Chapter 189 Julian’s mixed feelings
While Niki’s mind was in a turmoil, Natalie left the hospital and met Ryan at the entrance.
He was wearing straight jeans, black sneakers, gray sweater and a loose camel-colored coat, making him look amiable and sunny.
He stood at the entrance of the hospital waiting for Natalie. The moment he saw her, he reached
out his arm and waved to her.
Natalie walked towards him, surprise registered on her face, “what are you doing here?” This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
As Natalie got closer, Ryan beamed, “Julian’s assistant drove you to the hospital, right? I’m afraid it might be a little difficult for you to get a taxi to come back. So I’m here to pick you up.”
Natalie looked up at Ryan, then she realized that his ears and cheeks were red from the cold. He
must had been standing there for a long time.
Natalie was touched. “It’s so cold outside, why don’t you wait for me in the car?”
Her voice was full of reproach.
But Ryan wasn’t mad at all as he could sense Natalie’s concern for him. He smiled brightly, “I’m
afraid I won’t be able to see you in the car.”
Natalie put on a serious face, “you’re still laughing?”
“Don’t wait for me like this afterward.”
After saying this, she seemed to suddenly remember something, her tone slightly softened, “next
time you could send me a message or call me.”
Upon hearing this, Ryan’s eyelashes trembled slightly.
He knew that something urgent must have happened since Natalie was in such a hurry to go to the
hospital.
Moreover, based on his understanding of her, if she met a seriously ill patient, no matter what the
odds of healing were, she would definitely choose to rescue him.
Even if she might be implicated by this, she would lend a hand.
Although he had never heard anyone say anything about Natalie, but after spending so much time together in the laboratory, his had an inkling that she must be a kind-hearted person.
Ryan didn’t reply to Natalie’s question but asked her with a smile, “did you just perform a surgery?”

Natalie tilted her head, raising her eyebrows In confusion, “how did you
know?”
After hearing the affirmative answer, Ryan jutted his chin out, saying, “sky is the limit.”
Sure enough, he didn’t guess wrong.
Natalie remained the same, she didn’t change at all after three years.
Ryan’s smile confused Natalie. She patted him on the back, “why are you laughing? Did you hear what I just said?”
“Next time you wait for me, inform me in advance, okay?”
Natalie said word by word.
Ryan had known that she must undergo a surgery on Mr. Graham. A surgery would take doctors several hours from start to finish without time to take a rest, so she must be very busy.
And he knew what Natalie looked like when she was busy. Not to mention sending messages or making phone calls, even standing next talking to her, she might not be able to hear.
How could he choose to call her at such an important time.
Although Ryan thought this in his heart, he didn’t say it that way, but nodded heavily, “got it.”
His face broke into smiles, his nose was red from cold, and the breath from his mouth was clearly
visible in the chilling air.
Natalie was captivated by his big smile. She stood in front of him, lost in his tenderness.
She even felt that Ryan’s smile could melt the ice in the world, bringing her unusually calm.
In the dark, winter night, the streets were almost deserted. However, with Ryan’s smile, she
unexpectedly did not feel cold and lonely.
This feeling of being accompanied… She thought she would never feel this way since Henry had
left.
“Thank you, Ryan,” said Natalie.
Natalie’s eyes were sparkling against the snow.
‘Thank you for giving me the opportunity to re-enjoy this feeling after Henry left,’ she wondered.
In the three years of being Julian’s wife, she had always been staying at home waiting Julian to come home. Every time she attended various banquets and parties and came home alone with her tried body, no one in the house would say a word of concern.
Ryan raised his eyes and looked into Natalie’s eyes.
Natalie just said, ‘thank you’?
Just as he was about to speak, a voice suddenly came from behind, “Natalie? I thought you have already gone. Why are you still there?”
Natalie looked back.
Wearing a black coat, Julian walked out of the hospital. His leather shoes stepped on the ground, making a dull sound. He looked at her, poker-faced.
Then his gaze fell on Ryan behind her.
The moment he walked through the entrance of the hospital, he saw Natalie standing there, looking up at the man in front of her.
It was a chilly day, they were both dressed in thin clothes, but they didn’t seem to feel cold at all. Instead, they stared at each other with a smile, looking like affectionate couple.
The bright smile… They seemed to be shrouded in the radiance of happiness.
Not knowing why, Julian’s face turned sour. He even felt an indescribable feeling surging in his
heart.
How could she smile like this to other men?
Natalie turned around and saw Julian’s gloomy face which made her fell the air around her was
getting colder.
“Why did you come out? You’re supposed to take care of Grandpa,” said Natalie.
“Urgent matters in company came up, sir needs to handle it now.”
However, it was Joey behind Julian who answered Natalie’s question.
Julian looked back and glared at Joey, who quickly shut up and stepped back a few steps.
‘Urgent matter?’ Natalie cast a curt glance at Julian, quite puzzled.
But regarding to Julian’s expression, she saw no anxiety on him. He was supposed to rush back to company instead of talking to her.
What was he thinking about?
“Let’s go, Natalie, or you’ll get cold. It’s too freezing outside and you’re wearing thin clothes,” Ryan said.
The moment he saw Julian, the smile on his face instantly disappeared, replaced by hostility.
He deliberately showed the closeness between him and Natalie.
Sure enough, Julian’s face turned even more sour after hearing Ryan’s words.
Natalie didn’t see the change in Julian’s expression. When she heard Ryan’s words, she nodded and
said, “you’ve been standing outside for so long. Let’s get in the car.”
After saying this, Natalie walked straight to Ryan’s car, opened the door and sat in.
She didn’t even look at Julian.
Ryan didn’t get in. Instead, he looked straight at Julian.
”
The two stared at each other, an invisible flame was burning between them.
“Why haven’t you come in, Ryan?” Natalie said as she rolled down the window.
“I’m leaving now,” Ryan turned around.
As the words fell, he withdrew his gaze, as if winning a battle, and walked briskly towards the car.
‘Only Julian remained standing still, his eyes gloomy.
“Sir, sir?” Joey called Julian several times, but Julian didn’t seem to hear.
Joey looked in the direction of Ryan’s car, but it was too far away to be seen… Why was boss still
staring at it?
He scratched his head, a little bit confused about the current situation.
He was quite confused about whether Natalie or Niki was more important to sir?
Judging from sir’s attitude toward Natalie now… he chose the wrong side, did he?! He had
previously offended Natalie in order to curry favor with Niki…
‘No!’ Joey was wailing inwardly.
