Chapter 69
"Bang..."
The bowl in Aunt Lee's hand fell into the sink and shattered into pieces.
"Miss Godfrey!"
She helped Natalie up with a pale face. "Are... You alright?"
Aunt Lee's voice was trembling when she spoke.
Natalie just felt a little pain from her bottom. She helped herself up by holding Aunt Lee's hand and replied, "I just slipped. You don't have to treat me like a porcelain doll."
As soon as she finished, she was suddenly taken aback. There was something warm emanating from her lower body.
Natalie looked down.
She was wearing a white dress and with the flick of her wrist, she could glimpse her underwear beneath it.
Her underwear was stained red.
"Aunt Lee..." Natalie stared at Aunt Lee in panic.
Although she had no experience with any of this, she watched something similar on TV.
The TV would portray a pregnant woman bleeding when she suffered a fall.
"Miss Godfrey, this is all my fault." Aunt Lee slapped herself in the face.
Aunt Lee burst into tears.
Natalie took a deep breath. Aunt Lee was panicking, so she had to remain calm.
"Aunt Lee, call 911..." Natalie forced herself to calm down.
Her words successfully made Aunt Lee snapped back to her senses. She wiped away her tears while dialing the emergency number on her mobile phone frantically. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
Aunt Lee helped Natalie to sit down on the sofa as they waited.
Natalie kept telling herself to calm down but she could not control the growing fear and panic in her heart.
She did not know how long the ambulance would take but her lower body was still bleeding.
She was petrified.
Suddenly, Tobias returned home.
Natalie did not know why Tobias came back coincidentally. However, she knew that her fearful heart seemed to have found someone to rely on when she laid eyes on Tobias.
Aunt Lee immediately knelt down in front of Tobias and said apologetically, "Sir, Miss Godfrey has miscarried. It's all my fault."
"I fell down on my own," Natalie suddenly chipped in.
She knew that Aunt Lee did not mean to push her. She also knew the consequences if a servant caused her employer to miscarry.
Generally, the servants who served wealthy families were poor. These people treasured their jobs greatly and their jobs were their lifelines. Without any job, they would not even be able to put food on the table.
Besides, if the news about Aunt Lee causing Natalie to lose her baby spread, putting aside Tobias' actions toward Aunt Lee, she could forget about finding another job in the future.
Natalie hailed from a poor family herself, hence she could understand the importance of a job to poor people!
Aunt Lee turned over her shoulder to stare at Natalie in disbelief.
Tobias' eyes fell on the bloodstain on the lower part of Natalie's body.
"Benjamin, I'm going to the hospital. Arrange it immediately." Tobias reacted quickly and immediately made a call on his mobile phone.
After hanging up the call, he went to Natalie's side and his usual indifferent handsome face was visibly shaken.
However, he returned to his usual demeanor in an instant and only his dark eyes were quivering.
He had to be as calm as he could at times like this so that Natalie would calm down too.
"Don't be afraid." Tobias held Natalie's hand and comforted, "I'm here."
Natalie's nose suddenly twitched when she heard these words and she almost burst into tears. When Aunt Lee was accompanying her to wait for the ambulance, she felt like she would never see the light of day again. However, she was suddenly relieved when she spotted Tobias.
Tobias held Natalie's hand tightly. His hand wrapped around the back of her delicate hand firmly. His warmth penetrated her skin and was channeled to the bottom of her heart.
Natalie looked up to stare at Tobias' handsome figure as various emotions swirled in her dark eyes.
Benjamin was very efficient. In just five minutes, the ambulance arrived.
Tobias carried Natalie into the ambulance and Aunt Lee also wanted to follow them.
Tobias ordered, "You should stay back and clean up. You don't need to come with us."
Aunt Lee did not dare to protest. She hated herself for her carelessness.
On the way to the hospital, Natalie finally calmed down.
Maybe God was not allowing her to have this child or maybe God thought that she was really unworthy of Tobias.
When the psychological fear dissipated, Natalie could feel the pulsating sensation in her body.
Waves of pain assaulted her ceaselessly and her eyebrows twitched.
"What's wrong, Natalie?" Tobias noticed the change in Natalie's behavior. He lowered his head and his face was handsome and warm. Natalie was stunned. This was the first time that Tobias called her 'Natalie1.
Natalie. Natalie. Tobias never addressed her this way.
Suddenly, something was filling up Natalie's heart gradually.
This man was really good-looking. His voice was pleasant and gentle too.
If only he was not the president of YS Group.
Perhaps, the gap between them would not be so huge without his all-encompassing power and his great wealth. There might even be some hope for her.
Natalie bit her pale lips. There was no trace of color left on her lips.
The pain was still sweeping over her. Her toes curled up due to the pain.
It hurt so much as if she was having menstrual cramps.
Natalie would always suffer from unimaginable pain whenever she had her period.
Natalie was sent to a nearby hospital at an astonishing speed. At the same time, the whole hospital was sealed off and no outsiders were allowed to enter.
Even all the medical staff members were summoned for a briefing to keep everything confidential.
Natalie was pushed into the operating room and Tobias wanted to follow her. The doctor dissuaded him softly, "Mr. Whitlock, the process of the surgery may be a little unpleasant. In order to avoid any psychological trauma, I suggest that it would be better for you to stay outside."
"It's okay. I'll go in with her. She'll be scared," Tobias replied without any hesitation.
Natalie had never experienced things like this and she was young too. It was natural for her to be scared.
He had to keep her company. Otherwise, he was afraid that she would not be able to make it.
"You'd better not come in. Just listen to the doctor." Natalie was embarrassed.
Tobias bent down and whispered in her ear, "I've seen all of you. There's no need to be shy at times like this."
Natalie blushed but she could not find anything to retort him.
After entering the operating room, Natalie was placed on the operating table.
Although it was a female doctor, she still felt very embarrassed.
The doctor kept comforting Natalie, "Don't be afraid. The surgery will be done in no time."
Natalie's heart was pounding. She took a deep breath and convinced herself to calm down.
"Natalie, you have braved through all sorts of things since you were a child. What are you afraid of now?" She thought.
She suddenly laughed, "I'm not afraid!" Tobias was pained when he noticed that she was feigning composure.
Although Natalie lifted the corners of her lips and forced a smile, her eyes betrayed her.
Her doe-like black eyes were covered with a thin layer of mist and fear and panic were circulating under it.
Tobias' palm was moist because Natalie's hand, which he had been holding on to, was soaked in a cold sweat.
Natalie had a breakdown when the female doctor approached her with a surgical device similar to a pair of pliers.
No matter how silly she was, she knew the function of that thing.
