Chapter 831
Natalie slept for three days and three nights straight in the hospital ward.
When she was still in a coma, she even dreamed that Samuel no longer wanted her.
It was a very blurry and fragmented dream. All Natalie could see was Samuel's back when he left.
However, she knew very well that it was merely a dream.
After all, Samuel was the last person in the world who would abandon or betray her.
When she opened her eyes, the first thing she saw was the white ceiling. Following that, the pungent smell of
disinfectant drifted into her nose.
Evidently, she was in the hospital. What she saw earlier was just a nonsensical dream.
Now that she had woken up from the dream, there was no need to concern herself over it.
Natalie moved slightly, but the pain was so great that she gritted her teeth.
Five little children immediately surrounded her when she moved.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Mommy!”
“Mommy!”
“Mommy!”
The five adorable children gathered around her and called out for her at the same time.
It was Natalie's first time seeing Franklin, Clayton, Xavian, Sophia, and Yumi after escaping the brink of death.
Although she was glad, she soon realized how poor a mother she was.
Not only had she left her children behind, but the thought of what would happen to them if she died did not even
cross her mind during that moment of danger.
“Aren't you supposed to be at Great-grandpa's house? Why are you here?” asked Natalie with a frown.
Actually, she did not wish for the five children to be there.
Considering how much the kids loved her, they would definitely have cried after seeing her in that state.
“It's been too long since they last saw you and Samuel. Since they couldn't contact you by phone, they kept
pestering Old Mr. Bowers. He initially lied to them, but naturally, he could not deceive them for long. Eventually, the
lie was exposed, and he had no choice but to be honest with them,” explained Justin.
He continued, “After finding out about your situation, the five of them couldn't possibly stay idle at home. Left with
no choice, we could only send them here. Luckily, they're very obedient. They did not kick up a fuss in the hospital
ward and kept you company for two days.”
“Two days?” repeated Natalie. “Justin, how did they eat and sleep in this hospital ward?”
“When they were hungry, I'd just bring some food from the cafeteria for them. They slept on the hospital beds and
couches at the side.” Glancing at the five children, Justin continued, “Initially, I was worried that they'd be too noisy
and affect your rest. But they were very obedient. They'd take turns keeping you company and even summon the
doctor over to change the IV drip or wet your lips using cotton buds.”
When Natalie heard that, she stared at the children's adorable faces as tears welled up in her eyes.
Life's tough, but with these five kids, I feel so happy and fulfilled.
“Mommy, do you want to eat anything?” asked Sophia sweetly. “If you want to eat something, I'll call Mr. Gavin and
ask him to cook it!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I do,” replied Natalie with a smile. “I'd like to have some strawberries, mushroom soup, prawns, and coke.”
“You can't drink coke!”
“You can't drink coke!”
“You can't drink coke!”
“You can't drink coke!”
“You can't drink coke!”
Natalie was speechless.
She just wanted some coke, but she did not expect the five children to oppose it unanimously.
However, she knew clearly that they were just concerned about her, given that she was injured and coke had no
nutritional value. Hence, she did not insist. “I won't drink coke. I'll have some orange juice instead. But... can you go
home first? After you've packed everything I need, you can visit me tomorrow.”
After noting down everything that Natalie wanted, the five kids nodded.
Justin instructed his subordinate to send the five kids back to the Bowers residence. He also reminded the
subordinate that the kids were all extremely important and must not be in any danger.
