“Don’t panic,” Natalie uttered nonchalantly.

Panic-stricken, Lia pressed her palm hard on her chest and gasped. “I’d already caused you trouble

once and almost met my end! If I were to do it again, I would surely put someone’s life on the line

again. How could I pay the price for my grievous deed if any mishap occurs again?”

Natalie snorted. “I didn’t say that you have to put anyone’s life on the line, did I?”

“Did you manage to come up with an idea?” Lia asked eagerly.

“Ms. Johnson, even if I can resolve the problem for you this round, it doesn’t mean that I’ll be able to

keep helping you with that. You know it too well that your inner demons are the root cause of

everything, don’t you? As long as you don’t eliminate it, you’ll never be able to be your own self,”

Natalie uttered solemnly.

On the other side of the line, Lia clenched her fists as she mumbled, “My… my inner demons.”

“Are you willing to make a bet to find out how important you are to Lionel?” Natalie asked subtly.

“Make a bet? In his eyes, I’ll be his sister forever. Since I’ve known about it long ago, what’s the point

for me to do so?” Lia mumbled self-deprecatingly.

“It’s up to you. Anyway, I will give you three days to think about it.” The next moment, Natalie hung up

on her.

It’s merely a matter of opinion when commenting about right and wrong. Hence, she could not jump to

a hasty conclusion about the previous matter related to the Johnson family.

Natalie was willing to help Lia as she did not wish to see her fall into Yara’s trap and get exploited to

carry out any heinous deed again. Thus, she thought of pulling Lia out of the predicament before it was

too late. Nonetheless, the final decision was in the latter’s hands.

Three days later, Natalie was savoring wine in a private room in The Moonlight. Shortly after, Lia

pushed open the door and entered.

“Have you made up your mind?” Natalie cut to the chase.

Lia nodded earnestly. “Yeah, I’ve thought it through. I’m willing to give it a try. After all, nobody else can

help me now other than you. After sitting on this for two days, I realize sooner or later I’ll have to part

with Lionel, regardless of how much I love him. Thus, I would rather talk myself to have a clearer

insight into the whole matter. It’s pointless for me to cry over spilled milk when he finally thinks of

marrying another woman one day.”

After taking a sip of her wine, Natalie beckoned to her with a smile. “Come over. Let me tell you the first

thing you need to do.”

Lia nodded and leaned closer to her.

Moments later, she hesitated upon hearing Natalie’s words, but she remained silent.

In the meantime, Yara went to the Hamilton residence to see Scarlett. She was the apple of Charles

Hamilton, the patriarch’s eye. Apart from having a stunning look, she was a very capable young

woman.

On the other hand, Zayden, her younger brother, was a flamboyant womanizer. There was a rumor that

he had even caused the tragic death of some women in bed.

Since then, Charles was totally disappointed with him and doted on Scarlett even more.

Meanwhile, Scarlett was deemed one of the most fabled socialites in Dellmoor. She was just back from

furthering her studies overseas in the past two years.

Guided by the housekeeper, Yara entered Scarlett’s bedroom after passing through the lavishly

designed corridor. |

At the sight of the impressive design of the Hamilton residence, Yara could not resist feeling jealous

and clenching her fists again,

Even though she was the eldest heiress of Dexmed Pharmaceutical, she was not comparable to

Scarlett, a direct bloodline of the prominent family. Regardless of how Kenneth backed her up, she

knew she could never exude the vibe of dignity as a socialite of a prestigious family like Scarlett:

Soon, she stepped into Scarlett’s study

Looking stunning with her long wavy hair, the latter shot Yara a glance with utter disdain amid hostility

in her eyes. She closed the book in her hands and looked intently at Lia. “What a great surprise! I

almost couldn’t believe it when the butler notified me moments ago that you were here to see me. Yara,

I’m sure you know better than anyone else that I’ve been loathing you since two years ago. Because of

the Bowers family, I’ve not inflicted any harm on you. After all, we are supposed to have no trucks with

each other, aren’t we? It never crosses my mind that you have the guts to come straight to see me!”
