My Heart only Beats for You (Natalie Godfrey) novel Chapter 152

"He has a way to deal with them?" Simon raised his eyebrows, feeling doubtful.

Benjamin grinned, "Mr. Moore, being a gentleman is only one characteristic of Mr. Whitlock. You haven't seen his brute and vicious side."

Simon's eyes glimmered with interest.

A moment later, Tobias walked out.

His face was expressionless.

"Go in and ask your questions," He said to Simon.

Simon walked in. To his surprise, the men who were busy mocking him and laughing at him like a group of rowdy ruffians before were all sitting quietly with a frightened look on their face.

No matter what Simon asked, they gave it all up.

Simon soon understood what had happened before Natalie passed out.

In the evening, Simon came out.

Unlike before, he came out with a heavy face.

Tobias' gaze fell on Simon's face; his breathing unconsciously carrying a hint of anxiety.

"Tobias, Miss Godfrey didn't suffer from any inhumane treatment, but she almost got r*ped. She managed to escape by passing out before the men could do anything," Simon said in a solemn tone.

This was within Tobias' expectations.

When he carried Natalie in his arms in the basement, he had already taken a quick look at her. He did not notice any signs of s*xual assault at the time.

Simon went on, "It's clear that Miss Godfrey isn't unconscious from physical injuries, but rather she has suffered severe psychological trauma. According to what the men told me, it doesn't seem like that alone would constitute the severity of her current situation."

"Then what's the reason?" Tobias' heavy gaze fell on Simon's face.

Simon hesitated for a moment, "I suspect that this incident brought up a deep-rooted memory inside Miss Godfrey. She has likely suffered from s*xual abuse before, and this incident has triggered that memory. Her mind had buried that memory deep inside her as a coping mechanism. When the kidnapping occurred, it's likely that her brain shut down in order to make sure that she doesn't remember the incident."

There was a long silence.

Tobias' body tensed up.

Natalie had been s*xually assaulted before?

But she gave her first time to him.

There was no way she had s*x with someone else before, given that she bled on their bed and with her unfamiliar moves.

What did Simon mean?

"Simon, what should we do now?" He said after a long while.

Despite everything, the priority now was to get Natalie to wake up. It wouldn't be good for her to be in a coma for too long.

Simon frowned deeply. After a while, he said, "Tobias, if Miss Godfrey doesn't wake up soon, her situation might worsen. In the worst case, she might never wake up. I'd like to try something risky."

Tobias' breathing came to a halt.

Simon continued, "I would like to try to awaken her buried memories, and stimulate her with them. She might wake up from the trigger. However, I should warn you that it’s risky, and there's a chance that she might severely affect her brain."

His breathing turned a little rapid.

"Tobias, what do you think?" Simon's eyes were fixed on Tobias. "We're not going to solve anything by waiting."

Tobias fell silent.

"Give me some time to think about it," he said after a while.

Simon nodded.

Tobias then went to the hospital.

Because Natalie was merely unconscious and did not suffer any physical injuries, she was moved out of the emergency room and into an in-patient ward.

Her frail figure laid on the bed. The pale white sheets highlighted her fair skin and her ink-black hair.

She looked like a sleeping beauty.

Tobias stood by the bed and stared at Natalie for a long time.

He recalled how she behaved before this had happened.

Although she was a little self-abased, in general, she was an optimistic and cheerful girl, full of love and hope for life.
