Chapter 684 An Urgent Need
Samuel felt relieved as he walked out of the hotel.
A smile curved on his lips as he thought about how clever Natalie was.
He figured she must have set Yara up and even put all the trackers on Yara just so Samuel would deal her the final blow.
“Ha!”
Natalie’s wit and victory completely changed Samuel’s mood. He felt both proud and intrigued by her intelligence.
He wondered how things would turn out eventually, but on second thought, he started feeling Natalie was not completely out of danger yet.
Why didn’t she pick up my call if she’s fine? Why didn’t she go home?
The frown on his brows resumed.
“Billy, I want you to send someone to look for Natalie.”
“Right away, Mr. Bowers.”
“Find Yara if you can’t locate Natalie,” he added.
Billy was surprised, but he did not ask any questions. “Sure.”
Samuel had established an underground network using his connections in Dellmoor, so all Billy had to do was give an order and send out pictures of Natalie and Yara, and a thorough search began.
On the same night itself, Samuel received news.
“Yara is now in a motel,” Billy reported. “She went over after she left Imperial Hotel yesterday night. She never left since then.”
“Give me the keys to her room,” Samuel commanded.
“Mr. Bowers…”
“Do you have a problem with that?” Samuel questioned.
“No, Mr. Bowers.”
Billy proceeded to negotiate with the keeper of the motel and he retrieved the keys Samuel wanted.
After they arrived at the motel, Samuel asked Billy to wait for him downstairs, while he went in ahead with the keys.
It was a rugged motel. The cracks on the walls and wooden staircases revealed its age. Despite being an old place, it was far from being unkempt.
Samuel knew that Yara would never come to a place like this. Only Natalie would.
When he reached the room, he opened the door straight with the keys without even knocking.
A woman in a shiny gown was lying asleep on the bed when he entered.
The zip on her back was half unfurled, revealing a part of her fair skin underneath.
Waves of black hair strayed on the sides of her face so Samuel could not see her features clearly. However, he could not be any surer that it was her with just a glance.
“Nat,” he whispered, stepping closer.
Natalie had been semi-unconscious ever since she hit the bed. The impact on her head was a huge blow to her, and she had not fully recovered from it. When she heard someone beckoning her, she rubbed her eyes, mumbling, “Water… I want some water.”
Samuel darted his gaze around the room. Water.
When he spotted a bottle, he grabbed and uncapped it before taking a gulp himself. Then, he pressed his lips against hers so she could drink from him.
Natalie was parched. When she felt water on her lips, she sucked on it greedily.
Her reaction stunned Samuel. He had no intention of doing anything other than giving her a drink, but when her soft lips brushed against his in desperation, he could not hold it in any longer.
There was a constant voice in his head asking him to take her there and then.
