Chapter 1133 Burn Injury
"Put them on the table." Adrian said coldly.
Lucky ran over, wagging its tail.
Natalie bent down with a smile. "Do you want to eat too? You can only have one piece, okay?"
Natalie took a piece of pie and handed it to Lucky. After eating it, Lucky licked Natalie's hand, seemingly wanting more.
Seeing the interaction between them, Adrian hadn't expected that Lucky would seem to like Natalie so much.
Lucky was given to Adrian by a friend who had raised the dog for two years. Although Lucky looked docile, his temperament was not very gentle. Even Rachel was sometimes scared by Lucky. Lucky almost only liked to be close to Adrian, so he kept it at Bayview Villa.
He was quite surprised to see that Lucky seemed very pleased with Natalie, which made him eager to quickly retrieve the lost memories of the past three years.
Adrian felt very unfamiliar with Natalie, but he didn't mind her closeness.
He had said not to let Natalie into the study, but when she obediently stayed out, he felt a vague sense of emptiness, as if he wanted her to come in.
Natalie poured a glass of milk for Adrian.
The milk was freshly boiled and a bit hot. Adrian took a sip and then put it down. As he set it down, Lucky, who was beside him, jumped up and pounced on Adrian. His hand shook, and the cup fell onto the table. Natalie was sitting right next to him, and seeing the milk about to spill on her hand, Adrian instinctively covered her hand with his own, making the scalding milk splash onto his fingers.
Adrian's fingers trembled slightly.
Natalie held his hand. "Are you okay? Did you get burned?"
There were a few red marks from the burn on the back of Adrian's hand, but fortunately, the area wasn't large.
Natalie wasn't very familiar with the Howard Mansion. She looked around but couldn't find the first aid kit, so she went downstairs to ask Violette for help.
Meanwhile, Adrian looked down at the back of his hand, realizing he had acted uncontrollably protecting Natalie.
When the hot milk spilled, he just held Natalie's hand to prevent her from getting burned without hesitation.
Adrian fell into deep thought. 'What was my relationship with Natalie like before? How could Natalie marry me?'
As for these questions, he needed answers.
About ten minutes later, Natalie returned to the study with a first aid kit in her hand. She walked a few steps to Adrian, gently knelt on the carpet, found the burn ointment from the kit, rubbed it in her palm, and gently applied it onto the back of Adrian's hand.
After finishing the treatment, Natalie let out a sigh of relief. She looked up and suddenly met Adrian's eyes, which made her unable to see clearly but also drew her in. "Adrian."
Adrian raised his hand, gently pinching Natalie's delicate chin with two long fingers, lifting it slightly.
Natalie looked into his eyes, suddenly getting closer. Her breath fell on the back of Adrian's hand. Adrian's fingers slowly tightened. She was very thin, with a delicate face and an even more skeletal chin. Actresses were all much thinner than normal people.
But Natalie was very beautiful.
Adrian could tell that the Natalie in front of him was bare-faced. He was very close but couldn't see any flaws on her face. Natalie was indeed very beautiful, but just being beautiful wasn't enough to become the hostess of the Howard family..
