Frowning, Natalie replied. âDonât say stuff like that in front of Elizabeth.Sheâs already been through enough! Hearing that kind of talk will only make her feel worse.â
Right after she said that, she looked back and saw Elizabeth standing at the door of the doctorâs office, seemingly embarrassed.
âThatâs enough.â
Natalie cleared her throat, tugging on Brandonâs shirt and blushing uncontrollably.
Elizabeth probably heard Brandonâs snide remark earlier.
Seeing as her friend looked dispirited. Natalie stood up and tried to explain, âPlease donât take our words to heart. We were just joking around.â
âHonestly, itâs okay.Youâre right, anyway.â
Elizabeth looked down, visibly disheartened. She felt really ashamed of herself.
âIâm so sorry for what happened.This is all my fault.None of this wouldâve happened if not for me.I almost put your lives in danger!â
Both Brandon and Natalie had helped her a lot.
If it werenât for them, she and her aunt wouldâve been corpses by now.
Now that she had cairned down. Elizabeth realized that she deserved happened to her. She shouldnât blame anyone else for all her misfortune.
âDonât say things like that.Jorge is the bad guy here, not you!â Natalie countered.
She glanced at Elizabethâs bandaged hands and Biting her lower l*p. Elizabeth fell silent for seconds âThe doctor said that the injuries are serious and that I needed to remain in the hospital for a few days for further observation.â
She then turned to one of the rooms and said, âFortunately, my aunt is fine.The doctor said that sheâll be fine once she regains consciousness.â
Tears were welling up in her eyes.
âThis is all my- fault.Because of my incapacity to see the truth before, all of this happened!â
Sniffling and looking down. Elizabeth finally fell silent.Natalie wasnât sure what to do now.She turned to Brandon and pouted at him.She thought that he really shouldnât have said those hurtful things.
Knowing that he did go too far. Brandon scratched his nose, stood up. and approached Elizabeth.
Thereafter, Natalie held Brandonâs hand.He looked into her eyes, implying that he knew what she was trying to tell him âI really was just joking around.I didnât mean any of it.Iâm sorry for being insensitive.â
It was rare for him to apologize to anyone, but he had to.
Natalie was upset with him.
In truth, he didnât care so much about what he had said.
The only reason he helped Elizabeth was for Natalieâs sake.He said those things because he meant them.
But because Elizabeth was his wifeâs friend, he thought that he should be nicer to her.
âTake care of yourself. Elizabeth.Iâll assign my men to protect you and your aunt, so you wonât have to worry too much.Jorge wonât have the guts to show his ugly mug anywhere near you ever again.â Brandon remarked sternly Elizabeth had calmed down, Natalie and Brandon left the hospital.
Their previous encounter was quite awkward, so Natalie didnât want to stay behind in the hospital any longer and went home with Brandon.
After getting in the car, she asked him about what happened to Jorge.
Natalie was shocked when she learned everything that Jorge had done.She thought that Jorge was the worst man in existence.
âMy God, Jorge is the worst! Heâll never change.Elizabeth thought that heâd eventually change himself for the better, but he never will.That man is incorrigible,â Natalie remarked, heaving a sigh.
She looked out the window and stared at the gloomy sky.
Dark clouds roamed the night skies, and it seemed that a heavy downpour of rain was coming.
Meanwhile, Brandon put his hand on his forehead while closing his eyes.
âJorge will never change.He doesnât deserve salvation and he sure as hell doesnât deserve forgiveness.Itâs in the nature of humans to be resistant to change.â
Noticing that he was apathetic to the subject, Natalie looked at him and replied, âBrandon, youâve changed a lot since the first day we met.â
Upon hearing her response, he opened his eyes, seemingly exhausted.
âIâm nothing like that piece of shit.And all of the changes that happened to me are all because of you,â Brandon remarked.
In his opinion, changing himself for the better for Natalieâs sake was only right.lt didnât feel exhausting or wrong at all.
However, it was hard to tell just how much he had changed ever since he lost his memories in the past two years.
Just thinking about it put Brandon in a bad mood.
Natalie, on the other hand, had fallen silent.She could tell from his response that he was dispirited.She wondered if Brandon thought that it was bad that he changed for her.
Natalie couldnât figure it out.
Right when she was about to ask Brandon a question, he turned toward her and asked, âDid I say something wrong?â
Natalie shook her head and whispered, âBrandon.â
She placed her hands on the leather cushion in the backseat to proper herself up.She leaned closer to him and planted a gentle k**s on his l*ps.
Brandon froze for a moment before embracing her and kissing her back passionately.
When they were finally out of breath, they stopped kissing.
Natalie rested her head on his chest, gently drawing circles on his left ch*st using her fi**ger.
âYou have a kind soul, Brandon.You didnât change for me.I merely found a different side of you.â
The sound of her voice was music to his ears.
Brandon held her hand and planted a soft kiss on the back of it.He then embraced Natalie once more.
After taking her hand back, Natalie smiled before kissing him again.
