Five Years Later, He Goes Wild for Her Again의 모든 챕터: 챕터 41 - 챕터 50

The roads in the city were congested at night, and the car tail lights looked like an angry red snake coiling on the roads, moving slowly.Natalie sat in the front passenger seat, turning her head slightly to look at Austin, who was behind the wheel. She vaguely sensed a heavy atmosphere shrouding him.As soon as the traffic eased, Austin floored the gas and sped up, overtaking several cars in one go.Conversely, she gradually calmed down. Her fear dissipated slowly. She then took out her phone and carefully reviewed the city's dog management laws, preparing for a retaliatory case.20 minutes later, the car slid into hospital grounds.Natalie undid her seatbelt and pulled on the door handle, wanting to get out, but Austin beat her to it. He had already circled the car and opened the door for her. Then, he reached in and carried her out of the car."I'm fine… I can walk on my own," Natalie exclaimed in shock, suddenly feeling a weightlessness to her body. She instinctively put her

Natalie's voice was weak and feeble."Thank you."Austin continued driving, his eyes fixed straight ahead. "You don't need to be so polite with me.""Do you still have the receipt for the hospital bill?""Yeah.""Can you give it to me?""Yeah.""I'll pay you back after suing those people and getting compensation from them.""You don't need to pay me back."Natalie fell silent. Aside from paying for rent and food, almost all of the rest of the money that she earned had to go to Billy's hospital expenses.It was like an endless black hole.Zeke knew that Billy was already brain dead and would never wake up from his coma ever again. However, he refused to give up treatment just so that he could continue trapping Natalie and dragging her down. He wanted to force her into marrying him.Austin's phone rang just then. He put on his bluetooth earpiece, answered the call, and gave a curt reply."Okay."After hanging up, he turned the steering wheel and made a U-turn around the cor

"I'll… I'll release the man," Jackson said at once, grinning with a guilty conscience yet still feigning composure. "I'll release him immediately. Why didn't Zeke tell me that you were a lawyer?"Natalie couldn't be bothered to pay him any heed. It had been a very long night for her. Her thighs were still very sore from the vaccination, she was thoroughly exhausted, and she was on the brink of collapse.It was close to 1:00 am by the time Austin was finally released.The temperature was extremely low in the dead of the night. The wind was cold, biting, and unforgiving.The city streets were deserted by now. The rows of continuous street lights were dim and yellow, adding a touch of warmth to the night.Natalie sat in the front passenger seat with her eyes closed. The tension in the car was high, and it was also exceptionally quiet.Austin broke the silence first."What's your relationship with Zeke Cox?"Natalie didn't reply. She didn't want him to know about Franklin being in

This was also precisely the reason why Natalie just couldn't get Austin out of her head, even after five years. She didn't think she would be able to find another person as good as him or better than him anymore.Maybe she was just destined to be alone for the rest of her life.She'd only just stepped foot into the residential area when she suddenly heard the voices of children playing."Guess who?" one of them squealed to the other.Natalie stopped in her tracks. Her heart thumped wildly in her chest as she followed the sound of the childish voice. She saw a little girl covering the eyes of a little boy from behind him. She questioned him with a big, happy smile on her face.The little boy answered as soon as he heard her voice. "You're my best friend! Amanda White!"The girl then uncovered the boy's eyes and giggled loudly. "You guessed right!"The boy turned around and held Amanda's hand in his. "Let's go play on the slide!"Natalie watched the two tiny figures run over to t

This was incredibly awkward and embarrassing!Austin's heat enveloped Natalie, making her begin to miss his body, even though she never harbored such impure thoughts against him in the first place. Her legs turned to jelly, and her lower abdomen felt hollow and empty.She pursed her dry lips and whispered, "I'm here for serious business. You should leave.""What kind of serious business?"Natalie felt her face turn warm. Her ears and neck were also getting hot.Then, there was a low, deep roar coming from the woods.Natalie was shocked. The words left her lips almost instinctively. "No, wait, they're done already? That was quick!"She immediately pushed Austin aside, dug out a face mask from her bag, and put it on. Then, she dashed into the deeper part of the woods and shone her flashlight toward the elderly couple. She recorded them on her phone and a voice recorder.Her sudden appearance caught George and Betty completely by surprise. They were scared out of their wits as the
