The Unwavering Heart That Broke (Nathalie and Lance) novel Chapter 453

Chapter 453

Chapter 453

Lance never did anything without a plan. On the way here, he had already deployed everything. The moment Fabian showed his face, a hidden sniper had aimed right for his head.

Fabian’s target was Nathalie. He had orchestrated assassination attempts time and time again. Finally getting this opportunity, there was no way he would let it slip away.

Fabian lifted his eyelids. He seemed fully aware he was locked onto, yet he showed no fear. He just gave a light chuckle and said, “The switch is in someone else’s hands. The second anything happens to me, he hits the button, and this kid turns into a pincushion.”

He pointed up at Jasper suspended in mid-air, a bloodthirsty smirk pulling at the corners of his mouth. “Lance, have you really made your

choice?”

“Lance, Lance, I’m begging you, you have to save Jasper. He’s your older brother’s only child! Your brother was so good to you. He took that flight for you back then. If it weren’t for him, you’d be the one dead. For the sake of him dying in your place, please save his only bloodline!”

Felice begged continuously, sobbing as she looked at Lance with a tear-stained face.

The tiny boy dangled in the air, right above the terrifying steel spikes, his life hanging by a thin rope.

He was already frightened out of his wits, staring blankly at the scene, too exhausted to even cry.

A thoughtful look crossed Fabian’s face before he replied, “No can do. You’re not dead yet, so I can’t say a word.”

Nathalie forced a smile. “Then how will I know the truth if I’m dead?”

“Then you’ll just have to be a clueless ghost.” Fabian shrugged. “All you can do is pray you aren’t born into such a complicated family in your next life.”

A complicated family…

That was the only clue he revealed.

Yet, it was still utterly confusing.

Nathalie lowered her eyes briefly, then turned to Lance, her face deathly pale. “When this is over, take Felice to get the antidote. You have to cure my grandmother and send her home. Don’t let her come here anymore.”

She sounded as if she already knew Lance’s choice and was delivering

her last words.

Lance’s sharp brows pulled together tightly. Seeing her act as if she were ready to embrace death filled him with an overwhelming sense of frustration.

Was she that certain he wouldn’t choose her?

She never trusted him, did she?

From the day the cracks formed in their relationship, her trust had completely vanished.

No matter what he did, she chose to ignore it.

The feeling of heartbreak was suffocating. Lance took a deep breath, trying to ease the pain.
