Patrick was already put into prison by the time the paper came out.
Sebastian sighed and rested his head on her shoulder.
âDestroying the Klein family completely will only dirty my hands, which is something my mom wouldnât want to see.
If she was still alive, she wouldâve approved what I am doing now.
Okay, honey.
Itâs up to you.
Turning her head to look at him, Natalie pinched his cheek and kissed it.
You can finally take a break now.
Sebastian smiled, closed his eyes, and said nothing.
Since he had given his word to Patrick, he didnât do anything to the other members of the Klein family, which gave them the opportunity to regroup.
Despite this, they had lost most of their power and were deemed irrelevant now.
A few days later, Sebastian held a press conference.
He officially announced to the public that he would detach himself from the Klein family completely and that he would have nothing to do with the Klein family from now on.
He was no longer Sebastian Klein, but only Brandon Larson.
An Unexpected Incident After the press conference, Brandon didnât take Natalie straight home.
Instead, he drove all the way to the cemetery again.
The two went to Sylviaâs grave together.
Brandon had also brought the cake that his mother was fond of.
âMom, Iâve finally avenged you and cleared your name.â Brandon knelt down and carefully placed the cake in front of the grave.
With a gentle look on his face, he touched her photo on aS tombstone and murmured, âAfter this, Natalie and I, weâll go to Barnes and we wonât come back too often in the future.
Iâm sorry.â Natalie knelt down next to him and held his arm, looking at Sylviaâs picture.
âBrandon and I are very happy now.
The guy who hurt you in the past is now behind bars.â Just then, a cool breeze blew past the cemetery, washing over the two refreshingly.
It was as though this was Sylviaâs gentle response.
Right when they got home from the cemetery, Natalie began to pack their things.
Brandon put his hand on her suitcase and stopped her gently.
âThereâs no hurry.
We still have another day before you have to go back to work, right? Thereâs something very important we have to do first.â
âWhat is it? Does it have anything to do with the Klein family?â Natalie looked up at him anxiously.
Brandonâs eyes took on a different light.
He pulled Natalie towards him, got close to her ear, and whispered softly, âLaney and Tasha are both expecting babies.
Donât you want one too?â Hearing this, Natalie blushed, lowered her head, and murmured.
shyly, âBut I want to keep working.â Truth be told, when she found out that Laney was pregnant, something sparked in her heart.
âI know you want a baby,â Brandon said with a smile.
âWe can just let nature take its course.
Now that your work is stable, thereâs no reason we canât have one.
I think our child will be very cute!â The two of them were naked in bed, making love, when the phone suddenly rang.
âOh, itâs the healthcare worker who takes care of Hannah.
Brandon, I have to take this.â Blushing slightly, Natalie pushed Brandon gently.
She had wanted to take Hannah to Barnes, but the latter was used to life in the village and didnât want to leave, so Natalie hired a healthcare worker to look after Hannah.
The voice of the caregiver from the other end of the line was anxious.
âMrs. Larson, Hannahâs condition is deteriorating.
Sheâs afraid that youâd worry about her, so she asked me not to contact you.
But I didnât think that was a good idea, so I called.
Can you take her to a hospital in the city some time?â © Hearing about Hannahâs situation, Natalie instantly lost her appetite for sex.
She asked Brandon to get off of her and quickly got dressed.
âHannahâs health is getting worse.
I have to take her to the hospital right away.
And about the baby...
Letâs talk about it when I come back.â With an apologetic smile, Natalie buttoned her clothes and bent over to kiss Brandon on the lips.
âBe careful on the road.
I have a meeting in Barnes tonight.
Iâm sorry I canât go with you.
Iâll arrange a driver to take you there.â Leaning against the wall, Brandon eyed Natalie with lingering lust.
With her coat and bag in tow, Natalie hurried out of the room as she said, âItâs okay.
I can go there by myself.
Donât worry.
Iâll be back as soon as I get Hannah.â After leaving the house, she headed for the countryside.
It was very sultry in the summer in Seacisco, and the mornings felt like a sauna.
In the afternoons, however, there were often thunderous rainstorms.
As soon as the car reached the mountain road, the wind outside started to howl, indicating the rainstorm to come.
âThe weatherâs really fickle out here,â the driver looked at the sky outside the window and couldnât help but complain.
After living in Seacisco for so many years, Natalie was already used to the fickle weather.
So she just reminded the driver, âDrive carefully.â As soon as she finished speaking, she looked ahead and saw a huge boulder on the cliff in front of her suddenly rolling down the hilledâand it was coming straight at them!
The rolling boulder was huge.
If it hit the car, theyâd be smashed to pieces! Shocked, the driver couldnât help but curse, âF*ck!â He turned the steering wheel immediately to dodge the stone and the whole car swerved to the right.
Sitting in the back seat of the car, Natalie was flung towards the window due to the momentum.
Her heart pounded in her chest as she watched the car narrowly avoid the rolling boulder.
However, she didnât have the time to be relieved.
Right after they dodged the boulder, the car rammed into the guardrail on the roadside, flying off the edge of the cliffâfalling right into the ocean! The whole world was spinning as Natalie screamed at the top of her lungs.
Soon, the car hit the surface of the water.
Fortunately, the cliff wasnât too high, so the impact of the car falling into the water wasnât strong enough to knock Natalie out.
She had been in this situation before and knew what to do.
Panicking was useless.
She took a deep breath and held it, waiting for the sea water to completely fill the car.
The moment the water pressure inside and outside the car were the same...
She seized the opportunity, kicked the window open , and swam out.

ï¤Chapter 1329 Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen She swam upward, towards the light.
Her surroundings were endlessly blue, but she tried to keep calm and kept kicking and paddling.
When her head was out of the water, she spat out a mouthful of sea water and gasped for air.
Her vision had gone a little blurry thanks to the saltwater in her eyes.
After blinking furiously for a moment, she turned and looked around.
âSir? Are you there? Where are you?â She had been so focused on surviving that she didnât notice if the driver was able to escape.
To her despair, nobody answered her.
Her heart sank.
The driver was most likely dead.
The car should have sunk into the depths of the sea by now.
It was impossible for her to dive into the water to save the driver...
Now, she had to save herself! Natalie looked around and found that she was surrounded by steep, slippery rocks.
There wasnât a place along the cliff where she could get ashore.
