The thin blanket had a faint smell of cedar and mint, which was the fragrance of the body shampoo
Kendrick usually used.
Natalie wondered, "When did he come?
I didn't feel anything at all."
Natalie rubbed her aching temples, turned on the computer, and found that the document had been
saved.
She was stunned for a moment and thought, "Wait, did he see it?
However, it's already seven o'clock, and he should already be in the company now. After all, he has
been busy coping with organizational structure changes recently."
Natalie went downstairs after washing, and Ashlynn had just brought back her package for her. Ashlynn
was tired and sweaty, suspecting that Natalie had bought a pile of bricks.
"Mrs. Ramsey, I have collected your package for you."
"Thank you. It's heavy, just put it down. It's all books."
Ashlynn put the package aside and said, "Shall I open it for you?"
"OK. Put the books on the bookshelf in my room after you open the package."
When Ashlynn opened it, she saw some books on neurology. She looked deeply up at Natalie and felt
that she was becoming more and more mysterious.
Natalie looked at her surprised expression and asked with a smile, "Why do you look so surprised?"
"Well, these books look very abstruse. Do you understand medicine, Mrs. Ramsey?" asked Ashlynn in
puzzlement.
"Read more books on medicine, and you will also understand it."
Natalie smiled lightly.
"That doesn't make sense. I can't remember it no matter how many times I read a book."
Natalie patted her on the shoulder. "That's because your talent is in other fields. You are very good at
cooking and storing, but I know nothing of all this. I even need to ask you for advice!"
Ashlynn blinked and was deeply moved.
She thought, "Mrs. Ramsey is so sweet and warm!"
Natalie checked her mailbox again during breakfast and found that she still got no response, so she
decided to send Walker another e-mail.
As she tore off a piece of bread and put it in her mouth, her mobile phone rang.
She got a message.
It came from Nigel.
As instructed, he synchronized Kendrick's schedule for this week with her.
Natalie bit the bread and smiled.
She immediately took a picture of her breakfast and sent it to Kendrick.
She also sent him a text message. [Natalie: The bread today is well-baked and tastes very delicious. I
haven't eaten such delicious toast for a long time.]
Kendrick might be in a meeting now, so he didn't reply to her.
Then Natalie sent another message over. [Natalie: Thank you for your blanket. I was too sleepy last
night, so I directly slept in the study.]
Still, she got no reply.
Natalie did not send any more messages to Kendrick.
She guessed he might be too busy right now.
After drinking a cup of coffee, she switched her mobile phone to flight mode and went to the study to
continue writing her project plan.
...
After the morning meeting, Kendrick continued to work on the documents on his computer.
It was not until about noon that he picked up his mobile phone and saw Natalie's messages.
Looking at them, he thought, "However, it's not the time to say good morning to her anymore.
Her messages are all the trivial things in her daily life. I even seem to see her smile in these words.
She's really naivety.
She's like the wind in spring, blowing the pink peach blossoms to bloom gradually.
She really smiles very often recently."
As he thought, Natalie's smiling face suddenly appeared in his mind.
"Mr. Ramsey!" Nigel suddenly pushed the door in and interrupted him.
Kendrick put down his mobile phone and asked, "What's the matter?"
Nigel ran over and reported, "The project in West Goldburg has made progress, but Mr. Wilson still
wants to talk with you in person. I've checked the schedule, and you're free at two o'clock this Sunday.
How about meeting him in your office that day, Mr. Ramsey?"
Kendrick nodded. "Arrange it for me then!"
Nigel quickly recorded this itinerary on the iPad. Then he glanced at Kendrick and thought, "Mr.
Ramsey seems to be smiling faintly. Has anything good happened?
Otherwise, he won't be so easygoing.
Moreover, at the regular morning meeting, even after hearing such an outrageous plan, he did not get
angry, but said gently, 'There are still some problems in the plan which need to be further improved.'
He's really absurdly amiable.
Yesterday, there was still secret talk of Mr. Ramsey being forced to take a hot potato this time. We all
guessed that he would not be in a good mood for a few days.
However, he doesn't seem to be in a bad mood at all.
On the contrary, he seems quite happy.
Is he self-defeating and covering up his sadness with a smile after knowing that he can't resist?
If so, I really feel sad for him."
...
When Natalie, who had spent the day writing the plan, finally freed herself from the computer, she
remembered that her mobile phone was still in flight mode.
She thought, "I must have missed many messages.
Would it be that Kendrick had replied to me, but I didn't see it?"
At the thought of this, Natalie immediately took out her mobile phone.
However, she found that all the new messages were automatically sent by the system.
The conversation between Kendrick and her remained in the last sentence she sent.
She really couldn't believe that Kendrick hadn't replied to her at all.
For a moment, she felt that she was not loved.
Ashlynn brought her iced green bean porridge and said, "Mr. Ramsey said he would come back for
dinner tonight!"
Natalie said, "Tell him not to return."
Ashlynn panicked. "Really?"
"Of course not." Natalie sighed and thought of something else. "Did he send you a message?"
"I was told by Nigel."
Hearing that, Natalie thought helplessly, "Fine!
I'll just take that as he was really too busy to reply to me!"
Natalie scooped up a mouthful of green bean soup and put it in her mouth. Then she exclaimed, "It's so
delicious." She held out her thumb and said, "Ashlynn, when I finish my recent work, I want to learn to
cook from you."
Ashlynn said, "No problem."
When Ashlynn turned to leave, Natalie stopped her, "Wait, are you going to prepare dinner?"
Ashlynn turned back and nodded.
"Yes."
"I'm going with you." Natalie got up from the computer.
"Have you finished your plan, Mrs. Ramsey?"
Natalie walked to Ashlynn and said, "No, just put it aside for the time being. I want to watch you cook,
so that I can learn from you and cook for Kendrick in the future."
"You are really nice to Mr. Ramsey."
"Because he's my husband!" After saying that, Natalie sighed in her heart, "Although he didn't reply or
say sweet words to me, I still have to love him. After all, he's my dear husband!"
...
When Kendrick got home in the evening, he saw many exquisite dishes on the table.
"These are all..." Natalie reached out and scratched a semicircle on the table.
"Cooked by you?"
"Severed by me!"
Natalie had no intention of taking Ashlynn's reward, but she still wanted Kendrick to know what she had
done.
Kendrick said, "Well, thank you."
Natalie drew out a chair and sat down. Then she took the forks and handed him one.
Kendrick reached out and took it, but Natalie tightened her grip and did not give it to him. She stared
into his eyes and asked, "Why didn't you reply to me today?"
She was always straightforward and did not beat around the bush.
"It was noon when I saw it," explained Kendrick.
Natalie did not accept this explanation.
Therefore, she still didn't give him the fork.
"Didn't you say you would reply to me as soon as you saw my message?"
"You didn't ask me anything," said Kendrick.
He was used to answering every question he was asked.
It was his familiar mode of communication.
It was also the most common communication between him and his subordinates.
Natalie was speechless for a while.
Then she tentatively said, "I was sharing my feelings with you. You can also share with me the
interesting things that happened in your daily life. For example, what did you do today?"
"Having meetings," answered Kendrick.
Natalie felt helpless.
She loosened her grip and gave him the fork.
"You should at least send me an emoji when you see my message. Of course, you can't reply to me too
formally or perfunctorily, or I will blacklist you." Natalie turned on her mobile phone and immediately
bombarded Kendrick with a flood of emojis. "If you don't know what to reply to me in the future, just
send me some emojis, proving that you have seen my message."
