Chapter 436 You Are My Priority
“That’s impossible,” Samuel responded with his fingers tensed. “Scarlett tried to harm Natalie, so
regardless of whether her family wants to back her up or not, I’m not letting her off the hook. Those
greedy Hamiltons must be out of their minds if they think they could gain my favor by merely giving up a
pawn!”
“I understand, Mr. Bowers,” Billy replied.
“Go then.”
After that, Samuel went back in, lifted Natalie’s blanket, and proceeded to lie down beside her.
Natalie’s waist was very soft. Her body was warm while her hair smelled of herbs, and Samuel could not
help but pull her closer into his arms to revel in that fragrance.
Even though it was not the first time he hugged her, Samuel could still feel an indescribable stir from
deep within whenever he did.
“Good night,” he said to Natalie, who was sound asleep, before closing his eyes.
The next day, Samuel was no longer beside her by the time Natalie woke up.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNatalie rubbed her eyes and spotted him sitting on the couch at the side, reading documents from the
company.
His facial features were prominently outlined under the golden shine of the morning sun and looked
exquisite.
“Why are you going through documents this early in the morning?” Natalie furrowed her brows and
asked.
“I had quality sleep sleeping beside you. So by seven o’clock, I couldn’t go back to sleep even if I wanted
to. Thus, I decided to go through some documents,” Samuel said with a magnetic voice while he put
down the documents. “You can go and wash up. Breakfast should be here any minute now.”
After Natalie was done freshening up, there was a knock on the door.
Knock. Knock.
“I’ll open the door.” Natalie slipped into her slippers and headed to the door.
When she opened the door, she saw Billy standing there with an anxious expression. He wore a tense
frown and looked as though there was something urgent that he needed to report to Samuel.
“Ms. Nichols?” Billy did not expect Natalie to be the one opening the door, so he was a little stunned.
Hearing that, Samuel immediately headed over.
His gaze turned cold when he noticed that Billy came empty-handed. “Where’s breakfast?”
“I haven’t bought it yet,” Billy answered.
“Go buy it then. No matter how urgent things are, breakfast comes first,” Samuel ordered with a straight
tone.
“Yes, sir.”
After that, Billy closed the door and went to get breakfast for Samuel and Natalie.
Back in the ward, Natalie gave Samuel a stare and said, “To be honest with you, you could have just let
Billy do his report before sending him off. What if it was something serious? You could be wasting a lot of
valuable time during the wait.”
“Getting breakfast for you is more important,” Samuel responded with a straight face. “I’m sure you didn’t
eat well for the whole month. Look at how thin you’ve gotten. Now that I’m back by your side. Keeping
watch and making sure you eat is my top priority. I don’t mind making a few million bucks less.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNatalie’s jaw dropped when she heard that.
I’ve expected this much, but it’s still such a huge flex.
Samuel finally turned to Billy after Natalie had some food in her stomach. “Now, Billy. Tell me about the
urgent matter you wanted to report to me.”
“Mr. Bowers, I just got the news that Scarlett is currently in a coma. They say that she tripped and
knocked herself out cold while wandering around after getting kicked out of her family.” Billy paused
before continuing, “She’s still in critical condition right now and might go into a vegetative state even if
they manage to rescue her.”
What?
Natalie froze.
That’s quite a coincidence for something to happen to Scarlett at a time like this. Does Yara have
anything to do with this?
Natalie figured that it was only natural for the Hamilton family to disavow Scarlett after what she did, but
that did not give Yara the right to murder her for no reason.
She shouldn’t die like this.
At that moment, Natalie lost all her appetite. “Which hospital is Scarlett in right now, Billy?” she asked
immediately.
