“I know. Stop talking and just take it easy.” Natalie closed her eyes, her lips curling into a bitter smile. She couldn’t believe she was on her way to the hospital yet again! How incredibly “lucky” of her. The pain took over shortly, and before she knew it, she had already fainted.

When Natalie opened her eyes again, she was already lying snug on a hospital bed. An infusion needle was attached to the back of her hand. Thankfully, she felt much better now.

She turned her head to find Draco sitting at her bedside and reading the day’s paper. A slight breeze blew in through the window, lifting the corner of the newspaper, distracting him for a moment. He flipped the paper down and saw Natalie staring at him.

“You’re awake,” Draco said lightly.

“How are you feeling?” Natalie blinked at him for a few seconds as she tried to process the situation.

“Aren’t you supposed to be in Milan, Sir?”

“I booked another flight,” Draco replied nonchalantly.

“It’s still early, anyway. We still have time. Don’t worry about anything else besides yourself for now. Are you hungry? I’ve asked my family chef to prepare something and send it over.”

“Oh, that’s too much trouble, Sir. You shouldn’t have bothered.” A smile lit up Draco’s face, stunning Natalie speechless.

She realized then that this man had what some would call an ethereal beauty. And he had the personality to match, too. Despite his strict side, he was always kind and courteous to everyone. Natalie briefly wondered if anyone would ever be able to peel back his layers and truly know him. Draco shifted his attention back to the newspaper. When he spoke again, his voice had turned an octave lower, and his words caught her off-guard.

“You should call your husband. He probably has no idea that you’ve been admitted to the hospital.”

“Oh,” Natalie exclaimed before scrambling for her phone and sending Sebastian a message. Sebastian came over as soon as he received it. He strode into the ward, only to be greeted by the sight of his wife in deep conversation with Draco.

Natalie had a bright smile on her face. Why was she smiling like that to another man?
