Echoes of a Forsaken Heart novel Chapter 207

Hearing Natalia's scream, Hamilton only then felt a sharp pain in his arm.

He grabbed the man's wrist and disarmed him of his dagger in a swift motion.

"Who gave you the guts to lay a finger on her?" A cold fury spread in Hamilton's eyes.

The man's face turned pale, "Hamilton, do you have any idea who I am?"

Hamilton let out a cold laugh and drove the dagger into the palm of the hand that was just holding Natalia, eliciting a scream that echoed through the restroom.

Even those outside the restroom were shocked by the scene.

Thalia, standing nearby, turned even paler with fear.

Hamilton tossed the man aside and then turned to Thalia.

"I recall giving you a warning."

Thalia's voice trembled.

"Mr. Fowler, do you have any idea what's become of Eveleen? She's practically losing her mind. Yet, even in her state, she keeps saying you'd protect her! Mr. Fowler, what did Eveleen ever do to you for you to lock her up in a mental institution over some home wrecker? She cries her eyes out every day!"

Mentioning Eveleen visibly unsettled Hamilton.

It was pretty clear by now.

Thalia's visit today was obviously instigated by someone.

Thalia, never the brightest bulb, was likely genuinely upset on behalf of her friend.

But her actions were beyond just expressing discontent.

Hamilton's expression darkened, "Thalia really loves being a pawn, doesn't she?"

With that, he shoved Thalia aside.

Caspian Spiegel rushed in from outside.

Seeing Caspian, Thalia seemed to find her last hope.

"Uncle Cas, please save me, it's all because of this wench,"

"Shut up!"

Caspian's normally gentle face was now covered in frost.

Then, he turned to the door, "Take her away, hand her directly to the police!"

Upon hearing this, Thalia panicked, "Uncle Cas, I'm your niece!"

Caspian ignored her, kicking the man who had already fainted from pain. He was a new recruit from the Foreign Affairs Department, somehow entangled with Thalia.

"And this one too, take him away. To dare commit such acts here, utterly lawless!"

Several people came in and took them both away.

The restroom entrance was crowded.

Thalia's cries echoed down the hallway.

Caspian frowned and headed outside.

Natalia, after a moment of silence, approached Hamilton, "Let's get that wound treated."

Hamilton grabbed her wrist, "Did you get hurt anywhere?"

Natalia shook her head, "No."

Hamilton frowned deeply, "Natalia, about this situation—"

Natalia cut him off, "Let's take care of that wound first."

Hamilton looked at his empty palm, feeling a mix of anger and bitterness.

Exiting the restroom, Collin also rushed over, checking Natalia for injuries, "Are you hurt?"

Natalia quickly reassured, "Mr. Collin, I'm fine."

Collin, relieved to see she was unharmed, soon became furious again.

"This is outrageous, to dare do such a thing here!"
