Ian did as she said, following her back to the hospital room.
Natalie handed him a container of seafood chowder. "Eat something. I caught the seafood myself."
Ian remembered her mentioning before that she enjoyed free diving.
He sat down, a smile he couldn't quite suppress spreading across his lips as he looked at the beautiful insulated container.
Natalie passed him a spoon. "Go on. I also brought some ribs, fish, and chicken. I put everything in the fridge. Do you know how to make soup?"
Natalie asked with a smile.
Ian, his face flushing, met her clear gaze and nodded with a smile. "I do."
"That's great." Natalie went to put the groceries away, sealing the ingredients in bags before placing them in the freezer.
Watching her, Ian let out a soft laugh, a sound like a gentle hook tugging at one's heart.
After putting everything away, Natalie returned.
She had also brought a few sets of clothes for Ian. "Ian, winter is coming, and it's going to get colder. Our company's down jackets and coats are very good. I brought a few for you, and some for your grandmother too."
She gestured to the bags by the door.
"Okay. Thank you!" His voice was cheerful. It felt wonderful to be genuinely cared for.
"Then hurry up and eat." Natalie glanced down and saw her phone vibrating. "I need to take this call outside," she said.
"Mm-hm." His ears were red, and he didn't dare look up.
Natalie didn't notice. She stood up and went outside to answer the call.
It was from Sebastian.
"Hello. Are you calling about the divorce?"
That was the first thing she said.
On the other end, Sebastian was silent.
Sebastian stood before the floor-to-ceiling windows in his office, looking down at the city below, a cold arc forming on his lips.
