The Unwavering Heart That Broke (Nathalie and Lance) novel Chapter 704

Chapter 704

Madonna’s tone grew stern. “Don’t talk nonsense. Your eyes will heal.”

“Madonna.”

Lance’s voice turned even colder. “I don’t like you bringing this up. If you’re going to keep pushing it, you should just return to the rescue team. They need you more there.”

Madonna pursed her lips, staring hard at him. Even completely blind, his overwhelming presence was as sharp and intimidating as ever.

Once he made a decision, he rarely backed down.

She lowered her eyes and relaxed her clenched hands. She had been too impatient.

Nathalie had told her that once Lance’s eyes recovered, she would leave, regardless of whether he agreed to the divorce.

She would face her own dangers alone and refused to drag Lance down

with her.

“I was just asking casually, don’t take it so seriously.” Madonna quickly forced a smile to diffuse the tension. “Besides, a relationship has to be mutual. Even if you were willing, Ellie might not agree to it.”

Lance didn’t respond to her. Instead, he turned his face toward Nathalie. “Nat, I want some Lotus Root.”

“I’ll get it for you,” Madonna immediately picked up her silverware to

serve him.

But he dodged her serving spoon, deliberately keeping his face angled entirely toward Nathalie.

His heightened senses made it painfully obvious who was trying to serve him.

Chapter 704

Madonna’s hand froze awkwardly in mid–air.

Nathalie had kept her eyes lowered this whole time, doing her best to erase her own presence in the room. Seeing the standoff, she blinked, reached out, and gently guided Madonna’s hand toward Lance’s bowl.

But Lance dodged again. His tone carried a hint of grievance. “Nat?”

Madonna struggled to keep her voice steady. “She’s the one giving it to you.”

“The air current is wrong.”

Lance stated firmly, “Are you two bullying me just because I’m blind?”

At that, Madonna quickly pulled her hand back and shot Nathalie a pleading look, silently begging her to serve the food herself.

His words felt like a knife twisting in the heart, deeply uncomfortable for. anyone to hear.

Nathalie finally picked up the food and placed it on his plate. This time, he didn’t dodge. A faint curve lifted his thin lips. “Thank you.”

Nathalie was speechless.

She felt completely exhausted by his antics.

The rest of the dinner was eaten in a heavy, stifled atmosphere.

Elara returned later, patting her full stomach. She excitedly pulled Nathalie’s arm. “Nat, that Spicy Hot Pot place was incredible! I’ll take you there tomorrow, okay?”

Lance’s ghostly voice floated over. “You said it yourself, we have to avoid spicy food right now.”

Elara blinked. “Oh… well, that’s a shame. We’ll definitely go next time you’re in town, alright?”

“Mhm.”

Nathalie nodded.

Elara washed her hands and prepared for their evening acupuncture. Both of them lay back on their respective hospital beds.

Elara treated Nathalie first. Once the needles were in, she was strictly forbidden from moving.

When Elara moved to Lance, he suddenly shifted sideways on the

mattress.

“What are you doing?” Elara asked, confused.
