Chapter 201 Slapped Him And Walked Off
Jensen let out a sigh as he watched Natalie’s retreating figure; something twisted uncomfortably in his chest.
“Natalie, I won’t give up on you.”
Natalie couldn’t stand his behavior anymore.

She headed to the nearest mall, bought a shirt, then took it to a dry cleaner to have it washed and dried before bringing it back to the hospital.
By then, Baron had finished his checkup. When he noticed Natalie wasn’t around, his expression darkened.
The bodyguards around him hardly dared to breathe.
They had no idea where Natalie had gone, and they didn’t dare ask.
Right now, the pressure radiating off Mr. Baron was colder than any air conditioner–what were they supposed to do?
“What are you all standing around for?”
Natalie returned just in time to see the tense atmosphere and couldn’t help but break the silence.
Baron’s expression instantly shifted from stormy to bright.
“Where did you go?”
“Your clothes were filthy, and I didn’t have time to grab anything from home. So I went to a store nearby, bought something, then had it washed and dried before coming back. What’s wrong?”
Natalie walked straight over to him.
Baron glanced at the shirt in her hands and couldn’t stop the smile tugging at his lips.
“You bought this for me?”
“Who else would it be for?”
Seeing the joy on his face, Natalie couldn’t help but chuckle.

“What did the doctor say? Everything’s fine, right?”
“Yeah. They ran a full exam this time, everything looks good.”
“Then why don’t we head to the ward so you can change?”
Natalie knew Baron was a clean freak; he hated being shirtless in front of others.
Naturally, Baron had no objections.
The two of them quickly made their way to a nearby room.

Natalie didn’t act coy. When Baron admitted his arm hurt and he couldn’t lift it, she stepped forward and helped him change into the fresh shirt herself.
Her cheeks heated and her heart pounded, but she forced herself to stay composed; still, the deep blush on her face gave her away.
Baron teased with a grin. “You’ve already seen it, touched it, yet you’re still shy? Didn’t you once grab my tie and demand to know if I’d sleep with you?”
The memory of that moment at the product launch instantly flooded Natalie’s mind, and her face burned hotter.
“Shut up!”
The more flustered she got, the more Baron found her adorable.
This side of her—the one that blushed and glared–was real. It was a thousand times better than the lifeless version of her who’d once thrown everything away for Jensen.
“My dear, you’re so fierce.”
His exaggerated expression made Natalie laugh despite herself.
She sat across from him, hesitated for a moment, then said quietly, “When I went out to buy your clothes, I ran into Jensen.”
“What?”
Baron shot to his feet. “Why the heck was he here? Did he bother you? You went out without bodyguards? What are they, useless? They actually let you go out alone?”
The thought of Jensen still pestering Natalie made him bristle with irritation; the guards caught the spillover of his anger.

Seeing how agitated he was, Natalic quickly reached out, afraid he might strain his injury.
“He can’t bother me anymore; I slapped him across the face.”
“My wife is incredible!”
Baron’s mood improved immediately.
