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."

Marcus silently took the things Natalie handed him. He placed the fragrant sachet near his nose and sniffed. It carried a hint of gardenia's fragrance, complemented by a faint osmanthus scent.

"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.

Marcus' face was pale, and there was a thin film of sweat on his forehead. He clamped his lips together, looking up at Natalie from his place on the carpet.

This was already the second time.

It was the second time he was drugged, and Natalie didn't take the opportunity to seduce him. Instead, she slapped him and gave him the antidote.
