    “Baron, listen to me. I can try designing with my left hand. It’s just a right hand, I don’t care. Don’t go to Witch Doctor for me! That man is insane!”


    Natalie thought of that moment five years ago, and even now her heart still trembled with fear. She absolutely could not let Baron risk himself.


    “Baron, you have so many people depending on you. And you have plenty of enemies, don’t you? You really don’t need to do this for me. Just being alive is already enough for me. As long as I survive, I’ll take my revenge myself. A woman’s face is only appearance-it isn’t her life. Please,e back now!”


    Her panic was so raw that she tried to sit up, only to tear at her wounds, her face turning pale with the pain.


    Baron saw her like this, and his restlessness and violence suddenly eased.


    “Trust me. Witch Doctor can’t hurt me.”


    “No! Witch Doctor really is a madman! Baron, pleasee back, will you? I don’t know anyone here. I… I miss you.”


    Thatst line made Baron’s pale hand clench hard around the phone, his fingers pressing so tightly against the edge it nearly cracked.


    “Say thatst part again.”


    His voice was hoarse, but his gaze burned with heat.


    Natalie realized she shouldn’t have said that. She didn’t even know why Baron was so good to her. Was it really just because they had slept together once?


    Still, she couldn’t deny the gratitude she felt for him saving her.


    If he ended up hunted by Witch Doctor, if he lost something important because of her, she would never forgive herself.


    Biting her lip, she caught the burned skin and blood welled across her mouth. The sting made her whole body flinch, but she stared at Baron and forced out each word.


    “Baron, please,e back. I miss you.”


    Her hoarse voice, scraped raw by fire, wasn’t beautiful. Yet now it was like the sweetest music, sinking straight into


    his chest,


    And with the red blood staining her lips, Baron’s pulse surged hot and wild.


    “All right. I’lle back tomorrow.”

    He hung up.

    His lips curved upward, his eyes bright withughter, but his hands yanked a scalpel from his coat pocket and rolled it in his palm.


    Natalie missed him.


    He had to get back quickly.


    But before returning, there were things-and people-he still had to deal with.


    Natalie hadn’t expected that the moment she spoke, Baron would end the call.


    And what did he mean? Why tomorrow?


    Did he still intend to find Witch Doctor for her? <fna72b> N?w ?ovel chapt?rs are published on find[f]ovel</fna72b>


    She shook her head hard.


    No, no, no.


    Her survival was already a miracle. She couldn’t let Baron sacrifice anything more for her sake.


    She tried to call him back, but no one picked up.


    She thought of asking Yvonne for help, but Yvonne wasn’t there.


    Anxious and desperate, Natalie struggled to rise, but every movement tore fresh agony across her body.


    The pain was inhuman.


    Her mind filled with Sharon’s gloating face.


    She had given Jensen up.


    So why had Sharon still needed to take her life?


    And Jensen-


    Five years of devotion, thrown to the dogs.


    If she still had breath in her, she would repay this blood debt with her own hands.


    Forcing herself upright, she rubbed her torn skin raw. Blood gushed, the pain like being yed alive. She couldn’t bear it, and fainted dead away.


    The nurse heard the crash and rushed in. One look at the blood and she screamed, running out for help.


    The whole vi was suddenly in chaos.

    Baron knew nothing of this. He toyed with the scalpel in his hand, then strode into a ck market shop.

    Outside, the ce looked ordinary. But inside, the décor wasvish-and more importantly, it held the most advanced surgical suites and equipment in the world.


    Upstairs, Baron stripped off his coat and changed into ck casual clothes.


    Facing the tall mirror, he stared at his reflection, at the scar across his chest. His eyes hardened.


    That scar had been there for years.


    He touched it lightly with his pale, slender fingers, his lips curling into a bloody smile.


    From a cab, he took paints, blended the colors, and began painting over his neck and shoulders.


    Soon a bluish tattoo spread across his skin.


    He used special pigment to cover the red beauty mark at the corner of his eye.


    Atst, he lifted a silver mask and fastened it over his face.
