Chapter 328

Protected By Him

“Nathaniel, I have a problem,” whispered Christina. She sounded desperate.

A flash of delight flitted across Nathaniel’s eyes. “What happened?”

He then added. “No matter what it is, I will resolve it for you.”

Christina had a feeling that Nathaniel would strip naked and run around the streets if she asked that of
him right now.

“I’m being trapped in the office, and the elevator has stopped. The stairwell door has been locked, and
the aircon keeps getting colder.”

She breathed in deeply and felt that the air was colder than before.

Nathaniel looked angry. “Wait for me. I’m heading there right away.”

“All right.”

After hanging up the phone, Christina felt a lot better.

After all, she was at the office, and her life was not in danger. All she had to do was wait for Nathaniel
to

arrive.

Madison said she was not feeling well. As for Sebastian, he had already gone home to deal with his
work. Nathaniel wanted to look through some documents, and that was why he had to rush to the
office.



He did not expect to receive a call for help from Christina while he was on the way.

Nathaniel sped up, and very soon, he arrived at the office.

He phoned the security and asked them what was going on.

The head of security was surprised to see all the important members of the company showing up that
day.

He gave Nathaniel his report but did not mention anything about Madison.

Nathaniel instructed coldly. “Resume all operations and shut off the air-conditioning.”

“Uh… It’s not possible because the system is currently undergoing an upgrade. We’ll have to wait for
three hours before we can resume operations.” The head of security did not know what to do.

“Mr. Hadley, if there’s anything, I can do it on your behalf.”

Nathaniel was furious. “No need. When the upgrade is done, resume operations. Turn off the air-
conditioning immediately.”

“Yes, Mr. Hadley.”

Since the elevator was not working. Nathaniel decided to climb up the stairs to the twenty-first floor.

Someone had definitely locked the back stairwell from the other side. Luckily, it was not a deadlock.
After turning the knob, Nathaniel was able to open the door.

He opened the office door and found a skinny figure curling up on the couch.

Nathaniel rushed up and covered her slender shoulders with his jacket. “Christina, are you all right?”



She caught the familiar sandalwood scent of his as the jacket covered her shoulders.

Christina shuddered and looked up at Nathaniel’s sweaty yet handsome face. He was breathing heavily
because of the exertion. The buttons on his shirt were opened, and his muscular chest was visible.

Although he appeared pretty wretched, Christina felt sorry for him, knowing that he had suffered
because

of her.

“I’m all right. Just feeling a little cold. That’s all.” Despite what she said, she coughed for a while.

Even though the air-conditioning had been turned off, the air was still as cold as snow frost.

“Come. Let me take you home.” Nathaniel tried to pull her up from the couch.

Christina frowned because the blood in her body was about to freeze, and she could barely move. She
felt like an ice sculpture.

“My legs are numb. I can’t walk,” she whispered ever so softly,

There was no hesitation on Nathaniel’s part. “I’ll carry you.”

He turned around with his back facing Christina before saying resolutely, “Get on my back.”

“Aren’t you tired? Why don’t you rest for a while?” He has just climbed up twenty-one floors. Now, he
wants to carry me down. Does he think that he is a robot?

Christina stared at the sweat-soaked shirt of his and did not move an inch.

Seeing that she did not climb on his back. Nathaniel turned around and teased her, “Why? Are you
feeling sorry for me?”



“You think too much. I’m just worried that you aren’t strong enough. It may be dangerous if you carry
me and walk down the stairs.”

Christina then looked away.

A smile appeared on Nathaniel’s face, and he sat down next to her on the couch. They were so close
to one another that they could almost feel each other’s warmth.

“The security says that it will take another three hours before things can resume back to normal. After a
short rest, I will carry you down.”

Christina was thinking that her legs would be able to move in a short while. By then, she would not
require his help to carry her down.

The two of them sat there in silence. Gradually, the cold air dissipated, and the atmosphere in the room
began to ease up.

The room was dark as there was no light.

Christina found it better that way. At least they would not have to look at one another. It would have
been embarrassing.

Unfortunately, it was also quite scary in the darkness.

juddenly, lightning flashed across the sky, followed by a loud boom. It looked as if the lightning was
about

o cut the office into two.

Christina was looking out the window at that time, and she got a fright.



‘Ah!” she screamed before taking cover under the most reliable place instinctively. Her hands were
covering her ears, and she was trembling.

Nathaniel pulled her into his arms and comforted her gently, “Don’t be afraid. I’m here.”

His words calmed Christina down immediately.

Every time she got scared, Nathaniel would hold her in his arms and calm her down in that manner.

As time passed, all she could hear was the sound of the raindrops and Nathaniel’s heartbeats.

With his arms around her, Nathaniel muttered, “You are still afraid of lightning and thunder. Every time,
you will bury yourself in my arms. There were a few times when you banged so hard against my chest
that it hurt, but I dared not tell you for fear that you would not hide in my arms again…”

Christina bit her lip and said nothing even though she heard what he said.

All of a sudden, the lights came on.

She looked up in relief and noticed how close his gorgeous face was to hers. Her eyelashes flitted. In
fact, their faces were so close that they were about to touch,

Christina’s heart skipped a beat as she instinctively moved backward. However, Nathaniel did not give
her a chance. He grabbed the back of her head and sealed her lips with his.

His kisses assaulted her senses like a storm.

This time around, Christina could not hear any raindrops or Nathaniel’s heartbeats. All she could hear
was her own heartbeats that were getting quicker by the second.



It was after some time before Nathaniel released her. The two of them glanced at each other while they
were catching their breaths.

“Let’s go.”

He stood up and pulled Christina out of the office.

Christina refused to let him carry her. In the end, they held each other’s hands as the together.

Nathaniel’s palms were sweating, but he refused to let go of her hand.

walked down!

Looking at his back, Christina found her determination wavering. She did not seem to hate him as
much, and she certainly did not care about the things that happened in the past…

However, the thought of Madison annoyed her still.

After getting in the car, Nathaniel put on the seatbelt for her before getting into the driver’s seat.

Christina thought that he would send her back to Scenic Garden Manor, so she closed her eyes for a
while.

By the time she woke up, the car had stopped in front of a luxury condominium and not Scenic Garden
Manor.
