Chapter 1204 Owning Up
A few people stood to attention in front of the villa, dressed in housekeeper uniforms.
A woman clad in a purple dress stood in front of them, fists clenched at her sides as she glared at Sean and the woman in his arms.
Jacqueline’s face contorted with hatred as she recognized Natalie.
Sean’s expression darkened as he noticed her animosity. He warned coldly, “Listen carefully, Jacqueline. Natalie will be living here from now on. If you even touch a single hair on her, I’ll tie you up with some bait and toss you into the ocean for the sharks. Try me!”
He added a glare for good measure.
Jacqueline huffed in response and averted her gaze. She bit her lip before complaining pettily, “I won’t harm her for the sake of our plans, but you’re sorely mistaken if you think I’ll be all smiles toward her.”
“I’m sure Natalie shares your sentiments,” Sean replied drily. He smirked at Jacqueline before carrying Natalie into the villa.
Jacqueline turned around and glared at his back, rage burning in her eyes.
Just wait until I’ve usurped you from your comfy throne! I’ll kill both you and your precious Natalie! But not before paying you back tenfold for all the humiliation you’ve thrown my way!
Meanwhile, Sean gently laid Natalie on a bed in the master bedroom. He tucked her under the blankets before turning to the maids who had entered the room. “She’s the new mistress of this house. Take good care of her.”
“Yes, Sir.” The housekeepers bowed in deference.
He stroked Natalie’s face tenderly, lingering on her eyes for several seconds.
Sean left the room soon after.
In the meantime, Shane had successfully gathered his reinforcements. The local police had locked down the city in search of Natalie.
Several hours passed without any news on Natalie. Connor’s inspection of the security footage surrounding Panorama River produced equally disappointing results.
