Chapter 176 Absence Makes the Heart Grow Fonder
The airport was empty, allowing Natalie to release her emotions to the fullest.
Natalie had been anxious and tense every day for the past five days.
Fortunately, in the end, all the results were reassuring.
Especially when Owen came to help Natalie, she felt at ease.
When Natalie got in the car, she gradually calmed down. She sniffed and said, "Susan is already
awake and under observation, but she's okay."
Kendrick took out a tissue to wipe Natalie's tears.
He thought, "It turns out that she is a crybaby."
After all, Natalie had experienced life and death personally, and who she faced was Kendrick's family,
which was also one of her few relatives in this world. Therefore, it was normal for Natalie to have
emotional ups and downs.
At this time, Natalie just needed a man who could support her without any words and who could just
wait for her emotions to dissipate.
Natalie was always calm and even a little arrogant to the outside world. Even though she deliberately
restrained her high-wattage aura, she could not hide it completely.
Only in front of Kendrick, Natalie could cry and laugh and didn't feel ashamed at all.
As the saying went, "Absence makes the heart grow fonder."
Natalie wanted to say a few more words, but Kendrick stopped her, "You need to get some rest, and
we'll talk about it when we get home."
"I've taken a break on the plane!" Natalie leaned on Kendrick's shoulder and said, "I'm not sleepy at all
after I see you."
Kendrick chuckled. He turned his face and gently kissed Natalie's forehead. Then he said, "Are you
hungry? What do you want to eat?"
Hearing this, Natalie was so excited and she told Kendrick about several kinds of food in one breath.
"That's so much. Aren't you afraid of retention of food?" Kendrick was surprised, but still asked Ashlynn
to prepare the food.
Kendrick was in a good mood and ordered Ashlynn in a gentle tone. He even thanked Ashlynn.
Hearing Kendrick's words, Ashlynn was scared and hurriedly said, "You're welcome. This is my duty."
Natalie looked at Kendrick and said with a smile, "You scared her. It seems that you usually treat her
harshly!"
Kendrick pinched Natalie's mouth into a flat mouth, looking at her annoyed appearance, with a smiling
face.
In the past few days when Natalie was away, Kendrick had no appetite for food and drinks, and all he
wanted to do was fly to her and stay with her.
The moment Kendrick saw Natalie coming out of the airport, he was relieved, but he didn't show it.
Natalie also wanted to pinch Kendrick's mouth, but Kendrick avoided her. She was not happy,
muttering, "It's not fair. I'm going to be angry."
Hearing this, Kendrick obediently did not move anymore.
Natalie held Kendrick's face in both hands and was about to kiss him on the lips.
The atmosphere was intimate.
Natalie thought, "Maybe I can have a romantic deep kiss. I saw many couples having a long and deep
kiss on the street in the square."
Suddenly, Natalie's cell phone rang.
It was a colleague calling.
She said, "As of 1 a.m. on November 11th, the total sales of Flower Face have exceeded 15 million
dollars."
In other words, the goal set by Natalie was achieved.
The great joy stunned Natalie and made her forget to kiss Kendrick. She held Kendrick's face and said,
"I've accomplished my goal."
15 million dollars!
It was a record-breaking sales volume.
Natalie thought, "I must hold my head high when I come to the company after I have a good rest.
Everyone has to praise me!"
Natalie calculated her annual dividend for a while. After knowing the result was a huge number, she
couldn't control her excitement and said, "Am I going to be a rich woman?"
Natalie had never seen so much money in her life.
Although the money was not enough for Kendrick to buy a ring, he was still infected by Natalie's joy. He
looked at Natalie with a gentle smile and asked, "What is the first thing you want to do after being a rich
woman?"
"Keep a handsome man..."
Before Natalie could finish her words, Kendrick's face darkened in an instant.
Kendrick thought, "Well, sure enough. When a woman gets rich, she ceases to be faithful."
Natalie scratched her hair and said tensely, "Oh, repay the money, right? I'll pay you back right away!"
She directly transferred a huge sum of money to Kendrick and added a note that it was the fee for her
sugar baby.
Kendrick was speechless.
But he thought having a sugar mama seemed to be good after a second thought.
After accepting the money, Kendrick also transferred twice as much money to Natalie.
Natalie was puzzled and asked, "What are you doing?"
"You can buy all the things you want!" Kendrick reminded Natalie.
Kendrick thought, "To love someone is to buy her everything she wants!"
Natalie thought Kendrick was so crazy!
Natalie immediately opened the shopping application and paid for everything she wanted.
Perhaps to celebrate the special day, someone set off fireworks over the city at midnight.
Natalie, who had been single for more than 20 years, was finally no longer alone this year.
She looked at the sky full of fireworks outside the car window and thought, "Fate is really amazing. A
year ago, I could never guess what would happen today. I am so lucky."
...
The two of them held their fingers tightly in the car until they reached home.
It was warm in the house.
The servants had already prepared warm soup waiting for Natalie to come back.
The warmth of home made Natalie feel that her choice was not wrong.
She thought solemnly, "Since I'm capable, I want everyone around me to be safe and healthy and no
longer suffer from illness. I have to protect myself too! I must be sure to be healthy so that I can spend
money freely! Otherwise, I will make so much money in vain. I still want to be a rich woman!"
Kendrick was talking to Alin over there.
Alin said that Susan's eyesight had recovered completely and her health was gradually improving,
calling it a miracle.
Alin also thanked Natalie specifically, saying that she had brought good luck.
Kendrick hung up the phone and looked out the window at the beautiful fireworks in the sky.
He wondered if he should also believe in luck.
It seemed that from one day on, he had gone from an unloved child to a much-loved man.
All his wishes could be fulfilled.
Both his work and life had become simple and easy.
Kendrick turned his face to look at Natalie and found that she was sitting at the dining table for a voice
conference. He guessed that she was probably sharing the joy with her colleagues.
Kendrick looked at the soup with just a few mouthfuls on the table. He knocked on the table and said,
"If you don't eat, it will get cold."
"It's over soon!" said Natalie.
Kendrick frowned and said, "It's so late. You can talk about it tomorrow!"
Natalie's Bluetooth headset ran out of juice, so Kendrick's voice was heard when the phone was on
speaker.
"Natalie, who is talking?"
"My husband!"
"It scared me! I thought it was Mr. Ramsey!" The colleague in charge of operations patted her chest
and said, "I almost had a heart attack after hearing such a familiar and scary voice at night!"
Natalie was speechless!
Kendrick was also speechless and thought, "What's wrong with my voice? Why does my voice sound
scary?"
Before Kendrick could ask, Natalie put her hand over his mouth.
Natalie shook her head, signaling to Kendrick not to talk.
Kendrick refrained from speaking, holding the soup and feeding Natalie one spoon at a time. Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
The meeting didn't end until 1:30 a.m. At this moment, Natalie finally felt sleepy. After a long yawn, she
looked at Kendrick in a daze and asked, "Please blow-dry my hair later, okay?"
