Cooper turned to glare at Finn, grabbed a wad of money that his assistant had given to him, and tossed it at Finn. “My assistant will send you to the hospital. Never let me see you again!”

Finn felt a chill run down his back and quietly left with Bertilla, not daring to say another word.

“Fine, then. One down, another to go,” Nathalia said, running her fingers through her short hair nonchalantly. “You're not done yet.”

Another to go?

Cooper turned back to see Yuvan walking out of the police station.

Some of his shirt buttons had been ripped off and he looked a little bit miserable, but his stare was fixated on Nathalia.

Cooper looked down only to realize that Nathalia was dressed in a pair of jeans and a flowy, spaghetti strap top. The top grazed over her chest lightly and stopped right in the middle of her ribcage, showing off a stretch of her pale, slim waist. She looked sexy, but not cheap.

The surveillance camera footage had been too dark for him to notice and he hadn't thought to look when he had just arrived at the police station.

Cooper hadn't imagined that this would happen. He knew that this alter ego wasn't a friendly one to deal with, but he never knew how open and flirty Nathalia was. She was even flirting with two men at one go.


He took a deep breath and covered Nathalia with his own jacket before turning back to speak to Yuvan. “Thank you, Mr. Zeigler. If it hadn't been for you, she would have gotten much more badly injured. I'll treat you to a meal sometime.”

Nathalia had just lifted a hand when Cooper quickly pushed it back down. “Behave!”

He finally understood how Jack felt.

On the way back, Cooper got a call from Jack and only told him that everything was fine, leaving out the details. He didn't want Jack to blow up and go after Nathalia.

Cooper brought Nathalia back to his own condominium.

The moment Nathalia stepped in, she saw a tall, handsome man walk out of the kitchen. She paused in shock before looking at Cooper.

“You two are staying together?” she asked.

“I don't want to talk to her. You can do it,” Cooper said as he massaged his brow.

Finn had recognized Nathalia, which made Cooper worried that other people might recognize her too and release footage of what happened at the bar online. He went into the study to call his subordinate.

Armand took the first aid kit out of the cabinet and took Nathalia's hand, pulling her to sit down on the couch.

He wet a cotton bud with some water to clean the blood on Nathalia's face.

The faint scent of perfume on the woman and the way she carried herself were extremely unfamiliar to Armand. In a deep voice, he asked, “What do you want?”

“So you still haven't gotten over her?” Nathalia leaned down and placed her hand on her chin, looking at Armand with a bright smile.

Armand kneeled down and started to disinfect the injury on her knee before applying medicine to it.

Nathalia casually toyed with his short hair. Despite her careless actions, Armand's breath began to become slightly rougher.
