When She Rose From The Ashes Novel

Chapter 69 The Poison Within Chapter 69 The Poison Within It was him. He was kissing her? +20 Free Coins Natalie wasn't unaware of how terrifying she looked now. How could Baron bring himself to kiss her like this? She didn't know why, but a sharp ache bloomed in her chest. She suddenly felt a heavy, swelling sensation-like she was about to cry. She knew Baron cared for her. But she also knew not everyone in this place shared his feelings. Even though she had been unconscious for most of the poisoning, she wasn't entirely unaware.

And now she was terrified-terrified Baron might do something reckless because of what happened to her. She wanted to wake up, to stop him, but her body wouldn't allow it. Why was she so useless? For the first time, Natalie had the thought... Maybe it would be better if I just died here. A single tear slid from the corner of her eye, streaking across her burned skin-bringing with it another wave of pain. Baron saw it just after delivering the antidote. That single tear twisted something in his chest. He couldn't even wipe it away with his hands. 'Natalie, stay alive. You still owe me.

No matter what happens, I'm here. Trust me-everything will be okay." His voice was low and hoarse. It was clear he was barely holding it together. Natalie wanted to answer, wanted to speak, but a wave of dizziness swept over her and dragged her back into unconsciousness. Baron immediately ran a check. The toxin levels in her blood were finally decreasing, and he exhaled in relief. There could be no more delay on her skin graft surgery. But first, he had to treat her right hand. His gaze darkened as it landed on the mangled limb. Without hesitation, he began working.

1/3 1:04 pm S Chapter 69 The Poison Within Baron immersed himself in saving her, completely unaware of the time passing. Outside, Finn and Shauna were growing restless. "Shauna... it's been over ten hours. Shouldn't we bring him something to eat?" Shauna shot him a glare. "Go ahead, if you want to die. Just don't take me with you." Finn shrank back instinctively. He valued his life too much. As night finally fell, Baron emerged from the operating room. +20 Free Coins Yvonne had just returned from her punishment.

Still dressed in blood-soaked clothes, she rushed up to him the moment she saw him. "Mr. Gunn, how's Ms. Summers?" Baron gave her a long look. Her pale face and the iron scent on her made it clear-she had taken her punishment. "Change your clothes. Clean yourself up. Go in and look after her. This time, you're not to leave her side-not even for the bathroom." "Yes, sir!" Yvonne's eyes welled with emotion. She had been terrified she'd lose her position, but Baron's words filled her with new determination. Shauna immediately handed him a glass of water.

He hadn't eaten or drunk anything in over ten hours. He looked terrible. Finn looked like he wanted to speak, but Baron didn't spare him a glance. After drinking, Baron finally looked a little better. Shauna spoke quickly, "I've had food prepared. Mr. Gunn, please eat something. Yvonne and I will keep watch- there won't be another mistake." "No rush." Baron waved her off, his gaze sharp and frosted as it landed on Finn. Finn instantly felt like he'd been tossed into a frozen lake. Baron's open killing intent made him swallow hard. "Mr. Gunn...

I know I ran my mouth, but you already slapped me. You're not going to punish me more, are you?" He instinctively stepped back. 2/3 1:04 pm F Chapter 69 The Poison Within +20 Free Coins Shauna, seeing this, hurried to intervene. "Mr. Gunn, Finn may have a foul mouth, but he'd never dare lay a hand on Ms. Summers." "Natalie was poisoned." At those words, both their faces changed. Finn, especially-his eyes went wide, and he flinched instinctively. "Mr. Gunn... you don't actually think I did it, do you?" Right then, Finn wanted to die. God help him-he'd run his mouth, sure.

He didn't like Natalie, true. But he knew better than to cross Baron. He wasn't suicidal. But now, because of everything he'd said, Baron had reason to suspect him. And that made Finn feel truly wronged for the first time in his life. "Mr. Gunn, I swear on my life-I never laid a finger on Natalie!" Shauna's heart dropped. This place-this tightly guarded, inner sanctuary-was only accessible to Baron's most trusted inner circle. And Natalie had been poisoned here? Even Shauna felt a chill creep down her spine. No wonder Baron was out for blood. 1:04 pm D
