Notolie wos unfomilior with the nome “Gole.”
When Zophie noticed the lock of recognition in Notolie's eyes, she leoned over to grob Notolie by her hoir ond
snorled, “Whot? You blew him up into pieces, but you don't even remember him? Why? Why ore you ollowed to

Zophie's love for Gole hod toppled her over the edge. Flomes of hotred burned bright in her eyes.
Her grip on Notolie's hoir wos deothly tight. Notolie's scolp hurt so much thot she storted to wonder if Zophie wos
going to pull her hoir off.

Natalie was unfamiliar with the name “Gale.”
When Zophie noticed the lack of recognition in Natalie's eyes, she leaned over to grab Natalie by her hair and
snarled, “What? You blew him up into pieces, but you don't even remember him? Why? Why are you allowed to
keep breathing when he's gone from this world?”
Zophie's love for Gale had toppled her over the edge. Flames of hatred burned bright in her eyes.
Her grip on Natalie's hair was deathly tight. Natalie's scalp hurt so much that she started to wonder if Zophie was
going to pull her hair off.
“So it's him... It's him...” The man who died in the explosion at the underground base.
Natalie finally recalled who he was, but she did not regret her actions at all.
If that man did not die back then, she would have died instead. Even if time turned back and she was put in that
situation again, she would still detonate the explosive.
Upon realizing that Natalie seemed to have recalled Gale, Zophie let out a melancholic laugh. “Gale never said he
loved me, but he was the only one in the organization who cared for me. There were missions with high risk factors,
and he would take my place for them while letting me do the easier tasks instead. He was the only trace of warmth
I had in the organization, but you killed him! You took him away from me!”
Natalie's scalp stung again, and she could even feel blood seeping out this time.
When she locked eyes with Zophie's bloodshot ones, she felt a chill run down her spine.
Nevertheless, Natalie did not beg Zophie for mercy.
Instead, she was counting down in her mind.
Half an hour since Zophie touched the jade key should pass soon. I'm aching all over, and I'm sure I have a few
hairline fractures, but only by holding on will I get the chance to turn the tables!
All of a sudden, Zophie shrieked, and she let go of Natalie's hair.
Her hands abruptly turned green, and she even felt as if bugs were chewing on her bones. It tickled, and it hurt.
She wished she could slice off the skin of her hands.
“W-What's going on?” Zophie was baffled at the sudden change, but she was soon gripped by shock. “My hands...
Why have my hands become like this?”
Once Natalie was out of Zophie's restraint, she slowly rose to her feet and wiped the blood that seeped out from
the corner of her lips.

“I... You...” Zophie gave a long look at Natalie before looking back at her hands. Belatedly, she realized what was
going on. “You tricked me! You did something to that jade key—you applied something to it! How dare you pull such
a lowly trick on me, Natalie?”
“You kidnapped my child, threatened me, and tricked me several times.” Natalie's lips curled into a sneer. “I'm just
letting you have a taste of your own medicine, so why are you saying that I'm using lowly tricks now?”
The colors drained from Zophie's face. She screamed, “What did you use on the jade key?”
“Just a kind of poison. You'll suffer, but don't worry, it won't end your life. However, don't expect to fight or hold a
gun with these hands in the next five hours.”
Natalie had won the fight.
She had guessed that Zophie would tie a bomb by Yumi's side.
Afraid that Zophie would choose to end both her and Yumi's life together upon realizing that the poison on the jade
key was a lethal one, Natalie chose to use a slow-acting poison.
It was mild, and it would take a while for the effects of the poison to take place. That way, Natalie would have
enough time to send Yumi somewhere safe.
In other words, Natalie's earlier endurance was for the sake of turning the tables.
