Natalie shot back, “Plenty of women would kill to marry you. You really think no one would give you a proper title?”

“I don’t want anyone else–just you.”

Baron’s hand wandered again, sliding up her back, but Natalie slapped it away.

“I’m tired. Quit messing around.”

She turned and went to sit on the sofa. Baron casually poured a glass of warm water and handed it to her.

“Drink some warm water–it’s good for you.”

“You sound just like a doctor.”

Though she grumbled, Natalie still accepted the glass and drank it down.

Baron’s

eyes flickered; his lips parted slightly, but in the end he didn’t dare reveal that he was the Witch Doctor.

When he saw she had finished the water, he immediately had breakfast brought in.

“Eat while we talk.”

Natalie glanced at the spread–everything she liked. It made her warm up to him even more.

“It doesn’t matter whether we separate or not. We’re husband and wife; that isn’t fake, and the kids are ours. There’s no reason for the four of us to split up. As for what other people think- that’s not something I can control.”

She thought of how Jensen had gone mad after dying in the fire; her lips curled in a mocking smile.

Hearing her words, Baron’s brows and eyes softened into a smile.

“Mm, I think you’re right. I’ll have the private jet prepared, and let Shauna come along too.”

“Bring Yvonne”

Natalie’s gaze darkened slightly as she lowered her voice. “The Stone family is already falling apart inside and out. I don’t want to get involved, but I can’t sit by and do nothing either. My

test results with Yvonne show we’re cousins. I suspect she’s Uncle Xenon’s child.”

Baron raised a brow.

“Do you have proof?”

Natalie shook her head.

“No. But I don’t think Uncle Xenon was that stupid. Even if he knew he was doomed, he’d have left something behind. That child who supposedly died in the car accident? It was the Stone family who handled everything–no one cared enough to verify if the kid was really his. So I think he swapped the child beforehand, and Yvonne may very well be his biological daughter.”

Her reasoning wasn’t without merit.

Baron placed some vegetables into her bowl and said, “Whether she is or isn’t, let the Stone family deal with it. But you’re right–now that Yvonne is my sister, there’s no reason to let anyone bully her. Fine, we’ll take her back with us.”

Natalie looked at the vegetables in her bowl and frowned.

She really didn’t want to eat them.

But judging by Baron’s expression, if she refused, he might actually feed her himself.

With a sigh, Natalie forced herself to eat them.

Baron’s lips curved into a faint smile.

“I need to head back to the villa later. My design draft is starting to take shape. Ms. Sunny’s comeback can’t be without a new piece. I want to release something first–but I can’t use Jensen’s factory anymore.”

She had worked with Foster for five years; it had been good, but since his factory was under Luke Corp, she really didn’t want any more ties to it.

Baron set down his chopsticks gracefully, picked up a napkin, and wiped his hands before speaking. “That’s easy. Your husband isn’t just a mafia godfather; I’m also a company president.”

“Huh?”

Natalie froze. She genuinely hadn’t known that.

Then she suddenly remembered the traders in the basement.

“A venture capital firm?”

“No–Grant International Holdings.”

The moment he said it, Natalie’s eyes widened.

:

“You’re the president of Grant International Holdings?”
