Chapter 177

After tidying up everything. the sky was already dark. The clear, bright moon hung high in the sky,

scattering faint rays of moonlight that enveloped the flowering cherry trees in the neighborhood. There

was a night breeze, and the blooming cherry flowers fluttered down as if they were dancing gracefully.

Natalie Foster leaned against the balcony railing and realized that all the flowering peach trees in the

neighborhood had been replaced by flowering cherry trees. Furthermore, every tree was in full bloom.

She had always had the habit of coming to the balcony before she slept. Why didn’t she notice this a

few days ago? Her gaze was fixed on the fluttering petals of the cherry blossoms that covered the sky.

They cascaded gently to the ground with the wind. The sight was very beautiful. Looking at the

picturesque scenery actually made Natalie feel much better.

After cleaning up the kitchen. Trevon Wilson saw the woman leaning against the railing with her back

facing him. He slowly walked closer and said. “What are you looking at?”

Upon hearing this, Natalie turned her head and glanced sideways at the man. At this moment, Trevon

looked more like a down-to-earth mortal. He was no longer impeccably dressed in a suit and leather

shoes. He was only wearing a simple blue pajamas. Although Natalie knew without thinking that the

price of pajamas would not be low, it made him more approachable than when he wore formal attire.

She did not answer Trevon’s question. When she recalled that he also lived in this district, she asked,

“Isn’t the district supposed to be filled with flowering peach trees? How did those trees get replaced by

flowering cherry trees?”

Trevon lowered his eyes and looked down. The sight was not bad. He said calmly. “Perhaps the owner

of this neighborhood district thought that the cherry blossoms looked better, so he changed the peach

trees.”

Natalie continued to ask, “Do you know the owner of this district?”

Trevon answered immediately “No, I don’t.”

If Hackett Blackwell were present, he would have said. “You son of a bitch. You are valuing lovers over

friends. Who was the one who competed with me with his baby butt exposed to see who could pee

further away?”

When Trevon said that, Natalie didn’t doubt him. After all, Athana was so big. It wasn’t possible for him

to know “I’ll go to bed first. Remember to lock the door for me when you leave.”

Was she planning to chase him away again? What do you plan to do?”

everyone.

“There’s no need to do anything. I’ll just go to work normally. The snake will emerge eventually.” How

could they not come out to hunt when the food was in plain sight?

Trevon did not probe further. “Mm-hmm. I’ll sleep on the sofa tonight. You don’t have to chase me

away. I will leave after you catch the mastermind.”

Natalie straightened up and raised her head to look at him. She saw a pair of eyes filled with

determination. “Good night.” After saying that, Natalie walked to her room. After entering the room and

closing the door, she was hesitating over whether to lock the door. After thinking about it, she decided

to forget it. If she locked the door, it would make her seem petty. Besides, this fellow knew how to pick

locks. It would be useless even if she locked the door, so she didn’t bother with this futile gesture

She lifted the blanket and got into bed, but she couldn’t fall asleep as she lay there. She tossed and

turned on the bed. Ethan White hadn’t regained consciousness. She didn’t know if he would regain

consciousness tomorrow.

Her eyes were closed but her eyeballs were moving visibly beneath her eyelids. “You can’t sleep?”

The sudden voice interrupted Natalie’s thoughts and gave her a shock. Why didn’t this guy make a

sound when he walked? Was it because his feet were too big and the surface area in contact with the

floor was also big and so he didn’t make a sound? She opened her eyes instantly. “You gave me a

fright…”

When Trevon met Natalie’s gaze, he said solemnly, “I was afraid that you wouldn’t be able to sleep, so I

want to help soothe you to sleep.”

Initially, Natalie was worried about Lena and Ethan. Now, she was fretting over Trevon. Was she

Jasper? Did she still need to be soothed to sleep? What was he thinking’

“No need. Go to sleep. I’ll fall asleep in a while. I can’t sleep with you around.” It would be strange if

she could fall asleep when another person suddenly appeared beside her.

“Then go to bed early. I’ll be outside.”

“Mm-hmm.” After Trevon left, he even helped to close the door. Natalie was wondering why she didn’t

hear the door when she was engrossed in deep thought earlier.

If this fellow were to work as a thief, he would definitely succeed since he had a lot of potential. After

Trevon came out, he lay down on the sofa. The sofa was a little soft. With his weight, he instantly sank

into it, forming a human-shaped depression. He grumbled in his heart. Why did she buy such a soft

sofa? Was it because she was afraid that

her son would hit himself against it? Wasn’t this sofa a little too soft?

He had to change it the next time. His son was not made of jelly. It was normal for boys to bump into

things here and there.

It was still midnight when Trevon heard the sound of crying through his sleepy stupor. Alarmed, he

immediately flipped over and leaped across the sofa. He pushed open the master bedroom door. As

the sofa was too soft, he did not sleep very soundly. True enough, the woman on the bed was having a

nightmare and was sobbing.

Trevon did not put on his slippers just now. He lay down on the bed straightaway and hugged Natalie,

who was still huddled under the blanket. He gently patted her back to soothe her to sleep. When she

felt the comforting embrace, the woman in his arms gradually calmed down.

Trevon’s good-looking brows gradually relaxed. After a while, there was the sound of even breathing in

his arms. Only then did he stop patting-

As he looked down at the woman’s sleeping face, his heart ached like it was being pricked by needles.

Sure enough, ber toughness during the day was just a pretense. She even claimed that she wanted to

catch the mastermind. She was just trying to spur herself on

Why did this woman have to act so strong? Couldn’t she just leave everything to him and play her role

as a fragile woman?

Had she lived like this all these years? The more Trevon thought about it, the more his heart ached.

He freed one hand and gently took out his cell phone to check something. He entered the search query

“keeps crying and having nightmares in the middle of the night”. It would have been better if he hadn’t

checked. His heart was in his mouth after he checked. Post-traumatic stress disorder, depression,

mental illness…

Trevon felt that it was possible for Natalie to be traumatized. She was probably not suffering from

depression, let alone mental illness. It seemed that he had to think of a way to let her vent her negative

emotions.

When Natalie woke up, her neck felt very sore. She wanted to turn her head, but Trevon’s facial

features loomed up before her eyes. His chiseled face and the stubble on his chin made him look more

mature and manly.

When he felt the woman in his arms moving, Trevon opened his eyes and stared at her in a daze. He

did not feel that he was doing anything wrong with his two arms and asked matter-of-factly, “You’re

awake?”

Natalie turned around awkwardly and was about to get off the bed. She felt a little uneasy about getting

hugged by Trevon like this. Just as she reached out to get up, she was pulled back together with the

blanket into his embrace and collided with his chest. “Don’t move. Stay here for another five minutes.

I’ll get up after asking you a few questions.”

Natalie wanted to retort that he could ask any question he wanted, but how could she answer if he

hugged her like this? After struggling for a while, she could not break free and gave up. “Hurry up and

ask. I need to go to the toilet.”

Fortunately. Trevon was wearing pajamas and there was a blanket between them. So he did not cover

himself with a blanket the entire night?

The man’s deep and seductive voice rang out from above her head, making her skin tingle. He gave a

heavy sigh. “Are you in the habit of having nightmares in the past?”

These words made Natalie, who was waiting with her head lowered, raise her head to look at him.

Then she said with some certainty. “Did I have a dream last night?”

Trevon didn’t respond but maintained his posture. His arms were still around Natalie’s waist but they

were separated from. her body by the blanket. “Mm-hmm. You were crying”

So he came in to hug her because she had a nightmare and was crying. Then, he hugged her for the

entire night without covering himself with a blanker?

Her heart felt a warm sensation and she felt a little embarrassed. “Thank you.”

When he saw that she did not deny it, it proved something. Trevon narrowed his eyes and frowned. “So

you’ve always had a habit of having nightmares?”

Natalie also said truthfully. “Not always. I developed this habit after my mother departed when I was

young. Later on, I gradually grew up and suffered from insomnia a little. After that, I was fine. It seemed

that she didn’t really have any nightmares after her grandfather departed.

When he heard this, Trevon’s heart was filled with panic. Wasn’t this a sign of mild depression?

Insomnia, nightmares, and crying. “Let me accompany you to see a doctor, okay?”

Natalie knew the reason for this nightmare. At worst, it was just because she found it difficult to accept

the facts. She would be fine after a while. She never had nightmares when she was in Sapphire City in

the past. “No need. I’ll be fine in a few days, It’s just that the sight of bloodstains on Jasper’s body kept

making me panic.”

Suddenly, Trevon kissed Natalie’s forehead, but it was just a fleeting kiss. He withdrew very quickly.

“Our son is very safe. Grandpa and Mom are watching him very closely at the Wilson’s residence.

Don’t worry.”

The atmosphere did not turn awkward because of that kiss just now. “Mm-hmum. I have to go to work.”

“Til send you there.” As Trevon spoke, he sat ud.

“No need. I’ll go by myself.”

Unable to dissuade her, Trevon could only let Natalie be. After eating the breakfast that Jim Hawk sent

here, they parted ways. One went to the office while the other went to the hospital.
