    “That’s good to hear.” From Joseph’s tone, one could tell that he was relieved. “When you disappeared


    after we got the news that the underground base of ze in Dellmoor had been blown up, Mr. Nine


    thought you had sacrificed yourself.”


    “I’m fine… but not really. I’m severely wounded. The estimated time that I would need to recover is


    more than half a month.”


    Even though Benjamin had not conversed with a doctor about his condition, he could feel several


    fractures in different parts of his body.


    With his worries gone, Joseph replied excitedly, “Rest well. You deserve huge credit for blowing up


    ze’s underground base. I will suggest to Mr. Nine to reward you once you return to Loang.”


    “Joseph, it wasn’t me who blew up ze’s underground base.”


    “Eh?” Joseph was taken aback. “If it wasn’t you, who did it?”


    “A woman.”


    Benjamin remembered very clearly the image of Natalie pressing down on a button before the


    explosion.


    If she had not prepared the explosives beforehand, he would have died under Gale’s firearm that day.


    “Someone from Loang?” Joseph asked tentatively.


    “No, someone from Chanaea.” After a few seconds of pondering, Benjamin settled on a description of


    Natalie. “A very unique yet brilliant woman.”


    “What’s her name?”


    “N—”


    Before Benjamin could reveal Natalie’s name, the footsteps of the doctors doing rounds came from the


    door.


    Afraid that his identity would be revealed, Benjamin swiftly hung up with a quick “talk to youter.”


    Meanwhile, far away in a majestic pce in Loang, Joseph recounted the phone call to Bastien as the


    latter was working on a scale model.


    Bastien was about to nt a small g onto the model when Joseph reached the part where a woman


    was the one responsible for the explosion. His movements obviously slowed as he blinked in surprise.


    “Benjamin said it was a woman who blew up the underground base of ze?”


    “That’s correct.” Joseph nodded confidently.


    “Unbelievable,”mented Bastien.


    Yet, at the same time, an image of a woman floated to the back of his mind. It was someone he had


    crossed paths with during his time in Chanaea.


    Due to some changes in the political scene of Loang, Bastien had no choice but to leave Chanaea.


    Because of that, he had lost contact with the woman.


    If it was possible, Bastien would want to see the sly woman again.


    Naturally, Natalie was oblivious to all of that.


    She was busy doing what she had promised Samuel—eating well and resting.


    On the other hand, Samuel waspletely rid of the poison, so he moved all his work to the hospital


    ward. That way, he could apany Natalie while he worked.


    During that period of time, Luna came and visited Samuel.


    Whenever she visited, Steven would magically appear just on time.


    Being people with sharp minds, it took Samuel and Natalie no time to figure out Steven’s true intentions


    for showing up.


    After checking Samuel’s pulse, Luna announced, “There shouldn’t be anything wrong with your health


    anymore, Mr. Samuel. You should be fully recovered after a few more days of rest. I would then


    formally bid old Mr. Bowers farewell and depart for Greenview.”


    Samuel hummed in acknowledgment before turning to Steven. “I want to stay with Nat. Steven, help


    me send Luna off.”


    “On it, Sam.”


    Steven nodded profusely.


    After Steven left to catch up to Luna, Samuel continued to peel an orange for Natalie.


    The peeled orange was round and juicy. Removing a wedge, Samuel fed it to Natalie.


    Natalie chewed absent-mindedly before asking the question that had been haunting her for a while.


    “Tell me the truth. Between you and Ms. Garcia, is there a betrothal of a sort?”


    Samuel plucked off another wedge from the orange. “Yep.”


    “There really is a betrothal?” Natalie was shocked by his answer and began to stammer, “T-Then…


    you… she… Are you not going to take responsibility for her?”


    “It’s just a betrothal. I doubt it’s anything serious. It was just a casual proposal made by our


    grandfathers after they had a couple of drinks.”


    “But it’s still a betrothal.” Remembering Luna’s raised guard around herself, Natalie suddenly


    understood the reason behind her reaction. “That’s not really fair to Ms. Garcia, is it? Perhaps she has


    been waiting to marry you, only to find out I have been dating you.”
