They were all aware of his aversion to physical contact "Master, feel free to set her down here. We'll tend to her needs." The men's leader said, but Natalie chose to ignore him and continued approaching the automobile. "Get in the vehicle and head to Idris' mansion (the men's leader's name)." Taylor gives the doctor a call and requests that he arrive at the mansion immediately." Alice was tightly clutched in Natalie 's arms as he got into the automobile and gave an icy instruction. Everyone moved quickly to avert the boss's wrath, and Taylor called the Hawthorne family physician after that.~~~~~ Ace's Estate ~~~~~They all arrived at the mansion in less than thirty minutes, standing at a designated space within the city, Swiftly stepping out of the driver's seat, Taylor unlocked the door and let Ace inside. With the girl still unconscious, Natalie gets out of the car and carries her inside the mansion, where the doctor is waiting for him. "Whatever became of her, master? Is she no longer alive? Were you able to murder her?" Terry, the physician, inquired as Ace approached him. Terry shrank in size as Ace shot him a chilly look and left the room to enter the mansion. Terry followed the master right away, hoping he wouldn't need to bring a corpse back to life. Natalie came into the room next to him, moved to the bed, and gave the unconscious Alice a harsh shake, in bed. Natalie said, "Get her treated, make sure she is alive when I come back," and then he left the room and entered his own. Terry gives the door a long, scowling look before turning to the person clinging to the bed. He checks her body and face before administering care.Following fifteen minutes, "Why did he have to call me all the way here when he could have just given her some basic First Aid? Stupid! He really is a handful. Terry was concerned because, after having drained the water from her body, she was still asleep. He was complaining and glancing at the volume of water on the ground. Three buttons on the side of the bed were pressed by him.

The moment the maids entered the room, they said, "I'm sorry to bother you, but please clean this place." The maids blushed when Terry mumbled to them, "Please change her clothes too. She has a toothy grin." He continued by gathering his belongings and leaving the room. The maids set to work right away, attempting to dress the woman on the bed and mopping the floor. "Who do you think she is?" As the other maids stared attentively at Alice's face, the first maid asked. "Andy, mind your own business. You wish to avoid getting into problems. After saying this, the second maid turned back to her cleaning. "Yes tell her, she likes doing what she wasn't sent." Additionally, the third maid rolled her eyes at Andy.

***** Living area*"What is her current state of health? Is she no longer alive?" When Natalie noticed Terry, with a big smile, coming down the stairs, he asked in a calm voice from where he was sitting. Terry shook his head and made the decision to gently tease Natalie after Ace changed into a house t-shirt and jeans, giving him a bad boy appearance. "She is dead and did not survive; she could not make it. I believe you arrived too late." Terry murmured, attempting to look serious with a grim frown on his face. "Well, that's satisfactory. Tell my men to take her body and place it in the outer garbage pile as you leave." Natalie answered in a serene manner before glancing at the economic news that was flickering on the television. "She survived, why are you acting so callous? Even if she had passed away, you might at least display some sympathy for her." Terry chastised Natalie on his callous demeanor. "Would you like a deduction made from your pay? Or would you rather become my shark's food? If not, please leave." Natalie did not look away from the television screen as he murmured in a detached manner. Terry let out several long sighs and then got up to leave, setting down a package of pills for Natalie to take before heading out.Natalie rarely touched others because he was allergic to being touched by anyone who wasn't a member of his family. She was essential to him. He was going to get a rash if he didn't take his medicines.~~~~~ The Mansion of Natalie ~~~~~"All I want is for the Ace I knew before to return to me; he can't live in grief for very long. I'm hoping he recovers quickly." As he left the Mansion, Terry murmured to himself. He got in his car and headed out to pass the time in a bar or club. After Terry had departed, Natalie took a quick look at the tablet that was resting on the table and gave it some serious thought. He beat himself up for being cruel to Terry, but he was unable to stop as the behavior was ingrained in his body. He picks up the tablet and pulls one out, popping it into his mouth to let the Champagne run freely down his throat before he drinks from his glass. He instantly began formulating a plan to discipline Alice for leaving a fifty-dollar piece of change on the bedside table. His phone rang on the table, jolting him out of his reverie as he was losing himself in his thoughts. When he noticed the name "father" flashing on the phone screen, he sighed and looked away. His eyes remained motionless for a short while before he said, "Yes, Dad." Natalie took the call in a monotone and then looked about to make sure no servants were hiding anywhere. "Have you successfully murder another person? Why is there a woman who was the fugitive bride of the Dennison family living in your home?" James said over the phone as he kept spinning his fingers while gazing at the towering seaside trees. "Dad, what do you want?" Why bother me? Enjoy yourself and your mother; nothing bad is happening." At his father's comment, Natalie mumbled a scowl and became icy in both appearance and eyes. His suppressed rage quickly surfaced.
