Chapter 462
“Hello?”
“Is this Natalie?” a man’s arrogant voice asked from the other end.
Natalie frowned. “This is she.”
“Perfect. Colin made a bet with us and lost, but he can’t cough up the million dollars he owes. He wants you to come bail him out. Bring a million dollars to rescue Colin. If you don’t, I’ll break his arms and his legs and make him a cripple for life.”
Natalie’s brow furrowed. It was Colin Scott.
Colin was no better than the rest of them. She wasn’t going to save him.
Natalie refused flatly. “I have no connection to the Scott family anymore. Whether you beat him or kill him is your decision.”
“Natalie, it’s Colin! You can’t just leave me to die! How can you be so heartless? We’re real siblings, related by blood. You can’t just abandon me.”
Colin’s furious voice came through the phone.
Natalie frowned. This hadn’t happened in her previous life.
In her past life, after Jared’s accident, Colin hadn’t returned until her birthday party, and he ended up in prison.
After he found out Joanna had taken everything, he tried to run her over, failed, and was sent to prison by Joanna. His end was tragic.
This time, she decided not to interfere. Respecting the destinies of others was the polite thing to do.
But why was this happening months earlier?
Had she changed the course of events from her past life?
Natalie scoffed. “Colin, when you need me, I’m your family. When you don’t, I’m some stray you picked up off the street. Why don’t you go find your real sister, Joanna?”
“She’s the one you all treasure. Have you forgotten everything you’ve done to me? Why should I come and save you?”
Colin let out a malicious laugh. “Natalie, I’m letting you come save me. That’s a privilege. Joanna is the precious lady of the Scott family. How could she come to a a place like s? You grew up in the countryside. You’re tough. You can take a few hits.”

Natalie laughed, but it was a laugh of pure bitterness. So that was it.
That was how Colin saw her.
Her eyes filled with tears as if her soul had been ripped out. A pain as dark as ink enveloped her world.
She broke down in an instant. The agony on her face turned into tears that dripped onto the floor. She took a deep breath trying to suppress the torment inside, but the tears spilled from the corners of her eyes.
Why did these bastards have to trample on her dignity like this?
“Colin, you are truly rotten to the core. I’m not coming to save you, so stop dreaming.”
“Natalie, I’m ordering you to come
and save me right now. Bring a million dollars. I know you have money. If you rescue me I’ll let you come back to the Scott family. I’l acknowledge you as my sister.”
Natalie sneered. “Not interested. Who would want the bad luck of being your sister?
I was never your sister. I’m the one who’s come to collect your debt.”
“Natalie, why are you getting so angry? I called you a country bumpkin, so what? It’s your good fortune that I’m letting you rescue me.”
Colin was as arrogant and self-righteous as ever.
“You can keep that good fortune for yourself. Goodbye. Colin, I don’t care if you end up with broken arms and legs.”
As Natalie was about to hang up, she heard Colin shout, “Mr. Woodard, you have to get Natalie to come tonight! My sister is gorgeous.”
The name “Mr. Woodard” made Natalie pause. A thought struck her.
She asked, “Where is the address?”
