Chapter 155
"But I want to leave, it's so boring here." Natalie pouted, twisting her fingers.
She hated being hospitalized.
The ward was a little different from an ordinary ward, looking super large and luxurious; even the bed was king- sized. However, it didn't change anything.
"Is it still boring even with me here?" Tobias said as his gaze fell on Natalie's face.
Natalie flushed red again. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
She wanted to leave quickly, not just because she hated being hospitalized, but also because of what Tobias said earlier. She didn't even dare to meet his gaze, and her heart was beating wildly.
Therefore, Natalie was in a hurry to leave to calm herself down.
"Don't you need to go to work?" She smiled dryly.
Tobias could see that Natalie was nervous because she was shy.
Under normal circumstances, he might tease Natalie, but since she had only just woken up, he wanted to go easy on her.
What's more, Simon's words were still lingering in his mind. He must find out what Natalie had encountered back then as soon as he can.
Tobias picked up his phone and clicked on his gallery. His fingers slid across the screen and several photos appeared in front of Natalie.
Natalie was taken aback. The pictures were the group of men with Qasim that day.
"These are the culprits, right? Did I miss anyone out?" Tobias looked at Natalie.
Hatred flashed in her eyes.
"Yes, that's them. I'll never be able to forgive them."
Thinking of what they almost did to her, Natalie felt furious.
Fortunately, they did not succeed, or she would personally slice them up.
"Where are they now?" Natalie said angrily.
"They have all been caught."
Natalie wanted to get out of bed, "I'm going to have my way with them!"
Tobias asked, "How do you plan on finding them?" Natalie paused midway of getting down the bed. She didn't consider that.
If they had succeeded in their assault, she would definitely kill them, even if it costs her her life.
But since they weren't successful, what should she do?
Natalie recalled the blonde guy who almost tore off her clothes.
There was a rising flame of hatred in her eyes.
She said sternly, "I'm going to tear up all their clothes!"
How dare they try to tear off her clothes? She was going to give them a taste of their own medicine.
Tobias' eyelids twitched.
"I'll take care of them. You just need to have a good rest," He said as he made eye contact with Natalie.
His expression and tone gave her a sense of comfort and security.
There was a gleam in Natalie's eyes.
She knew that this man would definitely help her settle it. Besides, she didn't know what to do anyway.
She was just letting off steam when she said she wanted to tear off their clothes. There was no way she would actually do that.
"Don't let them off easy, those a*sholes!" Natalie huffed.
"I know. Don't worry," With that, Tobias stood up. "Have a good rest now. I'll come in and accompany you later."
Natalie nodded.
After Tobias went out, Natalie laid back down on the bed. She felt a sudden burst of joy in her heart.
"Oh my, Tobias is being so gentle to me again. He is no longer cold to me. It feels so good."
He even told her she was his only woman!
The corners of Natalie's mouth couldn't help but curl up.
"I'm the only woman Tobias has slept with!"
"I'm the only woman Tobias has slept with!"
"I'm the only woman Tobias has slept with!"
Natalie clutched her chest. "No, no, I can't think about this anymore. If I think about it again, my heart is going to jump out of my chest."
Outside the ward, Benjamin arrived in a hurry.
"Mr. Whitlock, Qasim's arm has been broken by his father. He also took Qasim away forcefully."
Tobias frowned, "How could he take him away?"
Benjamin lowered his head, "Qasim's father used his military connections to bring in armed policemen. We didn't dare to stop him and he took him away."
A layer of frost covered Tobias' eyes.
Did Qasim's father think that this matter would be over just because he broke his son's arm?
"Bring Qasim back," Tobias' tone was extremely cold.
Benjamin hesitated for a moment, but still said boldly, "Mr. Whitlock, the Lawson family has sent for the military forces. I don't think we should push further. What's more, Qasim already had his arm broken. I think we should put an end to this matter here."
A man in such a position as Tobias had to consider the risks of every move he made.
Tobias could easily deal with the Lawson family, but there was no need to go overboard. After all, the Lawson family had gone so far as to ask their relative, who was a high-ranking military officer to intervene, saving Qasim.
Moreover, in order to apologize, Qasim's father personally broke his son's arm, and Natalie was safe and sound. Benjamin thought that the matter could be swept under the rug now.
Tobias shot Benjamin a cold look. "Since when have you decided you can make decisions for me?"
His voice was icier than the winter breeze.
Benjamin was stunned. After a while, he lowered his head, "I overstepped."
Tobias had not spoken to him in such a stern tone for a long time. It seemed that Tobias was really furious over this matter. Qasim was unlikely to come out of this alive.
In the evening, Natalie was discharged from the hospital.
Supposedly, she was to be discharged the next day, but under her persistent request, Tobias had to call in a doctor to check up on Natalie.
The doctor's conclusion was that Natalie was in perfect health.
Natalie proudly glanced at Tobias, as if she was saying, "I told you so."
Her expression actually made Tobias chuckle in laughter. He sent Natalie home.
After returning to the familiar apartment of the Whitlock family, Natalie felt as if she had been reborn.
Aunt Lee had dark circles under her eyes because she had been so worried about Natalie. She had
barely slept in the past two days.
She took Natalie's hand, "Miss Godfrey, I'm so glad that you're alright. You scared the hell out of me. Please don't let anything happen to you again."
Aunt Lee didn't know much, but she vaguely knew that Natalie seemed to have been kidnapped.
Natalie patted her chest, "It's okay. Aunt Lee, don't worry. I won't die so easily!"
Tobias took a deep look at Natalie.
This girl was so bold. How could she still be in such high spirits after going through such an incident?
As soon as she returned to the Whitlock family apartment, Natalie complained that she was hungry.
She basically survived off IV drips at the hospital, and her stomach had been grumbling for a while now.
During Natalie's absence, Aunt Lee was not in the mood to make anything to eat. There was no food prepared. She was about to go to the kitchen to cook, but Tobias stopped her.
"I'll do it."
He went straight into the kitchen.
