Chapter 1109 All Because Of You Zophie snorted at Natalie and Sarahâs exchange. Wait for Natalie to go back? Who knows if Natalie gets to go back?
With Yumi in her hands, Sarah limped in the opposite direction from Natalie and Zophie. In no time, Natalie and Zophie were the only ones by the port containers.
âNatalie, the girl is safe now, so you should keep your promise and lower your gun,â Zophie said with a sneer. âBurning bridges right as you cross it isnât something someone like you will do, am I right?â
âYou donât need to agitate me,â Natalie uttered, âand Iâve never cared about good and evil. Iâve only done things I wanted to do. Sure, you can get me to lower my gun, but youâll have to tell me if Blaze is involved in my granddad Arnold Bayerâs death.â
The investigation into Natalieâs maternal grandfatherâs death had been paused after Thomas and Dexmed Pharmaceutical were bought over by Dream.
However, the pause did not mean that Natalie had given up on finding out the truth behind the matter.
There was no way Natalie would let the opportunity of having a Blaze member in her hands slip by without asking questions.
Her question was one that Zophie did not expect. She was momentarily stunned before she laughed in contempt. âIâm only a few years older than you, but youâre hoping to find out something about the truth behind your granddadâs death from me? Unfortunately, I know nothing. I heard from my seniors that Arnold used to be a famous doctor in Chanaea and that King wanted him to join the organization. Alas, Arnold was a prideful and stubborn man. Not only did he not join Blaze, but he even went up against the organization in every way he could. In the end, King was the one who ordered his death. I think he used Arnoldâs useless son-in-law to kill him.â
When Natalie heard that Blaze had killed Arnold in that way, her eyes widened into saucers.
âNatalie, why must you make Blaze your enemy?â Zophie grinned hideously. âIf you can put aside the vengeance of the previous generation and pledge loyalty to King, King will surely see great value in you with Dream and the hyper-realistic mask you made. By then, it will not be a pipe dream for you to have all the wealth in the world.â
âNo way. Thereâs no way thatâs ever going to happen!â Natalie hissed through gritted teeth.
Those were words that Zophie only said to enrage Natalie.
While Natalie was distracted by the fury in her, Zophie spun around and grabbed Natalieâs wrist before hitting it to make her drop her gun.
Natalieâs wrist ached, and once she lost her gun, she began fighting Zophie.
Zophie took on the offensive role, while Natalie took on a defensive stance.
Zophie attacked with ease, but Natalie had a hard time keeping her defense up.
After all, Zophie had undergone strict training in Blaze since young. She was one of the best fighters among the women, and she could even leisurely hold her ground against four to five ordinary men.
Natalie, on the other hand, did not receive such training. While she had gone through some basic combat training, those were only for emergency and self-defense purposes. She was not as skilled as Zophie in combat.
Natalie was struck in her abdomen, and she fell down on her knees, the pain threatening to tear her apart.
Zophie glanced at Natalie in derision. âToday is not the day you die, Natalie.â
Natalie panted and tried to climb to her feet, but Zophie gave her another kick.
âI wonât let you die so easily.â The thought of Galeâs tragic death made Zophie scream hysterically. âIâm going to make you feel all the pain youâve inflicted on Gale back then! If not for you, Gale would have still been fine. This is all because of you! It was all because of you!â
