Echoes Of a Forsaken Heart

Chapter 282

Natalia was momentarily stunned, then quickly responded.

"Alright, when are you leaving? I'll pack your bags."

Hamilton chuckled, "No need, I'm leaving shortly. Keep safe these next few days, and always have Killian with you when you go out. I'll be back soon." Natalia nodded, "How long will you be gone this time?"

"Three days," Hamilton's voice softened.

"When I return, shall we go get our marriage license?"

Natalia was taken aback.

Hamilton laughed, "Natalia, wait for me."

With that, he ended the call.

Natalia stared at her phone, a smile unwittingly forming on her lips.

Scarlett appeared beside her, wrapping an arm around her shoulder.

"Chatting with your man again?"

Natalia smiled, "When did you get here?"

Scarlett pouted, "Elliott dragged me over here, insisting I check out their hospital's facilities. As if that matters without Emeric!"

Natalia clicked her tongue, "Have you found out anything about Emeric yet?"

Scarlett shrugged, "Why bother? Did you investigate Hamilton before you two got together?"

Natalia was left speechless.

She quickly changed the subject, "When do you start your residency?"

"End of this month."

"And what about you and Emeric?"

Scarlett winked, "I've got a dinner date with Emeric tonight. Who knows, maybe after dinner we might..."

She was interrupted as Elliott walked in.

"You have a dinner date with Emeric?"

Scarlett's smile vanished instantly.

"So what if I do?"

Elliott scoffed, "Do you know Emeric's always hitting the nightclubs?"

Scarlett's face was full of scorn, "As if you're any different."

Elliott was left speechless.
