Chapter 44 Kendrick Kissed Her.
Nigel asked, "Are you going to help her?"
Kendrick sneered, asking, "Why will I help her?"
Nigel asking, "So why do you want her to know it?"
"I'm ready to kick her out, too." Kendrick spoke calmly.
Nancy's shares had been reduced by cashing out a lot in early years. Now her share was too small to have power in the group.
She would be in a panic after knowing this.
His mother naturally didn't want to take a side. It were her brother and sister. It was wrong to pick anyone.
For years, Kendrick's uncle only cared his own interest.
He stayed out of disputes among his siblings.
Then Nancy had to ask Kendrick for help through her husband Chad.
Kendrick would agree.
He would took Nancy's shares, and be defeated by Melvin at the board meeting, so he could kick her out of the broad. Nigel couldn't understand.
Kendrick didn't explain, saying, "I'm going to Foxley on business tomorrow. Tell Natalie about my trip."
"All right."
"What's special in Foxley?" "Kendrick looked up and asked.
"Special food!" He emphasized.
"Rose pancake, roasted duck." Nigel only thought of these two.
"Well!" Kendrick nodded and casually said, "I think she likes them all."
She meant no one but Mrs. Ramsey.
As he said this, as if he remembered something, a faint but distinct smile showed on her face.
Nigel thought his boss really fell in love.
Natalie received the message and asked, "Did you buy my ticket?"
Nigel found it was hard to answer.
"This business trip is hasty, and I will take care of the president."
Natalie said, "I'll pack his bags."
Nigel said, "I'll send you the list."
When she was very young, her teacher's wife always helped her teacher pack his luggage when he was on business trips, and she also helped occasionally.
It was a very sweet thing to help with packing for a husband who had a a business trip.
She had fantasized about her marriage, but could never see her husband's face clearly.
Because she hadn't fell in love with anyone in so many years.
Now she had been a wife for quite some time.
She adapt it well.
Kendrick's things were simple. Natalie followed Nigel's list to pack them up for him.
Baron would follow him this time.
After all, it was a three-day business trip.
He used to do all the packing.
Now Natalie did this job, so it was a lot easier for him.
When she collected Kendrick's underwear, she noticed that the men's underwear were mostly boxers, and the front of them were bulging.
Inexplicably, she thought of something and blushed.
And, she heard from her best friend.
A man with a straight nose.
There was usually bigger.
Well, Kendrick's nose was like a slide.
Natalie slapped herself in the face.
What was she thinking about?
She totally thought something she shouldn't think.
She folded them for him at once and put them in the trunk. Then she exhaled.
Ashlynn who took the suit back saw her and asked in surprise, "Mrs. Ramsey, do you still have a fever?"
Natalie said, "I... No."
"Why is your face so red?"
"I just had a sympathetic excitation, increased production of catecholamines like norepinephrine, dilated capillaries, and rapid congestion in the subcutaneous tissue." Ashlynn was totally shocked and confused.
Kendrick had a three-day business trip in Foxley.
He went to partner with an established local smart hotel as a pilot to promote the transformation of Ramsey Group hotels.
It was an important opening battle.
So he had to go.
"Rose pancake, chestnut pie, roasted duck..." Natalie said the name of the snack, then asked, "Can you bring all this?"
"Yes!" Kendrick asks, "Is there anything else besides food?"
She couldn't think of anything but food.
"I'll go for three days." He said, "Come back on Friday."
"Then I'll take you to the airport tomorrow!"
"The airport is too far away. Get some sleep!" Kendrick's voice was soft, saying, "It cost a lot of time on the way."
"I've packed everything for you. I'll take you downstairs tomorrow."
He nodded, and asked, "Call me if you need. Sometimes I can't read the message on time."
"Don't worry. I won't bother you." Natalie smiled and said, "After nine o'clock at night, I will make a video call."
"OK!"
Natalie was a little unhappy for she hadn't seen him for three days.
She seemed to have been used to such days.
She could see him every day.
Talk to him.
Unconsciously.
She had been around him for so long.
In the evening, she was in his room, pointing to the suitcase and saying, "Everything is according to the list. I have checked it. And I put the essential oil for sleeping in it. Do you remember how to use it?" Kendrick looked at her and said nothing.
"Have you forgotten? Natalie pulled the oil out of the suitcase, then sat back down on the bed and said, "Spread your hands out."
What was the matter with this guy?
Last time he must be absent-minded and didn't listen to her.
So he forgot so soon.
Natalie dropped the oil on his palm and taught him again. She sighed, "What should you do without me?"
Kendrick said, "You promised you would always be here for me, remember?"
"Yes!" Natalie rubbed the oil on his temples, stuck out her little finger and said, "Pinky swear!"
Kendrick reached out.
"I will always be here for you." Natalie hooked his finger and said solemnly, "Always means always, and I won't leave you for even an hour!"
Kendrick hooked her little finger, too.
He stared into the girl's rosy eyes.
There was a voice inside of him right now.
[Natalie, don't lie to me. I don't what I will do.]
It was like bursting from his soul.
It was abrupt, but clear enough.
Kendrick got up at five in the morning to go to the airport. It was just dawn.
When he came downstairs, Natalie was waiting for him.
She got up early today.
She used to sleep at this hour.
"I'll have breakfast with you." She said, "Then I'll take you to your car."
In the little courtyard, at the end of the farewell, she hesitated a moment in the morning light, and asked: "You have nothing say to me?"
She frowned slightly.
There was hope in her eyes.
It was like a dewy white orchid on an early summer morning.
Fresh and dainty.
Kendrick raised his hand, saying, "Come here."
Natalie bent down and put her ear to it.
A kiss fell on her ear.
He kissed gently, like a feather brushing her heart.
Her eyes widened.
What?
Kendrick kissed her.
The first time!
Active!
Kiss her.
"I'm going!"
The man's husky, deep voice rang out before pulling her back to reality.
She was speechless for several seconds, then she waved, and said, "Take care"
As the Maybach 62s drove away, Natalie was still standing there.
She touched her ear.
There seemed to be some of his temperature still there.
It was as if she could feel his warm breath on her cheek.
Ethereal but true enough.
Natalie smiled, and slowly her smile got bigger and bigger.
At the end, only a smile left on her beautiful and delicate face.
