Chapter 1066
“The organizer booked our hotel rooms for us,” replied Mercede.
Natalie was relieved. “That’s nice.”
“So, tell me. What are your thoughts about the uingpetition?”
Hearing that question, Natalie’s smile fell. She poured out all the issues she had faced thus far.
Listening to her, Mercede tried to offer as many helpful suggestions as she could.
As thepetition was starting, the two finally ended their catch-up session.
Admittedly, with a mentor guiding the way, Natalie felt much more at ease. She was no longer as lost
as before. For theingpetition, she felt more confident.
“Nat, over here.” Just as Natalie entered thepetition hall, she heard Lina’s voice. Looking over, she
saw that Lina was already seated in front of their table. Lina was smiling and waving at her.
Natalie returned a smile. While supporting her stomach, she waddled over.
Just as she was passing through two tables, a leg suddenly appeared in front of her.
Natalie did not notice it at all, so she tripped and was about to fall face-first to the ground.
“Nat!” Lina’s face paled as she called out.
Natalie did not respond. She looked down with a face full of horror. Her hands gripped tightly around
her stomach.
She was pregnant. If she fell down, she might lose her baby or be forced to give birth early.
Babies born earlier were typically weaker. Their chances of survival would thus be lowered severely.Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.
Even as the mother, she would be greatly injured.
Either way, everyone in the hall was stunned by this scene. Lina immediately stood up and ran over to
catch Natalie.
However, she was too far away. Even if she ran as fast as she could, she would not be able to get
there in time.
Just as Natalie was about toe into contact with the floor, a hand appeared out of nowhere and
grabbed onto her, helping her up.
After regaining her footing, Natalie held onto the corner of a table. With deep breaths, she tried to calm
herself down.
That was close. I could have lost my child.
Her face was drained of color, and her hands were trembling. What happened had left her slightly
traumatized.
“Nat, are you okay?” Lina asked worriedly after finally reaching her side.
Natalie opened her mouth to speak, but she was so scared that no words came out.
At this moment, the front door of the hall was kicked open. Soon after, the loud sound of a set of
footsteps could be heard, followed by two smaller ones.
“Mommy.” The two children looked at Natalie and quickly hurried over. They wrapped their arms around
her leg at the same time. “Are you okay?”
Natalie looked down to see their moist red eyes. She knew that they were frightened by what just
happened. Feeling bad, she caressed them lightly on their heads.
“I’m fine…” Natalie replied hoarsely. Then she looked up at the man walking over.
He pulled her into his arms and hugged her tight.
Natalie could feel that his heartbeat was much faster than usual. He must have been severely impacted
by what he had just witnessed as well.
“Sorry for making you worry, Darling,” Natalie whispered as she returned his hug.
The man loosened his grip and cupped her face. “I’m just d you’re okay.”
Natalie forced a smile. “I’m perfectly fine. Good thing Tina caught me.”
She looked over at the foreign woman sitting at the table to her left.
It was this woman who had acted just in time to catch her. Otherwise, she would have been in an
ambnce by now.
Shane looked at Tina. He bowed in gratitude and said, “Thank you for saving my wife and my child.”
The two kids followed suit and bowed as well. “Thank you for saving our mommy and our siblings.”
Tina had no idea who Shane was. However, she had seen him walking together with the organizer
before. Not only that, she noticed that the organizer was unusually polite to him. From that, she knew
that this man was no ordinary man.
