Chapter 1199 Except For Her
Mikhail immediately ordered his guards, “Protect her at all cost! Everyone here can die except for her!” The guards were taken aback. However, they were also aware of how important Natalie was to Mikhail.
When King saw the way Mikhail was teeming with energy again, he began to fight back in earnest. He exchanged a glance with Allen and started fighting again.
However, ten minutes later, bullets were flying everywhere. The stench of blood and the smoky smell of gunpowder filled the air. Despite having their bulletproof vests on, there were several bodies lying on the ground.
A bullet grazed King’s arm, and blood was gushing out from his wound. All in all, Blaze was still at an advantage. King eyed Natalie who was holding a gun.
Both her hands were gripping the gun, and her face was splattered with countless blood droplets. Then again, it was still impossible to conceal that unparalleled beautiful face of hers. More than a decade had passed. It was as if nothing had changed.
“Why? Natalie, tell me why.” King narrowed his eyes and questioned her coldly. “This man has caused so much suffering to your mother. Why do you still insist on protecting him? He’s the one who has hurt your mother!” “What about you?”
“What?” “You call yourself King. What are you good at?” mocked Natalie.
“Mikhail may be your biological father, but he has let your mother down nevertheless. As for us, we don’t have any blood relations. But I’m the one who likes you the most in this world. Before this, it was my goal to destroy Geert. Now that I have fulfilled my goal, I can give you the best of everything.”
With his hand holding his injured arm, King kept his eyes on Natalie without even blinking once. Natalie, on the other hand, snorted. “Natalie, what are you laughing about?”
“What am I laughing about? Don’t you know?” Natalie chuckled coldly before continuing, “Am I so stupid in your eyes? Both Yara and I are twin sisters. Yet, you were the one who encouraged us to hurt one another. She might have made her mistake, but that was all your doing. You have done all this just to gain control of Dexmed Pharmaceutical so that you can develop the medicine you want!”
In the past, she used to think that her fallout with Yara resulted from the instigation of Thomas and Yvonne.
Right now, she realized that they were not the main culprits. Instead, it was the man in front of her.
At the end of the day, Thomas and Yvonne were just his puppets.
“Arnold might not be my biological granddad, but he still managed to get my mother legal citizenship in Chanaea back then. He treated my mother like his own daughter. As for you, you caused my granddad to die of an ‘accident’ for your own benefit! Perhaps, you didn’t realize that Jennie Bayer was Jennie Shamrock back then. But everything that you have done hurt my mother, no?”
Just as she finished talking, King looked at Natalie’s face, and it began to overlap with Jennie’s face all of a sudden.
“Natalie, listen to me,” King tried his best to explain himself. “You and Yara may be twin sisters. But Yara resembled Mikhail, whereas you are more like your mother! Join me! For someone as intelligent as you, you can do better than manage a company like Dream. I can give you status and power. In fact, I can give you anything you want!”
When King was telling Natalie his offer, one could sense his possessiveness.
At that moment, it felt as if King was talking to Jennie.
Natalie chuckled. “I’m not interested!”
King was humiliated by her reply and became furious. “Fine. Since I cannot have you, I will destroy you.”
During the fight, Mikhail was injured too. However, he rushed forward to Natalie with his best soldiers without any regard for his own safety and said in a deep voice to King, “I will never allow you to hurt my daughter again!”
