Chapter 1198 Protect Her At All Cost
Meanwhile, the fight between the men of King and Mikhail began to intensify. Mikhail’s guards did everything they could to protect the safety of the royal family. However, the Blaze team that was set up by King was well-trained. As such, they started to gain the upper hand in the fight.
In order to protect his mother, Bastien quickly became King’s target. Furthermore, his left leg had been shot by King in the past. Therefore, his combat skill was no longer sharp as before.
King pointed his gun at Bastien’s right leg before raising his eyebrow leisurely. There was an arrogant smile on his face. “Your left leg doesn’t look good. If your right leg gets shot, it may make you whole again.”
Frieda was worried about her son, so she stood in front of Bastien and cried out to Helma, “Helma, this man is your father after all! Please ask him to stop! Bastien may lose the use of one of his legs. If he loses the other, he will really become a cripple! Now, you are the only one who can get your father to change his mind! Please! I beg of you!”
Helma’s eyes reddened. A melancholic smile appeared on her face as she glanced at Frieda. “Lady Frieda, isn’t it great if Bastien becomes a cripple?” Frieda was aghast. “H-How can you say something like this?”
“Am I wrong to say that?” With her disheveled hair, Helma looked terrifying. “Even if Bastien becomes disabled, I will still take care of him. Furthermore, he can never go anywhere else if he loses both his legs. This way, he will stay by my side forever.”
Frieda gasped, and a thought popped up in her mind. Helma has gone crazy.
King loomed over them and said gleefully, “Helma has been kind enough to give all of you a chance. However, no one appreciated her! Since that’s the case, you shouldn’t expect her to beg for you! I will cripple him today!”
Ever since Bastien found out about Natalie’s background, he had given up hope completely.
In fact, he was so deep in his thoughts that he did not sense the impending danger.
Just as King was about to pull the trigger, a bright red figure suddenly appeared and shielded Bastien in the midst of the chaos.
“Stop!”
The bright red figure was very jarring amidst the chaotic scene.
What was even more eye-catching was that shocking, small face of hers.
Huh!
Some of them saw that it was Natalie, while others thought it was Jennie.
Before that, everyone had accepted that Natalie was dead. They fought hard against one another, and there was not a moment when they turned their focus on Natalie.
Everyone could not believe their eyes when they saw her once again.
How can a dead person become alive again?
Helma narrowed her gaze and was the first one to exclaim, “N-Natalie? Why are you still alive? Aren’t you already dead?”
King also paused in his movement and stared at Natalie as if she was his beloved.
“W-Where have you gone to?”
Complicated emotions engulfed Bastien as he laid eyes on Natalie once more. It was obvious he still had feelings for her.
He wanted so very much to protect her, but Frieda was hanging on to his arm very tightly. All he saw was her back view.
Mikhail had already accepted the fragility of life. However, Natalie’s appearance had ignited hope in his aged eyes again.
Our daughter is still alive!
Natalie is still alive!
Mikhail was feeling emotional. Yet, at the same time, he made a swift decision.
He did not mind losing his life or giving Loang up to someone else. However, he would do anything to protect the descendant of Jennie and him.
