Chapter 246 I’ll Take You Home

Trembling hands accepted the small box, and in the next moment, he pulled it tightly into his embrace..

Holding her tightly, he tried hard to feel her heartbeat.

However, there was nothing

She was gone.

He was unable to feel it anymore, just like in his previous life.

Even after she had been saved from the fire, she couldn’t open her eyes.

“Nat…”

Holding the small box tightly, the pain in his chest suffocated him.

Why? Why did fate give him a chance, but it had to start from this moment, from… a time that was

similar

to his previous life.

He was powerless as he watched the flames before him, and the moment of despair began for him.

Why didn’t they give him a place to start that could prevent all tragedies? Why did they make him

endure such pain again?

Cedric’s heart resented heaven in hysterics.

If only he had been given one step earlier…

If it was the day before the fire…

If he had gotten his memories earlier, then these tragedies wouldn’t have…!!

It was too late.

Unfortunately, it was too late..

Two lives.

Things changed, people changed, but the tragic outcome remained unchanged.

“I’ll take you home,” Cedric sald with a choked voice after a long time.

Home.

Finally, they were going home.

When Stephen arrived at Red Wine Estate, the doctor was dressing Natalie’s wounds.

At a glance, he saw the hideous scars on her arm and neck and only a slight injury on her face.

But even so, Natalie had endured a lot of pain these past two days.

“Ouch!”

When the cotton soaked in medicine touched the wounds and the doctor gently cleaned them with

tweezers, Natalie hissed sharply.

Since her rebirth….

She had been a strong person, but tears overflowed uncontrollably at this moment

The man in a white coat looked at her with a gentle expression. He stopped to relieve her from the pain

for a while.

Then he spoke gently, “Sorry, it hurts a bit. Bear with it.”

“Yeah,” Natalie gritted her teeth.

But the next moment, a neatly folded tourniquet was handed to her.

“Your lips are bleeding.”

The implication was that if she couldn’t bear the pain, she could bite on it.

Natalie looked closer at the man in front of her for the first time.

“Thank you.”

Taking the neatly folded tourniquet, she bit into it, but it still couldn’t alleviate the pain in her body.

The man treating her was Jason Summers, the best burn specialist in Simeria.

Rumors had it that after he treated a patient’s burns and they underwent plastic surgery, the chance of

complete recovery was extremely high.

He was also the fourth son of the Summers family.

Due to his dislike of business, he went against his father’s financial profession and chose to study

medicine from a young age.

Moreover, there were more than twenty hospitals in Simeria. He was a solitary person and never did

The fact Jason was here and treating her showed how much effort Stephen had spent to find him.

“Ugh!” Natalie groaned in pain once again.

Cold sweat had already formed on her forehead.

Jason was a silent and reserved person. Because he had seen so many patients, he knew that some

pain

had to be endured.

But at this moment, a trace of darkness appeared in his eyes as he watched Natalie’s petite body.

continuously shiver.

He said, ‘You probably need to endure this pain for about a week‘

Natalie was silent.

A week?

Just listening to it made one’s chest tighten, and besides, this kind of pain wasn’t just for a few minutes!

Due to the large burn area and the fact that she couldn’t use many medicines now, the pain she had to

endure was even greater

“Why don’t you want to use anesthesia? The man handled her wounds while chatting casually, trying to

divert her attention.

And when asked why she didn’t want to use anesthesia, Natalie’s heart trembled.

The sweat on her forehead slid down again. Closing her eyes, she took a deep breath and said,

“Although

I didn’t want the child in my stomach, I think…”

At this point, Natalie paused. Evidently, she felt that she sounded ridiculous.

Even if it was ridiculous, so what?

“For the pain, I can bear as much as I can for the childr

After saying this, she felt the man stiffen.

She didn’t want to continue this heavy topic.

What kind of existence was the child to her?

She liked the child very much.

+15 BONUS

She loved them very much, but what could she do?

She couldn’t keep this child.

She wasn’t a good mother, but she wanted to try to be a mother who protected her child.

Even if it was just for a short month, a week, even a day…!

She hoped that during the time the child was in her body, they could suffer a little less.

“There are many ways to handle things in this world. You don’t have to solve it in such a painful way.”

The

man said in a deep and profound tore.

However, Natalie was stunned by Jason’s words.

There were many ways to handle things?

Was that really true?

For the child between her and Cedric, could there be other ways to deal with removing the child?

The two looked at each other in silence, and Jason carefully applied medicine to Natalie.

Natalie’s thoughts drifted away as if there was no pain on her wounds.

Until the end, she didn’t groan in pain again.

After it was over, Jason gave her a few more instructions before he left. The medical assistant who

followed him quickly packed up and followed.

Natalie looked towards the door and saw Stephen and Jason talking. Then, Jason nodded respectfully

and left.

Stephen looked at Natalie, who was already half–asleep.

Since being brought back, her body had been exceptionally weak. She basically spent most of her time

in

a deep sleep.

Seeing her awake at this moment, Stephen entered. In Just a short period, Stephen seemed to have

lost a lot of weight, but it didn’t diminish the noble and elegant aura he carried.

“Your aunt made some light soup for you. Jason said that paying attention to nutrition will help you.

“Uncle.”

When Natalie heard her uncle say this, tears welled up in her eyes.

It was true that Stephen had personally brought her back.

However, during this time, she had been unconscious due to so she had never faced

severe in

Stephen so clearly.

She hadn’t expected Stephen to come to Verde City to pick her up!

Before, when Cedric had caused her to be taken into custody, Stephen had never appeared.

But Stephen had rescued her from that big fire.

“Back then, did you want to die?” The man looked at her sharply.

At his words, Natalie remained silent, not responding

Then she lowered her head…!

Her silence added a heavier atmosphere to the entire room.

Stephen’s tone also became more somber. “By doing this, how do you think everyone around you

would.

feel? Or do you think it’s worth it for such a person?”

“Uncle… Natalie said in a heavy tone.

Tears swirled in her eyes as she tried to force them back. But the tears escaped and fell onto the

bedsheet.

No one knew how desperate she was in the midst of that raging fire, and no one knew that at that

moment, she had no thoughts about whether it was for Cedric.

She had accepted her fate.

The scalding heat and the moment the intense flames burned her skin reminded her of the outcome of

her previous life.
