Chapter 20 Sleep on a Bed for the First Time
Maggie referred to her opinion and analyzed it carefully. It was true that it was a good role for her. After
all, she was a little-known actress and did not want to rely on her family.
Natalie stood up. "I'll go upstairs."
"Okay, thank you, Nat."
Natalie thought, “You're welcome. You can help me a lot.”
When she opened the door, Kendrick had already washed up and was on the bed, working with his
tablet.
After closing the door, Natalie suddenly remembered something. Did they two have to sleep in a bed
tonight?
It seemed that there was no other place to sleep.
Natalie took her clothes and went into the bathroom. She stayed inside for nearly an hour and dried her
hair before she came out.
She walked to the dressing table, applied skin lotion on her face, and then used eye cream.
Anti-wrinkle around the eyes started from a young age.
Kendrick glanced at her curiously.
He thought, “Does she have to spend an hour taking a shower and twenty minutes applying lotion?”
In the end, Natalie couldn't drag on any longer. She pursed her lips, walked to the other side silently,
and climbed onto the bed.
The bed was so big they could barely touch each other. But she was still nervous.
When she got into bed, she met Kendrick's eyes. They tacitly did not speak.
"I..." Natalie took a deep breath, "I don't have any bad sleeping habits."
“God, what am I talking about? It sounds as if I want to sleep with him.” Natalie thought to herself.
Kendrick put down his tablet and asked, "Is your face any better?"
Natalie nodded. "The swelling has gone down."
"How about your hand?"
"It still hurts."
Just as they were talking, there was a knock on the door.
Natalie jumped off the bed to open the door. A servant brought a bag and told her that Brett had
something to do and left and the bag was an apology gift.
Natalie said thank you, picked up the bag, and looked at it. There were some ointments and fruits in it.
She went to the bed and sat down and said, "Ointments and fruit from Brett."
She didn't look at the ointment, unwrapped the fruit basket, forked a piece, and raised it to his lips. "Eat
one."
“I brushed my teeth."
"Oh, okay." Natalie picked it up and put it in her mouth, "This melon looks very sweet. I can't keep it
until tomorrow." Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
She swallowed the melon and said, "Brett is very irritable. He almost crushed my wrist."
"His temper has always been like this." Kendrick said, "He’s not a bad person." Especially after he had
a relationship breakdown two years ago, Brett’s temper became even worse.
It is said that he was dumped by a woman who played him for a fool.
"He's your brother and sent you ointment and fruit for an apology. You can let it go now," she said
magnanimously.
"Turn your face around." Kendrick took the ointment, unscrewed the cap, dipped it in with a cotton
swab, and applied the ointment.
The breaths of the two intertwined. She could even feel his breath lingering on her cheek.
Kendrick lowered his eyes, poured oil in his hand, and wiped it around her wrist. "Okay."
"Thank you." Natalie pursed her lips. "You protected me today." Honestly, when Natalie saw Kendrick
threaten his sister, she couldn't help but think him hot! So hot that she felt her legs weak.
"When she slaps you, she slaps me in the face."
Natalie thought, “Can you put it less crudely?"
“Is that the only reason?" Natalie asked. Kendrick raised his eyebrows slightly.
"When I was bullied, you also felt bad!" Natalie continued. Kendrick remained silent.
"Don't deny it. I saw the painful look in your eyes."
Natalie leaned closer, becoming more and more bold. "Is it difficult for you to admit it? Just say yes!"
"...Yes!" Surprisingly, he actually admitted it.
Suddenly, her face and wrists didn't hurt anymore. She leaned closer and said, "Actually, I was super
angry at first. But when you came over, I didn’t feel angry anymore." For some reason, she was
confident that Kendrick would always protect her.
"It happened suddenly today. I’m sorry that I came late."
"It’s okay." Natalie said, "But if I failed to save grandpa, it will be horrible. Thinking about it now, I still
feel a little scared."
“The doctor praised you for your professional first aid skills!"
"I learned it before." Natalie admitted directly, "I know medicine." Her eyes shone. "I said that I could
give you a massage. I was not bragging. If your legs are properly massaged and stimulated, they can
recover."
But Kendrick's eyes looked dull. "When I was ten years old, the doctor informed me that I won’t stand
up in my life."
“That is because the medical technology in this world is not developed.” Natalie thought.
She put her hands on his knees. "Don’t say such pessimistic words. They may be cured if the medicine
is more developed in the future. With the rapid development of science and technology, things that
seemed impossible are happening now. People living twenty years ago couldn't predict what would
happen in the future. Unimaginable things that are trapped in the inherent thinking will become
reasonable once we go beyond limits."
Kendrick stared at her, finding how smart the woman was.
If a woman was only beautiful, a man would take a second look at her.
But if she was pretty, smart, and thoughtful, a man couldn’t help but want to get to know her better, and
even fell in love with her.
Natalie moved her hands to check his legs and found that he lost all feeling in his legs.
She thought, “Massage isn't enough anymore. They need acupuncture and surgery to promote the
production of bone marrow neural stem cells. Only then can he stand up again."
“Your hand hurts. Don't move." Kendrick stopped her and said in a calm voice, "It's late. Go to bed!"
Natalie was sweating slightly, feeling thirsty. She picked up the cup, raised her head, and drank boldly.
The slender jawline drew a delicate arc in the air.
Kendrick felt that his lips were a little dry.
She put down the cup and saw a square box with a fruit pattern on it. The box must be chewing gum.
She picked it up and asked, "Chewing gum. Why do you put it here?"
Kendrick's eyes were sharp, and he could tell what it was at a glance.
Before he could say something, Natalie had already opened it.
Soon she realized that it was not chewing gum and flushed. She hurriedly stuffed the box back. Her
face was burning, and she could hardly think.
After a long silence, she stuttered, "Let’s...sleep!"
She raised her hand to turn off the light, and slowly calmed down in the dark. The two breathed silently,
and neither of them fell asleep immediately, but they didn’t speak.
"Natalie Quinn!" After a while, Kendrick's voice suddenly sounded in the quiet room. He was calling her
full name. It was not expected to be good.
"What's it?"
"I might..." After a pause, Kendrick spoke in a hesitant voice. His tone was not as sharp and decisive as
usual. "I can't give you normal sex life."
