A Cue for Love

Meanwhile, Samuel had chosen to take Natalie to a presidential suite in the Imperial Hotel as he figured the kids were already asleep at the Bowers residence.

“Put this on. I'll bandage your arm afterward,” Samuel said while handing her a nightgown that he retrieved from the closet.

“Okay.”

Noticing that he was still standing there, Natalie frowned as she added, “I'm going to get changed now.”

She was hinting at Samuel to at least look away, but he simply walked up to her and grabbed her by the wrist as he said, “Go on, then. Get changed.”

“Samuel, could you at least...”

Samuel cut her off, “The wounded are in no position to make demands. Don't worry, though. I'm not going to take advantage of an injured person.”

He had seen her body before, but she was either drunk or unconscious from her injuries on the times that it happened.

Getting changed in front of Samuel while being completely awake and alert felt incredibly embarrassing for Natalie. Her heart was pounding like crazy, and her face was burning bright red.

“Take it off now.”

“I-I think I'll go change in the bathroom.”

Samuel couldn't help but let out a helpless sigh when he saw that she had gotten the wrong idea.

“The blood from your arm has stained the dress. If you don't let me help you get changed, you'll risk tearing the wound open in the process.”
