Natalie's eyes were now entirely red. She stared at Tobias and spat, "I hate you, Tobias Whitlock!"

Tobias was taken aback by the obvious hatred in her eyes. He was rooted to the ground.

Then, Natalie stormed out of the ward.

She was unable to accept the fact that she had been assaulted by him in front of her own son.

Meanwhile, Hayden tottered behind her.

His little legs were not fast enough for him to keep up with her.

"Natalie! Wait for me, wait for me," He shouted from behind.

Natalie ignored Hayden's call and did not slow down for him.

She was too embarrassed by the incident earlier.

"Ouch!" Suddenly, Hayden cried out in pain.

Natalie's body stiffened.

She turned around and saw Hayden kneeling on the ground.

He must have tripped and fell.

At that moment, Natalie couldn't care about anything else.

She ran over and scooped him up into her arms, asking, "Are you alright, Hayden?"

She was worried sick.

Hayden wrapped his little arms around her neck and comforted her instead, "I'm fine. I fell on purpose so you would stop."

Natalie's eyes widened.

He flashed her a mischievous grin, "I knew it. You still care about me."

His words tugged at her heart.
