She saw many people. Their clothes were worn and tattered, their faces sickly and emaciated because of starvation.
Sbabies were also crying out of hunger.
A child pulled on his mother's hand and said, "Mom, I'm hungry. I'm so hungry." His mother stretched out her hand, which was so thin that it looked like it didn't have any flesh at all. She said, "My child, bite my hand if you're too hungry. Our food has been taken away by the official. We have nothing to eat anymore." Natalie was shocked.
She had never seen such a world before.
The voice continued to guide her.
"Natalie, continue to go forward." She did as the voice told her. After passing through a wall, she saw an entirely different scene as compared to just now.
It was overflowing with people, all of them large and fleshy, and they were all drinking and eating to their hearts' content.
The food and drink available to them were so much that they could not finish them at all; a majority of them ended up being thrown away.
"Those lowlifes should be starved to death. We won't give the food to those lowlifes to eat even if we have to throw it all away!" A fat man laughed smugly.
Natalie's hands were clasped tightly together.
She was filled with rage.
The male voice rang in her ear again, "Natalie, right now, you have a gun. You can kill these people with it and let the refugees on the other side of the city wall cin to eat the food. Will you do so?" There was a flash of hesitation in her eyes.
"Natalie, let's go back and have a look." She subconsciously turned around.
The first thing she heard was sobbing.
The boy who was complaining about being hungry had fallen to the ground; he had starved to death.
She froze in her tracks.
"Natalie, will you do it?" The male voice kept ringing in her ears.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"I will!" She suddenly shouted as she looked at the little boy who had starved to death.
The scene shifted, and Natalie now saw a girl.
A perverted-looking man was approaching her.
"Little girl, cplay with me." The man was about to tear away the girl's clothes. The girl begged piteously.
The man stripped the girl of her clothes and pressed his burly body into the girl's body.
The girl let out a cry of despair, which was a sharp contrast to the man's smug laughter.
She was about to rush forward to save the girl, but she couldn't move at all as if her body was frozen.
"Natalie, unless you kill him, you can't save that girl. Do you want to kill him?" The man's voice sounded faintly in her ear.
"I want to!" She shouted.
The scene in front of her suddenly disappeared, and she was back at the cave once more.
"Natalie, there is cause and effect in this world. If those people hadn't done such utterly heartless things, they wouldn't have lost their lives like that." "Natalie, if they don't die, maybe they will make more and more young girls suffer. These girls will suffer a fate worse than death, and they will live in pain for the rest of their lives." Natalie suddenly cto a realization.
She murmured, "Then they deserve to die, right? They will need to face judgement for what they did, right?" "Natalie, people get what they deserve. If they don't do such horrible things, will they suffer such a fate?" Her eyes trembled.
"Natalie, tell me, what pain do you still have?" What pain did she still have? Those words repeated themselves constantly in her mind.
"I don't have a father or a mother. I don't have a family too," she said after a while as a pearlsized tear rolled down from the corner of her eyes.
"Natalie, James is not your biological father, but the love he gave you was better than a biological father's. Such great love should be cherished, and about Madison," the male voice paused before continuing, "Tell me, did you feel sad because your mother treated you so?" "Yes," Natalie replied softly. "Since she's not actually your biological mother, what's there to be sad about?" "Queenie and Brayden, too. They are not your biological siblings, so why should you let them bother you?" Her eyes immediately went wide.
It turned out that she was most hurt by the way her mother and siblings treated her.
However, she had just found out that they had no blood relation to her. They were just strangers so why should she be sad over them? "Natalie, tell me, what do you think your mother should be like?" Instinctively, Cecilia appeared in Natalie's mind.
She was a gentle and beautiful woman.
"A gentle woman who treatswell," Natalie murmured.
"Natalie, maybe your biological mother is actually such a person. People are brought into this world by their parents so why wouldn't you have them? Perhaps they are very far away and are concerned about you. Life is a long journey, you might be able to find them one day too." "Can I really find them?" She asked.
"Natalie, you can. I'll help you." It was a different voice speaking, a deeper and pleasant-sounding one.
It was Tobias' voice.
"Natalie, I'll becthe one who you can rely on," Tobias said.
Becoming the one whom she could rely on was definitely the most affectionate promise in the world.
Natalie's eyelashes were suddenly a little wet.
"Tobias, my life is like a joke," she said.
How could a person with her past be worthy of him? "Natalie, if your life really is a joke, then I'll be the only real thing in this joke," he replied.
"Then will you leaveone day?" Natalie asked.
"No, I will be with you until the end and I won't ever leave you, Natalie," he affirmed.
"Until the end? Until we grow old?" She asked again.
"Until we grow old."
A pair of hands suddenly appeared again in front of Natalie's eyes.
"Natalie, I'll lead you out," said a voice. S'a'*'h the FindNøvel. Bet website on Google to access chapters of early and in the highest quality. She took a deep breath and stretched out her hand.
Step by step, she walked forward.
She slowly opened her eyes.
Simon heaved a sigh of relief.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe effect of Natalie's psychological intervention was great.
"Natalie," Tobias whispered in her ear.
Natalie glanced at him but did not say anything to respond.
He was slightly anxious at this development.
He thought that Natalie would be able to speak once she woke up. It seemed that she still showed no signs of speaking.
Tobias walked over to stand beside Simon and said in a low voice, "Simon, what's going on? Why isn't Natalie able to speak yet?" Simon patted Tobias on the shoulder. "There's no need to be hurried. She needs sometime." Suddenly, there was a series of crackling sounds.
It turned out that it had started to rain.
The rain cso quickly and unexpectedly.
The whole city was still sunny a moment ago but it had suddenly started to rain.
A shiver coursed through Natalie's body.
She looked out of the window.
The rain was falling heavily.
She remembered a saying from when she was a child that rain represented holiness and purity.
As rain fell from the sky, it was therefore the cleanest thing in the world.
After a while, she suddenly stood up.
She ran downstairs.
Tobias and Simon hurriedly followed.
She rushed out of the Whitlock family's apartment and descended the building.
