She and Brandon were standing right next to the haunted house. With the frightening sound of a cracking, the top of the tower snapped and fell towards the ground they were standing on!
Natalie had a lot of questions, but she couldn’t utter a single word. She could only turn her face away from Brandon, silently drying the tears from her eyes.
As soon as Natalie was wheeled into the treatment room in a wheelchair, Brandon informed Beal and Johanna. Johanna couldn’t remember how many times Natalie had been hospitalized in the last six months. She felt sorry and worried for her daughter.
Naturally, she no longer planned to be nice to Brandon. The doctor carefully treated Natalie’s back while Brandon stood in the corner of the room, his eyes fixed on the numerous blisters on her smooth skin.
Finally, he couldn’t help but ask, “Will she be scarred?” Brandon bit his lower lip with strength. He would never forgive himself if Natalie’s skin ended up scarred because of his protection.
The doctor answered honestly, “There are two areas with second-degree burns. Traces will remain, more or less.”
After a long silence, Brandon looked at Natalie and murmured hoarsely, “Thank you for saving me.” It was the first time Brandon had thanked Natalie so sincerely, but she didn’t like it. He treated her with too much distance.
For a moment, Natalie didn’t know what to say. They were husband and wife. There was no need for him to be so formal with her. She forced a smile, but there was a trace of sadness in her eyes. “No problem, when our apartment was on fire, I also protected you. You still have a burn scar on your back. Now we are even.”
Hearing this, Brandon’s expression widened, then immediately darkened. He wanted to say something, but he stopped, thinking twice.
“What apartment? What fire? When did that happen? I don’t remember anything about it.”
When Natalie saw the confusion in Brandon’s eyes, the smile on her face hardened.
Soon, the doctor finished dressing Natalie’s wounds. After he left, she took a deep breath and finally asked, “How strange. Why did you have such a weird expression a year ago?”
