Subsequently, Natalie and Yandel turned to look.
They saw Lia staggering forward while holding onto the wall for support. Beside her was a fat man
constantly trying to put his arm around her shoulder.
Despite her struggles, the fat man kept trying to shamelessly pull her into his embrace.
Considering how common such a scene was in a bar, most of the patrons and the staff were numb to it
and didn’t intend to intervene.
Natalie knitted her brows.
Lia had almost lost her life after ingesting poison. And now, she’s here getting herself drunk. Does she
have a death wish?
When Yandel saw Natalie looking at Lia with a grim expression, he couldn’t resist asking, “Boss, do you

“Yes, I do.” Natalie nodded. “Yandel, please help her.”
Recalling Lia’s apology before she threw up blood, Natalie figured that she wasn’t truly wicked.
She must have done it because Yara tempted her with something or is blackmailing her. No matter
what, it doesn’t hurt to have her on my side.
Stepping forward with a devilish smile, Yandel grabbed the fat man’s arm.
“Let go,” he barked in a commanding tone.
The fat man scowled in response. However, after he felt the pain on his arm, his flabby cheeks began
to tremble as he let Lia go in fear.
“I’m sorry. I won’t do it again,” the fat man pleaded before turning around to flee.
Trying to find her balance, Lia looked up in a daze and pointed at Natalie.
“Oh, it’s you.”
“Ms. Johnson, it’s me indeed.” Natalie grinned. “I’m sure the last memory you have of me was when
you puked blood and collapsed into Lionel’s arms, right?”
Yandel had extended his hand to support the drunken Lia in a chivalric manner.
Upon hearing Natalie’s words, he retracted them at once.
“Boss, that’s Lia?” Furrowing his brows, Yandel snapped, “Since you recognize her, why did you ask
me to save her? Even if something happens to her, she is just reaping what she sowed.”
Yandel was never one to be sympathetic.
The fact that he managed to hold himself back from punching Lia was an achievement.
Releasing his grip, Yandel allowed Lia to tumble onto the ground. However, Natalie stepped forward to
hold her up instead.
Yandel protested with a frown, “Boss, she’s not worth…

“Ms. Johnson.” Feeling conflicted, Lia closed her eyes and resigned herself to face Natalie’s revenge.
“Given that you have just been discharged from the hospital, you should take better care of yourself.
Now, call your brother to pick you up.” Natalie plainly added, “All of us have only one life. The reason I
helped you today is that I don’t want to see someone I have painstakingly saved throw her life away
again. If you are really sick of living, I suggest you sign an organ donor form to donate your organs to
those who want to live on.”
Natalie words were both candid and pragmatic.
Although she was cognizant of Lia’s sorrow, there were many others in the world who were suffering
more than her. In fact, those people didn’t even have the ability to hurt themselves indiscriminately like
her.
Having said her piece, Natalie turned to leave but had her arm grabbed by Lia instead.
“I’m sorry.” With tears streaming down her cheeks, Lia dropped to her knees in front of Natalie. “Ms.
Nichols, I confess that I was out to frame you, but I had no other choice. That woman knows an
important secret of mine. And because of that, I was forced to do what I did to you.”
