3/3 Chapter 198 Shadows Behind the Accident The driver quickly called Yvonne . Within moments , news of the amusement park disaster swept across the internet . Under Baron's orders , however , every video showing him , Natalic , and the children had already been scrubbed clean . Baron went straight to the nearest hospital . At the same time , Jensen came across the news online . He had only glanced at it casually - until a familiar silhouette on the screen froze him in place . " Natalie ? She was at the amusement park ? " His heart lurched .
He tossed aside the work in his hands , snatched up his phone , and zoomed in on the blurry footage . It wasn't a clear shot , but that back - he knew it too well . Why was Natalie there ? Was she hurt ? How was she now ? Panic clawed at his chest . " Hansel ! Any updates on that amusement park accident ? " Hansel hurried in , caught off guard by the sudden question . ... e , crowded , and " The amusement park ? Oh - yes , a ride collapsed earlier . It's a popular reports say many were injured . Nearby hospitals are handling emergencies . Media outlets are covering it nonstop .
" " Get the car . I want to see the site myself . And check if Natalie was there . Find out if she's hurt . " Hansel blinked in surprise . " Miss Natalie ? At an amusement park ? Mr. Jensen , maybe you saw wrong . " " No mistake . That was her back - I'd recognize it anywhere ! " 1/3 He shoved his phone at Hansel , showing him the screenshot . Hansel studied it and had to admit , it did look like her . " Alright , I'll verify it right away . " He turned to leave , his mind racing .
If Natalic truly had been there - and if she was hurt - then Jensen showing his concern might open a door between them again . Jensen was thinking the same thing . He grabbed his coat and rushed out the door , heading straight for the site . Meanwhile , Natalie had taken Baron to a smaller , less conspicuous hospital . The doctors ran a full examination . Once they confirmed his internal organs weren't injured, Natalie and the children finally breathed easier . Sean slumped into a chair , guilt etched all over his face . " Mommy ... I'm sorry . I shouldn't have gone to buy something .
" Her heart broke at his words . " Sean , don't blame yourself . The world is full of accidents . We can't predict them , can't stop them ahead of time . What matters is facing them bravely and finding a way through . Your daddy rushed to save you because you're his son . We both love you . There's no way we'd stand by while you were in danger . And tell me - if it had been Daddy or me hurt today , would you have just stood there ? " " Of course not ! " Sean shook his head fiercely . Natalie stroked his hair gently . " Exactly . You wouldn't have stood by , so how could we ?
This isn't your fault . Even if you hadn't gone to buy something , the ride still would've fallen . None of us could have stopped it . Don't carry this blame , alright ? If you do ar daddy will only worry more . " Sean looked into her warm eyes , and suddenly threw his arms around her , sobbing . He had been so scared . In that moment , when his father's blood splattered across his face , his world had collapsed . No matter how well he was raised , no matter how carefully he was protected , he loved Baron deeply . And he had been terrified of losing him .
2/3 Now , with Natalie's comfort , all the fear poured out . Natalie held him close , patting his back softly , letting him cry until he had nothing left inside . By then , Susie had calmed down . She pulled out her lollipop and pressed it into Sean's hand . " Here . You can have it . " She was scared too . If she hadn't wanted a treat , her brother wouldn't have gone off to get it , and the ride wouldn't have nearly crushed him . The guilt sat heavy in her small chest . Sean wiped his tears and went with Susie to the side , murmuring to her . Watching them , Natalie's heart warmed .
They were so thoughtful , so tender . Baron had raised them well . For a man to manage that alone - she couldn't help but admire it . Soon , Yvonne arrived , rushing in with worry . " How's my brother ? " " The doctor says it's nothing serious , just superficial injuries . Take the kids home first . I'll have the doctor run another exam on Baron before I can rest easy ."
