The next day, Natalie woke up early in the morning. She went to knock on Darren’s door to inform him to get ready to set off half an hour later.
“So, Mr. Luther, you’d better hurry up,” urged Natalie after hearing the response inside.
However, half an hour ago, when Natalie stood at the door of Darren’s room, she only saw he was still wrapped in a bath towel, seemingly having just taken a shower after Darren opened the door.
He had a perfect figure with clear muscle lines. Water droplets slid down his chest and his hair was wet which was quite sexy and erotic.
But Natalie wasn’t tempted. Instead, she was very mad.
She sized Darren up and said impolitely, “Don’t you tell me you just got up.”
Darren nodded. “I woke up late.”
Natalie raised her voice and confronted, “Didn’t I wake you up just now?”
“You should have come in and pulled me out of my bed, so I wouldn’t have fallen asleep again, ” Darren complained.
She took a deep breath and asked, “So how much longer do you need?”
Darren stared at her and answered, “Half an hour or maybe longer. Are you in a hurry?”
Natalie said directly, “Yes, I can’t wait to part with you. Can you hurry up?”
He turned towards his room and said casually, “Men can’t be fast. If you’re in a hurry, you can go by yourself.”
‘Do you think I want to waste time with you? But the program requires us to act together!‘ wondered Natalie angrily.
Natalie bit her lips and urged again, “Hurry up.”
“I’m afraid I can’t as you wish,” Darren replied.
Without choice, Natalie could only stand in the room, watching Darren blowing his hair and starting to make breakfast…
It was 6:30 in the morning, and only a few netizens were waiting in the live broadcast room and leaving little comments. However, when Natalie appeared in Darren’s room, the live broadcast channel became lively with lots of comments.
[OMG! A surprising gift for those who get up early! Darren is so hot!]
[What’s going on! I feel like Darren’s flirting with Nat!]
[Can I see this scene for free?]
[I think you found the key point! Mr. Luther’s showing off his figure in front of Nat on purpose!]
You guys missed the point. Don’t you see Nat’s mad face? I feel that Darren is asking for trouble.]
On the verge of exploding, Natalie asked impatiently, “Are you going to have breakfast?”
“Sure! Breakfast is important for starting a new day. Have you eaten? Would you want to have breakfast with me?”
Natalie coaxed with a smile, “I’ll treat you to breakfast.”

She went over, turned off the fire, and gently grasped Darren’s wrist.
Then Darren was dragged out of his room by Natalie forcefully and then was stuffed into the car. Strangely, Darren felt that he suddenly had no strength for no reason when Natalie tightened her grip around his wrist and he recovered once she let him go.
He sat in the passenger seat, thoughtfully gazing at Natalie, but he didn’t speak out his confusion but asked, “What are you going to treat me to eat?”
“Air and my fists, choose one.” Natalie started the car and glanced at him with a cunny smile.
Darren answered sullenly, “I choose not to eat.”
Two hours later. The car stopped in a village.
Natalie had searched, the building in the photo last night. There were words “Eighth Coal Mine” printed on the building, so it was easy to locate it.
She and Darren got out of the car and entered the village. After walking a few steps, they met a middle–aged man. Natalie took out the drawn portrait and asked, “Excuse me, do you know this person?”
The man replied quickly, “Yes, are you looking for her?”
“Yes, we have something to consult her. Where does she live?” asked Natalie.
The man looked at Natalie up and down and then said, “Well, I’ll take you there.”
Natalie hurriedly thanked with a smile and slowly folded the portrait again. Darren caught a glimpse of the portrait when he stood by the side. He had observed that the photo was taken many years ago and guessed that the show team arranged it on purpose. Natalie was very smart, so he believed she would find it out, but what surprised him was her drawing skills.
Although Darren wasn’t good at painting, he was capable of appreciating paintings and pictures, an ability that he developed from the elite education he had received since he was a child. This figure sketch had smooth lines and decisive strokes. Only a few strokes brought the character to life. He bet Natalie had profound painting skills.
‘You’re always bringing surprises, Natalie. Your stock trading talent and incredible painting skills just prove my speculation about your family background correctly,‘
The middle–aged man soon took them to Ms. Dowd’s house. She was sitting in the shade at the door of her house, holding a leaf fan and fanning the wind from time to time, seemingly waiting for someone. Natalie and Darren explained their intentions, and then Ms. Dowd led them into the house and found an envelope that was prepared in advance by the show
team.
Natalie opened the envelope and saw one task.
[Task: Help at Ms. Dowd’s house to fulfill all her requirements. You can only get a reward unless Ms. Dowd gives you good feedback at 6 pm]
In short, they came to do the labor, and they should do whatever Ms. Dowd asked them to do.
Natalie thought happily, ‘Isn’t it a piece of cake? I’m going to free myself soon!”
However, soon Natalie found that when she talked to Ms. Dowd, Ms. Dowd made no response but just looked at them and smiled. At this time the middle–aged man who brought them here explained, “She is a deaf–mute.”
‘Deaf–mute? The show team is insidious! But fortunately, I have dabbled in everything. I also know a little bit of sign language, thought Natalie proudly.
Just as Natalie was about to communicate with Ms. Dowd, Darren stepped forward and started to talk with her through sign

language.
Ms. Dowd’s eyes lit up and were filled with joy. After a while, she began to look at Darren amicably.
“She said to help her with a big clean–up first, inside and outside the house and yard,” explained Darren.
Natalie could understand their sign language as well, so she knew what Darren said was correct.
More and more netizens got into the channel and looked forward to what was going to happen next.
[It’s so funny to see Mr. Luther to be a butler in the countryside. He can’t even use a washing machine.]
[I bet they won’t be able to complete the task today, and Ms. Dowd will give a bad review!]
[If they got a bad review, it meant they would gain nothing after a laborious day, right?]
[Seriously, I saw that there are two cows. I want to see Mr. Luther herd cattle!]
[I want to see Mr. Luther shoveling manure! It’s so hilarious!]
