Chapter 169 Blow Dry Before World Ends

Natalie scolded herself. What on earth am | saying? Why would those kinds of words even cout of my

mouth? And what did | chere for again?

Baron was caught off guard by her slip, but when he saw the frustration on her face, the violence and anger

clouding him eased considerably.

“You wantto shower for you to watch?”

“Baron!”

Natalie cut him off quickly. “I heard you saw something on the news and chere upset, so | cto check on

you.”

The blow dryer paused in his hand.

Suddenly, he felt as if his heart was flowing through his fingers with her hair; just like her strands sliding past his

touch, her concern smoothed away the storm that had been raging inside him.

“Worried about me? And you ran here with your hair still wet?”

His voice was low, husky, carrying a rasp that made Natalie's pulse stutter. He's not seriously thinking of taking

“Baron, | saw the news. I'll deal with Jensen right away; | won't let him run his mouth like that. If you're still

angry, you can always put a sack over his head tonight and at him senseless.”

Natalie moved to get up, but Baron pressed a hand firmly on her shoulder.

helpless laugh, the corners of her lips curving up.

Alright.”

Neither of them mentioned Jensen again.

For that moment, the air between them was quiet, harmonious; the kind of peace you wished you could freeze

forever.

When Baron finally finished drying her hair and set the dryer aside, he said, “Do whatever you want; don’t worry

about me. I'll make sure you're safe. Remember this-even if you poke a hole in the sky, your husband will clean

it up for you.”

Natalie's eyes grew damp.

“Mm. Then I'll go take care of things online.”

“Alright.”

Baron reluctantly let her go.

He would have loved to pull her into the shower with him, but clearly that wasn’t happening right now.

Natalie stood, turned, and rose on tiptoe to kiss him lightly on the lips.

“If something bothers you, don’t bottle it up. If you need to vent, go after Jensen-1 won’t mind. Just don’t expose

your identity or leave evidence behind. | can’t let my husband be dragged down by trash like him.”

Baron's temper dissolved instantly; the corners of his lips practically curled on their own.

“Alright.”

Only then did Natalie leave the gym.

But the moment she stepped out, the softness in her eyes hardened into steel.

If Jensen wanted to ruin her, then she would show him no mercy.

Natalie opened her Twitter and posted a direct statement: “I, Sunny, have no connection whatsoever to Luke

Corp’s Mr. Jensen. Please show sself-respect, Mr. Jensen.”

The inteexploded.

“What? Mr. Jensen was lying?”

“Is this the first tMs. Sunny has fought back this hard?”

‘But weren't all of Ms. Sunny’s past designs licensed through Mr. Jensen?”

In no time, debates filled the web, public opinion shoving Jensen and Luke Corp into the harshest spotlight.

The shareholders of Luke Corp immediately confronted him.

“Jensen, what the heck are you doing? Do you even know Ms. Sunny at all?”

“Jensen, do

realize how much our stock has dropped? And you dared to spout nonsense about Ms. Sunny?”

“If you really have such a good relationship with her, then fix this mess right now. Otherwise, Luke Corp is

finished.”

Their voices buzzed like a swarm of angry birds, but Jensen didn’t react; his hawk-like eyes were glued to

Natalie's statement.

She had denied their relationship.

No.

This woman could not be his Natalie.

“Shut up!”

His sudden roar silenced the room, leaving the shareholders frozen in fear.

Jensen's face was a storm of darkness, his expression so murderous that no one dared speak again.

“Gentlemen, Mr. Jensen will handle this matter. Please, go back for now, Hansel said, stepping in as his assistant

to usher them out.

Once the office was empty, Jensen's eyes burned crimson.

He quickly typed out a private message under Natalie's statement: “Who are you? You are not Natalie! How dare

you use her Twitter to spout lies? | warn you-delete that statement, or | will

you regret it.”
