Echoes Of a Forsaken Heart

Chapter 280

Natalia stared at the ring on her finger, still somewhat dazed.

She wasn't sure if saying 'yes' was the right decision.

Their issues hadn't been resolved yet.

Especially the attitude of the Fowler family, which had been all too clear tonight.

And then there was Eveleen.

But every time Hamilton asked her, she couldn't bear to say no.

Hamilton, wrapped in a towel, emerged from the bathroom.

Seeing Natalia lost in thought, he chuckled.

He hugged Natalia, pulling her into his embrace.

"Like it?"

Natalia nodded with a smile, as Hamilton playfully nibbled on her finger.

"Why do you look so worried? Having second thoughts?"

Looking at Hamilton, Natalia confessed, "Hamilton, this time I've really given myself to you completely. Please, don't leave me behind." Hamilton's gaze deepened. After a long pause, he promised, "Natalia, no matter what happens, I won't leave you."

Natalia smiled and nodded, and Hamilton leaned in for a kiss.

Natalia pushed him gently away.

"Not tonight."

"Why?" Hamilton teased, pinching her waist. "Just got engaged and I'm already being denied?"

Natalia frowned, "I've been feeling a bit off all day, kind of like I'm about to start my period, but it's not quite that."

Hamilton raised an eyebrow, his hand resting on her abdomen.

"Does it hurt?"
