Chapter 239
Luck and misfortune always went hand in hand.
Although she was uncertain of her future, at least she had obtained the dragonblood fruit. Once Yana ate it, her heart disease would be cured.
Closing the wooden box, Natalie hugged it close to her chest and slowly closed her eyes.
When she opened her eyes, a hint of determination flashed across them.
Not only do I have many things to do, but I want to watch Xavian, Clayton, Franklin, and Sophia grow up too! I can‘t allow myself to die here.
Later, she wrote a list of tools and handed it to the maid, who would then pass the list to Milton.
Only two or three of those tools were used to make incense. The rest were used to modify crossbow arrows.
Natalie shut herself in the room to make incense. Liliana was concerned about the progress and would often come to visit her. Seeing that she was extremely concentrated on making incense, Liliana could not hide the smile in her eyes.
By right, the more Liliana believed that the incense would work, the better it would be for Natalie.
However, when she saw Liliana‘s smile, she would feel upset.
“Dr. Nichols, when Josiah wakes up, I want to tell him that I like him.”
“You never told him that?” Natalie probed.
“Never..” Liliana smiled with tears in her eyes. “He said he wanted to take me far away, but I laughed at him for overestimating himself. He was always protecting me, but I never cherished what he had done for me and even mocked him for being nosy. However, when he was covered in blood, I could only watch as he fell asleep.”
Initially, Natalie thought that Liliana and Josiah were deeply in love with each other. Little did she know that Josiah did not even hear the response he wanted to hear before he died.

At that instant, she suddenly thought of Samuel.
She wanted to get her revenge. Besides the Nichols family, there were also more powerful families around.
Thinking that love was troublesome and would restrain her from getting stronger, she shut Samuel out of her heart.
After Liliana left, Natalie continued to make incense.
Since Josiah was dead, naturally, the incense would not work on him.
The incense was for the living to smell.
“Yes.”
