Chapter 16 She Wants to Ruin Natalie
Sharon was quite pleased with how things were going.
She smiled smugly. “As long as you do what I say, I guarantee you’ll be living the good life.”
“Yes, Ms. Summers. I await your orders.”
rk lowered his eyes, hiding the disgust shing through them.

He couldn’t afford to offend Mr. Luke–not if he wanted to keep paying for his sister’s treatment.
Once Sharon had tidied her clothes, she spoke calmly. “Have someone watch Natalie. The second she’s alone–grab her. I want her right hand destroyed. She’ll never pick up a pencil again.”
rk’s <b>face </b>went visibly pale.
“Ms. Summers<b>… </b>maybe it’s better to hire someone <b>else </b>for this<b>. </b>Natalie knows me. She’ll recognize me.”
Sharon sneered. “Hire someone? Are <i>you </i>paying for it? You think Natalie deserves my money? That bitch deserves to be skinned alive. What, are you hesitating?”
She waved her phone at him.
rk instantly froze, like she’d grabbed him by the throat. He couldn’t say a word.
But Sharon wasn’t done.
“If Jensen finds out about this<b>, </b>I’ve got a dozen ways to make hime after <b><i>you</i></b><b><i>. </i></b>Don’t believe me? Try it.”
Cold sweat beaded on rk’s forehead. His fists clenched, but he knew there was no room to argue.
<b>“</b><b>I </b>understand, Ms. Summers<b>.” </b>
“Then go. Do what I said. And I expect results within days.”
<b>“</b>Yes<b>.</b><b>” </b>
rk left the hospital.
Meanwhile, Baron was in excellent spirits after hearing that Natalie would personally design a pair of cufflinks for him. His mood had lightened so much, even his subordinates felt the change.
And they were smart enough to notice. If a good future meant Baron and Natalie staying close, then they’d fully support it.
Just then, Baron received an international call.
“Mr. Baron, something’s happened. You need to return immediately.”
Whatever the caller said next made Baron’s expression darken.
A wave of lethal pressure rolled off him, suffocating the entire room.

“Phantom stays to watch over Natalie. Everyone else, pack up–we’re returning to Murica.”
With that, the room kicked into action.
Phantom silently left Baron’s side to fulfill the order.
Natalie had no idea danger was approaching.

She had finished packing all her belongings and even asked Renee for a foreign address to ship her things ahead of her departure.
Just then, the immigration office called. There was a document that needed her signature in person.
Natalie had already nned to push for an expedited process, so she grabbed her bag and headed out.
rk saw her leave and immediately disguised himself as a taxi driver, hiding his face behind a mask.
“Need a ride, miss?” he asked, voice low and gravelly, standing by a regr–looking cab.
Natalie didn’t think twice and nodded, getting into the car.
“Immigration office, please.”
She lowered her head to check her phone.
Renee had just sent her a file—an additional contract for the Grant International Holdings training program. She was instructed to sign and fax it back as soon as possible.
Natalie waspletely focused, unaware that the car had veered far off course.
By the time she looked up from the document, the vehicle hade to a stop–deep in a remote mountainous area outside the city.
rm bells exploded in her head. She reached for the door in a panic.
But rk locked it instantly.
“Ms. Summers, don’t struggle. I’m not here to kill you. I just need something from you.”
His voice was unnervingly low.
Still, Natalie recognized him. <fnd445> Th?s chapter is updated by FιndNovel</fnd445>
“rk? Did Jensen send you? What does he want?!”
rk flinched.
He hadn’t expected to be recognized–he’d taken every precaution.
But Natalie’s words gave him a way out.
“Since you know Mr. Luke sent me,” rk said slowly, “you should also know this–whatever I’m about to do, you can’t escape it. Mr. Luke runs Ocean City. So I suggest you cooperate.”

Natalie’s heart pounded.
She sensed this wasn’t going to end well–but still clung to a sliver of hope.
“What exactly did Jensen tell you to do?”

rk thought of his sister, still waiting in the hospital for surgery. And he thought of Sharon, now legally tied to Mr. Luke. Natalie would never be Luke family’s matriarch–not anymore.
Natalie had no power, no family backing her.
Sharon, on the other hand, was now the legal Mrs. Luke.
If he had to offend someone, better it be Natalie.
He took a deep breath.
“Miss Sharon is Mr. Luke’s treasured one now. Her dream of bing Sunny was shattered by you. Mr. Luke couldn’t stand seeing her hurt<b>, </b>so he ordered me to break your right hand.”
His voice was eerily calm.
“You have my word–you’ll survive. But once your right hand’s gone, you’ll never hold a pencil again.”
