Chapter 1052 The Same Moon
After showering, Natalie changed into clean nightwear and lay down on the bed. She then took an extra pillow and
hugged it tightly before breathing in the scent of the pillow.
It had been almost a week since Samuel left. She missed him. She yearned for him even more after the startling
episode on the rooftop earlier.
The man had risked his life to get the best treatment for his wife. In fact, he had been repeating his wish to save
her even when he was on his deathbed.
Perhaps she would take the same path Barnaby had taken if that happened to her and Samuel. Mount Draghide
was a remote place with barely any communication devices.
Natalie turned in the bed to look out the window at the bright moon. I wonder how Samuel’s doing now. Meanwhile,
on top of Mount Draghide, Malcolm sighed as he watched Samuel, who was biting on a wooden stick.
Although Jorden said he was rather confident in getting rid of the poison in Samuel, Malcolm could not help but feel
that the process of ridding the poison was simply excruciating.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtPer Jorden’s words, the process would be akin to a rebirth—it was a trip to the grim reaper’s house. Moreover, it
had been six hours. In other words, Malcolm’s dear disciple had been on the verge of death for six hours.
Malcolm could only watch Samuel helplessly as his heart ached, for any medicine he could give to alleviate the pain
might interfere with the antidote Jorden had developed.
He left silently.
Samuel continued to stay in the dark room, but his eyes were fixed on the bright moon outside the window.
He silently told the moon about his longing for Natalie.
He had promised her to return safely no matter what.
Even if he had to go through the pain akin to getting skinned alive or melted alive, he was still going to endure it
and get all the poison out of his system.
More From The Web
“Nat…” Samuel called out hoarsely.
Although the two were separate, their minds were preoccupied with thoughts of each other that night. Both passed
through the long night with their yearnings for one another.
The next day, the news of the robbery spread like wildfire.
When Bastien saw the article, he furrowed his brows and asked Joseph, “What happened afterward?”
Joseph reported, “There were a total of five robbers. Three were shot dead at the scene, and two were brought
back for interrogation to find out if there was someone else behind it. It’s mostly to find out if King is involved.”
“Was there a hostage?”
“Yes. Apparently, the first hostage was a pregnant woman, but a young woman negotiated with the robber and
swapped places with the pregnant woman. She was then brought to the rooftop. But everything was smooth later
on. Major General Sutton led a team of special forces from his troops and successfully rescued the hostage.”
Bastien nodded and commented, “As expected of a descendant of General Sutton. The major-general is like his
father. Still, this young woman who volunteered to swap places with the initial hostage is smart and brave. She
deserves an award.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Indeed,” Joseph agreed with a nod.
“Joseph, make a call and ask about the young woman. I’d like to commend her with an award.”
“Okay.”
Joseph then made a call right there and then and asked some questions to the person on the other end of the line.
After ending the call, Joseph shook his head regretfully. “Prince Jonathan, that young woman did not leave her
name behind, but someone took a photo of her back then.”
“A photo?” Bastien’s eyes lit up. “Get the photo from them. I’d like to see what the brave woman looks like.”
“Understood.”
Shortly after, Joseph retrieved the photo from the soldiers.
Joseph did not look closely at the photo before handing it to Bastien. “Prince Jonathan, this is the young woman’s
picture.”
The robber’s expression was a bloodthirsty one as he held the young woman hostage. Unlike him, she had a calm
look despite her status as the hostage. Her hair was a little messy, but anyone who saw her would still say she was
a beautiful woman.
The moment Bastien saw the photo, his heart skipped a beat.
“It’s her?” he exclaimed.
