"Natalie, I once fantasized about the days after you woke up. I fantasized that I could explain the misunderstanding clearly with you, and I hoped that you would understand." "I dreamt that I would throw you a big wedding, and I would bring you and Hayden around the world." "You once toldthat you wanted to try all kinds of delicacies. After the wedding, I will be able to fulfill this wish." "Despite all of that, I'd forgotten the most important thing. I'd forgotten that you wouldn't forgiveat all." "Natalie, I didn't expect you to hateso much. You would rather end your life than be with me." "From this moment onwards, I will set you free." The final sentence was written so strongly that Natalie could feel it through the paper. It was obvious how agitated Tobias had felt when he was writing it.
Natalie felt as though she was in a trance.
Two days ago, she wanted nothing more than to be free, and she didn't want to be constrained by Tobias.
But now, after all that had happened, instead of feeling happy, there was a certain sourness that she felt. Cecilia held Natalie's hands tightly. "Natalie, Tobias will not force you anymore in the future. Don't do anything stupid. Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about Hayden. He's still so young, how can you bear to let him lose his mother?" Natalie's thoughts were convoluted.
After a long time, she asked in a low voice, "Where's Tobias?" "He's gone." "Oh," Natalie said.
All of a sudden, her heartache intensified.
After everything that had happened, Tobias had just left. It looked like he'd finally given up on her.
Well, she was finally free.
She'd finally got what she wanted.
The corners of Natalie's mouth curled, but she found that she could not smile.
Later in the afternoon, Natalie's state of mind had improved.
She looked at Cecilia, who had been helping her, and she felt a sense of guilt.
"Auntie, you don't have to take care oflike this," said Natalie.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe was in the VIP ward. Even without Cecilia, there were nurses who would take care of her.
"Natalie, I want to take care of you myself. It has nothing to do with Tobias. Don't think too much about it," Cecilia replied. Natalie lowered her voice and said, "Auntie, you also have your own things to do. You don't have to waste your there." Cecilia said bitterly, "Natalie, the reason why you are like this is because of Tobias. I should take care of you." Natalie's eyelashes trembled slightly.
She clutched her hands tightly. "It has nothing to do with him. It's all my own doing." The reason why Natalie'd stabbed the dagger into her heart was because she was too impulsive.
Cecelia changed the subject. "By the way, Natalie, I brought your phone withwhen you were first brought to the hospital. Someone called you earlier, but you were eating so I didn't tell you." She paused and continued, "It was one of your friends. I told them that you were in the hospital. I think it's a good idea for sfriends to visit you while you're here." Natalie's breathing hitched.
A friend called? Was it Sebastian or Yvonne? "Natalie, you won't blme for acting on my own, will you?" Cecilia glanced at Natalie.
It had been a subconscious action to answer the phone. Thinking about it now, Cecelia felt that she should have asked for Natalie's opinion first, instead of telling her friend about what had happened to land her in the hospital. Natalie forced a smile and said, "It's okay. Auntie, you did it for my sake." Not long after Cecilia told Natalie about this matter, Yvonne and Sebastian arrived.
After they entered the ward, Cecilia left quietly.
Upon seeing Natalie's current state, Yvonne looked as though she was about to cry.
Sebastian was a man after all, and he would be a little more reserved, but he looked worried.
The moment when she saw Sebastian, Natalie instinctively felt anxious.
She was afraid that Tobias would do something irrational if he were to find out that Sebastian had cto visit.
Then, her heart skipped a beat.
She was thinking too much.
As Tobias said, she was free.
He had always been a man of his word.
After all, he'd even managed to leave while she was still in the hospital. This showed that he'd already removed her from his heart.
"Natalie, what happened to you? I just asked the doctor and he said that a dagger was plunged close to your heart. Who hurt you? I will never forgive them!" Yvonne spoke rapidly.
Natalie was at a loss for words.
She said in a low voice, "I stabbed myself." Now it was Yvonne's turn to be speechless.
She touched Natalie's forehead and said, "Miss Godfrey, you're not having a high fever, are you? Why'd you stab yourself for no reason?" There was a bitterness in Natalie's eyes.
Sebastian, who was standing at the side, stiffened as well.
He asked with an awkward expression, "Natalie, is it because of that person?" Upon hearing Sebastian mention Tobias, Natalie's heart ached even further. Yvonne suddenly becexcited when she heard Sebastian's question.
She looked at Sebastian. "Who is it? Who made Natalie stab herself?" Sebastian's expression was one of incomprehension.
Yvonne gave Sebastian's head a hard knock. "Hello, answer me!"
Sebastian was tall. Although Yvonne was wearing high heels, she stil could not match his height. She'd had I to stand on her tiptoes to reach his head. Sebastian rubbed his head in pain.
"Sebastian, tell me." Yvonne repeated.
Sebastian glanced at Natalie.
"Hey, don't look at Natalie. Tell me, I'll avenge her." "Yvonne, stop asking!" Natalie suddenly said.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHer face was ashen.
"Can you two go out first? I want to have a rest." After saying that, Natalie lay on the bed.
Yvonne and Sebastian looked at each other.
In the end, Sebastian pulled on the corner of Yvonne's clothes. "Yvonne, let's go.' Yvonne could only give Natalie another glance before following Sebastian.
Hearing their footsteps recede, Natalie suddenly opened her eyes.
A bitter smile suddenly appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Humans were strange creatures.
The one thing that she'd wanted was freedom and to escape from Tobias. Now that she'd gotten it, why wasn't she happy at all? Now that sheld for her from Tobias.
Natalie took a deep breath and tried to smile.
Well, she should be happy. She should be happy.
Sebastian and Yvonne walked out of the ward.
Yvonne grabbed Sebastian's ear and said, "You nerd, hurry up and tellwhat exactly do you know and what you and Watalie are hiding from me." S'a'ch Th" F÷[email protected]'t website on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality. Sebastian did not hide anything from Yvonne.
He told Yvonne everything that had happened in the past two days.
Yvonne's heart skipped a beat.
It turned out that Natalie, stabbing herself with a dagger, had something to do with Tobias.
However, it also had something to do with Sebastian.
