Chapter 450
After entering the room, Natasha took off her shoes at the doorway and walked inside.
She sat on the chair with her slender legs crossed. With one hand supporting her chin, she gazed
outside while wearing a tight frown, seemingly in deep thought.
A few momentster, she regained her senses and shifted her eyes to the newly purchased items on
the table. She got to her feet, took out a can of drink from the grocery bag, and narrowed her eyes at
the name on the can. Hopefully, they will see this.
With that thought in her mind, Natasha opened the can and poured the drink into the pond before
throwing the empty can into the rubbish bin.
She then casually tied her hair into a bun and went into the bathroom.
When she exited the bathroom half an hourter, she had changed into a morefortable casual
sports attire with her hair hanging freely on her back. Despite being a mother of three children, she had
the appearance of a pure and innocent maiden with a hint of maturitycing her beauty.
She had wanted to take a shower, but she went downstairs in search of food instead, as she suddenly
felt a little hungry.
When she descended to the first floor of the hotel, she ordered some food and sat at a table next to the
window to enjoy her meal.
At that moment, amotion erupted behind her.
She turned her head around and saw a knife-wielding man dressed in the hotel employee''s uniform
chasing after Boss.
She raised her eyebrows slightly in surprise.
What is this? An assassination?
Natasha continued to enjoy her food unperturbedly. She did not show any inclination to call anyone to
help Boss and merely resumed eating while watching the scene.
The two men fought in the corridor. When Boss noticed Natasha and how she looked at them in
amusement, he knitted his brows. As he was distracted, his opponent managed to take the opportunity
of the split second to stab a knife into his chest.
“Argh!” Boss returned to his senses and furrowed his brows at the sight of the knife protruding from his
chest.
Even though he was infuriated, there was nothing he could do because he was at a disadvantage.
However, just as the killer was about to end Boss'' life with a final hit, Boss struggled mightily until his
face turned crimson.
Natasha could have rescued Boss if she had provided him with the slightest assistance. Still, she
remained an observer and ate her meal in a rxed manner, showing no desire to lend a helping hand.
Instead, the amused look in her eyes intensified.
Inexplicableplex emotions glinted in Boss'' eyes as he gave her the side-eye.
In the end, Boss was gradually overwhelmed in the brawl as his muscles grew weaker. Just as the
assassin was about to stab the knife into Boss'' eyes, a loud bang sounded. The man threatening to
end Boss'' life froze with his widened eyes fixating on Boss.
Bang! Bang!
Two more gunshots rang out. Blood gushed out from the killer''s mouth as his grip around the knife
slowly ckened. He ultimately fell to the floor with his eyes still open as he expired in reluctance.
Someone jogged over a few secondster. “Boss, how are you? Are you all right?”
Boss did not respond, seemingly used to experiencing such situations. He stared at the man on the
floor and said, “Get rid of him.”
“Got it.”
Boss applied pressure on the wound on his chest, but blood continued to pour out continuously.
His subordinates hurried over. “Boss, are you hurt?”
“I''m fine.”
“I''ll get the doctor right away!” One of his subordinates immediately left after saying that.
Boss stood rooted to his spot with his gaze fixated on Natasha, who was sitting nearby and enjoying
her meal calmly with a hint of disdain and mockery on her face.
He strode up to her, sat down, and asked, while staring at her food, “So, how''s the food?”
Natasha nodded. “It''s not bad.”
“What about the show earlier? Was it entertaining?”
“It was a little boring.”
“Boring?”
“The ending is predictable, just like all the shows on television.” Natasha shook her head regretfully.
Boss sat in front of her with blood trickling down her chest and colors draining from his face with every
passing second. Yet, when he heard her words, he chuckled. “You seem disappointed with the
oue?”
“Really?” Natasha smiled at him. “I''m still counting on you on the search, so I''ll never harbor that kind of
thought.”
“Oh? Then why didn''t you help me just now?”
“Me? Help?”
Boss stared at her in silence.
“Shouldn''t I allow you to handle a matter between men on your own? If I had assisted you, how
embarrassed would you have looked in front of others?”
“Then should I be thanking you instead?”
“You don''t have to thank me. I didn''t do anything anyway.” Natasha consumed her food nonchntly,
seemingly indulging the moment as if everything that had happened earlier was no different from
watching a movie.
Boss gazed at her. If I had not known her better after a few days of interacting with her, I would have
had the urge to kill her.
However, at that instant, not only was he not angered, but he was experiencing an inexplicable feeling.
Boss felt that anyone who saw Natasha''s slightly contemptuous and teasing look at that moment would

more or less yearn to figure out what was going on in her mind.
This woman is different from all the other women I''ve met. She has a conflicting personality of being
simultaneously humble and arrogant. She may appear carefree, but she has an unyielding side,
disallowing anyone to control or restrain her.
Boss suddenly curled his lips into a smile while looking at her.
Natasha stared at him. “Why are you smiling?”
“I suddenly understand now why J is so madly in love with you. You are indeed a very memorable
woman.”
Natasha was momentarily stunned by the mention of Keh.
She narrowed her eyes at him. “What do you mean?”
“It''s nothing. I''m just sharing with you my newfound rity,” Boss teased her.
Natasha looked at him, unconvinced that he would talk about Keh for no reason.
As her mind raced, Boss piped up, “What''s the matter? Don''t tell me you don''t know. J is currently in
Spaunia too!”
Natasha gazed at him in bewilderment.
Boss added, “Moreover, he''s here because of you.”
Her eyes gradually turned frosty, but she quickly recollected herself after she was reminded of
something. “Really?”
“Why? You don''t believe me?”
Natasha took a sip of her wine and shut her eyes. “I don''t doubt you. I just did not anticipate he would
one day end up in this situation too.”
Boss narrowed his eyes at her. “What do you mean?”
