Let Me Stay The Night

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
