A Cue for Love (Natalie and Samuel)

Chapter 1051

Chapter 1051 Not As Fragile As You Think

Barnaby continued murmuring those words until he finally closed his eyes and died. Jerome then walked over to

Natalie and pulled her into his arms.

His adjutant and subordinates were still around, but he was hugging her as if they were the only two people around.

“Natalie, are you okay?”

Natalie was still in a daze, but she noticed that Jerome was hugging her a little too tightly. “I’m fine, Jerome.” Natalie

pushed his chest and tried to move away from his hug. “I’m not as fragile as you think I am.”

“Did you not know how dangerous that was earlier?” Jerome asked sternly. “My subordinates told me you offered to

take the original hostage’s place!”

Jerome rarely spoke with Natalie in such a vicious tone. In a way, that was his first time.

However, Natalie did not get angry with him for that. Instead, she answered calmly, “His original hostage was a

pregnant woman who has shown initial signs of miscarriage. If she had remained as his hostage, she and her baby

might have died. Moreover, I knew that you’d assign a sniper to the matter. As long as I go along with the guy’s

plan, I’ll eventually be rescued.”

Jerome stared at Natalie.

There was no trace of anxiety on her face at all.

Natalie then turned to the body on the ground and said wistfully, “Jerome, he’s dead now. Can you give me his

ashes? I want to pass them to his wife.”

Jerome frowned. “Do you find me cruel for killing him?”

“No.” Natalie shook her head. “You’ve only carried out your duty, and I’m only feeling a little remorseful. I thought

I’d be able to change his mind, but it seemed that he was a stubborn man. I’ve done what was necessary, and so

did you.”

Jerome understood what Natalie meant, and he soon brought Natalie away from the scene.

Jerome’s adjutant had wanted to offer to escort her away, but a look from Jerome stopped him.
