A Crazy Night (Nathaniel and Christina) novel Chapter 634

Chapter 634 Nightmare

The giant floor-to-ceiling window of the studio was smashed before a few sticks of fire were hurled through the hole. In an instant, the studio was set ablaze.

The fire spread rapidly, and its thick smoke stung everyone’s eyes.

Christina was the first to react to the situation and shouted, “Run!”

When the people in the restroom heard the commotion, they immediately left to check the situation. The moment they saw the fire, they sprinted outside.

“Where are you going?” questioned Christina as she grabbed Rayne, who was running into the fire. She was also covering her nose and mouth while coughing.

“Many clients’ information is kept on the computer. I can’t let it be destroyed. You should leave first, Christina. I’ll be out soon.” Without hesitation, Rayne shoved Christina’s hand away and bolted into the

office.

Christina couldn’t watch Rayne dove into the fiery claws of death and do nothing. However, after turning back and taking a few steps forward, she felt someone holding her shoulder. Swiftly, she turned around and heard Lyle speaking with a pant. “Forgive me, Mrs. Hadley!”

Before Christina could react, she registered pain coming from the back of her neck and blacked out.

Lyle promptly carried Christina out of the fire and requested the employees send the latter to an ambulance. After that, he jumped back into the burning building.

When Nathaniel learned the studio was set aflame and that Christina was urgently sent to the hospital, he became frenzied. He ignored all red lights as he sped to this destination.

When the car arrived at the hospital, Sebastian practically crawled out of the vehicle. Unlike Nathaniel, he couldn’t just dash off after experiencing that extreme speed because he wasn’t as physically fit.

Despite his weak legs, he forced himself to keep up with Nathaniel.

Nathaniel ignored Lyle, who was guarding Christina’s ward, and entered the room.

At that moment, Christina was sleeping soundly on the bed, though her face was pale, and she was wearing an oxygen mask.

Agony struck every part of Nathaniel’s body as he stared at her.

“Mr. Hadley, the doctor said Mrs. Hadley and her baby are healthy. She only inhaled a small amount of smoke, so she isn’t in danger,” reported Lyle in a small voice upon ambling into the room.

His naked arms suffered varying degrees of scald, with some parts revealing the bloody flesh underneath his skin. It was a harrowing sight. His golden hair was singed, producing a faint charred scent in the air.

With furrowed eyebrows, Nathaniel glanced at him. “You should treat your wounds first. Report to me later.”

“Understood!” Lyle nodded.

When he left the ward, he met Sebastian, who was still carsick.

Sebastian arched his eyebrow in response to seeing Lyle’s wretched state. “It’s only been a few hours. Why did you look like that?”

Lyle scoffed and retorted mercilessly, “You don’t seem to be doing better than me.”

Glancing at the ward, Sebastian changed the topic. “Is Mrs. Hadley doing okay?”

“She’s fine.”

Pressing his hand on Lyle’s shoulder, Sebastian urged, “Take me to a doctor, too. Quickly. My head’s spinning so hard that I think I’m about to see God.” Next time, I would rather crawl to my destination than re- experience the overwhelming fear of staying inside a speeding car!

Lyle rolled his eyes and snorted. Although, he didn’t abandon the half-dead Sebastian and dragged the latter to a doctor by the collar. novelxo.com fast update

Christina was tormented by nightmares and woke up with a scream. “No!”

Hugging her, Nathaniel reassured, “It’s me, Christina. Everything’s fine.”

Christina heaved and felt her throat burning. Focus gradually returned to her dazed eyes.

Abruptly, she gripped the edge of Nathaniel’s shirt as though she was clutching onto a beam of light in the darkness and wailed. “Nathaniel!”

“I’m here,” reassured Nathaniel softly, patting her lean back with his warm palm. “No need to be afraid. I’ll stay by your side.”

“I want to drink some water. After collecting herself, she left his embrace and stared at him,

“I’ll grab you a glass. Give me a second.” Nathaniel stood, poured a glass of water for Christina, and reminded her, “Drink slowly. I can refill it if you want more.”

She glugged down half a pot’s worth of water before the stinging pain in her throat was relieved. “What happened to the others from the studio? What about Rayne? Is she okay?”

“The employees are fine, and Lyle saved Rayne from the fire. All of them were slightly injured, but none of their lives are in danger.”

Christina’s anxiety was finally put to rest as she lowered her head and patted her rounded abdomen. “I had two nightmares earlier. I dreamed of Rayne being burned alive and my mother falling from a skyscraper while I watched…”
