Chapter 218


    Be Full Of Myself Unexpectedly, several people blocked Desmond’s path the instant he whirled


    around. Desmond was promptly taken aback. What’s happening here? He turned back and pinned his


    eyes on the man. “What’s the meaning of this?” The man kept silent, a sh of helplessness flitting


    across his eyes. Right then, a few men in police uniforms appeared behind him and cuffed him.


    Subsequently, Zeke and Natasha walked out. As soon as Desmond caught sight of them,


    understanding dawned upon him. Without dy, he made a run for it. s, he was pinned to the


    ground before he could get far. He struggled wildly. “Let go of me! What are the lot of you trying to do?


    What right do you have to arrest me?


    Let me go!” Right that moment, Zeke walked up and stared down at him. “Desmond Lynch, you’re


    suspected of hiring a hitman to murder someone. We have the proof and witness, so please follow us


    back to assist in the investigation.” “I don’t know what you’re saying! Why are you using me of


    engaging the services of a hitman when I merely came to give him money? What proof do you have?


    Let go of me! Let go! Believe it when I say that I’ll sue you!” Even then, Desmond continued resisting


    obstinately. At that exact moment, Natasha sauntered over and crouched on the ground to gaze at him


    indifferently. “Mr. Lynch, I have a piece of news to tell you.” Desmond said nothing, shooting daggers at


    her. “Not only is Erin still alive, but she has even regained consciousness,” Natasha dered mildly.


    Desmond’s face abruptly crumpled. Words eluded him. “Before there was any definite news, you


    already told the journalists that Erin had died, sparking public criticism. Do you think everyone is a


    fool?” Natasha queried. Desmond remained silent, his eyes fixated on her. “It was you? You were the


    one who set a trap for me?” “It’s true that I set a trap for you, but wasn’t it your choice whether to fall


    into the trap?” “How dare you!” “Mr. Lynch, the truth will alwayse to light,” Natasha enunciated.


    Desmond looked into her eyes, gripped by the urge to rip her into a thousand pieces. “It was you! You


    sabotaged me! It was all you!” he screeched out of the blue. He struggled hard to break free and


    charge at her. “Stay still!” The police officer held him down mercilessly. Right then, Zeke came over. “All


    right, take him away. We’ll interrogate him at the police station.” A few police officers in in clothes


    seized Desmond and dragged him out. As Natasha watched the man being led away, there wasn’t a


    hint of pity in her eyes. Some people ultimately give up thest shred of affection for the sake of their


    personal interests. Are they pitiful or pathetic? Zeke turned to look at Natasha as they walked out.


    “Thank you for your assistance this time, Ms. Watson. I’m really grateful.”


    With her face devoid of expression, Natasha inquired bluntly, “Now that the investigation has


    concluded, justice will be served to Hamilton Corporation, yes?” At the mention of that, Zeke chortled.


    “So, you did all this for Keh’s sake?” Natasha’s gaze darkened a shade. “Everything happened


    because of me, and I was also the reason Hamilton Corporation was dragged into this mess. Thus, I


    can’t deny my responsibility in this matter!” As Zeke listened, he nodded smilingly. Well, well, well…


    Young people like to say one thing when they mean the other. “It looks like Keh made the right


    choice,” Zekemented. Natasha frowned, but the man continued, “Don’t worry. When the


    investigation wraps up, the investigative result will be announced. At that time, the truth wille to


    light.” Only after hearing that did Natasha nod in acknowledgment. “Okay.” Right then, a ck car sped


    over. It drove all the way to them before stopping in front of them. Then, Keh got out of the car.


    When Natasha saw him, her brows creased. Contrarily, a faint smile remained on Zeke’s face. “You


    came pretty quickly.” The moment Keh spotted Natasha, he mmed the car door shut. He


    proceeded to stride over to her, his brows scrunched together deeply. Throughout it all, he appeared


    rather anxious. “Are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?” he asked. His eyes roamed all over her body


    to ascertain that she didn’t sustain any injuries. Natasha didn’t bother about that. Instead, she


    questioned, “How did you know that I was here?”


    Just then, Zeke interjected from the side, “Oh, I was the one who told him. Before this operation, he


    gave me a call. After mulling it over, I thought I should tell him about this matter. Unexpectedly, he


    arrived in such a short time!” At those words, Keh swung his gaze at the man. “Mr. Zeller, if


    anything had happened to Nat, I would never have let you off the hook!” That was a half-truth, but itPlease check at N/?vel(D)rama.Org.


    didn’t sound like a joke. “Did you hear that? This brat even wants to settle the score with me!” Zeke


    teased Natasha, smirking. Then, he turned to Keh. “I don’t know what good deeds you’ve done in


    your previous life that you’re so blessed in this life. You’re evenining here after benefiting from


    the matter. Fine, fine. I’m handing her back to you without a scratch. Don’t me me anymore!” Seeing


    that Natasha was fine, Keh breathed a sigh of relief. Only God knew how he had made it there


    without running into an ident. “All right, I’ll leave you two to talk. I’ve still got something to do at the


    police station, so I’ll be leaving first.”


    After saying that, Zeke straightened his clothes and left. When he was gone, Keh’s gaze alighted


    on Natasha. His ebony eyes were unfathomable, and he stared at her lovingly. “I—” Before Natasha


    could even speak, Keh pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly. At once, Natasha was


    startled. “Promise me to never do such a thing again in the future. It’s exceedingly dangerous.


    Compared to you, everything is insignificant!” Keh asserted in a low voice that was also a touch


    hoarse. “Actually… it wasn’t that dangerous,” Natasha protested. Only then did Keh drop his hold


    on her. “You know that a person would do anything when backed into a corner. Weren’t you afraid that


    Desmond would do something to you?” “But he might not necessarily be my match.” “Were you hoping


    that he’d y by the rules with you?” Keh queried. Natasha pursed her lips, her brows knitting


    together. “ording to my n, there shouldn’t be any incidents.” Looking at her, Keh sighed in


    exasperation. “Incidents are something you can never predict.” Indeed, Natasha couldn’t deny that.


    Keh continued gazing at her with undercurrents in his eyes.


    “Fortunately, nothing happened to you.” His voice was hoarse. The emotion he expressed was too


    straightforward and intense that Natasha didn’t know what to say. Keh suddenly drew close to her,


    his low voice rising imperceptibly. “Also, weren’t you afraid I’d be full of myself when you did all


    this for me?” Be full of himself? Natasha eyed him in puzzlement. “Do you love me now, Nat?”


    Keh asked with his eyes radiating intense hope. Otherwise, why would she take such a risk for me


    and do such a thing? His gaze was so intense that it could seemingly scorch someone. At a loss for


    words, Natasha instinctively averted her gaze. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.” “You do,”


    Keh maintained. The look in his eyes as he stared at her seemingly allowed her no escape.
