Chapter 469

?

She quickly picked up Adrian's phone. She brought the phone near her ear. She was about to ask if he was okay; he cut her off and asked, "Where are you?"

Natalia paused herself. She could not move after hearing his voice. He did not seem unwell or in any danger.

So he was also fine, then why the hell was she still feeling like that?

"I am outside," she replied, trying to calm her breath.

Adrian turned quiet as if he could hear her loud heartbeats.

Her gaze moved outside the window. A few drops of rain began to land on the windowpane. The yellow lights of the street started to illuminate the raindrops.

Natalia's gaze was drawn to the slow movement of the raindrops as they combined with other drops.

At that time, both of them were listening to each other's breath on the phone.

After a minute of silence, Adrian asked,

"Are you coming home tonight?"

Natalia blinked her eyes.

He again said home. It was true. His residence was their actual home, where they used to live before. "No."

"Why?"

"I have some stuff to do."

Adrian exhaled deeply, which made her heart beat increase.

"Okay."

His calm and soft tone caused her to feel a pain in her heart.

What if Hazel had not come into their lives? They would have been happy right now.

She had not forgotten how he held her in his arms last night. They fell asleep peacefully in each other's embrace. "Bye," she uttered.

When she noticed he was not cutting the call, she took a shaky breath and cut the call.

Damia watched her every move from beside her. But she was silent. She was worried for Natalia.

Are we doing the right thing by going to that man? Can he help sister?' Damia pondered.

After about half an hour, the car entered a forest road. The car sped along the rough road.

Natalia feared it might harm her

ild. So, she placed her

her belly to protect it el

"Be careful, driver. The lady beside me is not an ordinary person," Damia said to the cab driver.

The cab driver glanced at the rear mirror, not knowing what Damia was saying.

"The address you both gave me is this location," he explained.

Natalia looked around, realizing they had entered the forest.

The rain had stopped a while ago.

The cab driver stopped the car in front of an old, shabby wooden house.

Natalia and Damia both stepped out of the car. Natalia paid the cab driver and asked,

"Can you please wait for us here?" We will go again."

The cab driver thought for a moment then said,

"Okay, you have one hour. I will go back if can't, and you will not be

able to you

o get a cab here notenoveldrama

Natalia agreed with him and gazed at the house.

She covered her strong scent and headed to the door of the house.

Damia knocked on the door, and they waited outside for someone to open it.

An old woman opened the door. Natalia inquired about the person she had come here to meet.

"Oh, you are here for him. He is inside. Please come in.”

Natalia's gaze shifted away from her

and

to the room. She could

e many keys scattered on the floor.

So she got to the right place.
