Chapter 356

Author: Bodhi Blossom
Before Natalie could finish, the anxious Landon immediately cut her off, "I'll be there in ten minutes."

With that, he hung up the call before she could say more.

Natalie wasted no time grabbing her ID and bag before heading out. Landon was just as quick and pulled up at her door moments after she arrived.

He hurriedly helped her into the car, and the second they arrived at the hospital, he began shouting, "Help! I've got a patient here!"

Doubled over in pain, Natalie still managed to cut him off, "Landon… obstetrics."

"Obstetrics? Oh, sure…" Then, as if a thought struck him, his head whipped toward her, and his widened eyes fixed on her stomach. "You mean…"

Overwhelmed with shock and joy, Landon didn't bother to consider if grabbing her was deemed improper. He was barely thinking when he swept her into his arms and sprinted to the obstetrics ward.

By the time they crashed into the specialist's office, he was drenched in sweat, and his voice broke with urgency. "Quick, check her

    Jessica's face instantly went pale as her fingers clutched tightly at the hem of her dress. She hadn't expected Benjamin to actually come looking for her. And judging by the look on his face, he was here for payback.After a few seconds of silence, she stood up abruptly and reached for his arm. Her tone softened. "I admit I did drug you, Benjamin, but I only did it for us."Benjamin flung her hand away with such force that she stumbled back a few steps. "You drugged me… for us? You disgust me, Jessica."Natalie watched from the side, trying her hardest not to laugh. It really was quite a struggle to hold it in. Clearing her throat lightly, she couldn't resist chiming in, "Ms. Trent, Ben's never been picky, but you practically presented yourself to him on a silver platter, and he still didn't want you. Shouldn't you be reflecting on why that is?"And you even resorted to drugging him? Given Ben's character, even if he slept with you, did you really expect him to take responsibilit

    Natalie immediately cut Benjamin off, "Hold up. What 'innocence' do you think you still have? That ship sailed a long time ago.""What do you know?" Benjamin huffed. "Ever since I started pursuing Cheryl, I've been good and saving myself for her. I've been celibate for a long time now."Natalie made a gagging expression. "Can you not gross me out, Ben? I actually enjoyed my dinner. It'd be a waste if I had to throw up and waste it all.""Fine. Don't believe me, then," Benjamin said as he yanked the IV needle out of the back of his hand and swung his legs off the bed.Startled, Natalie quickly grabbed him and asked, "Wait, what are you doing? You just woke up. You're not fully recovered yet."Benjamin's eyes were blazing, like he was ready to tear someone limb from limb. "I'm going to settle the score with Jessica. How dare she scheme against me? She must be tired of living."Natalie stared at him, speechless. "It's late at night. Don't make such a fuss. Can't it wait until tomorr

    Natalie explained, "Cheryl called to tell me that you were drugged and told me to pick you up. But by the time I got there, she was long gone."She looked Benjamin up and down before laughing even more heartily. "But I'm curious. Cheryl dragged you all the way out there and was just a step away from the hospital, so why did she dump you by the road?"Benjamin paused mid-step, then looked up at Natalie with a trace of confusion in his eyes. Then, his heart sank. Fragments of last night sharpened in his mind.He'd forced a kiss on her. When Cheryl had been driving, he seemed to have something that immediately pissed her off.Now, he remembered everything. He seemed to have said, "You had a farewell fling with Elias for a breakup, so why are you so heartless to me?"After he uttered those words, she slammed the brakes and threw him out.A heavy wave of loss crashed over him, followed by a surge of anger.He wasn't mad that she'd tossed him out. He was angry at how much she still

    Passersby on the sidewalk gave Benjamin a wide berth, and some even took out their phones to snap photos.Natalie quickly got out of the car and rushed over to drag him to the side of the road. But when she let go, he halted like a wild horse straight into the shrubbery."Ben! Where are you going?"Natalie ran after him, only to see him hugging a thick tree trunk and pressing his cheek to the bark, even sticking out his tongue to lick it. He mumbled incoherently, "Don't leave… Cheryl… Let me hug you…"As he spoke, he tightened his arms around the tree and began rubbing his face against the trunk. It was a sight simply too much to bear.Natalie felt her scalp tingle. She immediately ran over to pull him away. "This is a tree, not Cheryl! Stop gnawing on it. You're going to peel the bark off."But Benjamin was unbelievably strong. She mustered every ounce of her strength to finally pry him off the tree. No sooner had she dragged him away than he started trying to take off his pants

    Cheryl's struggling gradually ceased.She looked at Benjamin, so close at hand, seeing the haze in his eyes and the raw dependence buried underneath. Something within her heart clenched painfully and throbbed.It didn't take long for reasons to drag her back.Benjamin was completely under the drug's control. It wouldn't matter if it were her or a barnyard sow. He'd probably act the same. Still, she didn't shove him away at once. Instead, she raised a hand and gently patted his back as if soothing a child in the middle of a tantrum.When she sensed the tension in his muscles slowly ease, she quietly reached into her bag for a compact stun baton and pressed it to his lower back.Immediately, Benjamin passed out without making a sound.Cheryl had bought the stun baton after she'd been drugged. The experience taught her to keep it close by for self-defense, but it'd never occurred to her that Benjamin would be the first person she'd use it on.She looked at the unconscious Benjami

    Jessica looked at the phone in Cheryl's hand, then at Benjamin leaning against her. His eyes were unfocused, and his entire body clung to her.Though Jessica burned with rage and hatred, she dared not take another step forward.Noticing that she was scared stiff in place, Cheryl turned and supported Benjamin, guiding him toward the emergency exit door.With his body leaning almost entirely on her, the heavy weight strained her, but she dared not slow her pace.His head rested lightly on her shoulder as his warm breaths brushed against her neck, accompanied by pained groans. "Cheryl… C-Cheryl…"She answered softly in a voice barely a whisper, "I'm here."The dim hallway lights cast their overlapping shadows on the wall. The journey was strenuous, yet it carried a hint of salvation in the middle of despair.Cheryl helped Benjamin into the elevator. By the time they arrived at the lobby on the first floor, his consciousness was slipping as he murmured her name over and over in a ho
