Chapter 48 How did You Skin Your Mouth
Those who were clever often got ruined because they thought themselves wise.
"Sorry, I will never be curious."
Although Natalie was penitent, it was of no use.
What she was doing would make herself plunge into the abyss.
And that was beyond her control.
No.
She was done for!
As she thought about it, she immediately turned on the shower and poured cold water on herself.
Now she only found that her hands and legs felt like jelly and that she was rather weak.
She couldn't even pick herself up.
She only wanted to soak in the cold water for a long time.
...
Kendrick got off the plane at 5 o'clock.
In fact, there were a lot of things waiting for him to deal with in the company.
However, as Nigel asked him, he just said he would go straight home.
Now Wonder Villa was a place where he prefers to stay.
It was no longer oppressive or cold, and it showed some warmth instead.
While in the car, he saw a message on his phone.
A smile slightly twitched his lips.
He finally found a sticker in the chat box and sent it to Natalie.
But she just didn't give her reply.
He closed his eyes slightly!
As he got home at 7 o'clock, he didn't see her.
What a little liar.
She promised to wait for him to come back. But so far, he just hadn't caught sight of her at all.
"Is she in the room?" asked Kendrick.
"Mrs. Ramsey is taking a bath." Ashlynn looked up and said, "I knocked on her door half an hour ago and there was no answer. But I heard the sound of water, so I guess Mrs. Ramsey must be having a bath!"
Kendrick wiped his hands with alcohol swabs to sterilize them and said, "Then prepare the dinner please. I'll wait for her."
It took time for a woman to take a bath.
He knew it.
Last time when they were in the Ramsey family, she spent at least an hour having a bath.
And then she would apply various moisturizers.
She might put on a facial mask.
He was afraid it would take another 20 minutes.
But what else could he do? He could just wait for her.
Kendrick was so patient that he kept waiting until the clock struck 8.
But Natalie had not come downstairs yet.
"Shall I go up and have a look?" said Ashlynn.
"I'll go!" answered Kendrick.
He kept his hand on the wheelchair and took the elevator to the second floor. He knocked on the door, but no one answered.
He pursed his lips and opened the door,
The sound of water in the bathroom also stopped.
"Have you done it yet?" asked Kendrick.
But he heard no reply.
It was completely silent inside.
Could she fall asleep!
He came to the bathroom and knocked on the door, "Natalie?"
No one answered.
He knocked again.
"Oh... Yes!" Her vague voice came from inside.
After a while, the door was open.
Natalie came out swathed in a towel.
He looked up and saw her rosy face as if she had worn some rouge.
"What's wrong?"
She shook her head. As she wanted to say that she was all right, she found she was tongue-tied.
She wanted to smile, only to find that her facial muscles became a bit stiff.
As she had soaked in cold water for a long time, she felt at last that it was not that hot.
But she was still weak.
When she heard his call outside, she nearly levered herself up from the bathtub.
"Get changed then. We'll go downstairs and have dinner." He turned his eyes away.
She didn't swath herself rather tightly. It seemed that the towel could fall at any time.
Her pretty face looked like a red cherry in midsummer.
Her eyes were as clear as water, slightly drooped at the corners.
Her straight and fair legs just hove into his view.
It was the purity of a young girl.
But there were some desires.
Although he had seen something that he shouldn't have seen before, he still felt a little uneasy.
"All right!" She nodded numbly and stiffly, but she remained still.
He frowned, "Then why are you still standing here?"
"Nothing..." She felt that the cat got her tongue, "I'm so dizzy."
"Have you got a fever?"
"I haven't!" She stiffened up from her expression to movement, losing her former supple body and lively state.
She tried to splay apart her legs and walk forward.
But she was so dizzy that she had no idea where to go.
