Chapter 476
Bang!
The gunshot echoed through the room instantly, the bullet ripping straight into Fabian’s thigh. He let out a muffled groan of agony, his suspended body violently swaying.
Breathing hard, he glared at Lance with a twisted smirk. “Am I wrong? Jackson came looking for Nathalie back then. But when he saw the two of you together, he walked away.”
Fabian suddenly burst into unhinged laughter. “Hahaha… Lance, you accepted her confession so fast, didn’t you? Were you terrified your own brother was going to steal her first?”
_ance’s face was carved from ice, his dark eyes radiating pure lethality. Without a word, he raised the gun and fired again. The second bullet tore nto Fabian’s other leg.
Nathalie listened in sheer disbelief, staring at Fabian as if he were out of his mind. “What are you talking about? Jackson was already dating Felice back then.”
‘No, he wasn’t,” Fabian gasped, shaking his head. “He went looking for you. When he saw you with Lance, he got drunk and ended up with Felice.”
Nathalie froze completely.

If she didn’t already know the truth about the earthquake, she might have been confused as to why Jackson was looking for her. But she knew now. Jackson must have been searching for the girl who saved him in the rubble. Because it was her.

She pulled out her own weapon.
Seeing the gun in her hand, Fabian closed his eyes. “If I die by your hands,

I’m not going to let you die,” Nathalie said, her voice devoid of emotion. “I never did anything to hurt you, yet you’ve repeatedly tried to end my life. You owe me, Fabian.”
She raised the gun, settling into the stance Lance had taught her, and aimed.
She pulled the trigger. The bullet clipped his ribs, and his face contorted n absolute agony.
