HereSelf 502 Summary In this chapter, Flynn fiercely protects his sister Ruby from Jensen, warning him not to bother her again. As Flynn escorts Ruby to the car, Baron notices a shadowy figure disappearing into the crowd, hinting at unseen threats. Jensen, humiliated and angry after Ruby slaps him, wants to confront them but is restrained by Hansel, who reminds him that causing a scene would only worsen matters, especially with Mrs. Stone still unwell. Baron orders an investigation into a fire at the Stone family home and ensures Ruby and the others are safely inside his impressive villa.
Ruby expresses her hope that Baron's newfound wealth and influence will allow him to surpass the Gunn family and provide a peaceful life for Natalie and their children. Baron reassures her that he intends to protect his family from any old grudges and is already planning a significant transformation to secure their future. Natalie quietly listens to the conversation and advises Baron not to change his plans solely based on her mother's wishes, recognizing the challenges ahead. Baron affirms his determination and shares a tender moment with Natalie.
When Westin arrives, Baron instructs him to care for their injured daughter and son, emphasizing the need for gentleness. Inside the villa, a sense of safety settles over the group. Baron reveals he has hidden a crucial disc in Jensen's pocket to avoid detection, but has already sent someone to retrieve it. Just then, a man named Alpha arrives, reporting that the item has been secured. Alpha's unassuming appearance contrasts with his role as a secret protector, surprising Natalie and the others who have never met him before.
Continue Regular Chapter Reading Below Chapter 502: The Transformation Flynn swiftly moved behind Ruby, lifting her up protectively, but his gaze remained locked on Jensen. His voice was low and threatening as he spoke, "If I ever catch you bothering my sister again, I swear I'll break your legs. Don't test me if you don't believe it." With that, Flynn guided Ruby into the waiting car. No one noticed that as Baron climbed in, his eyes flicked toward a certain direction. In the crowd nearby, a shadowy figure melted away quickly, vanishing without a trace.
Jensen's cheeks burned from the two sharp slaps Ruby had delivered. His instinct was to rush after them, to confront and chase them down, but Hansel stepped in firmly. "Mr. Jensen, now's not the time to cause a scene," Hansel cautioned quietly. "Mrs. Stone is still unwell, and if you upset her further, Miss Natalie will be even less likely to forgive you." Jensen's frustration boiled over. "But what right does that Baron have to be with Natalie?" he demanded, feeling wounded and betrayed. All of Natalie's past affections had been his-reserved solely for him.
Yet now, she was with Baron, and it stung deeply. Hansel's lips twitched in a faint, knowing smile. Baron was legally Miss Natalie's husband. Who was Jensen to claim any right over her? Still, Hansel wisely kept his thoughts to himself in Jensen's presence. Reluctantly, Jensen let Hansel pull him away. He climbed into a car, his spirit crushed and heavy with disappointment. "Find someone to investigate the fire at the Stone family home," Baron ordered quietly. "Yes, sir," Hansel replied immediately, moving to carry out the command.

Baron then made sure Ruby and the others were safely settled in the vehicle before driving swiftly toward his villa. Ruby's eyes swept over the grand residence as they approached. It was no less impressive than the Stone family's ancestral home, and it made her reconsider her opinion of Baron. "Baron," she began thoughtfully, "with what you have now, surely surpassing the Gunn family is within your reach, isn't it?" Baron understood her meaning perfectly and responded without hesitation. "Mom, even though my last name is Gunn, I have no intention of returning to that family in this lifetime.
As long as they don't provoke me directly, I won't bother with them. Rest assured, with my current wealth, supporting my wife and children is no problem at all. I won't let them get dragged into the Gunn family's grudges." "That's good to hear." Ruby nodded, a satisfied smile on her lips. "Natalie's life has been so difficult. Now that she's finally with you and has experienced some peace, I don't want her to be pulled back into the struggles of elite families. Flynn told me your influence overseas is strong, but if you get the chance, consider changing your status.
It's not right for your wife and kids to live in constant worry." Baron had already been contemplating this very idea, and hearing Ruby's encouragement only strengthened his resolve. He nodded firmly. "Yes, I've already begun preparations for the transformation. Mom, don't worry-I won't let my wife and children live in fear while I'm around." "You're a good son," Ruby said warmly before stepping inside the villa. Natalie had been quietly listening to their conversation all along, saying nothing. Once Ruby and Flynn had gone indoors, Natalie turned to Baron softly.
"Baron, I know my mother cares about me deeply, but you don't have to change your plans just because of what she says. It wasn't easy for you to get to where you are now, and you have so many people depending on you. A transformation won't be simple. You should decide what's best for you." Baron smiled gently. "I understand. Don't worry about me-I know what's right." Seizing the moment, he leaned in and kissed Natalie, causing a faint blush to color her cheeks. Just then, Westin appeared, noticing Baron's return and hurrying over to greet him. Baron pointed toward the car.
"Yvonne is injured and still inside. Take two people and carry my daughter and son to their bedroom. The little ones are asleep, so be gentle." "Yes, Mr. Baron," Westin replied promptly, moving to follow the instructions. Once Baron and Natalie stepped inside, a collective sense of relief settled over everyone present. Perhaps it was because of Baron's status, but this place felt like the safest refuge they had. Flynn glanced around the villa, and Baron immediately caught his meaning. With a wave of his hand, Baron signaled Westin to lead the others away.
Baron then instructed for food and drinks to be prepared, before explaining, "The disc isn't with me right now. I was worried someone might search us on the way out, so I slipped it into Jensen's pocket during the scuffle. After all, Jensen appears to outsiders as having little connection to our family." Flynn blinked in surprise. "What if Jensen finds it?" "I've already sent someone to retrieve it," Baron assured him. "Don't worry, they should be back any moment." No sooner had he finished speaking than the sound of a car engine echoed outside. "Mr.
Baron, Alpha has returned," Westin announced as a man dressed in black entered the room. "Mr. Baron, the item has been secured," Alpha reported. Alpha was a man whose unremarkable appearance made him easy to overlook in a crowd. His ordinary face belied the fact that he was a shadowy protector. Natalie and the others had never met Alpha before, so his sudden presence caught them slightly off guard.
Conclusion The chapter closes with a profound sense of protection and resolve enveloping the characters, especially Baron's steadfast commitment to safeguarding his family from the shadows of their past. Despite the lingering tensions and unspoken wounds, there is a quiet strength in their unity, a promise of peace and security that Baron is determined to uphold. The emotional weight carried by each character finds a moment of reprieve within the sanctuary of the villa, symbolizing a fragile but hopeful transformation in their lives.
Emotionally, the chapter may explore the delicate balance between protection and vulnerability within the family. Baron's determination to shield Natalie and their children from old grudges hints at internal conflicts that could test their bonds. Meanwhile, Jensen's simmering resentment and the shadowy figure who vanished earlier suggest that not everyone is ready to accept the new order, setting the stage for confrontations that will challenge loyalties and resolve.
