Rejected No More: I Am Way Out Of Your League, Darling!

Chapter 701:

He felt invincible, as if there wasn’t a single obstacle he couldn’t overcome—not when it came to winning over women.

Just as he reached the hospital entrance, a voice called his name from a distance.

Turning around, his grin broadened at the sight of Natalie approaching.

“Natalie! What a surprise! What are you doing here? I thought you’d be taking it easy today and getting some well-deserved rest.”noveldrama

Natalie’s expression twisted with revulsion as she took in Linden’s face.

She silently thanked the heavens that it had been Nina who endured the night with him. If it had been her, she wasn’t sure she’d be able to live with herself.

How utterly revolting.

Still, Natalie kept her tone steady, refusing to let him see her irritation.

“They’re replacing the hospital staff. What’s your plan now?”

Linden’s grin widened, exuding misplaced confidence.

“Don’t worry about me. I’ve got enough talent to hold on to my position.”

Her brow furrowed slightly in surprise at his arrogance, but she had no interest in prolonging the conversation.

“Fine. Just make sure you handle it today. Don’t let anything go wrong.”

Linden nodded, his eyes shamelessly trailing over her.

Without warning, he leaned closer, his hand reaching toward her waist.

Natalie immediately recoiled, her eyes flashing with warning as she stepped back.

“What do you think you’re doing?”

Thinking Natalie was just being shy, Linden chuckled.

“What’s the matter? Can’t handle a little affection from your boyfriend? We were wild last night, weren’t we? After all, we’ve already made love. What’s the harm in a hug? Still feeling shy?”

Natalie had a hard time hiding her disgust.

The very thought repulsed her.

To her, the short and plump Linden seemed completely repulsive.

“Alright, let’s leave it at that for now. Go finish what I asked you to do,” Natalie said, unable to bear it any longer. She turned to leave, but Linden grabbed her hand. He smirked.

“Don’t worry. I’ll make sure you’re satisfied.” He then walked into the hospital.

Natalie could barely stand it. Once home, she repeatedly sprayed disinfectant on her hands, scrubbing them ten times before finally stopping.

Nina stood a few steps behind, watching as every trace of disgust, irritation, and nausea flashed across Natalie’s face.

“Natalie, just hold on a bit longer. Once Cedric is gone, things will get easier.”

Still seething, Natalie grabbed the disinfectant again and sprayed it on her hands.

“Mom, I can’t take this. Don’t ever ask me to see Linden again. He’s disgusting! Just the thought of him looking at me makes me want to scream. I can’t stand that awful smell of his for even a second.”

Elyse patted Natalie’s back soothingly.

“Sweetheart, I know this is hard on you, and it hurts me too. Once it’s all over, I promise I’ll make it up to you.”

After washing her hands, Natalie turned to speak to Elyse, only to see Nina standing just a few steps away.

“What are you doing here?” Natalie asked coldly, her voice void of guilt.
