Natalie was not the only one with a troubled expression.
“G… “ Shane spat the initial with gritted teeth and tightened fists.
He looked as if he was ready to kill.
Natalie felt his intense aura and she was quite astonished.
This is my problem, but why is he so agitated?
After informing them more about the situation, the police officer left.
Natalie looked at the time. Catching a sight of the darkened sky, she bolted up straight from her lying position. “Oh no, I haven’t picked up my children!”
“Don’t worry, I’ve already ordered someone to go pick them up,” said Shane. He smiled softly at her anxious but comical outburst.
“Someone has taken them home?” Natalie calmed down and looked at him.
“Yeah,” Shane grunted in reply.
Feeling reassured, Natalie let out a huge breath of air. “That’s great. It’s time for me to go back too.”
She wasn’t really hurt; she was just frightened. Since she was fine now, she didn’t need to stay at the hospital any longer.
Shane handed Natalie her clothes and jacket. “I’ll drive you home,” he offered.
Natalie was just about to reject him when he continued, “I need to go back too. I’ll give you a lift.”
If he put it that way, it would be impolite of Natalie to keep refusing him. She nodded and said, “Okay.”
After taking care of the discharge procedure, they walked over to the elevator.
As they approached, the elevator doors opened.
Noticing the person who was inside the elevator, Natalie froze.
“Jacqueline, why are you here?” Shane held out his arm to help her get out.
Jacqueline gently placed her hand on his outstretched arm and exited the elevator. “I heard from Jackie that Ms. Natalie was hospitalized, so I came to visit. I didn’t expect to run into you here. Have you been discharged, Ms. Natalie?”
