Chapter 954 Angry At Himself

Natalie took her pulse again, and she was relieved when she found Yvette stable. After all, I’m the reason Yvette is in this situation. If she were to have permanent scars because of the allergy and lose her career, that’s something money can’t fix. I owe her that much. Now, I’ve already paid half of my debt.

Natalie stood up and started to remove the crystal needles from the acupoints one after another.

The crystal needles were the Bayers’ family heirloom. After she removed the needles, they returned to their silvery-white color again.

After keeping the crystal needles away, Natalie took out a bottle of snow cream she made and applied some to Yvette’s allergic spots. She then left the rest of the cream on the bedside table. While she was at it, she wrote a note and put it under the bottle before leaving.

The moment Natalie left Yvette’s ward, she saw a familiar figure.

That man was none other than Xander. He was fully armed and all covered up.

“You’ve been here all along?” Natalie murmured.

“Yes.” The man nodded and asked, “How is everything?”

“I’ve already treated Yvette’s allergy, and she’ll fully recover in a few days’ time. The itchy spots she had before this won’t leave scars behind,” Natalie explained in a serious tone.

The man then narrowed his eyes and asked, “Did I ask about Yvette?”

“Huh?” Natalie was stunned.

The man said in a hoarse voice, “I was asking about you. How about your leg? Did the wound open up again?”

Natalie didn’t expect the man to care about her instead of Yvette, and she felt touched. However, she was also overwhelmed by an inexplicable wave of complicated feelings.

“You don’t have to care about me.” Natalie didn’t want to dwell on those feelings, and she purposely averted her gaze.

An unpleasant feeling stuffed up Samuel’s chest as well. “If you can take good care of yourself, I wouldn’t need to be concerned. Unfortunately, you haven’t done that, so don’t blame me for intervening.”

As soon as those words fell, Samuel bent down and put his strong arm behind Natalie’s legs before lifting her up domineeringly.

“Let go of me!” she exclaimed.

“I’m not letting go.”

Natalie tried to struggle her way out of Samuel’s arms.

Alas, even if she wasn’t injured, there was no way she could overcome Samuel’s strength.

“Let go of me, Xander!”

Samuel replied impatiently, “I won’t. If I were you, I would rather just stay still and not fight back. After all, it’s not like you’re getting out of this. Wouldn’t you only hurt yourself the more you try to resist?”

“You!”

Underneath the mask and goggles, Samuel was pursing his lips.

He was also in a bad mood because he was angry at the fact that Natalie had once again risked her life doing things she thought were right when he wasn’t around.

Despite how angry he was with Natalie, he was more pissed off at himself.

Even though I’m right in front of her, I can’t even show her my face. I have no choice but to help her sneakily. I can solve all the problems just by taking off my mask and goggles. However, I can’t! I can’t bring myself to do that. I can’t give her hope. Once I’ve done that, what am I supposed to do half a year later? What is she supposed to do by then?

Samuel hugged her tight and once again brought her into the empty ward.

Without saying a word in advance, he rolled up her trousers and saw blood flowing out of the part that had just been sewn.

Natalie saw it as well, but she was unfazed. If she was given another chance, even if she knew the sutures would give way, she would still choose to treat Yvette with her crystal needles.

At the same time, Samuel’s heart ached when he saw the blood on the wound.
