At dawn, the members of the team, who had worked overtime in the past few days, breathed a sigh of relief when they heard Natalie say, “Let’s call it a day.”

They were so exhausted that they nearly couldn’t make it home and fell asleep on the spot.

“Are you sure this is okay?”

Queenie was still a little lack of confidence.

Although she did not really care about the order, she had worked hard for several nights and did not want her efforts to be in vain.

Natalie nodded. “Yes.”

“All right, then.” Queenie also nodded, closed the computer, and took a sip of coffee.

After a few days and nights, the coffee could no longer perk the team up.

Their minds were groggy, too.

When Natalie arrived at Stronghelm Global, the receptionist saw her reddened face and asked with concern, “Are you okay?”

Natalie shook her head. “I’m fine.”

In truth, she had a fever and was dizzy.

The receptionist checked the time and suggested, “It’s still early. Would you like to grab something

to eat first?”

Natalie shook her head. “No. It’s okay.”

She had no appetite for the time being and could only eat after the meeting.

The receptionist got the cold medicine and handed it to her. “I think you have a fever. Here. Take some medicine first.”

“Thank you.” Natalie glanced at the receptionist gratefully.

In fact, she did not even know the receptionist’s name until now, but the warmth she received from the receptionist was more than what she felt from Calvin.

She wondered, “Since when did Calvin become less than a stranger in my world? Why didn’t I see it clearly before?”

At that moment, she was more sure about divorcing Calvin, especially when she thought of the incident the night before.

Although she already had an inkling of what was happening, she was still shocked when she witnessed Yvette did not lose her vision.

When Yohannes arrived, he saw that Natalie had fallen asleep on the couch in the living room, and the receptionist had even considerately covered her with a blanket.

When the receptionist saw Yohannes, she respectfully stepped forward and greeted, “Mr. Foster.”

“What’s going on?” Calvin’s tone was cold, and his eyes were icy as he glanced at Natalie.

The receptionist was startled by his words.

She knew all along that Yohannes was extremely strict with his work, and one like Natalie could never exist in the company.

Yohannes arrived at the company half an hour earlier than usual that day. When the receptionist saw him, it was already too late for her to wake Natalie.

up.

Thinking that Natalie had been working hard the past few days, the receptionist tried to summon her courage and said, “Ms. Walcott pays attention to her appearance always, but she has a fever now. Maybe the cold medicine I gave her earlier has made her drowsy.”

Her words were all in favor of Natalie..

Natalie heard someone talking and woke up in a daze. When Yohannes came into sight, she forced herself to wake up immediately.

She got up and stood there awkwardly. “Mr. Foster, I-I’m sorry.”

Falling asleep in someone else’s company was absolutely intolerable in a collaboration. Natalie felt like strangling herself at that moment.

Fortunately, Yohannes did not mind it and walked toward the elevator. Jayden, who was following behind him, ordered, “Hurry up and follow us.”

“Oh, okay!” Natalie hurriedly caught up with them after casting the receptionist another grateful glance.

The atmosphere was a little heavy in the elevator. Natalie stood in the corner, trying to minimize her presence as much as possible. However, even the back of Yohannes with an oppressive height before her still made her struggle to breathe.

After they entered the office, Yohannes sat down and opened his laptop. He tugged the tie on his n*eck, seemingly a little irritated.

“Is he in a bad mood?” Natalie mused upon seeing that.

Natalie’s heart leaped into her throat as she thought about that. After all, one would be more critical when the person was in a bad mood.

“This is the design wor amended last night. Please review it.” She put the file on the large desk and pached it toward Yohannes.

fohannes took the file, opened it, and looked through the manuscript.

He did it rather quickly as if he was reading them perfunctoryly.

Natalie was nervous

Deep down, she was thinking about how to explain to Yohannes, but his aura was way too

Thus, her mind was in turmoil, and she couldn’t even prepare a response following his rejection in

ach a short amount of time.

“Did you catch a cold””Yohannes suddenly asked.

“Huh” Natalie was shocked when she heard that.

She had not expected such an off-topic question from him.

Still, she nodded quickly. “Yes”

It was true that propir should not torture themselves for someone who did not deserve it, as they would be the ones who suffered in the end.

Yohanne’s slender fingers looked elegant as he fl*pped through the manuscript. The gloomy look in his eyes dorpene

No matter how determined Natalie was the night before, she could only feel doomed at that

If Yohanes rejected their manuscript, that would also mean they would never pass the final review

Everyone would believe their own initial instincts. Things would not get better if their first impression were not pleasant.

Yohannes looked at Natalie and curled his l*ps into a smile.

Natalie’s heart tightened with anxiety when she saw Yohannes who was still gloomy a moment ago break into a smile.

The moment Yohannes rose to his feet, his extreme height made Natalie, who was feeling uneasy, feel more oppressed.

“Let’s go,” he said.

“Where to?” Natalie asked.

She wondered if she had heard it wrong when Yohannes invited her to leave together.

“Let’s go to the hospital. Yohannes walked out as he spoke.

Natalie’s mind instantly went blank, and she couldn’t react for a moment. Honestly, she did not even know the name of the man before her..

She only knew that he was Mr. Foster, the CEO of Stronghelm Global.

Yet, the unknown collaborator said he wanted to take her to the hospital.

“You’re sick. If you don’t get an IV drip now, you won’t be able to make it to the final review this afternoon. Or do you want to give up this opportunity?”

Natalie’s heart skipped a beat when she heard that.

Of course, she did not want to, nor could she.

“I’ll go by myself. Thank you for your concern, Natalie replied politely,

When she stood up, her petite figure made her look even more like a little girl before Yohannes. Yohannes lowered his head and gazed down at her.

There was an unfathomable emotion in his

eyes.

“I’m taking you along since I’m going over to get some medicine,” he explained.

Natalie’s mind was in turmoil.

It seemed that she was overthinking it.

She followed Yohannes out after that. In truth, she did not want to go to the hospital, but she was feeling lightheaded and wouldn’t be able to make it through the day without receiving an IV drip.

Shortly, Jayden looked at Yohannes and Natalie from the rearview mirror while driving, and his eyes were filled with shock and disbelief.

He did not expect that Yohannes would take Natalie to the hospital in person. In the past, Yohannes was rigorous and had never behaved that way, even if the person was an important collaborator.
