A cold shiver ran down Natalie’s spine as she recalled Ritchie’s face.

The handsomeness of his face was still there at that time, but there was no denying the fact that he looked like a personification of Satan.

“Sorry that you had to go through all that.I didn’t see your message on time because I was very busy.It won’t happen again.I’ll be quick to save you next time.”

Sebastian stroked her face absentmindedly.He was staring blankly with dim eyes.His mind was filled with thoughts at this time.

“I trust you.” Natalie hugged him tighter and inhaled his scent.

This was the only way she could get solace and a sense of security now that she was afraid.

Sebastian was her rock and she felt safe with him.

“Dearie, you have been through a lot today. You look so tired. How about I take you home so you can rest?”

Sebastian didn’t like seeing her in this weary state, so he wanted to take her home.

Natalie immediately sat up and looked in the direction of the ward.

Shaking her head, she refused, “I don’t want to leave now.There’s nobody by Laney’s side, so I want to stay.At least, until she wakes up.”

“Okay, that’s fine.”

Sebastian kissed her forehead and rested his chin on her head.He decided to respect her decision.

Natalie was indebted to Laney.She thought, ‘Laney saved my life again today. The least I can do is to stay here until she regains consciousness.

After staring at the closed door of Laney’s ward for a while, Natalie buried herself in her husband’s warm embrace again.

A few seconds later, Sebastian felt wet moisture on his chest.

He then heard a very faint sobbing.

Natalie was crying.

“I was so useless today. could do nothing but watch in horror as those men beat Laney.I don’t want to be in such a situation again.Sebastian, do you think I should start taking self-defense classes? At least, I will be able to throw some punches if anyone attacks me in the future.”

In Sebastian’s eyes, Natalie was the smartest woman in the world.
