Chapter 548: Ambiguity in the Grass
Chapter 548: Ambiguity in the Grass
Connor saw she was really leaving and chased after her: "Are you really not following the Young Master?" "Would I dare?"
Natalie Niles replied irritably: "Last time I followed him onto the cross-sea bridge, kept over a hundred meters away, and even disguised my appearance, yet he still recognized me. Then he directly threw me into the sea! I had to swim for several hours to get back to shore. Anyone with lesser stamina would have drowned!"
She truly doesn’t dare follow Harry Hunter anymore, not even daring to get too close to him.
The safest place on earth, closest to him, is only Connor’s home.
She indeed has always been using Connor.
However, she truly doesn’t dislike Connor either.
If she can’t marry the one she loves, then there’s no difference who she marries. She finds Connor somewhat pleasing to the eye, and Connor is strong enough to earn her respect.
Natalie dare not stay at the villa for long, with Harry Hunter here. If they run into each other, he’s not as easy to talk to as Connor, and she might be thrown into the animal area to feed the monkeys!
She hurried away, as if something was chasing her.
Connor had to jog to keep up: "Hey, you really don’t like rabbits?"
"Don’t like them!"
"It’s pretty cute, I can’t take care of it, you’ve raised them before, you’re experienced, take care of it for me!"
"No!"
"It’s called Little Black, what do you think of the name?"
"Not much!"
"Then you give it a new name."
"Stay away from me, don’t delay my walking!"
"Why are you running? The Young Master is in the hot spring area, this is the plant area; you won’t run into him."
Natalie’s steps suddenly halted: "Really?"
"Yeah!"
As soon as Connor finished speaking, Natalie looked up and saw a figure, her face changed drastically!
She grabbed Connor and pulled him down into a patch of grass.
Connor wanted to speak, but she quickly covered his mouth, mouthing: "Young Master Hunter!"
Connor was speechless. Was it necessary to hide so nervously like a thief?
She could hide, fine, but why drag him into it too!
Making it seem like there was something unspeakable between them, what if the Young Master misunderstood?
Connor heard footsteps approaching, followed by Harry Hunter’s deep voice, like an encyclopedia, introducing various plants to Isabella Weaver.
He was pressed firmly by Natalie, feeling her whole body tense, like she was facing a great enemy!
He gently touched her wrist.
Her steady pulse had risen to 70 beats per minute!
This was actually a normal level for people, but for Natalie, it was unusual.
Her physical strength, cardiopulmonary function were stronger than ordinary people, and she had received professional training in special forces. A sudden heart rate increase could only prove that Harry Hunter was extraordinary to her.
For the first time, Connor touched upon her inner secret.
She liked Harry Hunter.
Natalie’s face, however, showed no change, still pressing Connor, silently waiting for Harry Hunter to walk past.
But it seemed as if Harry Hunter was doing it on purpose, explaining one plant to Isabella for ages, introducing over a dozen plants in a row!
Sweat started to drip from Natalie’s face, her limbs began to stiffen, and then she noticed the man beneath her had a reaction!
She was furious!
If it weren’t for Harry Hunter not having left yet, she would’ve beaten Connor’s that area to a pulp!
At such a moment, how could he still have the mind to react!
Connor’s hand snaked around Natalie’s waist, and he whispered in her ear: "Your chest is making me uncomfortable."
