“When I was one year old, George and Lauren adopted me.But a year later, Cassie was bom.Since they had a daughter of their own, they stopped caring about me.Hannah was a maid in the Quinn family.She was the one who raised me.I was living with Hannah in the countryside before I grew up and came to the city.George and Lauren gave Hannah some money every month.However, that was not enough to meet our expenses. They didn’t bother increasing the monthly allowance.Hannah bought things for me with her money. She doesn’t have any family, and I have been taking care of her.She is all I have.Now, to make things worse, Lauren has secretly intercepted the liver for Hannah’s transplant.I don’t know how long it will take to find another donor.I don’t know how she is going to manage.”

Natalie sniffed, gasping for breath.

Sebastian pulled out a tissue from his pocket and handed it to her.

Seeing Natalie hitching with sobs, he pulled her into his arms.

“So you told me about your deal with them in a fit of anger?” Sebastian asked softly, his chin resting on her head.

He felt sorry for her.He had thought that Natalie was an optimistic carefree woman but didn’t think she shouldered a lot of burden and responsibilities on her own

“It was because they broke their promise.”

Leaning against his strong chest, Natalie frowned and complained like a child.Her answer amused Sebastian.

He hailed a taxi and pulled her inside.

Natalie hugged him tighter and pressed her face against the crook of his neck.

“Don’t worry!” Sebastian stroked her hair.

“I have a lot of friends.I’ll help you figure something.”

Natalie’s head became hot and heavy after all the crying.She felt sleepy.

Sebastian’s embrace comforted her.She rubbed her cheek against his chest and snuggled up to him.

Silence fell.

The ride was quiet, except for the whooshing of the wind.

“I’ve lying to you the whole time.Aren’t you mad at me?” Natalie asked, interlacing her fingers with his.

‘How could every part of his body look beautiful?’ She looked at the blue veins running across his muscular hand in awe.

Sebastian let her play with his hand as he watched her intently.

The flickering light cast a soft glow on his face.

He put his other arm around her shoulder and sighed.

“When I found out that you deceived me, I was furious.But later, I was simply glad that I didn’t marry Cassie. Fortunately, it was you”
