it's fine to stay single as well. Freedom is just as sweet." Holly shook the ashes of her
cigarette and changed the subject. "Have you found the right candidate?"
"lI haven't even started looking! | will only start once | know for sure that Elliot is hiring. Relax, it's not that hard. Being Elliot's
assistant is a job countless people would kill to get."
"Yeah."
"I still know people from Tate Industries and Sterling Group. They weren't important individuals, but | will know whenever
something happens," Natalie said. "I only managed to succeed back then because of my ability and because I'm resourceful."
"If you didn't make the wrong decision, you would be successful by now!"

"What's the point in thinking about that? There's no going back in time. If | gamble right this time, | might just get myself out of
this." Natalie did not want to show any remorse in front of an outsider, knowing that regret would not change a thing.
After finishing her cigarette, Natalie's phone rang. She put the cigarette out in the ash tray and unlocked her phone to find a new
message.
[Chad will be transferred to the Bridgedale branch of Tate Industries after Christmas. My sources are reliable. This will be
announced after the holidays."
Her eyes lit up as soon as she saw the message. Everything had gone as she had expected.
She immediately replied. [What's Chad's new position?"
[Your previous position. ]
Natalie's smile froze.
Meanwhile...
