When She Rose From the Ashes

Chapter 43

Chapter 43 Proof of Trust

“Fine. Now give me her things.”

Baron didn’t think there was anything wrong with his demand. But Renee frowned slightly.

“Who are you? What’s your relationship with Natalie?”

She could feel the dangerous aura rolling off him, heavy with bloodshed. Even though she was afraid, she couldn’t stop worrying about Natalie.

Natalie had always been like a flower raised in a greenhouse. Jensen hadn’t wanted her in the spotlight, which was why she’d been bullied and suppressed for so long.

Now, how had she gotten involved with a man as dangerous as Baron?

Renee hadn’t voiced her suspicions, but Baron caught the guarded look in her eyes.

He was glad Natalie had a friend who truly cared for her, but he didn’t want to waste words.

“I slept with her. What do you think our relationship is?”

Renee’s eyes widened.

No one knew Natalie’s modesty better than she did.

She had loved Jensen for five years without ever giving herself to him-yet she had slept with this man?

“You’re sure you’re not lying?”


“I have no reason to lie.”
