Natasha was completely stunned. "Uh…"Meanwhile, Natalie continued to stare at them, unaware that something was amiss. "Josh, what professor are you talking about?"Professor Nancy? Professor Nancy isn't here. Josh, is there a reason you're looking for her?""Of course, there's a reason I'm looking for Professor Nancy," Joshua replied, staring straight at Natasha.It was as if he already had the answer.Natasha was a little flustered, feeling as anxious as a fox in a trapMalcolm calling her "professor" in front of Joshua caught her completely off guard. She wondered what she could do. Given her situation, it was impossible for her to come up with excuses like before.Noticing Natasha's furrowed brows and slightly panicked expression, Malcolm finally realized something was amiss. He recalled how she had suddenly grabbed his sleeve previously, trying to stop him from speaking. Had he said something wrong?Turning to Natasha, he asked quietly, "Did I say something wrong?"Nata

Joshua looked at her, repeating Natasha's words, "You don't feel like talking?""Yes, I don't feel like talking." Natasha pursed her lips, calmly meeting his gaze.Ever since that incident, she had made up her mind not to grant authorization to the Grayson family again. Since she had made up her mind, she had to stick to her decision.Hearing Natasha's resolute answer, Joshua was stunned. A stiff expression appeared on his face.The calm atmosphere in the Velvet Lounge was merely a facade, and undercurrents of dissension were running beneath its surface.The atmosphere was very strange."Are you…" Joshua started to say, sounding strained.As he spoke, he looked at the contract. In the end, however, he didn't complete his sentence."Joshua, when did you start stammering when you speak?" As if she had lost her patience, Natasha interrupted him.Joshua turned his gaze back to her and completed his sentence."Are you really Professor Nancy?" He stared at Natasha unabashedly, as i

Natasha stood there silently, neither confirming nor denying it.Malcolm had stated that she was Professor Nancy's assistant, which was quite a reasonable explanation. She could work with that.However, that would mean that she had taken Ryan's position as her own assistant. The image of Ryan's aggrieved expression appeared in her mind, and Natasha couldn't help but smile a little at the thought.Sensing the change in her expression, Malcolm turned to her. "Ms. Sullivan, why are you smiling? Was what I said incorrect?"He looked serious, and his tone was grave as he pretended to be puzzled.He was hinting at her."No, you're right." Natasha suppressed her smile. With a serious tone, she said, "I am indeed Professor Nancy's assistant."The professor has been busy following up with many international projects lately. So, she has delegated all the authorization work in Oceanville to me."So, she was Professor Nancy's assistant? Joshua's gaze landed on her, thoughtful, surprised, a

Natasha glanced at him. The smile that was always on her lips was nowhere to be seen. All she wore on her face was an indifferent stare.Joshua suddenly found Natasha's gaze piercing. How could her eyes be so cold?In the past, Natasha was always smiling at him. Even if she was not smiling, she was gentle and considerate.Ella had once told him that Natasha was famous in the wealthy circles of Oceanville for being as beautiful as a fairy.On top of that, she had a good personality. She had never scolded the maids for their mistakes, which made many other families' maids envy those of the Grayson family.Her cold stare made Joshua feel very uncomfortable.A strange emotion he had never experienced bubbled within him. It wasn't discomfort or regret, but Joshua couldn't describe it.However, one thing was certain—he hated this feeling. He hated being controlled by emotions."Do you have anything else to say?" Natasha looked at him coldly, her tone flat.For some reason, Joshua su

Natalie was stunned. Did Joshua just scold her because of Natasha? She couldn't believe it. "Josh, I—" But before she could finish, Joshua interrupted her.He strode to the floor-to-ceiling window, looking down at the bustling streets below.During the rush hour in Oceanville, the roads were filled with people and cars. The lanes of cars slowly inched forward in the heavy traffic.Watching the flashing lights and the intoxicatingly glamorous and bustling Oceanville, he asked, "Why can't Natasha be Professor Nancy's assistant?""I didn't say she couldn't be her assistant."Natalie was more cautious this time, choosing her words carefully to avoid angering Joshua."It's just that Natasha didn't graduate from a prestigious university, nor has she studied pharmaceuticals. So, how could she possibly be Professor Nancy's assistant?"She may be another professor's assistant, but this is Professor Nancy we're talking about."Many people are eager to get that position, and even many
