It had only been one night since Cedric left.
Natalie did have trouble sleeping last night. It felt cold enough that she asked Lydia to add another
blanket for her.
Despite that, she still felt cold.
It was as if the cold was emanating from the very marrow of her bones. As a result, she woke up this
morning feeling particularly uncomfortable.
Needles and intravenous drips...!
In the past, these were Natalie's biggest fears!
Every time Cedric brought her to the hospital, she would resist and make a fuss.
But now...!
"Don't be afraid," Irwin whispered softly by her side, but Natalie didn't feel anything.
She felt numb.
It was as if, after knowing Blair existed, Natalie had become a completely strong and independent
woman!
She had abandoned everything she used to depend on.
Irwin sensed the distance emanating from her.
As Natalie lay in the hospital, Irwin held out a cup and said, "Have some water."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe inserted a straw into the cup and held it up to Natalie's lips, but Natalie turned her head slightly.
"I'm not thirsty."
People said that when one had a fever and felt their whole body burning, there would be a sensation of
smoke in one's throat.
In such a situation, one would definitely want to drink water.
However, Natalie didn't feel that way now.
She felt cold.
The hospital blanket was thin. Coupled with the intravenous drip on her hand, her entire arm felt cold
and uncomfortable.
Irwin.
"Yeah?"
"I want to see Mr. Larkin..." Natalie said after thinking for a moment.
Her tone was calm. It didn't take a genius to guess what she wanted to do when she requested to meet
Edward.
Previously, when Cedric was around, he took her to see the doctor.
It was also Cedric who had handled all negotiations with Edward. So, Natalie was completely unaware
of the specific details.
Upon hearing this, Irwin was momentarily stunned.
"Why do you want to see him?"
Irwin was an intelligent man. When he heard Natalie's request, he probably already had an idea what
she wanted to do.
Cedric hadn't let her know much before.
"He's my doctor. Can't I see him?" Natalie said in a meaningful tone.
"Of course you can. But with your current condition, the hospital won't allow you to be discharged. Be
patient," Irwin responded.
"..."
"After you're discharged, I'll take you," Irwin added to reassure Natalie.
In fact, it was also a way to comfort Natalie.
She was unable to see anything, so she naturally couldn't see the serious glint in Irwin's eyes at this
moment.
Why didn't Cedric let Natalie know the details of her condition?
What was the reason?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWas it because the situation was much more serious than she could imagine? -
After Natalie fell asleep, Irwin had someone stay by her side. He also had someone bring Lydia over,
and it was clear he was being very meticulous.
Then, he went to see Edward.
Edward frowned when he saw Irwin. "Who are you to her?"
"I'm her husband!" Irwin said as if it was the most natural thing in the world.
"What about the gentleman from before?"
"Ex-husband."
Edward was silent and instantly confused.
A woman had both her ex-husband and current husband fretting over her like this?
It showed how important her eyes were...!
He sighed and said. "Just take medication for three months first, and we'll see how it goes from there."
Take medication for three months first?
At this moment, the renowned Edward couldn't provide a more reliable answer?!
"What happens after three months?" Irwin's tone deepened.
Yes, what would happen after three months?
Edward's gaze was sharp, and he stared at Irwin like a hawk.
