Upon hearing what Yandel said, the four children answered in one voice, “We do!”
“We do!”
“We do!”
“We do!”
Natalie fixed her eyes on the screen. There was something heartwarming about the four adorable children—not
forgetting their chubby cheeks.
“I can tell all of you have faith in me now.” Natalie gave them a crescent moon-like shape Duchenne smile. “All of
you better obey Yandel since you're staying at his place. Don't gang up on him, okay? Perhaps, by the time you
wake up tomorrow, Yumi and I might have returned. If everything goes smoothly, we'll be able to take you home!”
Natalie's words of comfort had allayed the children's worry.
Their faces were finally wreathed in smiles. After waving Natalie goodbye, they reluctantly ended the video call.
Meanwhile, Billy and impostor Natalie, who had departed from Chanaea, were still flying in the plane heading to
Loang.
At that point, Natalie was drinking coffee on the street while wearing her hyper-realistic mask. She went deep in
thought as she was busy devising a plan.
All of a sudden, someone placed a slice of strawberries and cream cake next to her coffee.
“Hi, this is not mine. I only ordered a cup of coffee, so...” Natalie explained as she thought the waiter had made a
mistake.
When she lifted her head and noticed the man in front of her, she was at a loss for words. She did not know what
else to say.
The man sitting opposite her was wearing an exquisite white suit. He had delicate and handsome facial features
with a soft gaze. As he stood against the evening sun, his smiley eyes curved like a pair of crescent moons, making
him look innocent yet charming.
“I-It's you...” Natalie looked at him in disbelief. “How did you recognize me?”
“I've seen you wearing this mask in Chanaea. You don't remember, do you?” the man answered.
Realization dawned on Natalie. I see.
She responded calmly, “This is not mine. Please take it away.”
In other words, she was subtly asking Bastien to leave.
Bastien did not take offense in her reaction. He gazed into her eyes steadily and said, “You've suffered enough in
the last two days. Drinking coffee is just going to give you more anxiety. Perhaps, eating a dessert can make you
feel better.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNatalie's heart skipped a beat when she heard that. She blurted out, “You're stalking me?”
“I was trying to let you know I was worried about you. You can think of it that way.” Bastien leaned forward. “A
mysterious figure abducted your kid, and you were trying everything you could to rescue her. You might be able to
come up with a great plan, but don't think you can execute it better with my help?”
“You want to help me? What do you want in return?” Natalie asked while staring right into the man's eyes. Love?
People who grow up in the royal family will never sacrifice everything for love. Even if they do, it'll always be
conditional. They will never love someone at the expense of their ambition and immeasurable desire.
“What if I just want you to stay by my side?” Bastien asked a question to test the waters.
“What if I expect you to give up your inheritance rights and the privileges as a royal member in Loang and live as a
commoner?” Natalie responded with another question.
Bastien was startled for a moment as he did not expect Natalie to hurl the question at him.
A corner of Natalie's lips quirked up. I knew he couldn't answer me.
Anyway, Natalie was merely poking fun at Bastien. She had no intention of finding out how sincere he was.
“You—”
“You don't have to answer me. It was just a hypothetical question.” Natalie tilted her head and looked at him once
again. “You said you wanted to help me. So what exactly do you want from me in return?”
Bastien clenched his fists as his expression turned grim. Not only is she smart, but she's also very observant.
