Jensen had Sharon placed in the best hospital suite, with a private nurse assigned to her
around the clock.
Meanwhile, under Baron’s arrangements, Natalie and the children boarded his private jet.
Sharon’s plan to track Natalie through flight information completely collapsed.
But Baron didn’t sit idle; he went ahead and publicly announced Natalie’s return.
In an instant, the news of Sunny’s arrival time and location flooded the internet.
By the time Hansel saw it, Jensen had just finished settling Sharon in.
“Mr. Jensen, there’s news about Natalie.”
Hansel’s words sent a surge of excitement through Jensen.
“Where is she?”
“Here–reports say her flight lands at two this afternoon.”
“Let’s go! To the airport!”
Jensen strode out without sparing a glance at Sharon’s face, which had da ened so much it seemed ready to drip ink. Natalie’s flight at two in the afternoon? She cannot be allowed to come back alive!
Sharon immediately relayed the news to Johnson.
She texted: “Use whatever means necessary–I want Natalie dead!”
Johnson frowned at the message.
The other side had announced her return so openly.
It was a tricky situation.
Natalie, however, felt no such burden. Watching the two little ones at her side curiously

looking around the cabin, she couldn’t help but feel a pang of concern.
“Will it really be okay bringing the kids along?”
“What do you want to do?”
Baron understood her all too well.
In a low voice, Natalie said, “Originally, I wanted to make your identity public. But Grant International Holdings has always kept a low profile; revealing that card now feels premature. And with the children… I don’t want to expose them to too much risk yet.”
“You mean to walk into this alone?”
Baron immediately grasped her meaning.
Seeing the stormy look on his face, Natalie tugged at his arm, her tone soft. “Aren’t you going to have people protecting me?”
“That doesn’t make it absolutely safe.”
“But it could draw the real mastermind out. Sharon definitely won’t be able to resist trying to kill me; if we use this moment to pull her and whoever backs her into the open, it’s the perfect chance.”
She blinked her big eyes, throwing him playful looks over and over.
“Natalie, that’s cheating!”
Baron shoved her head aside, still scowling.
But Natalie knew he was wavering.
“I promise I’ll protect myself. And didn’t you agree before? That my revenge was mine to carry
out?”
Her retort left Baron momentarily speechless.
“Do you even realize what I’m afraid of?”
“I do. You’re worried those people, desperate and reckless, might hurt me. But I’m just as afraid they might turn on the children. I’ve never really fulfilled my duties as a mother; dragging them into this dark storm doesn’t sit right with me either. But I also know… you’re capable of protecting them, aren’t you?”

Looking at her now, Baron couldn’t help but sigh.
“So what you’re saying is, for the time being, I can’t claim you publicly.”
“Don’t pout. Later, I’ll make sure you and the kids have the most glorious recognition. How’s
that?”
With Natalie speaking like that, Baron could only indulge her.
Just as the plane touched down, a group of people suddenly rushed toward them.
Baron’s face hardened instantly.
