For a moment, the entire room plunged into a deathly silence.

With her frantic breathing roaring in her ears, Natalie unwittingly stumbled two steps before her legs gave up, and

she slumped onto the floor.

“I... I didn't do that on purpose. You were the one who touched me,” she stammered with her face pale and her

eyes fixated on Sean.

Cradling his arm that was still bleeding, Sean likewise stared at her. He said nothing, but the look in his eyes was

terrifyingly dark and grim.

Natalie lifted the knife and placed it against her own neck. “I know you must be seized by the urge to rip me into

shreds after I injured you twice. However, you only have yourself to blame. I warned you not to come any closer,

but you ignored my warning. Therefore, don't blame me for hurting you. Admittedly, I can't bring myself to kill you

because I can't accept taking a life. But I can still end my own life!”

At that, she pressed her knife hard against her flesh.

Immediately, a shallow cut appeared on her neck. Blood oozed out and trickled down the blade, making a

gruesome sight.

Sean's eyes went wide, for he never expected her to hurt herself.

He hastily stretched out a hand. “What are you doing, Natalie?”

Natalie gripped the handle of the knife tightly. “Can't you see what I'm doing? I know you brought me here to use

me as leverage to deal with Shane besides forcing me to be with you. This is the best solution to ruin your plans.

Then, you won't get me, nor will you be able to blackmail Shane.”

Sean's expression darkened considerably. “I didn't expect you to be willing to go this far just for his sake and so that

I won't touch you!”

“I've got no other choice, so this is the only recourse left. For that reason, Sean, stay away from me if you don't

want me to die. Don't get any ideas about me.” Natalie regarded him coldly.

Likewise, Sean pinned his gaze on her. Several minutes later, he abruptly guffawed. “I've really lost to you, Natalie.

You're right. Indeed, I can't bear to see you die. Fine, I won't touch you. But as I've said, I'll have you accept me. I

have all the time in the world, so if it doesn't happen now, we'll work at it for the rest of our lives!”

After saying that, he stormed out of the room.

After all, the injury on his head and arm required timely treatment.

At the sound of the door slamming shut, all the tension drained out of Natalie. She released her grip on the knife in

her hands.

With a clang, the knife fell to the floor.

Covering her face, she started weeping helplessly.

That was a close call! If I hadn't grabbed the vase and knife in time and injured him, he might have really defiled

me tonight!

In truth, she didn't want to die. She wanted to go back alive and return to Shane and her three children.

Thus, she had no other choice but to hold the knife against her neck and threaten Sean with her life.

She knew that the man loved her, so he wouldn't stand idly by and would undoubtedly cease at once.

But at the same time, she was worried that his love for her wasn't that deep, and he wouldn't care about her life.

Hence, she was actually taking a gamble then, betting that he loved her deeply and couldn't bear to see her die.

Only God knew how apprehensive and anxious she was during those few minutes he was staring at her. She was

utterly worried that he would end up merely laughing and telling her to go ahead if she wanted to die.

Thankfully, she still won the bet in the end.

Of course, if she had lost, she would end her life for real.

She didn't just say that earlier to threaten him. In all honesty, she was also serious at that time.

As long as she no longer existed, he wouldn't be able to have her or use her as leverage against Shane.

I might have won this time, but what about the next time?

Natalie curled into herself, unease ricocheting within her.

I used a knife to threaten Sean and force him to back off this time, but it might not necessarily work the next time.

If he taunts me to just end things the next time, then I'll really be forced to take my life.

She heaved a sigh, a bitter smile blooming on her face.
