Chapter 141 What Happened To You
Even after Samuel had walked away, Natalie still had to cover her neck.
He did that on purpose! He just wants Shawn to notice it and realize that I belong to him!
Natalie knew that, but she couldn’t do anything about it.
The Bowers family was too powerful.
When Shawn spotted Natalie returning to the main hall, he walked over to her side again.
“Natalie, you…” Shawn sized her up. “What happened to your neck?”
It was not possible for Natalie to speak the truth, nor could she possibly remove her hand from her neck and let Shawn notice the hickey.
“My neck feels a little sore…”
“Are you sick? Should I call a doctor for you?”
“It’s not a big deal.” Something flashed across the depths of Natalie’s eyes as she swallowed her guilt and replied, “Mr. Watsons, it’s getting late. I should be heading back now.”
“All right. I’ll send you home.”
Upon thinking that she would need to continue covering her neck if Shawn was to send her home, she quickly rejected him. “It’s fine. I can go back by myself. Besides, the banquet hasn’t ended yet. Old Mr. Watsons has gone to rest, so you should stay to call the shots!”
Upon sensing Natalie’s determination, Shawn could only respect her wishes and stop insisting.
“I’m leaving.”
“Okay.”
As he stared at the back of Natalie’s silhouette, affection flashed across Shawn’s eyes.
He had only just parted with her, but he was already looking forward to their next meeting.
The moment Natalie left the chaotic hall, she quickly put down her tired hand.
Samuel likes biting people so much. It serves him right to be called a jerk!
Embarrassed and angry, Natalie only felt slightly better after cursing out Samuel in her mind.
