Who's the Substitute Now? Chapter 415
Kneeling in the car, Natalie endured the bumpy ride to an abandoned factory with tin sheets patched over its rusting roof. Beyond it was a filthy, smelly creek that looked as if it held all of Oceanville's trash.Even with the hood up, Natalie still smelled the strong stench even before she got out of the car. It was so unpleasant that she made a face of disgust.Suddenly, dark thoughts entered her mind. She wondered if these people intended to kill and bury her.Shaking uncontrollably, she stuttered uselessly into the gag, "Please, don't…"Justin gave her an impatient look and kicked her. "Why are you trembling? Where was all that courage when you were cursing earlier?"Natalie was kicked out of the car. She fell to the ground, and her face scraped against the rough stones. She couldn't tell if it was real, but she felt blood on her face.Fearing the stones would mar her face, she ignored the pain and scrambled to her feet.Justin didn't spare Natalie just because she was a wom

The other men began laughing.Natalie cried even harder. Despair filled her eyes as she thought that Joshua might be so captivated by Natasha that he wouldn't bother to save her even if she were to die.Yakov came to Natalie's mind later. She had a feeling that his men had already captured Natasha.Suddenly, there was an echo of footsteps."Why's she crying?" Justin asked. He entered with a cigarette in his mouth."She's too sensitive. We barely touched her, and she was in tears," someone quipped.Natalie looked up in sadness and was surprised to see that the man standing before her was, in fact, Yakov's man, Justin.She struggled to make a protest, to tell Justin that he was mistaking her for Natasha. Yet, her voice was muffled because her mouth was gagged.Justin picked at his ear in impatience. One man gave Natalie a swift slap and warned, "Shut up! Be quiet!"Natalie was still on her knees. Her face instantly showed the red mark from the slap.Justin stared at her blankly

Natalie looked down at her legs, which were covered in deep red blood that continued to ooze from her wounds. She couldn't believe what was happening.Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through her like nothing she'd ever felt before. She had never known such agony growing up in comfort and protection.Tears poured down her face as she screamed desperately, but her pleas were drowned out by the gag.Justin's smile seemed to widen the more she cried. It was clear that humiliating her was giving him a great deal of pleasure.The men's laughter filled the air as someone said, "Boss, that must've felt good!"Justin smirked. He lit another cigarette and approached Natalie with a wicked smile. Shrouded in smoke, he looked like a demon from hell.Natalie trembled at the sight and was desperate to escape. She clumsily tried to back away despite the pain that shot through her legs.Yet, Justin grabbed her injured legs and dragged her back mercilessly. Blood ran in a perfect arc down her legs.

Natalie found herself on the chopping block as she waited for Justin's men to decide her fate."Who wants to go first?" yelled a muscular man."I'll do it! I'll do it!" several voices joined in.Lying still on the ground, Natalie seemed lifeless. Only her tears reminded her that she was still alive. She could no longer escape. She began to feel numb from the pain of the first two attacks.Natalie watched as the steel bar was lifted again. Just as she expected another wave of pain, she heard a commotion."Boss, we've got trouble! Someone's attacking us!"Natalie turned to see a dozen serious-looking armed guards charging in."Where'd they come from?"Justin's men were no pushovers. They immediately engaged in combat when they saw intruders in their territory.Both sides were highly trained professionals who showed agility and dexterity. The scene resembled a fight scene out of an action movie.The unexpected turn of events took Natalie by surprise. After a while, it became cle

When Justin noticed Natalie stumbling toward the car, he struggled to get through the crowd of bodyguards surrounding him to reach her. He knew he'd have a hard time explaining to Yakov if she got away.Yet, Justin couldn't free himself from the bodyguards no matter how hard he tried. The bodyguards weren't being rough but were just slowing him down.The young woman in the car, Carly Turner, felt compelled to help when she saw how badly Natalie's legs were bleeding. When Natalie was about 60 feet away from the car, Carly decided to step in and help."Ms. Turner, it's too dangerous out there. You shouldn't go," a bodyguard warned as Carly tried to leave the car."But she's badly injured," Carly explained worriedly. She wished she could get Natalie into the car immediately."She'll make it. Please, stay in the car.""But her legs hurt, and she's bleeding badly. She can't move fast," Carly insisted. She was determined to get out of the car."You're risking enough coming here to hel

Randy thought Natalie had only herself to blame for her pitiful state. He felt that Carly was just too innocent and kindhearted."Mr. Randy, if you're not going, I'm going on my own," Carly said as she reached for the car door handle.Randy quickly stopped her. With a sigh, he replied, "Fine, I'll go. You stay here."As the Turners' heiress, Carly had enough influence that Randy had no choice but to comply.He got out of the car to give Natalie a hand. When he noticed her speech was muffled due to the gag, he quickly removed the towel from her mouth.Natalie felt a rush of relief as the gag came off after what seemed like an eternity. The tension in her jaw began to ease. She quickly expressed her gratitude before being led to the car.It was only then that Natalie had a clear view of Carly's face and realized that she was remarkably beautiful. Carly had thick, silky hair, fair skin, enchanting eyes, and a seductive pair of lips.As Randy returned to the car, he heard Carly urge

Joshua was left alone after Terry drove off. He waited a long time until the people before him finally finished their consultations.Daniel sat wearily in his chair. He had seen a lot of patients today and had even missed his lunch break."Dr. Sullivan," Joshua greeted politely.Realizing there was another patient, Daniel immediately sat up and said, "Hi there, could you give me a brief description of your symptoms, please?"Yet, his face immediately turned sour when he realized it was Joshua.He turned to Natasha and wondered silently how she could have brought Joshua here. She was well aware that he didn't want to see Joshua.Besides, this medical consultation event had nothing to do with the Graysons.Natasha shook her head at Daniel, indicating that it hadn't been her idea for Joshua to be there.Joshua noticed the strange look on Daniel's face and called out, "Dr. Sullivan?"Daniel shifted his gaze to Joshua and asked, sounding annoyed, "What brings you here? Are you unwe
Who's the Substitute Now? Chapter 422
Even though the people in line saw Joshua dressed like a rich man, they didn't know who he was, so they weren't afraid of him. All they wanted to do was see the doctor as soon as possible.Their muttering made the atmosphere somewhat unpleasant. Joshua had never experienced such rejection, let alone a group of people telling him to leave.Natasha heard the commotion and turned to see Joshua getting cold-shouldered by everyone.Seeing that he seemed unsure of what to do, she couldn't help but smirk. She didn't plan on helping to sort it out. Instead, she just sat back and enjoyed the show.The grumbling continued, and Joshua was getting annoyed. Yet, he had to swallow his pride because he needed Daniel's help. A single line from Daniel might save Philip.After some inner struggle, Joshua said, "Fine."Natasha grinned as she watched him leave the crowd.Just then, Terry rushed over to Joshua as he exclaimed, "Mr. Grayson, the food's here!"A stretch limousine pulled up behind him
