The Triplets My Ex Never Knew About novel Chapter 47

Chapter 47: Chapter 47: Nathaniel Sloan Isn’t Dressed

Estelle Lockwood thought she had misheard, her eyes widening. "...What did you say?"

Nathaniel Sloan’s gaze was so intense it felt tangible, sweeping over her face inch by inch. He spoke slowly, each word deliberate, in a hoarse voice.

"I said, Dr. Lockwood, give me a kiss, and I’ll help you deal with Noelle Lockwood."

Estelle Lockwood was stunned for two seconds, then abruptly took a step back. "Nathaniel Sloan, have you no shame!"

’Is he that shameless? I’m just his family doctor, and he’s just casually asking for a kiss! Is he even human?!’

Nathaniel Sloan narrowed his eyes, then smiled. "I can tell you really don’t like Noelle Lockwood, Dr. Lockwood. If she were to take care of me, she would have to move into Imperial Crest again."

"Then you and Noelle Lockwood would be seeing each other constantly. That would be awkward, wouldn’t it?"

Estelle Lockwood wasn’t a fool. "Are you threatening me?"

’That bastard! What is wrong with him?’

’He insisted on me taking care of him, and I let that slide.’

’But now Noelle Lockwood shows up, and he’s demanding a kiss, otherwise I’m not "qualified" to take care of him... Seriously, who does he think he is?’

’Is taking care of him supposed to be some great honor?’

’But if Noelle Lockwood moves into Imperial Crest, all my plans will be for nothing...’ Estelle Lockwood’s expression grew conflicted.

Nathaniel Sloan chuckled softly. He had a good idea what she was thinking and was just about to tell Noelle Lockwood to get lost when a shadow fell over him.

Estelle Lockwood quickly pecked him on the lips!

It was like a dragonfly skimming the water—a touch-and-go whisper—but the soft, warm sensation sent a jolt through Nathaniel Sloan.

A familiar feeling washed over him, and his gaze deepened.

The moment she kissed him, Estelle Lockwood immediately backed away two steps, wiping her lips in disgust and motioning with her eyes for him to speak.

Noelle Lockwood froze completely. Her eyes flew wide, blood rushed to her head, and her eyes turned scarlet—

’What is Yara doing?! She kissed Nathaniel! Aaaaargh!’

’I’ve been by his side for so many years and never even had the chance to touch him.’

’Why does Yara get to kiss him?!’

Tears welled in Noelle Lockwood’s eyes, and she looked utterly pitiful. "Dr. Lockwood, how could you do this? Nathaniel, he..."

"Your services aren’t needed here. I told you not to come to Imperial Crest without my permission."

Nathaniel Sloan cut her off coldly. "Leave on your own, or should I have someone escort you out?"

Looking as if she’d suffered a devastating blow, Noelle Lockwood’s tears streamed down her face. She staggered back two steps, sobbing uncontrollably. "Nathaniel, I know you still blame me. I’ll just go."

"But even if you blame me, there’s no need to put on an act with Yara for my sake. I know..."

"Who said I was acting?" Estelle Lockwood didn’t mind provoking her a little more.

She pressed herself lightly against Nathaniel Sloan’s chest, watching Noelle Lockwood with a look of relaxed composure.

"Nathaniel and I are for real, Miss Lockwood. It’s getting late. Could you please not disturb us?"

’I will return every single word Noelle Lockwood ever said to me, one by one!’

Seeing that Noelle Lockwood still hadn’t left, Estelle Lockwood said with a sweet smile, "Or would you rather stay and watch us continue kissing?"

"You, you..." Noelle Lockwood let out a sob, and under Nathaniel Sloan’s icy gaze, she covered her mouth and ran.

Her retreating figure made it seem as if Estelle Lockwood were an unforgivable Sinner.

Nathaniel Sloan’s gaze was dark and still, yet held an indescribable depth as it fell upon Estelle Lockwood.

As soon as Noelle Lockwood was gone, Estelle Lockwood immediately pushed him away and stepped out of his embrace. She frowned with impatience and said:
