Chapter 36 I Would Protect You
Chapter 36 I Would Protect You
Women's minds were always complicated.
Even with such a direct character as Natalie.
When she met her loved one, she couldn't be consistent between words and her true feeling.
Kendrick's explanation was essentially useless.
"I don't take her words to heart."
Natalie frowned, feeling that there was something wrong with this sentence.
But she quickly reviewed herself that she must be too hypocritical.
It's okay to be angry, and it's okay not to be angry.
What should he do?
What's more, Kendrick, who had always cherished words like gold, had spoken so many words today.
Natalie told herself to forget about it.
Thinking of this, she turned her face again, and solemnly said, "Forget about me in the past, and remember me in the present and in the future." Starlight flashed in her eyes, "Is that okay?"
"No matter what the reason was, and as long as the result was good, he could just stick to it."
These words came to Kendrick's mind.
He met her gaze, and slowly uttered a word, "Okay!"
When Ashlynn went upstairs to deliver medicine to Natalie at night, she met Kendrick at the stairs.
Ashlynn said, "I'll get some ointment for Mrs. Ramsey."
Kendrick nodded.
Ashlynn said, "Then I will go to Mrs. Ramsey's room."
Kendrick didn't answer.
But he stood in front of her.
Ashlynn turned her head around, and tentatively passed the ointment forward, "How about, sir, you send it!"
Kendrick took the ointment, raised his eyes and asked, "You still have something to do, right?"
Something to do?
Ashlynn said, "I have finished all of my work."
But facing Kendrick's deep black eyes, Ashlynn nodded quickly, "Yes, I have to go to the greenhouse to water the flowers."
Kendrick raised his face and said, "Ok!"
He pushed the wheelchair to the door of Natalie's room and knocked.
"Come in!"
Kendrick opened the door and said, "Ashlynn has something to do, so I'm here to bring you the ointment."
Natalie was lying naked on the bed, and when she heard Kendrick's voice, she pulled the quilt over.
"Oh, okay. I just washed it with cold water." Natalie lay on the pillow and turned to look at him and said, "Then can you apply the medicine for me? I can't see behind." Kendrick moved closer. Holding the corner of the quilt with his hand, he paused for a moment, but still opened it.
He didn't see it clearly in the car just now.
Now in the light of the room, her back was slender, clean and curvy, with red marks all over it.
Kendrick was stunned.
He recalled the scene where she rushed over to protect him in her arms.
It was like in the car accident many years ago, his mother desperately protected him.
He later lost his parents forever.
Withdrawing his thoughts, Kendrick unscrewed the ointment and applied it to her back with a cotton swab.
His expression was focused and the movements were gentle.
He was silent.
"Why don't you talk?" Natalie joked with him, "Is it because my back is beautiful?"
Kendrick paused slightly, and said in a calm tone, "You really like talking."
"You don't like to talk, and if I don't talk, then how can we communicate with each other? Should we just make eye contact every day? That's too boring!"
"You used to..." Kendrick paused, "be silent."
"People sure change." Natalie said, "We agreed in the car just now that we'll forget about the past. So don't talk about my past or I will get angry. Once I get angry, the consequence will be very serious." "Do you also want to put soup on my face?" Kendrick teased.
Natalie snorted arrogantly, and said sullenly, "Am I fierce just now?"
Natalie was really angry. When she thought that the soup would be poured on Kendrick's handsome face, she couldn't control her hands.
"No." Kendrick said, "If you are bullied, naturally you have to fight back."
"With your words, I feel at ease."
Kendrick heard something strange.
He put away the ointment and said, "Don't do this again in the future."
"Why?" Natalie was puzzled.
"It's very dangerous." Kendrick frowned and said, "If the soup is very hot, you will go directly to the hospital."
"I didn't think too much." Natalie lay on the pillow, "The situation was too critical at that time, so I just went straight to you."
"Think twice before doing anything, and don't put yourself in danger." Kendrick said in a deep voice.
"But the one who will gets hurt like that will be you." Natalie's voice was firm, "I will not allow such a thing to happen!"
Kendrick remained silent.
"No!" It took a long time for Kendrick's voice to reappear, and it seemed that he was sneering, "I'm such a person, it's not worth it for you to do this."
His parents both died in order to save him.
This thing had brought him tremendous psychological pressure.
For twenty years,
he would still blame himself and fall into deep pain.
It was he who wanted to go to the amusement park that day.
If it wasn't for him, nothing like that would have happened.
Nancy said that his waywardness led to the death of his parents.
He also thought so.
Because of the deep emotional entanglement, he still could not forgive himself, and he had been receiving psychological treatment. After that, he no longer allowed himself to be emotional. As long as there was love, there would be pain.
Once he abandoned all emotions and completely closed his heart, he would never feel pain again.
"Don't say that."Although Natalie couldn't see his face, she could still feel his emotional fluctuations from his breathing, and her voice became soft but firm, "You are worth it, all the tenderness and care in this world, you are worth it. I couldn't control those people who spoke ill of you, denied you, and suppressed you before, but now that I'm here. I won't allow them to exist, and I won't allow you to suffer any harm." Natalie's words were like a spring breeze blowing on his desolate heart.
But Kendrick's face was a bit confused.
"Why?"
"We are husband and wife, and we are the closest people in this world to each other. The meaning of marriage is to support each other."Natalie said solemnly, "You also protect me, and I protect you, isn't it normal?"
Kendrick frowned slightly. He only protected her a few times out of responsibility.
Was he worth it?
Suddenly, many kinds of emotions arose in Kendrick's heart that he had not had before. He tried his best to restrain them, but he couldn't stop them from spreading wantonly.
Kendrick lowered his head and saw his legs, all his emotions collapsed in an instant. His eyes became calm again without any emotion, "I won't be, so grateful."
He had already carried such a deep emotional burden.
It would always hurt him when thinking about it.
If someone got hurt for him again, he couldn't bear it.
"I don't care!" Natalie became anxious, and she sat up all of a sudden, "I just want to protect you. This time I have blocked the soup for you, and next time I'm willing to even block the gun."
From the very first day here, she decided to treat him well, and the vow she made would never be changed easily.
However, Natalie forgot an important thing when she got excited.
She didn't wear anything on her upper body!
Her snow-white body fell into Kendrick's sight clearly and directly without any cover.
