CHAPTER 493: CHAPTER 493: BEING RUTHLESS TO ONESELF

Connor erupted: "What ex-boyfriend! I’m your current boyfriend!"

"My fiancé is missing, does it have anything to do with you?"

"No!"

"If it’s you, please let him go. He’s innocent. He paid so much of my family’s debt and saved my parents’ lives. I’m very grateful to him, so I’m begging you, please don’t make things difficult for him."

Connor’s heart was suddenly torn apart!

The pain reddened his eyes and silenced his voice.

Is money that important?

Important enough that she’s willing to beg him to let that old man go!

The call got disconnected at some point, and Connor felt not only his limbs going numb, but even his mind.

In a daze, he heard Natalie Niles say in an indifferent tone: "I’ve won, Emmett Price, from today on, you’re mine."

He didn’t want to hear this voice; it was this voice that tore his heart to shreds.

"Get out."

Natalie Niles knew when to stop, so she turned and left his hospital room.

Johan Niles was just looking everywhere for her when he saw her and immediately picked her up: "Sis, don’t run around, go back and lie down, I’ll detoxify you again."

He felt incredibly guilty towards Natalie, believing it was his own mental issues that nearly cost his sister her life.

Natalie Niles gave him a pale smile: "I’m fine, Johan."

"Sis, do you blame me?"

"No, you’re my brother. I’ll never blame you for anything you do."

Natalie Niles truly didn’t blame him, because...

She recognized the Silver Ring Snake, deliberately called it a Hundred Rings Snake, intentionally hurt it, and purposely let it bite her.

She’s not just ruthless to others, she’s ruthless enough to herself!

Winning against Connor, Natalie Niles felt no joy.

She had calculated and schemed meticulously, able to defeat most people in this world.

But she couldn’t win against Isabella Weaver, losing catastrophically whenever confronted, to the point where she no longer dared to reveal any of her thoughts.

As calculating as she was, she could never win Harry Hunter’s heart.

So, she settled for second best, not hoping to have Harry Hunter, but hoping to stay by his side, even if it was just watching him from afar.

In this world, besides Isabella Weaver, the only one closest to him was Connor.

If she couldn’t win against Isabella Weaver, she refused to believe she couldn’t win against Cora Ginger!

"Johan, help me pack my things. I’m going to move into Connor’s house."

"What?!"

Johan Niles staggered, almost dropping Natalie!

"He agreed to let me be his girlfriend."

"Impossible!"

"I’ll show you our photos."

Natalie Niles showed her brother the newly taken photos, with a smile carrying just the right amount of shyness.

"He can’t move at all right now, isn’t he just at your mercy! Sis, the credibility of this photo is zero!"

The feigned shyness on Natalie Niles’s face instantly vanished. How did her dumb brother suddenly get smart?

Johan Niles placed her back on the hospital bed, looking at her pale face devoid of color, still feeling sorry for her: "Stop messing around, lie down properly, I’ll get you some medicine. Next time, I’ll introduce you to a reliable boyfriend, not a nutcase. Also, don’t think about Connor anymore. I don’t want to call Connor brother-in-law, it’s so awkward."

"Alright."

Natalie Niles replied weakly, closing her eyes to rest.

Johan Niles tucked her in and went out to get medicine. When he came back, the window was wide open, and there was no one on the bed!

Furious, he cursed: "Natalie Niles, you’re crazy! Running off with toxins still in your body! Numb and still jumping out of windows, how did you not break your neck!"
