Chapter 23

Natasha felt uncomfortable, so Edward stayed with her all the time. He hugged her gently, and then patted her gently like coaxing a child. At first, Natasha was embarrassed, and her body was stiff. Later, she got used to it. Edward was also uncomfortable. After all, it was his first time to coax a girl. Seeing her so uncomfortable, his heart was pulled together. "Edward, I'm much better now, I want to sleep by myself..." Natasha buried her head in bed and her face was red. "Good." Edward understood and slowly pushed the wheelchair out. After a while, Penny came in and brought a bowl of brown sugar water. At first, Natasha thought it was Edward, and she did not want to get up whining. Then she felt something was wrong. Looking back, she was dumbfounded when she saw Penny. She laid down for a long time and felt much better. She sat up and looked at her. Seeing her stiff appearance, Penny smiled and came over and handed her the bowl of brown sugar water. "Edward does not know how to take care of you. I am afraid that you will feel uncomfortable. Let me see you." "Sister, please." That Edward, why did he tell his sister?! Wouldn't the whole family know? Thinking that it was the case, Natasha's face became more red. Seeing Natasha's shy appearance, Penny liked the girl more and more. She had no scheming at all, she was simple and lovely, and was much more pleasing to the eye than Maxine who was brought by Jake. Thinking about the past, Penny thought of Alicia again, the woman who was originally engaged to Edward. When something happened to Edward, she ran abroad and failed to fulfill her engagement. That was really incomparable. The two chatted a few more words, and Penny sighed heavily, but still said what she wanted to say very much. "Natasha, you must be really good to Edward. I saw that he actually dotes on you. I hope you can always be good." "Well, sister, I will." At the thought of Edward's face, Natasha smiled and nodded her head. Penny explained a few matters needing attention then went downstairs. When Natasha drank the brown sugar water, her stomach was warm, and her stomach did not hurt at all. She laid in bed, looking at the ceiling, thinking about what happened the past few days. If her Mom, Jake or Maxine hurt her, then Edward was the string of lights in her life. The Busch family, everyone there were very kind to her, and Natasha was a person who knew how to repay kindness. So she would be very kind to Edward. When she was thinking about things, she slowly closed her eyes. In her dream, she saw a big stove in front of her, and the big stove could move. It approached her step by step. She wanted to run but couldn't run. She did not expect the big stove to stop when it was approaching her. At the moment, she felt very warm. She was on fire and hungry when she was baking. If only there were baked sweet potatoes to eat… Edward looked at the girl's face and her sweet sleeping figure, then he slightly hooked his lips. Looking at her long eyelashes which were trembling slightly, like butterflies with fluttering wings, her skin looked like a blow bomb could be broken, he could not help but want to kiss her. He stared at her face and smiled. It was just that there was not much happy time, for the girl to be held in his arms. She must be hungry. He thought. Fortunately, he was ready. When Natasha woke up, she found herself lying in Edward's arms. "Edward... I..." She was shocked. When did Edward come in? Why did she not know? "Hungry? I have prepared food for you." As soon as she heard something about food, she nodded quickly and got up from his arms. When she got up, she found a hot water bottle falling out of her arms. A hot water bottle? Natasha quietly looked up at Edward. Edward nodded, did not deny nor admit it. "You are hungry, I told Sam to bring you something to eat here." "Okay." Natasha agreed. She suddenly also thought of something, if Edward had been with her, it could be said that he did not eat anything yet. "How about you? Are you not hungry?" "I am not hungry." "Please, let us eat together." "…" Looking at her clear eyes, Edward could only say "okay". Sam knocked twice at the door, and then pushed it open revealing the food he carried for two people. "He spoiled his wife excessively, and the food was unlimited …" He smiled to himself. Natasha was very happy when she smelled the delicious smell of food. She did not eat much that afternoon. And that moment, she had a special appetite, so she quickly filled a bowl of rice. He thought Natasha would eat first, but he did not expect her to push the first bowl of rice to him. "Edward, eat first!" Then she filled another bowl and ate happily. Seeing that she did not feel uncomfortable unlike before, he breathed a sigh of relief and ate what she got for him.
