Chapter 260 The Wrath Of Nathaniel

Nathaniel sat by the bed, watching over Christina intently while his hand held onto hers.

According to the doctor, her injury wasn’t too serious, and she would wake up once the anesthesia
wore off.

Still, Nathaniel couldn’t help but worry. Christina would surely be terrified if she were to wake up and
not see him next to her.

Outside the window, the pitch-black sky began to glower in what felt like a blink of an eye.

As the morning rays seeped into the room at dawn, Nathaniel finally realized he had remained seated
there the whole night.

The door to the ward was pushed open, and Sebastian walked in. Seeing Christina lying in bed made
him inexplicably upset.

“We’ve got the culprit, Mr. Hadley, but we’re waiting for the police to interrogate them before we can
move on to the next step,” he leaned into Nathaniel’s ear and reported.

The latter’s eyes narrowed, and his wrath instantly permeated the air in the entire room. “Follow the
police closely. I want to know every single detail.”

There’s no way they’d attack her without reason. They wouldn’t do that just because they wanted to
steal her work. Someone must be behind this whole incident.

“Yes, Mr. Hadley,” Sebastian answered and left right away.

A nurse came in to replace Christina’s bag a while later, and she couldn’t help but glance at the man
sitting nearby. He was extraordinarily handsome but looked so icy that one might get frostbite just from
being gazed at by him.



“Ah! It hurts…” A meek voice cried out softly.

After a long slumber, Christina finally opened her eyes only to shut them immediately due to the glaring
sunlight. A wave of pain came from the back of her head, causing her to nearly pass out again

“I’ll get the doctor!” the nurse announced hastily upon seeing her wake up.

After her eyes had adjusted to the light, Christina opened them once again to observe her
surroundings. Then, it dawned on her that she was in a hospital ward after seeing the white walls.

Her chest tightened momentarily before easing up.

“Christina! You’re awake.” Nathaniel rushed over to the bedside and touched her forehead with the
back of his hand. She’s not feverish. Thank goodness.

Like a lazy kitten, Christina leaned into his arms, appearing as though she hadn’t recovered from the
shock.

“Does it hurt anywhere?” Nathaniel asked, holding her by the shoulders.

“Yeah. My head hurts so much. Is it bleeding? I remember someone hitting me from behind…”

Christina tried to remember what she saw before losing consciousness. She felt as if she had seen that
man before.

I think he was one of the guys who tried to hurt me back at the mansion. Are these people for real?
They came all the way to the competition just to look for me? What did I ever do to make someone try
to get back at me like this?

Nathaniel caressed her head as he gazed at her tenderly. “Don’t worry. We’ve caught the guy, and the
police are interrogating him now. We’ll be sure to get something out of him.”



Christina scoffed. “Those guys are crazy. We can’t let him off no matter what.”

She was supposed to celebrate her joyous victory with Nathaniel today, but now, everything had been
ruined.

As the two exchanged a few more words, the doctor entered and gave Christina a full-body check-up.

Although the woman wasn’t in any serious condition, the doctor suggested she remain hospitalized
since her injury hadn’t healed. She didn’t need stitches, but there was a risk of the wound tearing by
accident, so it was best if she stayed for a few days and left only after a scab had formed.

The nurse returned at noon to change Christina’s dressing, and the latter yelped in pain. “Oww! It
hurts!”

How she wanted her assailant to be struck the exact same way so he could feel how much pain she
was in now.

Nathaniel’s gaze darkened each time she cried out. “Be more gentle,” he even warned.

The nurse was at a loss, for she was already being as gentle as she could. It was just a simple task
that she had practiced countless times, but for some reason, it suddenly began to feel a little foreign to
her.

“I’m being as gentle as I can, but there are nerves everywhere around the wound. I can’t do this in a
way that wouldn’t hurt at all. If it’s too much to bear, shall I get the doctor to give you some
anesthesia?”

The mere thought of getting anesthetized threw Christina off. While the drug would ease her pain, it
would also make her head spin all day, and she really didn’t want that.

“No… No. I don’t want anesthesia,” she whimpered. “Keep going. I’ll bear with it.”



The nurse continued, but no matter how gentle she was, the pain remained. Thankfully, it didn’t take
her long to finish.

Letting out a sigh, Christina realized how much sweat had gathered on her palm while gripping
Nathaniel’s hand.

There was a huge scowl on the man’s face, too, as though he was the one who had gone through all
that pain.

Christina touched the gauze covering her wound. She didn’t have the courage to look into a mirror and
had no idea what she looked like with a head full of bandages.

-The thought of her current appearance made her swear at her assailant internally. That b*stard! The
police should really lock up a dangerous guy like him.

A rumbling noise rang out inside the quiet room, and the woman clutched her stomach like a puppy
needing care. “I’m hungry, Nathaniel.”

Feeling sorry, Nathaniel stroked her head. “Sebastian’s on the way with some food.”

“Thank goodness my mouth isn’t injured,” Christina grumbled, puffing her cheeks. “I might starve to
death if I can’t eat-”

“Don’t say that,” Nathaniel cut her off, placing a finger on her lips.

Despite the man sounding stern, Christina sensed a hint of warmth in his voice-something she hadn’t
fel coming from him before.

She reached out with both arms and grabbed his hand tightly, placing her cheek against it to feel that
same warmth. “I’m not dreaming. You really are right next to me. Did you know? Right before I passed



out, all I could think of was you.”

As her mind began to buzz, the only person she believed could help her was Nathaniel.

That was the exact moment she realized how important he was to her.

The woman sniffed, and as soon as she glanced up slightly, a warm pair of lips engulfed hers. In that
instant, Nathaniel’s scent infiltrated every part of her body-from her lungs to her head, cells, and event
nerves.

She hugged the man’s slender waist tightly, feeling a sense of security swirling within her as she
leaned into his firm chest.

Suddenly, the door opened, and a bright light shone into the room.

Christina shoved Nathaniel away in fright and hid under her blanket, her cheeks feeling as though they
were on fire.

This is so embarrassing! Is it a doctor who came in? Oh, God! What would he think if he saw me acting
like that even though I’m injured? What if he thinks I’m tacky?
