Chapter 378 Her Guardian Angel

Samuel’s gazes were so cold and frosty that they freaked Jolene out. She had wanted to ask the doctor

to check on Samuel first, but eventually, she did not dare to do it.

The doctor put down his medical box and began checking on Natalie.

It turned out that it was a rattlesnake, a highly venomous species, that bit Natalie earlier. Fortunately, the

hospital had ample antivenoms to counter rattlesnake bites in their medical storage. With proper and

timely medical treatment, one would not be in a life-threatening case.

Natalie later went into an unconscious state.

She was freezing and thought of moving around and rubbing her hands to warm herself up. Yet, her

whole body felt so weak she did not have the strength.

That made her feel terrible.

Suddenly, she felt something sharp poking through the veins on her arm.

That unusual sensation of intrusion made her curl her body up instinctively.

But at the same time, she felt Samuel’s big warm hands holding onto hers tightly. The skinship gradually

aided in the transmission of heat.

Samuel’s hands barely had any calluses, but his index and middle fingers had many creases.

It was so distinct she could tell that it was Samuel holding onto her hand even without opening her eyes.

Instantly, she felt a sense of reassurance.

With him around, no matter how risky the situation was, she felt like she had undefeatable courage within

her.

After administering the antivenom for Natalie, the doctor then walked toward Samuel, wanting to check

on him.

However, Samuel, who could care less, enquired about Natalie’s condition instead of cooperating with

the doctor. “Be honest with me; how is she doing right now?”

The doctor was a little taken aback by Samuel’s reaction but soon recovered from it and answered, “Her

condition isn’t too bad. She should be able to recover in about three to five days.”

“Should be?” Samuel raised an eyebrow.

The doctor had always been careful with his words. But having put under the stress, he went through

some deliberation and finally replied, “She’ll recover. She’ll be fine after the antivenom shot.”

Samuel only allowed the doctor to treat his wound upon receiving the answer he wanted.

Because he had helped Natalie suck the blood out, he had indirectly swallowed some of the venom and

thus was infected. Of course, in contrast to Natalie, his condition was not too grave.

After the doctor gave both Natalie and Samuel the antivenom shot, he then left them with some advice,

including having more rest, taking a healthy diet, and avoiding strenuous exercises and activities.

Samuel held onto Natalie’s hand as the corners of his lips curled into a mocking smirk.

Dear Lord, why are you doing this to me?!

He had been anticipating to accept the wonderful gift, that was, Natalie. Yet, the doctor had advised them

against partaking in vigorous activities. In that case, I won’t hold myself back when she recovers!

After the treatment, Jolene guided the doctor out of the room and the resort.

“Are the two of them fine, Dr. Walker?” Jolene asked.

“They’ll be alright since they’ve received the antivenom,” the doctor answered honestly.

“That’s good to hear.”

“Did anything happen to you recently?” the doctor inquired. “You’ve been running the resort here for over

ten years. Though there are many poisonous creepy crawlies around this place, I reckoned it’s the first

time something like this happens, right?”

As much as Jolene knew that the doctor’s questions were out of care and concern, her voice grew

agitated as though she was a cat that had gotten her tail stepped on.

“Dr. Walker, what are you trying to imply? Do you think I want such accidents to happen? Is it my fault if

such a rare accident occurs?”

It did not cross the doctor’s mind that Jolene would be so defensive. “I don’t mean that…”

In the end, the two parted ways with grudges.

Back in the room, Samuel and Natalie were left alone since he had made it a point to warn the children

not to disturb Natalie from her rest.

While Natalie was still asleep, Samuel gently pulled her into his arms for a loving and endearing hug.

He was once unafraid of losing the woman in his embrace. Yet now, he could no longer let her go so

easily.

The old Samuel in the past used to think that sacrificing one’s life for another was the most absurd thing

in the whole world. He believed it was ridiculous to talk about something that great when one could not

even lead a good life. But the current Samuel was no longer the same. Had he met with such a

circumstance now, he would be more than willing to exchange his life for Natalie’s.
