Luca sighed deeply, his grip tightening around Natalie's hand. She tried to struggle against him, her eyes filled with defiance.

But Luca was not ready to let go. “I know that you are a strong woman and that you can do whatever you put your mind to. But, I just want to let you know that I still care about you," Luca said, his voice filled with desperation. "If Ivan never wants you anymore, you can come back to me..."

Natalie's heart raced with anger and confusion. How could Luca presume to dictate her future? She tried to pull her hand away, but his grip only tightened.

As the situation got out of control, Ivan appeared out of nowhere, his eyes narrowing at the sight of Natalie's hand in Luca's. He got so angry that his face turned blue.

"Ivan?" Natalie called out, shock evident in her voice. Had he come to find her?

Ivan's anger flared at the sight before him. He stormed over, grabbing Luca by the collar and throwing him forcefully to the ground. Luca winced in pain as he rubbed his

She couldn't muster the same happiness that radiated from Luca, her heart heavy with guilt and regret.

Natalie shook her head again, not explaining anything to him.Curiosity danced in Luca's eyes as he observed Natalie's behavior, but he couldn't contain his excitement any longer.

Natalie, we are not biological siblings..." He stated.Natalie trembled. She had not expected that Scott would know that. "I know, and so?" She asked. She loved him as her brother. She now began to understand what might have been going through his mind.Scott sighed again and took a step towards her. "Natalie! Stop pretending to be innocent. I have been close to you for so long. And, I developed feelings for you. Can you give me a chance?"Natalie froze in place. She had not expected that he would say it straight in her face. She hurriedly shook her

    Ivan stormed out of his office, his mind filled with a torturous mix of anger, fear, and inverts. He swiftly reached for his phone, dialing Natalie's number with urgency. As the call connected, relief washed over him when he heard her voice at the other end."Natalie, where are you?" Ivan asked, his tone filled with a sense of urgency. He needed to ensure her safety, to shield her from the looming threat of Black.Natalie's voice held a hint of surprise as she responded, "I'm actually meeting a friend, Ivan. Is everything okay?"Ivan interrupted her mid-sentence, his tone commanding and lacking of room for argument. "I want you to go back home, right now. It's important."Confusion crept into Natalie's voice as she tried to comprehend the sudden change in Ivan's behaviour. "But Ivan, can you please tell me what's going on? Why do you want me to go back home so urgently?"Ivan's voice remained firm, not allowing any room for negotiation. "I'll explain everything once you're back home. P

Ivan hesitated for a moment before reluctantly reaching for the phone and swiping to answer the call."What do you want this time?" Ivan asked, his voice filled with caution. He was getting irritated every time he saw a call from this man. Had it not been for the agreement they had made with Alex, he would have done something chaotic."Meet me," Black's voice came through the speaker, low and gravelly. "I have something important to discuss." He did not seem to be asking politely. It came off as a command.Ivan's mind raced, anger filling him. Black was really pushing him off his limits. He was forcing him to do things he did not want to do so soon. "What if I refused to meet you?" Ivan managed to choke out, his voice betraying his anger. But Black chuckled sinisterly. "Oh, Ivan, don't play dumb. You know exactly who I am. And I know everything about your precious Natalie and lit

    Abruptly, Ivan turned to face her, his eyes filled with a a very unfamiliar look. His voice cut through the air as he spoke. He was so distant. "You're right, Natalie," he declared, the words landing like a dagger to her heart. "You have hurt me, time and time again. And yes, I have been a coward, hiding away from you in this room. Perhaps it's best if we end everything."The room seemed to spin around Natalie, her breath catching in her throat. The pain within her intensified, tearing at her heart. She searched Ivan's face, seeking to see the man she had trusted so deeply, only to find a stranger in his place."No," she whispered, her voice filled with determination. "Ivan, this isn't you. We can't let everything crumble like this. Please, talk to me. Tell me what's going on."Ivan's gaze wavered, the walls he had built around himself showing signs of cracks.

"I managed to cut off Black. You'll have power after at least the next two hours."Ivan furrowed his brow, his mind struggling to process the unexpected turn of events. "You did that?" he asked, flicking the light switch, only to be met with darkness."Yeah, man. Why wouldn't I help you out?" Alex retorted, his amusement evident in his voice. "Why would I be your friend if I couldn't do that?""I should have known," Ivan muttered, glancing briefly at Natalie, his voice filled with gratitude.

    The old lady chuckled. “I was so stupid! How could I not differentiate between someone with a good heart like you from those full of bad intentions? Instead of protecting him, I exposed all of us to danger. Please forgive me…”Natalie, who had never had any experience of an elderly person apologizing, did not know what she was supposed to say. She pursed her lips in fear.The old lady sighed. “I am not saying all this because you saved my life. I just think I was too blind in the past not to see the good in you. Please, take good care of my grandson, and my great grandchildren!“Natalie was just so shocked. She had not expected that things would be this easy after so much struggle. That meant that the old lady was blessing her marriage with Ivan, right?She lifted her eyes to look at Ivan, and seeing the broad smile on his face, Natalie relaxed. Everything was fine. They were finally going to be together without any difficulties.Ivan winked at her, and Natalie could not help but roll

    The doctor sighed with disappointment. “You don't know it? That thing that healed you!“ He was not sure if the girl was just pretending or she really knew nothing about it.Natalie shook her head. “Wait… I think I was wounded! What happened? What is that Gello you are talking about?“ She asked.The doctor sighed. “When you were brought here, we all thought you were going to die! You had wounds, you had lost a lot of blood and you were almost losing your child. But… that thing they gave you… it healed you in less than ten minutes…”Even though Natalie was pretending not to know anything about Gello, she was shocked to hear that she was healed like that. “Doctor, are you sure about what you are talking about?“ “Yes… it happened… He just wrapped it around your hand…” The doctor had begun speaking when the door was pulled open and two men walked in. Trevor went directly to the doctor and held his hand. “Doctor, would you mind us having a small talk?“ He asked while pulling him out, not

    Natalie froze up. She waited for the excruciating pain, then maybe, death. She had been so sure that June had shot her straight in the chest. She would be dead in just a few seconds.However, after a few seconds, nothing happened. She did not get any pain either. Confused, she opened her eyes.“Natalie…” Someone called her. All she could hear and see were the movements of people here and there.But her eyes caught one person who was running towards her direction. “Natalie… are you okay?“ Ivan asked as he pulled her into his arms.Due to the pressure he applied, Natalie winced in pain. Her body was covered in several wounds due to the torture that these people had inflicted on her. She saw June lying on the ground, her gun some distance away from her.“You are hurt! Quickly, call an ambulance!“ Ivan ordered as he tried to untie her. Trevor and a few other men were checking up on the old lady.“Ivan… you came…” Natalie said in shock. She had not expected him to be back that quickly. But

    When Black came back to the room, Natalie wanted to keep her distance from him. If this man could send his wife away without blinking, what was he not capable of?Black sighed seeing her action. “Daughter, I sent her away to make up for what we caused you to go through in the past,” he spoke up. “Please, forgive me…”Still, Natalie could not fully understand if the man had changed or he was just pretending. “Why did you bring me back?“ She asked at last. She wanted to end things as fast as possible. She wanted to go back to Ivan and Carter.Black took a seat beside her. “I heard about your break up with Ivan… that man has wronged you. I am your father. I had to come for you. I will help you carry out revenge if you want to…”Natalie pretended to be really heartbroken. “But… why are you two fighting?“ She asked. She was still mad that the man had pretended that the break up had nothing to do with him.Black was silent for a while. “ We were fighting in the past, not anymore. I won't li

    …Natalie's eyes widened when she woke up on an unfamiliar bed, her mind finally connecting the dots. The room she found herself in was lavish and spacious, a real contrast to the small, cramped space she had been forced to inhabit in the past in this house. The memories of the mistreatment she endured flooded her mind, making her feel annoyed and anger about those two people that called themselves parents.She moved, and her body ached. She could not help but wince in pain. She had expected to be taken away by Black, but the fact that they had sedated her before bringing her here spoke volumes about their intentions. It was as if they didn't even want to give her the chance to fight back or escape.Her thoughts were interrupted as the door was pushed open, and a woman around forty years old stepped inside the room. The woman's eyes widened in disbelief as they landed on Natalie, and she let out a horrified scream."Aaaah!" the woman shrieked, her hands flying to her mouth as if to st

Is he okay?" she asked, showing her compassionate nature even in her own moment of distress.Ivan scanned the crowd and locked eyes with the worried boy. He noticed the blood on the boy's hand and pursed his lips. "Someone check up on the boy," he instructed, and the people around quickly rushed to help him.Still feeling disoriented, Natalie held onto Ivan's hand. "Can you help me up?" she asked, her voice trembling slightly."Of course," Ivan replied hurriedly, carefully assisting her to her feet. He guided her away from the gathering crowd and led her towards the car, where they could have some privacy.As they distanced themselves from the scene, Ivan noticed Natalie's expression changing. Her eyes turned red, and sadness enveloped her face. He gently helped her into the car, his heart aching for her."Are you feeling hurt anywhere?
