Grief, Betrayals, and a Core of Blaze

Chapter 606 Never Giving Up

Jensen raised his arm, intending to slap Natalie hard, but his hand froze in mid-air. Meeting Natalie's furious, bloodshot eyes, he suddenly couldn't bring himself to hit her. "Natalie, if you just tell me the truth, I can overlook it—even if you truly did have children with the Witch Doctor. After all, you did it to save me. I understand. It was all the Witch Doctor's fault, not yours. Just don't blame me for treating you like this now, okay? I've lost everything. I can’t lose you too. You loved me so much once. If you just forget the pain I caused you, we can be together lovingly, just like five years ago. Believe me, I will be good to you." "Hahahaha!" Natalie suddenly burst into laughter, tears streaming from her eyes, yet the coldness in her gaze grew even more pronounced. "Be good to me? You call this being good to me? You wanted to hit me, didn’t you? Go on, hit me!" Natalie’s voice suddenly turned sharp and biting, startling Jensen into immediately releasing her, leaving him utterly flustered. "Natalie, don’t be like this. Once the medicine takes effect, I truly will be good to you." Jensen was now only praying that the amnesia drug would work as soon as possible. Loretta, seeing Natalie treat Jensen this way while Jensen couldn't bear to strike her, was enraged. She stepped forward and slapped Natalie across the face. "Slut! How dare you speak to my son like that? I'm telling you, once you lose your memory, the only person you can rely on will be my son. You’d better show him some respect from now on!" "Mom—" Seeing Loretta strike Natalie, Jensen quickly stopped her."What are you doing?" He turned to look at Natalie's face, but Natalie violently pulled away from him. "Get lost! Don’t touch me!" Natalie’s voice was sharp and stern, but inside, she was frantic. Is this terrible amnesia drug actually going to work? Am I really going to forget Baron and the others? She had once thought she was with Baron only out of gratitude, but now that she faced the prospect of completely forgetting him, she realized how many memories they had shared. And she desperately, desperately did not want to forget Baron. I realized I’ve had Baron in my heart for a long time, and he fills it completely. When will he discover I'm missing? Will he be able to find me? Natalie was consumed by worry. If she was truly destined to lose her memory and forget everyone, she hoped to see Baron one last time before it happened. She needed to tell Baron face-to-face that she loved him! That marrying him wasn't an act of repayment, but genuine love! Natalie struggled to sit up, but whether it was the drug taking effect or not, she felt surprisingly weak. Jensen, seeing her still determined to escape, felt his eyes turn red. He fiercely wrapped his arms around Natalie, saying viciously, "You’re still trying to run when you’re like this? Natalie, I love you so much. If you just stay with me, we’ll be together forever, won't we?"He then lunged forward, pressing his mouth against Natalie’s cherry lips. "Let go of me! Let go!" Now that Natalie was certain of her feelings for Baron, she naturally did not want any physical contact with Jensen, much less be assaulted by him. Loretta, seeing Natalie's fierce resistance and realizing Jensen couldn't subdue her immediately, stepped forward and directly grabbed Natalie’s legs, angrily saying, "Jensen, forget being gentle! This woman is a tramp! Once you’ve taken her, she’ll have no choice but to obey! Besides, the amnesia drug is working. By the time you’re done with her, the drug will probably have fully kicked in. I’m helping you here. Just take her!" Natalie’s eyes widened in horror. "Loretta, you're a daughter of a prestigious family! You’re helping your son commit assault? Are you even human?" Natalie struggled with all her might but couldn't break free. She was utterly despairing. "Baron! Baron!" In her desperation, Natalie cried out Baron’s name repeatedly, a sound that profoundly provoked Jensen. "Don’t call him! Don’t call his name!" Jensen smacked Natalie hard across the face. Natalie saw stars and her face burned, but she seemed to throw caution to the wind, laughing even as she spoke: "I will call him! My husband is Baron! Baron is the best man in the world! He is a thousand, ten thousand times better than you! Whether in status, character, or business, you aren't even worthy to polish his shoes! I love Baron! Jensen! Even if you gave me an amnesia drug, even if I forget him, I still want to tell you that I, Natalie, deeply love Baron! I will be his wife, Baron’s wife, for this entire lifetime!""Shut up! Shut up!"
