“The organizer booked our hotel rooms for us,” replied Mercede.
Natalie was relieved. “That's nice.”
“So, tell me. What are your thoughts about the upcoming competition?”
Hearing that question, Natalie's smile fell. She poured out all the issues she had faced thus far.
Listening to her, Mercede tried to offer as many helpful suggestions as she could.
As the competition was starting, the two finally ended their catch-up session.
Admittedly, with a mentor guiding the way, Natalie felt much more at ease. She was no longer as lost as before. For
the coming competition, she felt more confident.
“Nat, over here.” Just as Natalie entered the competition hall, she heard Lina's voice. Looking over, she saw that
Lina was already seated in front of their table. Lina was smiling and waving at her.
Natalie returned a smile. While supporting her stomach, she waddled over.
Just as she was passing through two tables, a leg suddenly appeared in front of her.
Natalie did not notice it at all, so she tripped and was about to fall face-first to the ground.
“Nat!” Lina's face paled as she called out.
Natalie did not respond. She looked down with a face full of horror. Her hands gripped tightly around her stomach.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe was pregnant. If she fell down, she might lose her baby or be forced to give birth early.
Babies born earlier were typically weaker. Their chances of survival would thus be lowered severely.
Even as the mother, she would be greatly injured.
Either way, everyone in the hall was stunned by this scene. Lina immediately stood up and ran over to catch
Natalie.
However, she was too far away. Even if she ran as fast as she could, she would not be able to get there in time.
Just as Natalie was about to come into contact with the floor, a hand appeared out of nowhere and grabbed onto
her, helping her up.
After regaining her footing, Natalie held onto the corner of a table. With deep breaths, she tried to calm herself
down.
That was close. I could have lost my child.
Her face was drained of color, and her hands were trembling. What happened had left her slightly traumatized.
“Nat, are you okay?” Lina asked worriedly after finally reaching her side.
Natalie opened her mouth to speak, but she was so scared that no words came out.
At this moment, the front door of the hall was kicked open. Soon after, the loud sound of a set of footsteps could be
heard, followed by two smaller ones.
“Mommy.” The two children looked at Natalie and quickly hurried over. They wrapped their arms around her leg at
the same time. “Are you okay?”
Natalie looked down to see their moist red eyes. She knew that they were frightened by what just happened.
Feeling bad, she caressed them lightly on their heads.
“I'm fine...” Notolie replied hoorsely. Then she looked up ot the mon wolking over.
He pulled her into his orms ond hugged her tight.
Notolie could feel thot his heortbeot wos much foster thon usuol. He must hove been severely impocted by whot he
hod just witnessed os well.
“Sorry for moking you worry, Dorling,” Notolie whispered os she returned his hug.
The mon loosened his grip ond cupped her foce. “I'm just glod you're okoy.”
Notolie forced o smile. “I'm perfectly fine. Good thing Tino cought me.”
She looked over ot the foreign womon sitting ot the toble to her left.
It wos this womon who hod octed just in time to cotch her. Otherwise, she would hove been in on ombulonce by
now.
Shone looked ot Tino. He bowed in grotitude ond soid, “Thonk you for soving my wife ond my child.”
The two kids followed suit ond bowed os well. “Thonk you for soving our mommy ond our siblings.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTino hod no ideo who Shone wos. However, she hod seen him wolking together with the orgonizer before. Not only
thot, she noticed thot the orgonizer wos unusuolly polite to him. From thot, she knew thot this mon wos no ordinory
mon.
“I'm fine...” Natalie replied hoarsely. Then she looked up at the man walking over.
He pulled her into his arms and hugged her tight.
Natalie could feel that his heartbeat was much faster than usual. He must have been severely impacted by what he
had just witnessed as well.
“Sorry for making you worry, Darling,” Natalie whispered as she returned his hug.
The man loosened his grip and cupped her face. “I'm just glad you're okay.”
Natalie forced a smile. “I'm perfectly fine. Good thing Tina caught me.”
She looked over at the foreign woman sitting at the table to her left.
It was this woman who had acted just in time to catch her. Otherwise, she would have been in an ambulance by
now.
Shane looked at Tina. He bowed in gratitude and said, “Thank you for saving my wife and my child.”
The two kids followed suit and bowed as well. “Thank you for saving our mommy and our siblings.”
Tina had no idea who Shane was. However, she had seen him walking together with the organizer before. Not only
that, she noticed that the organizer was unusually polite to him. From that, she knew that this man was no ordinary
man.
