Natalie gently caressed her warm cheeks. "Yes, it doesn't hurt anymore."

"Good." The corner of Tobias's mouth lifted into a smirk.

Natalie stared at the infusion bottle and frowned. "How long will this take, Mr. Whitlock?"

"It won't be too long. But you'll be kept in the ward for observation."

Natalie snapped her head towards him.

She has thought that she could go back after the shot.

"Does that mean I won't be able to leave until tomorrow?"

"It's for the best."

She lowered her gaze and murmured, "That means I can't go to work."

"That's right."

After hesitating for a moment, she shook her head and muttered, "I feel a little bad."

Her condition was not that serious anyway. She could still go to work if she wanted to.

"It's fine because I won't be going to work either."

Her eyes widened in disbelief.

Tobias was willing to stay back with her instead of going to work!

She panicked in an instant. "But you have so much to do, Mr. Whitlock! How could you abandon your work just to look after me? Your work is important." "They're not as important as you are," he replied calmly.

Her heart skipped a beat.

He chuckled and patted her face gently in assurance. "Stop overthinking, Natalie. Get some rest, and you'll feel better soon."

"What about you, Mr. Whitlock?"

"I'll sit here and stay with you."

Natalie pointed to the hospital cot across her, "You could sleep there, Mr. Whitlock."

He nodded and said, "Alright, you go to sleep first."

She hesitated for a moment and closed her eyes.

She didn't want Tobias to neglect the company for her sake.
