Feel the Way You Feel, My Love novel Chapter 1147

Just like that, Natalie and Shane were the only ones left inside the ward.

Noticing that Shane was trying to sit upright, Natalie helped him up and placed a pillow behind his back.

“Connor told me I was unconscious for a few days. How long was I out?” Shane asked while rubbing his forehead.

He hadn’t checked the date as he had just woken up, so he didn’t know how long he was unconscious.

Natalie pulled up a chair and sat down beside the bed. “About eight days.”

Shane was shocked. “That long?”

“Yeah. The doctors said you were hit hard on the head, and that caused a blood clot to form inside which led to you being unconscious. It could’ve easily been removed with a minor surgery, but the small hospital didn’t have the equipment for it. That’s why it dragged on for so long,” Natalie explained while fiddling with his hand.

Shane arched an eyebrow at her. “Small hospital? What do you mean?”

I remember losing consciousness when I hit my head on some rocks in the river, but… the manager and his staff should’ve found me as they were in the river too. There’s no way they’d take me to a small hospital, so something else must’ve happened to me!

Natalie rolled her eyes at him and said sarcastically, “You went missing in the river and ended up being carried downstream by the current. Then, some random woman found you before the manager did and took you away. She then brought you to a small clinic in town. Congratulations on having such a romantic encounter even when you’re unconscious, Darling!”

A faint smile formed on Shane’s lips when he noticed that she was being jealous because that meant she cared about him.

“Who was she?” Shane asked.

Shane’s frown deepened when he heard that. She tried to hide me from my family because she fell for me? There’s no way I would ever accept such a selfish and twisted form of affection! Besides, there are tons of women out there who have done crazier things to win me over, so what makes her think I’d take a liking to her? Even if she saved my life, the only feeling I have for her is disgust!

“Have you given her a reward for saving me? If not, you can have Silas pay her some money as a token of appreciation,” Shane said coldly.

Natalie shrugged. “I did make her an offer when I found you, but she thought I was insulting her integrity and refused to accept it. Having no other choice, I could only tell her to reconsider it and contact us when she has thought it through.”

Shane arched an eyebrow once again.

Paying someone money is insulting their integrity? This is the first time I’ve ever heard of such logic! Looks like this Lucy person isn’t quite right in the head!

“Fine, we’ll give her some time to think about it, then. If she still doesn’t know what she wants, we’ll have Silas approach her and offer either a house or a huge sum of money. It’s best to return the favor as soon as possible,” Shane said.
