Chapter 5

As this was the first time this had happened to her, Natalie was rather panicked and afraid.

Nevertheless, she was quick to calm down. First, she called the emergency services to send an

ambulance over. Then, she contacted Joyce, wanting her to come over and take the children away.

Ultimately, she did not want this accident to traumatize her children.

Soon after that, Joyce arrived, and so did the ambulance.

After stabilizing the man’s injuries, the male paramedic muttered to himself, “Huh... That’s weird. Why

does this look like a stab wound?”

Although Natalie heard the soft mumble, she was too busy worrying about her children than to think

much of it.

With that, she helped the paramedic carry the man onboard the ambulance.

Under the lights of the ambulance, she finally got a good look at the man’s appearance.

The man lying on the stretcher had a tall and slender build. His features were chiseled and well-

defined, which was a very distinguished look. With a face like that, there was no way anybody would be

able to mistake him for anyone else. Even in his unconscious state, he exuded a noble and elegant air.

Her keen eyes noted the bloodstained royal blue suit he was clad in. It fit his body perfectly.

Obviously, this was not a normal store-bought suit; it was a bespoke suit.

In an instant, her heart sank to the bottom of her stomach at the observation.

Arghhhh! I’m pretty sure he’s some rich kid from a wealthy family, and that’s just going to make this

situation a whole lot more complicated. These rich people are always very snooty when it comes to

compensation - just my luck! But then again... what is a man like him doing all the way out here in the

countryside?

Whenever the ambulance drove over the potholes on the uneven road, the jerky motion tugged on the

man’s abdominal wound. Pressing his lips into a thin line, his brows were furrowed slightly as he gritted

his teeth and bore with the pain. Despite that, not a single sound left his lips.

Inexplicably, this reminded Natalie of her son’s stubborn personality.

At the thought of Connor, she abruptly realized this man looked oddly similar to her son as well.

The agony of his abdomen injury was probably getting to the man as huge droplets of sweat began to

dot his forehead.

At the sight of the injured man in distress, Natalie felt the guilt rising within her. Thus, she reached out,

intending to wipe the sweat off him.

The instant her fingers brushed against his skin, his hand snapped up to clamp down on her wrist.

Jolting up in shock, she looked at the man, only to be met with his opened eyes.

Yet, the moment their gazes locked on each other, he fell unconscious again.

Unfortunately, his grip on her wrist did not loosen.

She tried to wrench her hand free several times along the journey, but all her efforts were futile. In the

end, she gave up because she did not want to injure him further by accidentally jostling him with her

struggles. That would only make things worse for everyone.

Thus, she had no choice but to be dragged along as they rushed toward the operating room. He did not

let go of her even when the doctor was suturing his wounds.

His persistence and resolve shocked everyone around, even the medical staff.

As a matter of fact, some of them were wondering what the relationship between them was. Whatever

it was, it was definitely not a simple one.

However, deep in her heart, Natalie knew the reason for his stubborn refusal to let her go. He must be

worried that I’ll run away!

Half an hour later, the doctor announced that the man was free from further complications, and his

condition had stabilized. He was then sent to a normal hospital ward to recuperate.

And finally, the man’s hand loosened its vice-like grip on her wrist.

As soon as he let go, Natalie’s wrist was throbbing with pain while her fingers had gone numb. That

was a testament to how much strength the man had been using to hold her.

“Are you the patient’s family member? Please sign here.” A nurse came over with a form that needed to

be signed and handed it to Natalie.

“Um... I...”

Natalie trailed off. Originally, she had intended on denying she was a family member. But she changed

her mind after casting a glance at the unconscious man on the bed. With a heavy sigh, she picked up

the pen and signed the form.

Looks like this is on me now.

In the end, this was all her fault anyway. She could not hide from her responsibility.

Besides, there was nothing on the man that could prove his identity. That also meant there was no way

of contacting his family.

Worried about his condition, she curled up on a wooden seat beside the bed. Eventua
