The memory of fire still haunted him-flames licking at her skin, crackling as they consumed her.
Natalie had lain helpless, her body burning, unable to make a sound, unable to move, forced to watch herself
inch closer to death.
That searing agony-Baron would return it to Sharon.
Jensen thought granting her medical bail would shield her from justice?
No. It had given Baron the perfect chance.
His men accepted the order swiftly.
“And the records,” Baron added, his tone like ice. “The medical file | used to treat Jensen, and the rib donation
agreement from my wife—have you found who altered and leaked them?”
The subordinate hesitated, then answered quickly. “Yes, Mr. Baron. It was a little girl. After doing it, she
disappeared. Our surveillance is usually airtight, but somehow her face was never caught on camera. And she
moved... very well for a child.”
“A little girl?”
Baron's eyes narrowed dangerously.
“Yes. She didn’t look much older than Miss, maybe seven or eight at most.”
Baron's frown deepened.

A child that age, slipping past his layers of security unnoticed? Impossible. And yet it had happened.
“Keep digging. | want her identity.”
“Yes, sir.”
He ended the call and turned to the receptionist. “Go to finance for your bonus. You did well today.”
The woman blinked, then lit up in delight. “Thank you, Chairman Grant!”
Baron strode off to catch up with Natalie.

Flynn had hoped Natalie would ride with him, but Baron cut him off.

“You can dote on my wife all you want, but don’t forget | exist. I'm the certified brother-in-law here. Hogging her
isn’t very polite, is it?”
Flynn's mouth twitched.
Wasn't this man supposed to be cold and untouchable? When had he turned into this... clown?
Natalie stifled a laugh, tugging at Baron’s hand. “Ignore him, he gets like this sometimes.”
“Wife,” Baron said, sounding wounded.
Natalie patted his hand to soothe him, then told Flynn, “Brother, I'll ride with Baron. We'll pick the kids up from
school first.”
“Fine.” Flynn had no choice but to agree.
At the kindergarten, the director looked uneasy at their sudden request for leave. But one look at Baron's sharp,
intimidating expression, and all objections died.
“I'll fetch the children.”
Sean and Susie trudged out, looking tired-until they saw both parents waiting. They lit and bolted forward.
“Daddy! Mommy!”
Natalie crouched with open arms, her heart melting.
The twins dashed as if racing each other. Just as they were about to dive into her embrace, Baron swooped in
and snatched Susie up.
She blinked in confusion-while Sean crashed into Natalie's arms. She lifted him easily.
Susie scowled.
“Stinky Daddy! | want Mommy! She's soft and smells nice-l don’t want you!”
Sean flushed pink but hugged Natalie tighter, his cheek pressed smugly against hers.
Natalie's heart swelled at the sight.
“How was your first day? Did you enjoy it?” she asked gently.

Susic beamed. “It was great! Mommy, so many kids played with us!”
Sean gave her a look. “Played with us? More like you forced them to play with you.”
Baron frowned. “What do you mean?”

Susie’s eyes flashed. “Shut up! You're acting like the victim when you got the prize. Sitting in Mommy's arms and
still running your mouth? Want to trade places?”
Sean only tightened his hold around Natalie's neck, rubbing his cheek against hers. “Nope.”
“You-! Sean, I'll duel you!”
Susie squirmed furiously, flailing her little hands toward her brother.
Just then, a girl dashed out of the building.
“Susie! Here's your afternoon snack. Teacher toldto give it to you and Sean.”
Her voice was sweet and clear, her words articulate.
Natalie blinked, momentarily caught off guard.
