Chapter 124 Selena Causes a Huge Scene


Natalie was slightly taken aback when Marcus unexpectedly acknowledged his mistake.

As she noticed how the drug's effects had faded completely, she untied Marcus and helped him up.

Then, they both went silent. They were at a loss for how to interact suddenly.

Moments later, Natalie broke the silence.

"Here, take this."

Natalie took out a fragrant sachet and handed it to Marcus. "I made this after Victor drugged me last time. This can help prevent powder substances like sedatives."

"And this, too," Natalie said as she passed the small dark green bottle to him. "Should the drug be in your food or drink and you catch on, take one."

"What's inside?"

"Herbals," Natalie replied concisely. "You wouldn't know even if I told you."

"What are you going to use then, after giving this to me?"

"You don't have to worry about me," she responded coldly as she sat on the couch.
