Chapter 188 Poison and Betrayal " Daddy and Mommy are coming back ? " " Yes , they should be back soon . " +10 Free Coins Yvonne wasn't actually sure - she had only said it to calm the two children who had been bickering endlessly . At the same time , Natalie and Baron had no interest in figuring out who had set the beggar against Sharon . Neither of them cared enough to dig deeper . Natalie leaned back tiredly . " Let's go home and rest . This afternoon I want to take the kids to the mall . I haven't given them gifts yet ." Just thinking about it made her heart ache a little .
If not for running into Quincy at the mall , she would have already been home playing with her children . At the mention of Quincy , Baron chuckled . " Do you know how Quincy is doing now ? " Natalie hadn't cared much about Quincy , but seeing the look on Baron's face , she was suddenly curious . " How is she ? She must have been poisoned for sure . The question is whether she's awake now . If she has woken and knows Sharon tried to kill her ... I wonder what she'll think . And won't the police be after Sharon too ? " The thought made Natalie laugh a little .
Sharon seemed to be quite busy these days . And as if to prove her right , the sound of police sirens wailed outside just she finished speaking . Baron and Natalie exchanged a glance and both burst into laughter . " Come on , let's go home . Those two little rascals must be giving Yvonne a headache by now . " Baron knew his kids well .

" Baron called the driver back .
+10 Free Coins The man drove steadily , saying nothing , but Natalic still felt her cheeks burn . She could barely show her face . And it was all this man's fault . Her face looked calm , but her fingers pinched hard into the soft flesh at Baron's waist . " Ow ! Wife , that hurts ! " His pitiful begging made her laugh . She let go of his waist , only to have her hand caught and held tight in his warm palm the next moment . His hands were dry , firm , and warm , filling her with a strange sense of safety . " Get some sleep . I'll wake you when we're home .
" Baron knew he had lost control earlier , but with Natalie , he truly couldn't help himself . Natalie was indeed tired . She didn't resist , simply rested her head against his shoulder . His familiar masculine scent surrounded her , and before long , she drifted off to sleep . " Drive slower . Keep it steady , " Baron ordered quietly . The driver eased the speed to a smooth forty , keeping the ride as gentle as possible . Meanwhile , Quincy awoke under the doctor's care .

" " Hello , Quincy .
We're with the police . Do you remember fainting at the mall ? " One officer sat beside her . +10 Free Coins Quincy nodded , though uneasily . She had collapsed - what did that have to do with the police ? " Is there a problem ? " The officer studied her condition before replying .
