Chapter 341 The Price of a Life
The moment the words left her lips, Natalie regretted them.
“Forget it. Just get him to the hospital,” she muttered.

But Baron had heard the plea for Witch Doctor, and though he understood why she'd said it- because she didn’t
want to owe Jensen-something still pinched inside him. He knew Jensen had thrown himself in front of the blade
to save her. He knew Natalie only wanted to repay that debt properly. He knew everything, and yet the thought
of her asking for Witch Doctor still left him unsettled.
Then she took it back, saying not to trouble him, and the knot inside him loosened. She was still thinking of him.
She didn’t want to make things harder for him. That was enough to soothe him.
“Don’t worry,” Baron said softly. “I'll see that Witch Doctor treats him.”
“No,” Natalie shook her head quickly. “Just now | was confused. Jensen took that blade for me- it’s my debt, not
yours. | won't let you burn your connection to Witch Doctor on my behalf. Baron... I'm sorry.”
He brushed it off with a half-smile. “We're husband and wife. Don’t apologize. I'll take him. You stay. When the
police come, they'll want statements. It'll be rough on you.”
Natalie nodded. “I know. Just... do your best.”
He gave her one last smile before turning away with Jensen in tow.
As the car carrying Baron and Jensen pulled out, Natalie's knees wobbled. She stumbled back, nearly collapsing.
“Natalie!” Yvonne caught her quickly.

Only then did Yvonne see how pale she was. Blood had splattered across the hem of Natalie's clothes-Jensen’s
blood, a vivid, searing red.
“Sit, just for a moment,” Yvonne urged, guiding her onto a chair. “Westin has Anna in custody. When the police
ask, you'll say she escaped. She's too important-we need to crack her first, find out who's behind all this. For the
rest, just stick to the facts.”
Yvonne's voice was steady, but Natalie’s mind drifted. Again and again she saw Jensen throwing himself between
her and the blade.

He had said he loved her still. Natalie hadn't believed him.
Now he'd staked his life to prove it, and still she doubted.

There had been too much-his secret talk with Anna, Anna's ties to Loretta, the shadow of Rachel. Jensen's
sacrifice... was it for her, or to cover something else? To protect Loretta?
Her chest tightened with a bitterness she hated to admit. Once, if someone had risked everything for her, she
never would have questioned it. But now-even with Jensen, after five years of marriage-she couldn't stop herself
from doubting his heart.
But a debt was a debt. She couldn't ignore it.
Natalie's thoughts sharpened. “Yvonne, put someone on Loretta. And spread word to her that Jensen was
stabbed-and poisoned. Watch how she reacts. Follow her, see what she does after. If possible, tap her phone.”
Yvonne blinked, startled by the order.

The police arrived soon after. Because Natalie was the victim, she, Yvonne, and Westin were taken to the station
for statements.
Across town, Loretta nearly collapsed when she heard Jensen had been poisoned.
“Who? Who dared touch someone from the Luke family?”
Her butler held her arm as she swayed. “Madam, calm yourself. They say Mr. Jensen is in critical condition. The
doctors aren't certain he'll survive.”
