Chapter 699: The Heat Of What She Saw

"Oh, Eric! Thank God!" Natalie was finally able to release the breath she had been holding in all this while as he safely returned home. 

Left for her alone, Natalie would have joined Eric on that trip just to make sure he was safe. But then knowing her presence wouldn't help but instead worsen the whole situation, especially with Daniel around, she had no choice but to stick her ass at home. 

However, he was home now and there was nothing to worry about. 

"You don't know how worried I was the entire time?" Natalie confessed, hugging him very tightly as if it had been ages since they met when it was hours. However, she didn't let go and instead relished the moment. 

Not that Eric was complaining because he sank into her warm embrace while running his hands through her silky hair. The thought that she was worried about him sent a giddy feeling throughout his body. You can only be worried about someone you like, right?
