“You should just be happy that I‘m not giving you the silent treatment anymore.”

Sebastian pursed his lips, managed to get up, and asked, “Did you sprain your ankle when you fell down from the stairs?”

Having heard the question, Natalie finally realized that she had been kneeling on the floor, but she didn‘t feel a single pang of pain since all her focus was on Sebastian.

“We should head back.” Sebastian helped her up, shot Lila a glance as she stood on the stairway, trembling.

“Come with us inside.” She thought it would be insane for her to walk back into the house with them after what she had done.

Just now, she was so furious that she wanted to kill Natalie. Perhaps this idea had been at the back of her mind for a long time, which compelled her to push Natalie. Now that she had come to her senses, she was so terrified. She caught up to Natalie and broke into tears.

“Oh, my God! Natalie, are you okay? Do you want to go to the hospital first? I didn‘t mean to hurt you.” Natalie didn‘t even bother to look at Lila. She just looked ahead and pretended like she didn‘t hear the latter. On the other hand, Sebastian shot Lila a cold glance.

“Cut the crap! Let‘s go inside.”

Because she was scared of him, she couldn‘t dare to disobey him. Thus, she eventually followed them into the house, albeit reluctantly.

Thereafter, Sebastian assisted Natalie to sit down on the living room sofa. Until now, Johanna and Beal hadn‘t left the house. They had just finished eating breakfast and saw Natalie hobbling back into the living room not long after going out. Thus, they were concerned about her.

“What happened, dear? Did you sprain your ankle or something?” Natalie didn‘t respond. She just glanced at Sebastian and then she lowered her head in silence. Meanwhile, Lila was standing at the door, staring right at Natalie as her heart raced.
