Bastien's words changed the way Natalie saw the man once again.

“Bastien, you're... out of your mind! You're completely out of your mind!” exclaimed Natalie.

After hearing that, Bastien stared unblinkingly at Natalie's almond-shaped eyes, filled with nothing but disgust, and

chuckled bitterly. “If losing my mind means I get to have you to myself, I don't see any problem with that.”

Repulsed by Bastien, Natalie bit her lips and accidentally wounded them.

She would rather die right then and there than allow him to push her around.

As if he could read Natalie's mind, Bastien warned before leaving, “The news of your death is out, but your children

are still alive. If you refuse treatment or endanger yourself in any way, I won't hesitate to hurt one of them.”

Before Natalie could say anything in response, Bastien was already gone.

“Come back... Come back here, Bastien! Bastien!” Even though Natalie called out for the man, he continued to walk

away as though he could not hear her.

Natalie had already exerted herself when confronting Bastien just then, so after the man left, she began to feel

pain all over her body again.

Still, her physical pain was nothing compared to her mental anguish.

Natalie thought she only had to deal with the Leitz family but never expected Bastien's scheme to be so extensive.

Not only did Bastien wait patiently for Natalie to fall into Helma's trap and fake her death, but he also had

somebody have plastic surgery to impersonate her long ago.

At that point, Natalie could not help but question what love was, for she was utterly disgusted with Bastien's show of

affection. What do I do? I can't get out; I'm trapped here. What if Samuel really thinks I'm dead after hearing the

news? Bastien knew I'd never put on the hyper-realistic mask and live the life he wanted me to live obediently, so

he threatened me with the safety of the five children. I'm backed into a corner! Bastien has ensured that my hands

are tied! ”S-Samuel... I'm still alive... Please... You have to wait for me.”

Meanwhile, at Luna Palace, Cynthia's face was contorted with rage when she received the news from her

attendant.

“What? She died?” Cynthia dropped her jaw as she stared at the subordinate. “I ask you to torture her, not kill her!

Did you have trouble understanding the order I gave you? How are you this incompetent?”

At that point, Cynthia had completely lost her composure.

She only intended to teach Natalie a lesson by having the woman tortured and get even for what she thought

Natalie's mother owed her. However, she never expected that she would end up murdering Natalie.

It was not that Cynthia cared whether Natalie was dead; she was just worried for herself because it would not be

difficult for anyone paying attention to connect Natalie's death to her.

Shrinking in fear, the male attendant then got on his knees. “Lady Cynthia, I tortured the woman as ordered, but I

never thought she'd be so weak. She stopped breathing before I could get her treated.”

“Idiot!” Cynthia bit her red lip as she lifted her leg to kick her subordinate right in the chest. “Do you have any idea

how much trouble you've caused me?”

“Lady Cynthia, I...” Even though the attendant's chest hurt, he dared not disrespect Cynthia.

“It's over! I'm doomed!” Cynthia shook her head while stomping on the man's chest and face violently until he

vomited blood.

Even when her subordinate was on the verge of death, Cynthia remained distracted. No! At this rate, people will

discover that I was responsible for what happened.

Just when Cynthia was still hesitating, a figure slowly walked in.

“Cynthia, things have just gone south, and you're already trying to silence your subordinate?” Mikhail fiddled with

his jade thumb ring as he gave the panicking woman a stern look.
