Chapter 11 I’ll Marry You

Jensen’s gaze darkened.

That man who helped Natalie–he was dangerous.

And his people couldn’t even find out who he was?

For five years, Natalie’s world had revolved solely around him–her life, her work, everything. She’d never had the time or the chance to meet someone like that.

So why would that man step in for her?

“Keep digging. If nothing turns up, use our connections on the street. I want that man’s identity, no matter what it takes. As for those society wives–call their husbands. Tell them it’s from me, Jensen. If they want to keep doing business in Ocean City, they’ll know exactly what to do.”

Jensen had dominated Ocean City for years. Calling him its uncrowned king wasn’t an exaggeration.

The businessmen and old–money families weren’t stupid. Stirring up trouble over someone like Natalie wasn’t worth the fallout.

Besides, everyone at that press conference knew how to read between the lines.

The way Natalie looked at Jensen, the way they were entangled–it was plain as day.

So Jensen wasn’t worried about those wives spreading rumors.

As for the media? With enough money, there was nothing he couldn’t control.

The only wildcard was the man who had shielded Natalie.

Looked like it was time to sit down and have a real talk with her.

Jensen rubbed his temples, an inexplicable weariness creeping in…

After the call, the doctor told him Sharon’s condition wasn’t great. He had no choice but to stay at the hospital with her.

Natalie had slept the whole afternoon and evening, buried under the covers. In the end, it was hunger that woke her.

She sat up and threw the blanket aside. Her whole body ached, every muscle sore. Her mind couldn’t help but replay the way Baron had dominated and claimed her.
