Chapter 70
She was afraid!
Natalie began trembling uncontrollably and there was panic in her eyes.
Her lips quivered as she tried to speak but she could not utter a single word.
There was a dark glow in Tobias' jet black eyes. He noticed that Natalie's hand suddenly froze.
The doctor was a little distressed. Natalie's legs were interlocked and she could not perform the surgery.
"Miss Godfrey, please spread your legs. I need to clean your uterus."
Before the doctor could finish, Natalie shook her head frantically and her legs were stuck together tighter than ever.
Natalie was so frightened that her legs were practically glued together.
The doctor seemed troubled.
If it were some other patients, the doctor would have performed the surgery forcefully. However, this was Tobias' woman and the doctor dared not act so rashly.
Tobias narrowed his eyes and lowered his head.
His extremely handsome face approached Natalie slowly.
Even at such a close distance, his face was flawless. Even his eyelashes were longer than Natalie's.
He was so handsome!
Natalie sighed internally. What was the point of him being handsome?
She was so frightened and Tobias' extremely handsome face did nothing to help.
It was impossible for her to marvel at his looks at times like this.
Tobias leaned in gradually and his cold lips pressed against Natalie's.
Natalie went blank.
Tobias... Tobias kissed her... On the operating table... There was someone else in the room...
Natalie wanted to push Tobias away but she felt weak. A current circulated through her whole body from her lips and made her shivered.
Tobias made a gesture to the doctor with his right hand. The doctor immediately snapped back to her senses.
The doctor started doing her work slowly...
Natalie noticed the doctor's movement and she wanted to struggle. However, Tobias secured Natalie's head and enhanced the kiss.
His forceful kiss was impossible to turn down. He seemed to be trying to melt her with that kiss.
A whiff of clean masculine scent flooded into Natalie's nose and her head was getting dizzy.
She felt that the world was spinning. She did not care whether she was in the operating theater or there was someone else around.
She tossed everything aside and immersed herself in the kiss.
Meanwhile, the doctor's face suddenly changed. Fortunately, she had yet to make a move, otherwise, she would be in trouble.
The doctor was highly experienced and with one look, she immediately understood what happened.
She could not believe that there was such a silly person in this world.
If Natalie was not Tobias' woman, the doctor would have gone ballistic.
The doctor's face stiffened and she wanted to speak. However, she noticed Tobias and Natalie sharing a passionate kiss. She bit her tongue to not interrupt them.
She had been a doctor for over a few decades but this was the first time she witnessed a couple kissing on the operating table. She was quite old but she still blushed at the sight of them kissing.
Tobias kissed Natalie and glanced at the doctor occasionally to check on the latter.
He spotted that the doctor's face changed when she spread Natalie's legs. Even the hemostat she was holding onto was set aside.
Tobias' brows twitched.
He tightened the grip of his left hand over Natalie's head and kissed her lower lips before releasing her.
Natalie was still engrossed in the kiss that she could not react.
"What's wrong?" Tobias stared at the doctor.
The doctor did not know where to start.
"Miss Godfrey didn't have a miscarriage," the doctor explained, "She's not pregnant."
Tobias immediately understood.
"She's on her period?" Tobias' voice was low and crisp.
The doctor nodded.
Tobias' tense face completely relaxed after hearing that.
He walked over to Natalie.
"It's over?" Natalie asked softly. She regained herself from the kiss.
She understood that Tobias was trying to distract her with that kiss earlier.
Tobias nodded. "Let's go back."
He helped Natalie get off the operating table.
Natalie's legs felt like jelly but she did not feel any pain.
She glanced at the doctor gratefully. The doctor was really skillful that she did not feel anything during the process.
The only odd thing was the doctor was giving her strange looks. The doctor seemed to be holding back her laughter?
Tobias helped Natalie out of the operating theater and let her sit on a bench. He took off his jacket to place it around her. "Wait for a moment," Tobias said to Natalie. He doubled back to the doctor to whisper something.
The doctor immediately understood and handed something to Tobias.
Thankfully, she was already in her fifties. Otherwise, it would be humiliating to hand something like this to a handsome man.
Tobias passed it to Natalie and urged, "You'll need this."
His voice was gentle and clear.
Instantly, Natalie was thunderstruck when she noticed what Tobias was holding.
She went blank.
"This..." She pointed at the thing Tobias was holding onto shakily and stammered, "I was just on my period."
Tobias nodded in response.
Natalie was so embarrassed that she wanted to die.
She snatched the sanitary pad from Tobias and dashed to the bathroom.
She put on the sanitary pad but she stayed in the bathroom and dared not go out.
Embarrassing! Embarrassing! How humiliating!
"Natalie, I knew you were stupid but I never thought you're this stupid!" she cursed herself internally.
She was so silly beyond words.
She stirred up a commotion on the way to the hospital and claimed that she had a miscarriage. In the end, she was just on her period.
Natalie wanted to bang her head against the wall.
She had never been so embarrassed all her life.
Natalie paced in the bathroom. She did not know how to face Tobias.
A few moments later, she received a text message.
It was from Tobias.
The message read, "Quickly come out and change your clothes too."
Natalie realized that her dress was dirty from her period.
She bit the bullet and walked out.
She was trying to think of something to say desperately but Tobias was so calm as if nothing happened.
In the car, Natalie fumbled with her fingers worriedly.
"All the staff members in the hospital will keep it confidential. No one will tell what happened today. It will be like nothing happened," Tobias said placidly.
Natalie flushed.
However, Tobias' words made her feel a little relieved.
If rumors spread about this, she would never be able to live her life normally again.
"Tobias, am I being really stupid today?"
Tobias gave her a side-glance and replied, "Not just today. You're always stupid." Natalie could not find anything to refute him.
Fortunately, Tobias returned to his usual indifferent and sharp-tongued manner. Otherwise, his previous gentle look would drive her crazy.
Her heart and her head would not take it. Her whole body could not bear it as well.
It was late when they returned to Themyscira Apartment. Aunt Lee did not sleep and she sat on the sofa as she waited for them. Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
She rushed over as soon as she heard the door unlocked.
"Miss Godfrey, it's all my fault. D*mn it!" Aunt Lee cried and she wanted to slap herself in the face again.
