Chapter 838

: The Right To Say Sorry
The next morning, Natalie appeared before Gu Mengmeng.
Gu Mengmeng was momentarily taken aback by her sudden appearance.
Natalie now looked much healthier. Perhaps the regular mealtimes over the past few days, as well as Peter’s
attentive and elaborate
care had improved her vigor.
Although still very thin and frail, she no longer looked like she could die any second.
Natalie kept stealing glimpses of Elvis from the corner of her eye, as if she wished to speak with him. But Elvis maintained a
stay away from me
, cold and remote attitude. Hence, even after Natalie had gathered up her courage several times, she still dared not approach Elvis in the end.
Sighing, Natalie focused her gaze back on Gu Mengmeng.
Peter promised to bring me along to seek out the antidote for Chixuan. Although it will be difficult, I will supervise him to ensure he succeeds.

Gu Mengmeng tilted her head as she looked towards Peter. He looked rather uncomfortable, obviously… searching for the antidote was just bullshit.
He was just creating an opportunity to lead Natalie away from here, to start life anew. Somewhere where they could live together without misunderstanding and troubles.
He was just trying out another method to have Natalie stay by his side?
But…

Winter is coming soon after the rainy season ends. Isn’t it too dangerous for you two to go finding the antidote now?
Gu Mengmeng was rather worried. Peter might be a fifth-level beast with plenty of battle experience. But even the most powerful beast was just an insignificant speck in the great outdoors. How could he alone overcome the harsh chills and food shortage that the winter season would bring? Setting off at this time was not the wisest decision.
Natalie’s eyes shone with bitterness.
I know it will be tough. But I wish to quickly get the antidote. Only by saving Chixuan will I even gain the right to say sorry…

Natalie’s gaze drifted over to Elvis again only to see that he was completely unmoved. It would be untruthful to say she was not disappointed by Elvis’ total disregard of Peter and her, but given Elvis’ childhood experiences, it was not unreasonable for him to refuse to forgive her. She needed a chance to make amends. She needed to do something for Elvis, so that she would not die from a heart wrecked by guilt.
Peter knew this, and was willing to go along with her on this fool’s errand.
Since he would be by her side, he could conjure up whatever facts he wanted regarding the so-called antidote. He naturally had his own ways to make her follow him, and navigate within a safe boundary that would also satisfy her needs.
Gu Mengmeng didn’t say anything more. After all, this was their own domestic affair. They had the right to decide how to live their own lives. She had already done all she could.
At noon, Gu Mengmeng and company, as well as Natalie and Peter left the stray beast camp together. They parted ways at the spot where Peter had attacked them for the Kiss of the Ocean.
Before separating, Gu Mengmeng suddenly placed her hand on Elvis’ shoulder. Frowning, she turned to look at Peter.
Previously, Elvis suffered a serious injury to his shoulder. Was it you who bit him?

Peter froze as he instinctively turned to look at Natalie. As expected, he was met by a pair of fuming eyes.
Without thinking, Peter shook his head vigorously. But Gu Mengmeng didn’t give him any chance to defend himself.
Elvis is a fifth-level beast. I don’t believe that apart you, there is any other beast here who could injure him in this way…
