Feel the Way You Feel, My Love
Chapter 179

Was it deliberate?

Natalie looked back and took a glimpse at where she had fallen. She thought for a while before finally deciding to just regard it as a mere accident and left the hospital with her scraped arm.

In the afternoon, dressed in her black-rimmed glasses and loose pajamas, Natalie was sitting cross-legged, drawing her designs on the sofa when the doorbell suddenly rang. She put her sketchbook and pencil on her coffee table before getting up to open the door.

When the door was opened, Shane raised his eyebrows at her unusually sloppy look. "Is this what you wear when you are at home?"

"Oh?" Natalie could barely react before she looked down at herself. Instantly, her face turned red. "About that... please wait a while, I'll go and get changed!"

With that, she closed the door with a bang and the door nearly hit Shane's nose.

As Shane stepped back, he could not help but smile at the ornament that was still swaying on the door.

This was the first time he had seen Natalie looking this awkward.

After a few minutes, the door opened again.

Natalie was dressed in her usual smart stylish way. With a welcoming gesture, she said, "Please come in, Mr. Shane!"

Shane nodded and walked in.

Natalie poured him a glass of water. "Mr. Shane, may I help you?"

"Take off your clothes!" Shane said as he placed a few bags on her coffee table.

Natalie nearly choked on her water. With complete disbelief, she stared at him. "Mr. Shane, what did you just say?"

Take off my clothes?

It was only then that Shane realized how misleading he sounded. Covering his mouth as he coughed a little, he said, "I'm here to apply some medication on your wound. You were injured when you fell, weren't you?"

After he sent Jacqueline back to her room, he went to the place where they fell and realized that there was some blood there.

Since Jacqueline was not hurt, it was clear whose blood it was.

"I see!" Natalie's smile replaced her shocked face as she touched her injured arm. "It's alright, Mr. Shane. It wasn't that serious anyway."

"Not serious?" Shane's deep eyes narrowed. Suddenly, he tugged on her wrist and while she screamed, he immediately pulled up her sleeve.

There was a long bloodied scrape on her fair arm. Shane's face darkened instantly and he pursed his lips. "Is this not serious? It's a long scrape. Aren't you afraid that it will leave a scar?" "I..." Natalie was rendered speechless.

As someone who cared deeply about her appearance, of course she was worried about scarring. If there were a scar, there would be many things that she could not wear.

However, why is he so angry?

Natalie looked at Shane confusedly.

Shane released her wrist and commanded her brusquely, "Sit down."

"Okay." Natalie sat down on the sofa obediently.

Shane took the bags from the coffee table and sat next to her. He then opened up the bags and took out the things inside. They were things such as disinfectant iodine solution, anti-bacterial and anti- inflammatory medication, cotton buds, and bandages.

Shane lined up the items and looked at her. "Roll up your sleeve."

"Okay." Natalie nodded and rolled up her sleeve.

Shane opened up the bottle of iodine and began to disinfect her wound.

As if he was afraid of hurting her, he barely used any strength while he applied the iodine on her wound gently.

Natalie could not help but feel all fuzzy inside when she saw how earnest he looked from the side. Her vision became blurry and the atmosphere in the room suddenly became more heartwarming.

However, this atmosphere was quickly disrupted by the sound of the door opening. Yulia walked in with a number of shopping bags. When she saw Natalie and Shane side by side on the sofa, the smile on her face froze. "What are the two of you doing?"

"Mom, you are back!" Natalie looked up and greeted her mother.

"Uh-huh," Yulia responded blankly.

Natalie could see that she was a little unhappy and quickly said, "Mom, Mr. Shane is helping me apply medication."
