Chapter 423 Suffer The Consequences
When Billy saw Natalie walking over in her hospital gown, he lowered his head in embarrassment.
He claimed that he was loyal to Samuel and would sacrifice his life for his master. However, he instinctively retreated under the freezing condition.
“Billy, how’s Samuel doing?” asked Natalie.
“The doctor gave Sir some oxygen and transfused some warm saline solution into him. He reminded that Sir should rest well for these two days,” Billy reported everything that the doctor had said word-for-word.
After a long silence, Natalie said, “Billy, I went overboard when I scolded you for being useless outside the freezer. It’s too dangerous to enter without a protective suit.”
“Don’t mind it, Ms. Nichols.” Billy patted his chest. “To me, you’re only second to Sir. I’m not saying this because he likes you. Instead, you’ve convinced me with your actions.”
“Why are you making me sound like some burly dude? I’m still a girl, okay?” Natalie joked before saying seriously, “You can leave now. I’ll keep Samuel company. If you’re worried, you can wait outside the hospital ward. Remember that only I can be in here.”
Billy knew that if Samuel were conscious, that would be his wish too.
Hence, he nodded and left the room, leaving some space for Natalie.
Sitting beside Samuel’s bed, Natalie held his hand slowly and pressed it against her cheek.
Only then did she feel the immense worry weighing down on her disappear.
He’s fine.
Natalie felt an urge to cry. Tears welled up in her eyes, though they were tears of joy.
“Samuel, you’re the biggest fool in the world!” mumbled Natalie as she choked on her tears. “But I don’t mind. I’ll use the rest of my life to repay your foolishness.”
In the Hamilton residence, the news of Scarlett plotting to kill Samuel’s fiancée had spread.
Fury raged in Charles’ eyes as he glared at Scarlett.
