Benjamin looked up and saw Natalie.

He quickly sprang up from his seat and smiled, "Good morning, Miss Godfrey."

Natalie's gaze seemed to be scanning him and it finally landed on his pants.

He lowered his head following her gaze, soon blushing frantically.

Peanut shells were clinging all over his pants.

Benjamin coughed, then immediately bent down to brush off the shells on his pants in a haste.

"I see you enjoy eating peanuts," Natalie commented casually.

"No, I don't! I'm just in a good mood today," Benjamin immediately denied it.

"In a good mood?" Natalie suddenly understood what he meant and smiled, "That's true. You can finally avoid their scrutiny. I guess everyone in the hospital already knows who you truly are at this point, huh?" Benjamin's face turned red. Things were even more awkward the moment he realized that that was true.

Every time he went to the hospital's washroom, all the men inside would avoid him and flee.

"Miss Godfrey, why are you here today?" Benjamin changed the topic quickly.

"I'm hereto send Remington off," Natalie replied.

Benjamin's mind churned.

He recalled what Tobias had told him last time, which was to give her some space and respect her decisions.

Based on his observations, Natalie seemed to be uninterested in Remington. She was only being polite to him.

In this case, it would not be a big deal for her to send Remington off.

"He is inside," Benjamin gestured into the ward.

Natalie nodded and entered the ward, and Benjamin followed suit.

Remington had recovered splendidly, and he was allowed to leave the hospital after completing the necessary procedures to be discharged.

The three of them bid each other goodbye at the hospital entrance.

Natalie took the bus home, whereas Benjamin got into his own car and left.

Initially, Benjamin had offered to send Natalie home, but she rejected him.

"I'll take the bus. My apartment is only a few stations away. I'll be fine," She said. Benjamin did not insist.

After all, Tobias had told him to respect Natalie's decisions.
