Chapter 207

Chapter 207She did not care about what motive Sean had by offering to join them. All that mattered was that he
would help find Connor.
Hence, the three of them hurriedly left the second floor and headed to the surveillance room in the
restaurant. They wanted to find out who had brought Connor away.
However, before they reached the surveillance room, Natalie’s phone rang.
Th€ connection to th€ §ource of thïš dat@ r€§t$ in n0v3lebookAlthough her patience was running out at this juncture, she still picked up the call. “Who is this?”
“Are you Ms. Smith?”
“Yes.” Natalie nodded. “And you are?”
“We’re calling from the Stanford Hospital.”
“The hospital?” Natalie frowned, not understanding why she had received a call from the hospital.
Sean and Shane glanced at her at the same time.
Shane suggested, “Ask what happened.”
Nodding, Natalie asked the question.
The person replied over the phone, “Well, Connor got into an accident at Northbridge road. May I ask if
you...”
However, before she could finish speaking, Natalie had already released her grip on the phone. It
smashed onto the floor so forcefully that the screen turned dark.
At the same time, Natalie felt a wave of giddiness attack her as she toppled over onto the ground.When Shane saw that, his heart skipped a beat. He quickly stretched out his arms and caught her in
time. While she leaned against his chest, he tapped her back briskly.
Jolted back to her senses, Natalie grabbed his sleeves and pleaded tearfully, “Mr. Shane, bring me to
Stanford Hospital right away! Connor got into a car accident. Let’s go now!”
Shane’s expression changed drastically when he heard that. He directly carried her and strode to the
carpark.
Picking up the phone, Sean followed them, wanting to find out what was going on.
Why was that kid suddenly taken away? Why did he get into a car accident as well?
Natalie sobbed uncontrollably on their way to the hospital. She kept blaming herself for leaving Connor
alone in the restaurant.
If she had brought him along, he would not have been kidnapped, let alone gotten into a car accident.
Unfortunately, everything was too late.
When they reached the hospital, Natalie quickly alighted the car and staggered into the hospital.
She was still distraught by news about Connor’s car accident. Furthermore, as she was also wearing
heels, she stumbled as she ran, almost falling down a couple of times.
In the end, she directly kicked her heels off and ran toward the reception area barefoot.
Shane was following behind her. When she took off her heels, he picked them up and continued
chasing after her.
Only Sean walked behind them calmly and watched both of them with interest.After asking the receptionist and hearing that Connor was still in the emergency operation theatre,
Natalie rapidly dashed in that direction.
When she saw the red flashing light above the operation theatre, she was overwhelmed by distress. It
felt so agonizing that she could barely breathe as if someone were violently wrenching her heart.
Placing her heels down, Shane glanced at her bare feet and frowned in disapproval. However, he still
coaxed gently, “Don’t worry, Connor will definitely be alright.”
“How is it possible for me to not worry? Connor has always been very healthy since young. He barely
even falls sick. If something bad happens to him because of the car accident, I... I really don’t know
what I should do anymore!” Natalie slumped on the cold bench and lowered her head. It was obvious
that she was blaming herself for it.
Shane squatted and lifted her foot. While she gazed at him in surprise, he gently put on her shoes for
her. “Don’t catch a cold. After Connor comes out, he still needs you to take care of him. If you fall sick,
you won’t be able to do so.”
When Natalie heard that, she bit her lips and nodded. “Thank you...”
Shane grunted an acknowledgement as he stood up.
Sean, who was leaning against the opposite wall, suddenly remarked, “Tsk! It’s the first time I’ve seen
you swallow your pride and put on shoes for someone else. Even Jacqueline has never enjoyed such a
treatment.”
Shane’s jaw hardened. “Shut up!”
Sean pretended not to have heard him. When he noticed that Natalie did not react after hearing
Jacqueline’s name, he could not help but feel puzzled. “Natalie, aren’t you curious about whoJacqueline is?”
