The Unwavering Heart That Broke (Nathalie and Lance) novel Chapter 706

Chapter 706

There was no wind in the room, yet Nathalie felt her eyes burning with unshed tears. The suffocating emotion clashed violently with the wild pounding in her chest, making her feel incredibly overwhelmed and heavy–hearted.

She kept her lips pressed tightly together, her gaze lowered, refusing to look at him again.

Only after he completely removed the hospital gown did she step forward to help him dress.

Her focus was absolute. Every time she leaned in, her unique, faint perfume wrapped around him, brushing against his heart like a soft feather duster.

It made his entire body itch with anticipation.

His sharp Adam’s apple bobbed heavily. The shirt was quickly buttoned

When it came to the pants, his voice went raspy. “I can handle this part.”

Nathalie ignored him, forcefully yanking his hospital pants down before grabbing his dress slacks to help him step into them.

Lance was entirely speechless.

Why did he suddenly feel like a paralyzed patient being serviced by a

nurse?

She pulled the slacks up. As her hands reached his waist to do up the zipper, she noticed the very obvious physical shift.

Her movements paused for a split second

Chapter 706

Nathalie was thoroughly unamused.

She yanked the zipper up with aggressive force and roughly fastened his

belt.

Turning on her heel, she marched out of the room without a shred of

hesitation.

“Nat?”

The only answer he received was the merciless slam of the door.

Lance’s lips curled up. He reached down to adjust his cuffs, a low, rumbling chuckle escaping his chest.

When the flight landed in Cabinda, the temperature difference was stark. It was cold enough to require a heavy overcoat.

With the New Year approaching, the streets were already adorned with bright, festive red decorations.

Sitting in the car, Elara peered out the window excitedly. “Wow, so this is Cabinda? It’s way colder than Southport, but the scenery is gorgeous. Is there any good food or fun stuff to do around here?”

Bagot answered from the front. “Tons. You can look up some travel guides later and explore at your own pace.”

Elara nodded vigorously. “Good plan. I’ll check out what the local influencers recommend first.”

When the car pulled into Lumina Grand, Elara’s excitement peaked. “This villa is absolutely stunning!”

“Obviously,” Bagot said proudly. “This is Lance and Nathalie’s wedding home. They designed and decorated it together. They poured their hearts into it, so of course it’s beautiful.”

“Tsk tsk ” Flara shook her head. “So what? Doesn’t stop a marriage from

falling apart in the end.”

Bagot’s eyelid twitched. “Dr. Lane, if you don’t know how to speak, just keep your mouth shut!”

Elara huffed. “Humph, I’m just stating facts!”

The staff had received word in advance and cleaned the villa flawlessly inside and out. They were currently lined up at the door to welcome them.

“Sir, Mrs. Adams. Lunch is prepared, and Adelaide has already departed from Cabinda,” the housekeeper announced.

“Good.”
