Deceiving Her Ears: Ignoring Your Call-Chapter 173: Natalie’s Face Suddenly Changes
When Isaac Vaughn approached, Jason Grant was crawling and rolling on the ground like a heap of mud, his face smeared with snot and tears, emitting terrifying hoarse sounds from his throat.
Listening closely, he was begging for that thing.
"Give, give me a sip... just a sip..."
Jason Grant crawled to Isaac Vaughn’s feet, hugged his slippers, continuously kissing the tops, "Please, I beg you, give me a sip, ah, ah, ah, give me a sip, I beg you..."
Isaac Vaughn looked down at Jason Grant, watching him lick the wet, saliva-covered tops of his slippers—disgusting.
The bodyguard came over and dragged Jason Grant away, like dragging a piece of rotten flesh.
Whenever he thought that if he hadn’t fired that shot, maybe Natalie Kendall would have been tortured by that filthy thing, turning her into something like Jason Grant—not quite human, not quite ghost—Isaac Vaughn wished he could tear Jason Grant apart.
"Take him away."
Isaac Vaughn ordered.
Once he finished speaking, the bodyguard handed Jason Grant to several people in white lab coats.
Although those people were dressed in lab coats, they hardly looked like doctors.
Just after Jason Grant was taken away, Vanessa Grant came in.
Not seeing Jason Grant in the room, she asked, "Baby, where is your little uncle?"
"I found a good place for him." Isaac Vaughn reached out to wrap his arm around his mother’s shoulder, "You won’t have to worry about him anymore."
Nor will you see him again.
Isaac Vaughn didn’t say that part.
Afraid to upset his mom.
After all, she and Jason Grant were siblings by blood.
Vanessa opened her mouth, wanting to ask what good place that was, but seeing her son’s expression, she did not dare to ask.
She knew that what her brother did this time was unforgivable.
"Your health isn’t fully recovered; go and lie down, don’t make me worry."
"Alright, going now."
Isaac Vaughn laughed softly, coaxing his mother to walk out.
As Vanessa walked, she asked, "By the way, is Nat coming over today? Should Mrs. Watson prepare extra for dinner?"
Isaac Vaughn’s eyes darkened slightly.

At 6 PM, Natalie Kendall left the Beckett Group and got into her car.
On her phone, Isaac Vaughn had sent her dozens of messages, begging her to visit him at the hospital.
She hadn’t replied to any of them earlier because she was busy.
Now she replied with just two words: Not going.
Almost as soon as that message was sent, a call came from Isaac Vaughn.
Natalie Kendall didn’t answer, started the car, and drove, but not towards her house, instead, towards the hospital.
Until she parked in the hospital lot, she suddenly frowned in regret.
Isaac Vaughn’s messages hadn’t ceased; if those words could be demonstrated in person, they’d be close to throwing a tantrum.
Natalie Kendall turned off the car, grabbed her handbag from the passenger seat, and headed for the elevator.
Just as she pressed the elevator button, her phone rang again.
Thinking it was Isaac Vaughn calling again, she picked it up only to see it was someone unexpected.
Hesitating for three seconds, she pressed the answer button.
The person on the other end said something, causing Natalie Kendall’s face to change drastically.
With a "ding," the elevator doors opened.
But she didn’t get on, instead turning and quickly walking in the opposite direction.
Returning to her car, Natalie Kendall quickly started it and sped out of the hospital’s underground parking lot.
Upstairs in the ward.
Isaac Vaughn was stunned upon hearing the report from the bodyguard.
"Miss Kendall was planning to come up, but for some reason, she hurriedly left."
"It seemed to be due to a phone call. I noticed Miss Kendall’s face didn’t look good when she answered the call."
Isaac Vaughn immediately dialed Natalie Kendall’s number, but just like before, she didn’t answer.
