Chapter 108 He Was Like A Little Pet
Natalie was stunned.
But Kendrick didn’t seem to do anything more. Instead, he put his face to her obediently and listened to
her heartbeat.
She thought that he just wanted to feel secure as he had a nightmare.
But soon something went wrong.
He rubbed against her with the tip of his nose.
And then he started to lick like a little pet.
She became speechless, "..."
She was dumbfounded.
What was that?
Subconsciously, she wanted to say no to his licking.
However, she heard him snort, "It hurts..."
He looked wronged and weak.
She dared not make unexpected movements at the moment for fear that she should tear his wound. As
she hesitated, he had already started to do whatever he wanted.
The moonlight streamed in through the window.
She had lost her mind. Finally, she heard the sound of his sucking and his soft murmur, "Nat..."
He was calling her name.
...
Natalie woke up early in the morning.
She had stood at the washstand for a full-twenty-minute.
She didn't take out the washcloth to clean her face until the foam was dry on her face and her skin
became tight.
When she thought that Kendrick rubbed himself against her like a little pet last night, her face was
burning.
She had reasons to suspect that he had planned it for a long while.
After washing her face, she was in a daze again when she sat in front of the dressing table and applied
skin lotion to herself.
If it weren't for the fear that she might tear his wounds, she wouldn't allow him to take an ell.
After patting her face, she lifted her clothes and had a check. She seemed to have a scratch a bit. No
wonder she felt a little hurt this morning.
She clenched her fist silently.
There was a knocking on the door.
It was Ashlynn. She said that the breakfast was ready and that she might trouble Natalie for bringing it
into Kendrick's room.
He got an injury in his right shoulder, making him awkward to eat.
Natalie looked back and asked with her eyes lowering, "Where's Baron?"
She wanted Baron to help him eating.
Now she didn't want to see him much.
"Baron just went out." answered Ashlynn.
"He can eat with one hand." Natalie gestured and showed Ashlynn how to do that with her left hand.
"..." Ashlynn was stunned for a long while before she said with a gloomy face, "Mrs. Ramsey, I dare not
say that to Mr. Ramsey."
Natalie got up.
She went to the shelf outside the door to pick up the tray and pushed the door open.
Kendrick leaned against the head of the bed, looking much better than last night.
As he saw her coming inside, he frowned slightly, "Did you go back last night?"
She looked up to him, finding that he was calm. Except that he was a little upset when he woke up in
the morning and didn't see her by his side, he didn't show many feelings.
"Yeah. I left in the middle of the night." She said, "I was worried that I might touch your wound. I didn't
sleep well."
He didn't say anything more.
After staring at her for a while, he found that she avoided eye contact instead of looking at him.
She handed the cup to his mouth. It reminded her of something when she saw him taking a sip of the
milk and protruding the tip of his tongue to lick the milk on his lips, and she turned her face away
immediately.
And then she peeled the eggs in silence.
He took a little bite of the egg. Seeing that she was absent-minded with her eyes downcast, he raised
her chin and asked, "Why are you in a daze?"
And then she met his gaze.
She was quite puzzled.
Was she too innocent?
He just kissed her from her neck down to the waist up. She felt shy even when she thought about it.
How could he be so calm?
Could he forget about it!
She cleared her throat, "You had a little fever last night."
"Yeah, I had a nightmare." responded he.
She became wide-eyed, "Did you dream of anything?"
"I don't remember." He frowned, "It is not fresh in my memory."
Sure enough!
He just played with her body.
And then he forgot everything.
Seeing her changing expression, he slightly squinted and eyed her for a while. As he settled his eyes
on her neck, he found no mark there. He raised his eyebrows, "Last night, I..."
She foisted the remaining half of the egg into his mouth directly.
...
At ten o'clock, Natalie changed dressings for Kendrick.
The specific surgical dressings had a strong effect. She applied it last night and found that the wound
recovered obviously.
She applied the dressings to his wound carefully with a cotton swab and said, "I heard from Nigel that
those who hurt you were two underage high school students?"
"That's right. They are two poverty-stricken students sponsored by the group, instigated by someone."
said he.
"Do you straighten it out?" asked she.
Hearing that, he pursed his lips.
It was not hard to guess the truth.
What had happened should have something to do with Melvin.
He turned to her and promised, "It was because of my carelessness this time. Well, none of this will
happen again."
"You always say that I hurt myself," she curled her lips, "please don't make yourself in danger. Well,
you just start to feel your legs. What should we do if you hurt your nerves again?"
He lowered his eyes and looked at the wound on his leg.
She sewed it in a rather delicate manner.
Obviously, she was quite an expert.
Even Dr. Foley said the wound was properly treated when he saw it.
Kendrick was thinking about something.
Many questions thronged on his mind.
She always left him many confusions and secrets.
However, if he asked, he was sure she would make a lot of excuses to avoid the questions. After all,
she was a really quick thinker.
If he asked her this time, he felt she would say that she used to be hurt a lot in the family so she could
deal with her wounds.
He cleared his throat, "Dr. Foley told me yesterday that the wound was treated properly."
She nodded, "Well, I used to get hurt rather frequently in the Quinn family and thus I learned how to
handle those wounds."
Hearing that, he had a deep and dark look. He touched the top of her hair and said, "Thank you."
He thought that a man should be sensible to see the big picture.
If she refused to talk about it, pressing her wouldn't do anything good but stiffen their relationship.
But as for something he wanted to know, he always had a way to find out.
His deep look disappeared and then he touched her head again, saying, "Will you get the laptop for
me?"
Hearing that, she became wide-eyed immediately, "You want to work?"
"Yeah. The strategic plan for Quarter 4 needs to come out today."
"No. Look, you haven't recovered and you should take more rest."
"I have promised to hand it in today." said he gently.
As someone responsible for the strategy, once he delayed, the subsequent projects would then be put
off. Many of his subordinates were waiting for his plan to be implemented.
She frowned, "Can't Nigel and his colleagues write for you?"
He smiled, "As for the strategic plan, well, they just can't keep up with my thinking, nor meet my
requirements."
Right right. What a demanding man.
He stared at her face for a while and said, "Write it for me."
She could follow his thoughts.
They could be on the same wavelength.
"What?" Natalie looked at him.
He just squeezed her instead of his assistants and subordinates.
That was the capitalist, wasn't it?
He just didn't leave his wife alone!
However, didn't his focus and responsibility make her like him in the first place?
She chose him to be her Mr. Right.
Just put up with his own way!
She mumbled, "All right. I will take the laptop."
She took the laptop back and opened it as she sat on the bedside. She found him saying with a smile,
"Don't be that upset. Well, you won't write it in vain. I will give you a gift..." He added after a pause, "But
it will take some time."
She asked subconsciously, "What?"
"The Ramsey Group." said he.
