Chapter 424
Stanley pressed Natalie against her shoe cab and hooked her chin up as he lowered his head to
kiss her.
Just when he was about to touch her lips, the apartment door was kicked down with a loud thud.
Stanley was taken back and turned to look in the direction of the door.
Noticing that Shane was standing outside the door, Stanley grimaced. “It''s you again! Why do you
always ruin things for me?”
Shane paid no heed to Stanley. He retracted his legs slowly and entered the house with a grim face.
The man pulled Natalie over to his side and examined her from head to toe to make sure that she was
alright.
Noticing that her clothes were still intact, the man finally heaved a sigh of relief.
However, he soon noticed that something was off with her.
Expressionless, the hollow-eyed woman looked like a soulless puppet, saying nothing.
“What did you do to her?” Shane shot Stanley a murderous gaze with a frigid tone.
Thetter seemed unfazed and broke into a cackle. “Why don''t you take a guess, genius?”
Shane''s temples tensed as his frosty gaze shot daggers at the man. He dashed over and strangled
Stanley''s neck. Tightening his grip, Shane bellowed, “I don''t have the mood to y games with you!
What the hell did you do to her?”
Stumped, Stanley had not expected the man to attack him right away, much less threatening to take his
life.
However, he soon regained hisposure and cast a nce at Natalie who was behind Shane. The
manughed hysterically and sniggered, “You can ask a million times if you want to. I''m not gonna
answer you. Just kill me.”
The crease in Shane''s brows deepened as he gauged the psycho before him. He''s a lunatic!
These lunatics are fearless. My death threat is not going to work on him.
With the thought in mind, Shane let go of the man disdainfully.
Choking, Stanley slumped to the floor as he clenched his neck and coughed violently. His veins were
popping as a result, with his face flushed beetroot from choking. The man''s sses hung on his nose
wobbly as if it was about to fall, but not quite.
Shane led Natalie who was still in a daze before Stanley and threatened, “I will not kill you, but you will
wish that you were dead instead!”
Afterward, he took out his cell phone and called Jackson.
He was on call that night. Hence, it did not take him long to answer Shane''s call. “What''s the matter?”
Shane nced at Natalie and tried his best to describe her condition to him.
Jackson''s poker face turned serious after hearing him. “From the way you describe her condition, I
think Natalie''s been hypnotized.”

“Hypnotized?” Shane narrowed his eyes.
“Correct. I can''t think of any other possible exnation for her condition.”
Shane tightened his grip on the phone and shot daggers at Stanley who was getting up by steadying
him against the shoe cab. “How do I get her to regain her consciousness?”
Jackson adjusted his sses. “That''s easy. You just have to ask the person who hypnotized her to
snap her out of it.”
“Noted.” Shane put down his phone and grabbed on Shane''s cor, dragging him before Natalie and
ordered, “Wake her up!”
Stanley grinned wickedly. “What if I say no? Look at her being all obedient and meek, at the mercy of
my every beck and call. This is what I''ve been dreaming of for the longest time!”
Shane tightened his grip around the man''s cor and spat, “So your dream is to watch her turn into a
puppet?”
“What''s wrong about that? She''s only going to have eyes for me then!” Stanley reached out and looked
at Natalie longingly, trying to touch her.
Shane''s eyes burned with fury at the sight as he pushed Stanley to one side, dragging Natalie behind
himself to protect her.
Stanley winced in frustration and raged, “What the hell are you doing? Who gave you the permission to
touch her? She''s mine! Mine!”
