While saying that, Shane was pushed until he was about thirty to forty centimeters away from the entrance, then she slammed the door.
After closing the door, Yulia noticed the small bag in her hand. She snorted in disdain and wanted to open the door and throw away the bag.
But after a moment of careful consideration, she pursed her lips and decided not to do so.
“Mom, who was that?” Natalie came out of the shower with a towel wrapped around her body. She saw Yulia’s angered look.
Yulia stared at her and uttered, “Who else could it be. Your companion from last night.”
After hearing that, Natalie choked and lowered her head embarrassingly. “Mom, don’t say that.”
“Hmph, am I wrong to say that?” Yulia pressed her forehead irritably. “Explain now, he has a fiancée and you ended up with him...”
“Mom.” Natalie yanked Yulia’s sleeves carefully. “I know I’m wrong, don’t be angry. It was really an accident, it won’t happen again.”
“Since you’ve said it, you have to honor your words. You knew how much I hated homewreckers and I don’t wish my daughter to end up being one.” Yulia shot Natalie a stern look.
Natalie agreed and nodded. “I won’t!”
“Alright then.” Yulia’s expression calmed down. She caressed the back of her head and passed her the small bag. “This is from Shane. Go and apply it before it gets infected. I’ll go and wash my face.”
After Yulia had left, Natalie opened the bag curiously and took out the contents one by one. When she saw it was medicine for her to apply around that area, her face blushed.
“He’s quite attentive.” Natalie smiled and murmured to herself.
Afterward, she took out the last box of medicine from the bag and looked closely at the name. She immediately froze.
Shane was attentive indeed, so much that he did not forget to prepare contraceptive pills as well.
Was he so worried that she might get pregnant?
Natalie gripped the box tightly. Even though Shane’s intention was clear for her to take the contraceptive pill, he wasn’t wrong for doing so. However, she didn’t feel good deep inside.
Without much hesitation, Natalie sighed and opened the box. After she had read the instructions a couple of times, she popped two pills into her mouth and downed them with the glass of water on the coffee table.
After that, she picked up her phone and was about to send Shane a message saying she had taken the pills and he didn’t need to worry.
However, a thought popped up in her mind. If Jacqueline or Jasmine picked up his phone and saw the message, then things might turn out badly. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Therefore, Natalie deleted what she had typed in the message and exited the messaging system. She tapped on her call log that had several missed calls notification.
Looking at her call logs, Joyce had called her twice last night. Natalie rubbed her eyebrows and decided to call back.
Joyce was still asleep when she picked up her phone. She sounded drowsy and yawned. “Nat, why are you calling so early?”
“Still early? Have a look at the time.” Natalie glanced at the clock that was hanging at the wall and was rather speechless. “Wake up, I need to ask you something.”
Joyce rubbed her messy hair and sat on her bed. “Nat, what’s the matter?”
“We were drinking together last night, how did I end up with Mr. Shane?” Natalie pursed her lips. “Do you know that had put me in a terrible spot?”
Joyce blinked. “That’s because Mr. Shane offered to send you home. You were drunk last night and we tried hailing a cab for quite a while, then we bumped into Mr. Shane. I asked him to take good care of you. Why? Did something happen between you both?”
Natalie tried to find a way out due to her guilty conscience. “Of... Of course not. It’s just that I threw up in his car.”
Using the previous incident as an excuse to change the topic wasn’t considered lying right?
Joyce laughed. “It’s just vomiting in the car, what’s the big deal? Just clean his car and everything will be fine. Besides, don’t you like Mr. Shane? You should be happy to clean his car for him because then you’ll have an excuse to see him again.”
