“Baron, listen to me. I can try designing with my left hand. It’s just a right hand, I don’t care. Don’t go to Witch Doctor for me! That man is insane!”

Natalie thought of that moment five years ago, and even now her heart still trembled with fear. She absolutely could not let Baron risk himself.

“Baron, you have so many people depending on you. And you have plenty of enemies, don’t you? You really don’t need to do this for me. Just being alive is already enough for me. As long as I survive, I’ll take my revenge myself. A woman’s face is only appearance-it isn’t her life. Please, come back now!”

Her panic was so raw that she tried to sit up, only to tear at her wounds, her face turning pale with the pain.

Baron saw her like this, and his restlessness and violence suddenly eased.

“Trust me. Witch Doctor can’t hurt me.”

“No! Witch Doctor really is a madman! Baron, please come back, will you? I don’t know anyone here. I… I miss you.”

That last line made Baron’s pale hand clench hard around the phone, his fingers pressing so tightly against the edge it nearly cracked.

“Say that last part again.”

His voice was hoarse, but his gaze burned with heat.

Natalie realized she shouldn’t have said that. She didn’t even know why Baron was so good to her. Was it really just because they had slept together once?

Still, she couldn’t deny the gratitude she felt for him saving her.

If he ended up hunted by Witch Doctor, if he lost something important because of her, she would never forgive herself.

Biting her lip, she caught the burned skin and blood welled across her mouth. The sting made her whole body flinch, but she stared at Baron and forced out each word.
