Chapter 272 Who Cares About That Call

The moment Baron finished speaking. Natalie’s face darkened.

“At a time like this, you’re worried about a phone call? What’s going on with this injury?”

She took his wrist in her hand. On the inside of his wrist was a shallow scratch.

It had happened when Jensen’s car swerved into him; his sleeve had snagged and cut him. Even Ruby hadn’t noticed it earlier, since the wound was hidden on the inner wrist. Baron never imagined Natalic would catch it.

That feeling warmed his chest.

“It’s nothing. I was dodging a car while driving; my sleeve caught and scraped me.”

Natalie bent slightly, leaned close, and blew gently across the wound. fnce13 Fresh chapters posted on f?i?n?d?n?o?v?e?l?/fnce13

“When we get back, we’ll disinfect it and put on a bandage. Later, I’ll design a set of cuffs for you myself, so something like this won’t happen again.”

She fussed over him with such care it was like he might shatter in her hands.

Flynn stood to the side, feeling once again like the unnecessary one.

A grown man, with a scratch that would scab over in no time, and his sister was fussing over him like this?

Baron caught Flynn’s expression, but his own mood was soaring.

“Alright, but make sure you rest too. Forget about my cufflinks for now–take care of your work first. That’s what really matters.”

To his surprise, Natalie quickly replied, “It’s fine. My senior’s helping with the studio; I can set aside some orders. You’re my husband–designing a cuff for you won’t take any time at all.”

“Then thank

you, sweetheart.”

“Flynn? You’re still out here?”

Natalie turned and spotted Flynn hovering nearby, and couldn’t help asking.

Flynn winced inside, like he’d just been sucker–punched all over again.

“So now all you see is your husband? Your brother’s been helping you with the kids all this time, and since you’ve been back you haven’t spared me a ncei?/i”

He sounded genuinely hurt.

Natalie chuckled. “You’re not that young anymore. You can see Mom and Dad love kids; it’s about time you found me a sister–inw.”

Flynn almost spat blood.

Now even his sister was nagging him to get married?

Baronughed even louder.

“She’s right, Flynn! It’s time you found a wife.”

“Get lost!”

Flynn rolled his eyes and stormed off.

He finally realized he was the extra piece in this family.

Natalie’s smile softened, her eyes full of warmth.

This kind of family closeness made her feel at peace.

“Come on, let’s igo /iput some medicine on that cut.”

“You’re not going to answer your phone?”

Baron could still hear it buzzing in her pocket, worried she might miss something important.

“It’s probably nothing urgent,” Natalie said calmly. “If my senior really needs me and can’t reach me, she’ll video call. With my family here, I can return other people’s calls anytime.

Baron’s grin was so wide, nothing on earth could wipe it off his face.

“My wife really does care about me.”

Natalie couldn’t help butugh as she led him into the bedroom to tend to his injury.

Baron actually wanted to pin her down then and there, but with her parents in the house, there was no way they could disappear.

After a short while in the bedroom, the two of them came back out.

Ruby and Waylon were already ying happily with the children, and Flynn had been reduced to full–time babysitter.

Watching her familyugh together filled Natalie’s eyes with warmth. iThis /iis the life I iwant /iito /iikeep /iiforever/ii. /i

When Waylon saw Natalie and Baron return, he called out, “Flynn, Barone with me to

your the study. Natalie, stay

mother.”

“Alright.”

Natalie didn’t know what her father wanted to discuss with Baron, but she trusted he could handle it.

Once the three men went off to the study, Natalie walked over to Ruby.

“Mom, the trip must have been tiring.”

She poured her a ss of water.

Ruby took her daughter’s hand, overwhelmed with emotion.

“I’m not tired. But you–you look so much better since you’ve been back.”

“I’m alright. Baron takes good care of me and the kids.”

She meant every word.

Ruby nodded. “Baron’s a good man. For you and the children, he’s done well. So, Natalie, you should also give him a sense of security.”
