    Chapter 88


    “Already asked around. None of the nearby cities have it!” Uriah murmured back, “But don’t worry. Mr.


    King’s injuries are under control. A few days‘ dy won’t matter. And it’s not like we’repletely out


    of meds. I’ll handle it. Just take care of your stuff.


    Natalie hung up the call and returned to the Prestige Penthouses, where she reached out to a few


    contacts and doctors she knew at Bluestar.


    Their response was unanimous. After checking, they found their supplies were critically low, and even if


    they had stock, the specific medication she needed wasn’t avable for private sale. It could only be


    used after coordination between hospitals.


    Despite scouring herwork, Natalie came up empty–handed. She slumped onto the couch. and her


    mind raced with suspicion. However rare the medication was, it was unlikely to run out overnight.


    Then it hit her. Brian had also been to Bluestar. She hastily pulled out her cell phone and dialed Brian’s


    number. It took three attempts before he finally picked up.


    “Brian, did you do this?” she frowned and asked in a deep voice before Brian could speak. After a


    pause, a light chuckle came through the line. “What if I did?”


    “People’s lives are at stake! Can you please stop joking around?” Natalie snapped.


    “Do you think I’m joking?” Brian’s response was calm and cold.


    Natalie was shocked. Before she could reply, Brian continued, “I wonder if you would still marry Ken


    if he became a vegetable.”


    “You’re despicable!” Natalie’s voice grew louder, unable to hold back her rage. But before she could


    say more, the line went dead with the sound of the call being disconnected.


    When she tried calling back, Brian’s phone was already off.


    Without hesitation, Natalie returned to her car and sped to Majestic Meadows Manor. But this time,

    Brian didn’t give her the chance to knock. His bodyguards stood like a fortress, blocking the entrance,


    refusing her entry.


    “Brian, this has nothing to do with Ken! It’s all my fault!” she pleaded, staring at the lit window, teeth


    clenched in desperation.


    Inside, Madelyn nced at the man standing before the window, his expression stormy as night. A


    flicker of scorn crossed her eyes.


    The more Natalie begged for Ken, the angrier Brian became.


    If she were in Brian’s shoes, having the woman he loved not only abandon their son and him but also


    n to marry some obscure everyman, causing chaos upon her return, she’d be livid to madness.


    Chapt


    The thought of a golden bachelor like Brian, who ruled Streamville with an fron list and was worth


    billions, being bested by a mereputer salesman was, frankly,ughable.


    Yet, the fact that Brian was still watching Natalle below meant there was a sliver of mercy in his heart.


    After a moment’s thought, Madelyn stood and walked behind Brian, ncing down at Natalie before


    speaking softly, “Brian, is there a need to be so cruel? After all, it’s a life at stake,”


    “And Natalie… She must be frantic to have lost herposure, Ken must have done her some favor.


    Maybe you could just…”


    “Have someone take her back to the Film Studio,” Brian cut her off, his voice icy. Without giving Natalie


    another look, he turned and marched back to his room, closing the door behind him with a resounding


    m.


    Madelyn stayed by the window, her gaze lingering on Natalle outside.


    Hearing Reid’s footsteps approaching, she turned, and their eyes met. With a drawl, she ryed,


    “Didn’t you hear? Bn said to take her back to the set.“
