Echoes Of a Forsaken Heart

Chapter 272

Natalia was caught off guard when he kissed her.

She snapped back to reality and pushed him away.

But Hamilton was relentless, deepening the kiss even further.

"Natalia, did you hear me?"

Ryan's voice was right in her ear, and Hamilton picked up his phone and directly said to the other end, "Mr. Holzer, you're interrupting, got it?"

After hanging up, Natalia was visibly flustered. "Hamilton, what are you doing?"

Hamilton wrapped his arms around her waist and lifted her up.

"Stay away from Ryan, Natalia."

Natalia sighed in frustration, "We hardly ever talk outside of work."

Hamilton's expression was still grim. "You can contact other people for work, but why is it always Ryan who contacts you? Isn't there anyone else in the Foreign Affairs Department?"

Natalia frowned, "Hamilton, I can't control who contacts me for work, and neither can he. I promise you, there's nothing more than work between us. Can you please stop making a fuss about it?" Hamilton just chuckled, "You might think it's nothing, but he might not."

"He's not without boundaries."

"Sometimes, an outsider sees the clearest."

Before she could say anything else, Hamilton's lips were on hers again.

Natalia tried to push him away, but Hamilton had somehow produced a tie and bound her wrists with it.

"Natalia, focus on me now."

Hamilton's hand slipped under her dress as he spoke.

Natalia wasn't unwilling, but she was definitely annoyed at the moment.

So, there was some struggle.

Afterwards, her wrists bore red marks from the tie.

Hamilton untied her and kissed her wrists apologetically.

"Did it hurt?"

Natalia kicked him.

"Hamilton, you jerk!"

But he remained on top of her. "Natalia, you didn't mind when we did it while you were on the phone with Lionel before. Why do you care so much now?" Natalia glared at the man above her, furious.
