Chapter 859


    The doctor pondered for a moment and replied, “Yes, it''s possible as the child is barely two months. But


    I''d advise you to discuss this matter with your wife first before you make the final decision.”


    “There''s no need for that. As I said, we don''t have ns for a child at the time being. So...”


    Before he could convince the doctor to agree to the abortion procedure, Natalie groaned and her


    eyshes fluttered. It was a clear sign that she was going to be awake at any moment.


    A sh of disappointment was seen in Sean''s eyes before it disappeared quickly. He smiled at the


    doctor and said, “Seems like my wife is waking up soon. You can leave now, thank you.”

    “Alright.” The doctor nodded and left the ward.


    Natalie woke up the moment the doctor left.


    She rubbed her temples and opened her eyes to see a white ceiling ahead.


    Then, she heard a voice that greeted her warmly. “I see that you''re awake now.”


    She turned and saw a familiar, handsome face.


    Natalie pursed her red lips as she looked at Sean warily.


    He noticed it and his eyes dimmed. However, he quickly put on a smile. “What''s with the look? Are you


    afraid of me?”


    Natalie did not answer him, but sat up and edged away from him to create some distance between


    them.


    “Mr. Sean, were you the one who sent me to the hospital?”


    Sean grabbed a chair and sat down. “Yeah, it was me. You passed out, remember?”


    “Thank you. And thank you for saving me back there.” Natalie bit her lip.


    Although I really don''t like him and I''m even scared of him, I do have to admit that if he didn''t appear in


    time, I would have been...


    Natalie trembled at the thought of it and subconsciously hugged herself.


    “Here, have some water. It might help you calm down.” Sean handed her a ss of warm water.


    She stared at the ss of steaming water and hesitated.


    Seanughed. “What? Are you afraid that it might be poisoned?”


    She eyed him and said nothing.


    Sean was not upset, instead, he smiled wider. “Don''t worry. If I meant to poison you, I wouldn''t have


    saved you back there nor would I have sent you to the hospital. So just drink with ease.”


    Natalie bit her lower lip and pondered on his words before taking the ss of water in hand. “Thank


    you,” she said.


    “Don''t mention it.” Sean waved his hand.


    Natalie took a sip of water and instantly felt better. She could feel the warm water trickling down her


    throat and into her stomach which helped cast away the chills she was feeling moments ago. Simrly,


    her pale face gradually regained some color.


    Sean looked at her with smiling eyes as she slowly calm down.


    However, Natalie felt uneasy from his stares. She slid into her covers and changed the topic. “Mr.


    Sean, may I know why you are here?”


    “I have some business to take of,” Sean answered vaguely. Natalie caught signs that he didn''t want to


    go into details about his trip here, so she didn''t probe further.


    Both Natalie and Sean fell into an awkward silence.


    Momentster, they heard a knock on the door.


    Sean turned and called out, “Come in.”


    The door was pushed open and a man walked in. “Mr. Sean, I''ve gotten rid of the two thugs.”


    Natalie tightened her grip around the ss when she heard about the thugs.


    Sean noticed her reaction but continued, “What did you do?”


    “Those thugs were recidivists over here and no one dared mess with them so no police reports were


    filed. Simrly, the police had an ignorant attitude toward this matter. So, I brought the thugs to the


    police station and donated some supplies to them. The police agreed to keep them locked behind bars


    until the day they die.” the assistant replied.


    This was how the police force in western countries worked.


    Most of the police officers in western countries were veryidback. As long as no one files a police


    report, the police officers wouldn''t budge even if they witness a robbery before their eyes.


    However, if one files a police report and bribes them, the police would dly punish the criminals with


    severe penalties.


    “Are you satisfied with the results?” Sean looked to Natalie.


    She rxed slightly and loosened her grip around the ss. “Yes. Thank you, Mr. Sean.” She nodded.
