Chapter 856

The man howled in pain.

His accomplice gritted his teeth and rushed over when he noticed the newcomer.

The person seemed to have a martial arts background as he defeated the thugs easily.

Nevertheless, he was outnumbered when the other thug got up from the ground and joined forces with
the other man.

Natalie opened her eyes when she heard the commotion and saw three figures fighting each other.
Then, she came to her senses that she was rescued.

She hurriedly covered herself and got up from the ground.

She heard a low grunt the moment she stood up.

Natalie narrowed her eyes in confusion. Am I imagining things? Why does it sound so familiar?

She turned in the direction of the voice and saw a familiar figure kneeling on the ground. He was
clutching at his stomach in pain as he inhaled sharply.

It’s him?



It’s Sean! I can’t believe it’s him! Why is he here? And was it a coincidence that he appeared in time to
save me?

Before she could process anything else, she saw a thug raising his fists toward Sean. “Watch out!” she
warned.

If Sean had taken the blow, he would have passed out without a doubt.



Thankfully, Sean ducked in time to avoid the thug’s punch. Then, he stretched out his legs and swept
forward, causing the thug to trip.

The thug fell on his head and groaned in pain, unable to get up anymore.

The other thug roared angrily and swung his fists at Sean.

This time, Natalie wasn’t sure if he could avoid the punch. She knew that he had probably exerted all his
strength from throwing punches while defending himself. Besides, his stomach was still hurting from the
hit he took moments ago.

She panicked as she watched the thug throw a punch at Sean. At that moment, she caught sight of a
stone lying nearby.

She pursed her lips nervously as she mustered up some courage before grabbing the stone. Then, she
smashed it onto the thug’s head.

Bang!

The thug staggered backward and passed out.

Natalie didn’t stop there, instead, she picked up the stone again and walked toward the other thug who
was laying on the ground. She took a deep breath and smashed the stone on his head, too.

Consequently, the thug passed out as well.

Sean was stunned when he saw Natalie in action. He was surprised by her tremendous courage and
decisiveness.

Oh my, this is exactly why I fell for you!

Sean chuckled as he curled his lips.



Natalie turned when she heard him chuckle. Yet, before she could say anything, her knees gave way and
she collapsed to the ground.

Sean quickly rushed to her side and caught her before her body hit the ground. “What’s wrong?”

Natalie did not answer him but merely blinked a few times before she fainted.

Sean furrowed his brows in concern as he quickly picked her up and headed toward his car. Once they
were both in the car, he called his assistant to take care of the thugs before speeding to the hospital.

Sean looked at Natalie who was laying quietly in the ward. “Is she going to be alright?” he asked the
doctor.

“She’s fine, just a little anemic due to her pregnancy. Furthermore, she passed out because her
epinephrine levels were high. I guessed it must have been the shock she had gone through. She’ll be
fine as soon as she wakes up,” the doctor answered.

Sean let out a breath of relief as his heart sank at the same time.

She’s pregnant? I can’t believe it!

His eyes fell upon her stomach which was still flat, but the thought of the baby that was growing within
got him to narrow his eyes as a dangerous gleam flashed across them.

“Doctor, is it possible to get an abortion?” Sean asked suddenly.

The doctor was stunned. “Sir, are you sure you don’t want the baby?”

Sean nodded, “My wife and I weren’t planning to have a child anytime soon. This child was an accident,
so…”
