Chapter 1178 No Chance To Strike Back
A menacing grin bloomed on the man’s face. Helma wasn’t a fool. She somewhat had a premonition after her near-
death experience. Now that she heard her so-called father’s remark, the answer that she had deep in her heart
was revealed instantly. “A-A split personality?” It was just three simple words, but Helma realized she was stuttering
through her words as soon as she said them out loud.
The man looked exactly the same as Geert, but they gave off vibes that were completely opposite. The man in front
of her looked hostile and emitted a domineering aura as if he was an arrogant king.
“A split personality? I suppose you can put it that way,” King replied sarcastically. “But I prefer saying that my origin
self can no longer bear my ego’s weakness, so my stronger origin self was unleashed.” Origin self? Ego?
Helma bit her lip and stared at the man in front of her. “A-Are you going to kill me?” She backed away frightfully as
the suffocating feeling she sensed last time rushed over her. “What’s good about killing you?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Then what are you…” Helma pressed her palm against her chest while staring at her “father,” who seemed to be
familiar yet unfamiliar at the same time.
“As a daughter, are you really satisfied with having a useless man like Geert as your father?” King approached
Helma step by step. “A useless man like him will live a mediocre life. If it weren’t because of your mother’s royal
status protecting him, he would be nothing! He isn’t even capable of helping you win over Bastien!”
Hope filled Helma’s heart instantaneously as she heard his words. “Are… Are you saying that you can?”
“Of course.” King stared right into Helma’s eyes. Word by word, he said, “It’s been so many years, so we should’ve
settled everything once and for all. On the night of the wedding, I will make Bastien your man and make him do
everything for you. Moreover, he’ll only love you and dote on you for the rest of his life without ever having the guts
to betray you!”
King’s suggestions were simply too attractive. The glimmer of hope in Helma’s eyes became stronger in an instant.
I will do anything as long as I can be with Bastien!
She nodded solemnly. “I’m willing to do anything you want me to do as long as Bastien will be mine!”
Hearing that, King smirked smugly. “Soon!”
Unbeknownst to anyone, a storm was brewing under the calm surface before the wedding.
Before the ceremony, Natalie was staring at her reflection in the mirror. A layer of complicated yet exquisite
makeup covered her beautiful face. Other than her own eyes, she thought that her current look was thoroughly
unrecognizable to her.
Within the month, Natalie had considered escaping this place or contacting the outside world while recuperating.
However, there wasn’t once where she had succeeded.
Bastien had prohibited her from fleeing as he imprisoned her in a heavily guarded area.
Everything remained the same throughout the month.
Betty didn’t know that Natalie would be wearing a hyper-realistic mask, as Bastien had assigned a new maid to look
after Natalie right before the wedding.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter Natalie put on the wedding dress and the expensive tiara, she was brought to Luna Palace by the maid.
Soon, Natalie saw the other main star for the night —Bastien.
Bastien looked pleasantly surprised when he saw Natalie. “You’re beautiful.”
Natalie pursed her lips and remained quiet.
Bastien took the initiative to lean closer to her and whispered into her ear, “Samuel will be here today as well. I’m
sure you’re aware that this is my turf. I want him to watch you become my woman. Of course, if you don’t
cooperate with me and get this wedding over with today, I can guarantee Samuel won’t be able to leave this place
safely tonight.”
The two of them were standing extremely close to each other, and Bastien was speaking so softly that what he said
was only audible among themselves.
From the outsiders’ perspectives, Bastien and Natalie were merely an affectionate newlywed couple who couldn’t
get enough of each other.
Only Natalie understood Bastien was really taking advantage of her emotions and wasn’t giving her any chance to
fight back.
