Yeason fell silent and didn't say anything more after that.
Natalie nodded, her expression a little pained. "Alright." Then, she followed Yeason into the hospital as he led the way.
Remington was still lying unconscious in the emergency room.
Fortunately, he was quick to respond when the attack happened. Since his friends brought guns, he was not killed on the spot, and was even lucky enough to salvage his bitten arm.
However, he suffered a bad case of infection from the wound, and his life was at stake.
Natalie stared at the bedridden Remington through the glass, her eyes glistening with tears.
Next to her, Yeason explained, "Miss Godfrey, I'm now in charge of his company's affairs, and the hospital staff also take good care of him. Since you won't be able to talk to him anytsoon, how about-" "I will wait here until he wakes up," she cut him off.
Yeason nodded.
"Thank you for bringinghere. You should get back to work. I will do just fine here alone," she added.
With Natalie's assurance, Yeason went to the doctor and inquired about Remington's condition before he left the hospital.
Natalie stood outside the emergency room alone, her mind a tangled mess.
She never imagined such a terrible thing would happen to Remington.
If she had known, she would have definitely mustered everything in her to persuade him not to go.
She had hated him for what he had done to her when they were in the car previously.
But no matter how much she hated him for that, she would never wish anything bad on him.
She stood there for a few hours, staring at Remington's motionless body until her legs finally couldn't stand it anymore. Kneading her aching shoulders, she sat down on the bench nearby.
Natalie buried her face in her hands.
They must have been a couple in the past.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have risked his life to do such a thing for her.
She bit her lips so hard that it drew blood.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSuddenly, another man's face appeared in her mind.
Natalie huffed, digging her fingers deep into the flesh of her palm to cto her senses.
She hated herself for thinking about another man when Remington's life was in danger.
Sucking in a deep breath, she forced herself to stop thinking about that man.
A piece of her heart seemed to have fallen out, now gone forever.
Her relationship with Tobias had cto an end.
It ended as soon as it began.
Tobias did not see Natalie anywhere when he returned to the villa.
Selina told him about her earlier exchange with Natalie.
"Natalie said that she would not be htonight. I thought she was going to spend stwith you?" Tobias furrowed his brows.
Could it be that Natalie was having a night out with her friends? After all, ever since she moved into the villa, she had spent most of her twith him and Hayden.
After pulling out his phone, Tobias hesitated. In the end, he decided not to call her.
He would not want to bother her when she was having fun with her friends. Natalie deserved to sstaway from him. He decided to wait for her to chinstead. When the clock struck eleven, Tobias couldn't bear to wait any longer.
Even if she was out with her friends, it was getting a little late.
He dialed her number, but it went straight to her mailbox.
His brows knitted in worry as his heart skipped a beat.
Inexplicably, he had a bad feeling about this.
A second later, he persuaded himself that he was overthinking.
The two of them were on such good terms now. Besides, she also proved that she trusted him the night before. Things should be alright.
Instead, he asked Benjamin for Yvonne's number.
Yvonne was Natalie's best friend.
If she were to stay out until this late, she was probably with Yvonne.
Yvonne did not expect to receive a call from Tobias.
Even though she had her share of socializing in the entertainment industry, his sudden call made her nervous, and she was at a loss for what to say.
After all, Tobias Whitlock was hailed Prince Charming in her university days.
It was as if she had instantly traveled back in time.
As if she was sweet and innocent Yvonne again.
Those days were gone forever.
It turned out that Tobias wanted to know if Natalie was with her.
Yvonne was baffled. She had not made any plans with Natalie that night.
"Thank you. Sorry to disturb you." He hung up after the exchange, his tone polite and distant.
The beeping sound from the other end of the phone snapped Yvonne back to reality.
Was Natalie not with him? She was about to call Natalie herself when the phone in her hand buzzed urgently. It was Penney.
"I have good news for you, Yvonne," she cried excitedly from the other end.
"What good news?" Yvonne asked.
"Our series-the one you're shooting right now-was sponsored with an additional 100 million dollar budget!" Penney was close to shouting in her ears. Yvonne could imagine her grinning so hard it split her face. Yvonne's mouth gaped open. She was completely taken aback by the news.
A hundred million dollars! Was she hallucinating? She was given the role of the third female lead in a web series.
The reason an insignificant actress like her could score a role as the third female lead was that this was a low- budget web series. The total budget was less than five million, and somehow, it had just received an additional budget of a hundred million dollars to work with.
"That's excellent." Yvonne laughed, "I bet Finna is having a good gloat." Finna Lee was the lead actress of the web series.
She was considered a rising social media influencer, although she still was not as famous as others would think she was.
Even though she was an influencer, she was over-ambitious and considered this web series beneath her. In spite of this, her intefis of little use - the larger-scale productions that she looked up to wouldn't hire her either.
After accepting this web series role, she had always acted rudely and much like a brat since day one, complaining and expressing her discontent with the series. Many people on set could hardly stand her attitude. "Finna is going to cry her eyes out!" Penney exclaimed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmYvonne tilted her head, puzzled.
Why would Finna cry to death? The web series had just been transformed from a low-budget series to a one-of-a-lifetbig production overnight. She should be skipping around in glee.
"She was removed from the lead role. You'll be replacing her," Penney squealed out loud.
That moment, Yvonne swore her jaw dropped to the ground. Did she hear Penney correctly? After a while, she cto her senses. "Penney, please helpfind out which company is behind this investment." In fact, she did not even have to ask.
Penny's lips curled into a smile, announcing, "Ensign Entertainment." Ensign Entertainment was Jenkins's company.
Yvonne's breathing hitched.
Jenkins was willing to invest 100 million dollars in such an unpopular web series. It was definitely a gift from the heavens, almost too good to be true. Not to mention, she was also suddenly made the female lead of the series. Obviously, Jenkins was behind all this. He finally agreed to help her.
Yvonne's heart was pounding rapidly.
"Was... Was it Jenkins?" She asked.
Deep down, she already knew the answer, but she still needed to hear its confirmation from someone else.
Penney chuckled and replied, "You fool. You already know the answer. You've hit the jackpot, Yvonne." Yvonne's eyes glinted as she stared into distant space.
Filming didn't end until way past midnight. All the previous scenes had to be re-shot because of the change in the lead role.
However, no one on set had any complaints.
Now that the series received a gigantic jump in budget and recognition, everyone was overjoyed. Starch ThFind Nøvel. et website on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

Yvonne returned to the hotel after her shooting.
She did not feel tired at all. For her, this was an opportunity that fell from the sky and into her lap.
Exhilarated, her lips unconsciously curled into a grin.
She swung open the door and immediately froze when she saw someone in her room.
Jenkins stood there silently by the window.
His tall figure was as intimidatingly handsas ever, his clothes without a wrinkle, and his hair perfectly gelled.
When did he enter her room?
Yvonne paused for a moment before walking up to him and wrapping his waist, calling out sweetly to him. "Mr. Quartley. This man was her benefactor now, so she must please him at all costs. Hot Singles Are Looking For Deepen Older Men Bingles on CouldSee! Registration Is Free!
