Jensen thought of Natalie’s personality and how furious she’d be once she woke up and learned she could never hold a pen again. He knew he wasn’t the right person to be around her now. Having someone else take care of her would probably be for the best.

“Fine. I’ll pay you triple. Just take good care of her.”

Phantom quickly agreed.

Natalie was pushed into her room.

She woke up from the pain.

Staring at the stark white ceiling, the sharp throb in her fingers brought all the memories flooding back.

“How’s my hand? Can I still draw? Can I still hold a pen?”

Natalie sat up with a jolt, grabbing Phantom’s arm with her left hand, panic all over her face.

Phantom looked at her but couldn’t bring herself to speak.

The look in Natalie’s eyes turned ice–cold the moment she saw him.

How could he be so cruel?

Even if he wanted to protect his crush, she had never tried to compete. She had let go. All she wanted was to reclaim what had been rightfully hers–what was wrong with that?

Tears welled up in Natalie’s eyes, though even she couldn’t tell whether it was from pain or rage.

“Get out! Get the hell out!”

She grabbed the pillow beside her and threw it at him.
