A realization dawned upon Natalie—she was repulsed by physical contact with Jeremy. Her love for him had been converted to utter disgust at his touch.
Natalie struggled out of his grasp with all her might, not caring whether her arm could've been dislocated. Then, she stood aside and dry heaved.
It shocked Jeremy, as well as Hank and Austin.
Jeremy was frozen in place. He turned as pale as a ghost.
Natalie vomited nothing. However, the nausea had been too strong to resist.
Once she recovered, the color drained from Natalie's face upon seeing Jeremy's paleness. A torrent of words lingered on her lips, but they dissipated shortly after. She had no idea how to explain.
Hank asked hurriedly, "How are you doing? Do you need to make a trip to the hospital?"
This wasn't a regular occurrence.
"I-I'll go home to rest," Natalie said. She looked at Austin and Hank.
Austin nodded.
Hank agreed, "Go home and rest well. Tell me if you need anything."
Natalie nodded and turned to Jeremy. She said, 'I'm alright. Are you heading to the office? Or will you be coming home?"
Jeremy gazed deeply at Natalie. Then, he said, "I'll be going to the office before going home."
"Alright," Natalie said. She couldn't help but sigh in relief.
