Chapter 487
After hanging up the phone. Natalie prepared to lead Draco off the plane.
“Please line up and exit the plane in an orderly fashion.”
“Mr. Wesley, let’s get off the plane first, and take you to a hospital for a full examination.’
Natalie supported Draco’s arm with one hand, holding both of their backpacks with her
other one.
In the past, Natalie never would have allowed herself such intimate contact with Draco, as
it wasn’t appropriate. But this was a very specific and potentially dangerous situation, so
she didn’t have time to worry about propriety. She continued to gently hold onto Draco’s
arm.
This warmed Draco’s heart. He smiled and reassured Natalie, “I’m just feeling a little
listless. I got to bed too late last night. It’s normal. Don’t be nervous.”
Natalie smiled back at him but still felt guilty.
“Jorge attacked you because you were trying to protect me. I’m responsible for it. I won’t
rest assured until I know you’re safe.”
The sweetly obstinate expression on Natalie’s face made Draco smile in return.
He teased.. “If I were as badly injured as all that, I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to get off
the plane by now. As you said before, Jorge probably hasn’t had the chance to take action
yet.”
Could it really be so simple? Natalie had a bad feeling about the whole thing.
Natalie suspected that there was something fishy and Jorge must have done something to
Draco when he pushed him.
However, she didn’t tell Draco all her doubts, at least not without proper evidence. It had
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbeen a chaotic scene, and Natalie hadn’t been able to see it all clearly. It was currently all
just her suspicion.
But Natalie couldn’t rest assured unless Draco received a thorough check-up at the
hospital.
Natalie helped Draco off of the plane and back through the boarding gate.
Brandon was wandering back and forth at the gate, looking frantically through the crowd
who had just come out.
When he finally saw Natalie, he immediately ran over.
Natalie noticed Brandon instantly. He was too tall not to notice! She hesitated for a
moment, looking over at Draco.
“Go ahead. Your husband must be very worried about you.”
With a gentle smile, Draco let go of Natalie’s wrist.
Natalie nodded back with her own smile.
Then, out of pure need. Natalie rushed over to Brandon.
Once the two of them reached each other amidst the crowd, they instantly clung to one
another tightly.
It took Natalie a while to calm down after all of that excitement. She continued to wrap her
arms around Brandon.
For this moment, everything around them seemed to disappear, and they were the only
two people in the world.
“Let me check if you’re hurt.”
Brandon let go of Natalie and was about to roll up her sleeves.
Natalie smiled and waved his hand away.
“I’m really fine,”she said.
“I’ll check you when we get home, then.”
Brandon relaxed and hugged Natalie again.
“How did you know that Jorge was on the plane?” Natalie asked curiously, as she leaned
against his chest.
“He followed you right after you boarded the plane. I saw a suspicious-looking man and
asked Sean to look into it, but I didn’t expect it was really Jorge. I thought I was just being
paranoid.”
Brandon began to worry over the situation.
How did Jorge manage to escape from police custody and get to the airport all by himself?
It was very likely that Jorge had received help from someone.
Looking over at Brandon and Natalie hugging each other, Draco felt at a loss.
He slowly walked over to them with his luggage and prepared to say goodbye and then
leave.
“Thank you for your help today, Mr. Wesley.”
Brandon turned around and looked at Draco.
With a faint smile, Draco replied detachedly, “You’re welcome. Natalie’s my employer. It
was my duty to keep her safe.”
Natalie let go of Brandon.
Guessing that Draco didn’t intend to go to the hospital after all, she began to fret.
“Mr. Wesley, you promised me you would go to the hospital and get a check-up.”
With a helpless smile, Draco raised his hand to look at his watch and said, “I don’t have
time to go to the hospital now. Natalie. The flight’s been delayed. I don’t know when the
next one will be. I’m worried that we might not arrive at the show in time.”
Just then, an idea occurred to Natalie. She looked over to Brandon with her clear eyes and
said, “That’s easy. Brandon can help us!”
“Okay.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBrandon looked at her with love in his eyes. He said, “You two should go to the hospital
now, and I’ll get in touch with my people to arrange for a helicopter to take you to
Northcliffe later.”
Glancing over at the airport’s world clock, Brandon said, “You should arrive in Northcliffe
at 2 PM. local time.”
After hesitating for a while, Draco nodded in agreement.
At the moment, there was no better solution.
However, he still didn’t think there was any actual reason to go to the hospital.
“I think I’m going to pass on the hospital,” Draco said.
“I’m really fine. Instead. Natalie and I can take the time to discuss the runway order for
the fashion show.”
After all. Draco had only just checked his arm on the plane.
There was no wound to be found.
Natalie raised her voice firmly and said, “No, you have to go to the hospital.”
She wouldn’t be able to rest assured until he had gotten a clean bill of health from a
medical professional. Natalie then took Draco straight to the hospital.
With his cap again concealing his face, Jorge managed to sneak off the plane amongst the
passengers. He got off the plane and followed the crowd to the exit.
Seeing several uniformed policemen at the gate, Jorge deliberately lowered the brim of his
hat and tried to slink away.
Just when he thought Jorge had escaped, however, a cop approached him and took out a
pair of handcuffs, which shone silver in the reflected light.
“Sir, will you mind coming with us?”
Jorge muttered a curse, turned around, and ran away.
Because of his limp, he wasn’t able to run very fast, however, and he soon fell to the
ground.
