After hearing Kenneth's words, Fabian looked at him hesitantly.
“Mr. Hamilton, is this... appropriate?”
“Just do as I say.”
If this thing is the same as I've speculated, then it's time for me to bring this to an end.
When Fabian heard the determination in Kenneth's tone, he inclined his head. “I understand. I'll work on it right away.”
Just as he was about to leave, Natasha entered.
“Ms. Watson, it's been a while,” Fabian greeted with a smile.
Natasha curled her lips as she looked at him. “It hasn't been a long while; it's only been a few days.”
Fabian chuckled awkwardly. “You're fine, right? This is my fault. This happened because of my negligence. I didn't check it through properly, and it nearly hurt you.”
Natasha gave Fabian a glimpse before her eyes flitted toward the man on the bed. It was then she found out that they had been investigating the matter the entire time.
Finally, her gaze fixed on Fabian. “You were helping out. How can I say that this is your fault? In fact, I have to thank you.”
“No, no, I wouldn’t dare to accept that.” Fabian gave her a humble smile.
“Regardless of what kind of reason or goal you have, I'll still remember this favor of yours,” Natasha said.
She was a woman who would respond to kindness with kindness and grudges with a vengeance.
Even though Fabian was working for Kenneth, he had indeed helped out on the matter.
Fabian's eyes lit up. “Ms. Watson, it's my pleasure to hear that from you.”
He had to admit that he liked Natasha quite a bit.
She was smart and generous.
If she could still be with Kenneth, he would be climbing to the top of the pyramid in no time.
Just the very thought of it made him feel hopeful about his future.
At that moment, Natasha was smiling at him.
What a kind smile she has! Fabian lamented inwardly.
However, that was not a thought shared by Kenneth behind him. When he saw Natasha smiling at Fabian, he knitted his brows.
I rarely see that smile myself.
He picked up his phone and sent a message to Fabian.
Fabian was in the middle of a conversation with Natasha when his phone rang. He casually lifted the phone and looked at the screen.
Mr. Hamilton: Get lost right away.
Uh...
Fabian turned around to sneak a glance at the man on the bed and saw the warning look in his eyes.
Is he jealous?
Upon thinking about how he was chatting away with Natasha, Fabian figured out what was happening.
How can I possibly chat so much with Ms. Watson around Mr. Hamilton?
With that shocking revelation in his mind, he quickly looked away and said, “Ms. Watson, I have something else to work on, so I'll be going first. I'll leave... Mr.
Hamilton in your care.”
The sneaky actions that the two men were doing did not escape Natasha's attention.
However, she said nothing about it as she nodded at Fabian. “Okay, be careful on the road.”
After Fabian nodded back in response, he fled the scene.
He finally let out a sigh of relief as the door closed.
Mr. Hamilton's too jealous! Looks like I'll really have to keep a distance from Ms. Watson from now on, lest he murder me!
At that, Fabian patted his chest and hurried away.
Meanwhile, in the ward, once Fabian was gone, Kenneth ceased the menacing act and returned to normal.
Natasha walked over and sat on the side of the bed as she stared at him.
“What are you looking at?” Kenneth asked, feeling a little conscious. It felt as if she had seen through what he had just done to Fabian.
Natasha's lips curled. A moment later, she said, “Have you been looking into this all along?”
“Do you have a problem with it?” Kenneth asked.
