Joanna''s story was still trending online.
Natalie told Keith to keep up the pressure. She had her own entertainment
the day.
Joanna''s luck wouldn''tst forever.
Or rather, her luck would only get better, and if she wanted to break into the entertainment industry, Natalie was more than happy to y along.
After the holidays, once things at the resort settled down, she could focus on it.
The man backing Joanna operated a whole brain trust, a team that was always around them, watching their every move.
It wasposed of experts, schrs, and consultants from various fields with diverse backgrounds and experience, excelling at everything from problem-solving to strategic nning.
That''s why they had to be so cautious.
Make one small move, and hopefully, the opponent would slip up.
Unfortunately, in her past life, she had been held captive by Sebastian for three months after getting pregnant. A lot happened during that time, and she could only learn about the outside world through the news.
But it was hard to tell what was real and what was fake in the media.
Natalie was staring nkly in her office when she received a message from Luna.
[Sophia and Joanna have gone out to sea.]
Natalie nced at the weather outside. Going out to sea in this weather? It didn''t take a genius to figure out what Joanna was nning.
There was no way she was keeping that baby.
No matter who the father was, its existence would threaten her future.
Natalie shook her head. Joanna was truly ruthless.
Natalie messaged Luna back.
[Luna, send someone to follow them and get evidence.]
Luna: [I''ll go myself.]
Natalie: [You can''t. Joanna knows you work for me. If she sees you, she''ll try to kill
you. Send one of our bodyguards instead.]
Luna: [Okay!]
Seeing it was still early, Natalie
decided to go to the hospital to visit
Mrs. Wilson: She hoped that talking
to her might help her wake up
sooner While she was unconscious, to go after
ae husband was certain to go
her family''s assets.
She grabbed her phone and car keys and left the office, taking the elevator straight to the garage.
Once she got to the underground garage, a st of cold air hit her, and she shivered, pulling her puffer coat tighter around herself.
Once in the car, she turned on the heat, and warmth flooded the small space.
She started the car and drove out of the garage.
At the hospital, she checked in with her senior colleague first before going to see Mrs. Wilson.
The frostbite on Mrs. Wilson''s face hadpletely discolored her skin, contorting her features. Even with the best medicine, the dead tissue was already starting to peel.
Natalie activated a hand warmer and held it until her hands were warm. Then, she gently took Mrs. Wilson''s hand. "Mrs. Wilson, I''m here to see you again," she said with a smile.
"It''s so cold outside I hate winter
it''s
just miserable. I sleep so heavily in the winter, someone could carry me off and I wouldn''t even know."
“I love spring, Mrs. Wilson. When all the flowers are in bloom and everything is so full of life...."
Natalie talked for a long time, and she noticed tears welling in the corners of Mrs. Wilson''s eyes. Her eyelids twitched.
Natalie saw it and a faint smile touched her lips.
"Mrs. Wilson, don''t know what you went through that night, but I know you''re the one who''s not letting yourself Wake up. But no matter how great the pain, you can get through it. Think of your daughter, think of your parents. We can live without men, we can be beautiful on our own, but we can''t abandon our parents."
"I know you love your mom and dad very much. They''re the ones who love you most
in this world, the ones who will always forgive you. You can''t let them mourn you."
"You have to wake up soon. Your parents need you right now. Mr. Wilson is liquidating assets. I''m telling you this because I want to give you a reason to live."
