Chapter 235

Natalia shoved him away in an instant.

"Hamilton, can you not? Please!"

But Hamilton, unfazed, cupped her chin and kissed her anyway.

Natalia stiffened, and just as she was about to push him away, he released her.

It was a fleeting touch.

"Don't worry, everything's going to be alright," he whispered softly in her ear before turning and walking away.

Natalia stared blankly at the now-closed bathroom door, taking a moment to gather her thoughts.

He was probably just teasing her.

A slight sourness touched Natalia's nose.

It took her a while to force a smile.

Mom will be okay.

She had to believe that.

But for some reason, this time, she felt unusually anxious.

After showering, Natalia emerged to find Hamilton on the phone, speaking in hushed tones.

He quickly finished the call as she approached.

"Why are you out with wet hair?" he asked.

Then, he went to the bedroom, fetched a hairdryer, and sat down on the couch.

"Come here."

Natalia walked over, intending to sit on the couch.

But Hamilton pulled her onto his lap instead.

She tensed up immediately.
