A Crazy Night (Nathaniel and Christina) novel Chapter 701

Chapter 701 A Misunderstanding

The entire car was engulfed in flames after the explosion.

“Clean up the mess, Sebastian.” Fearing that this incident would affect Christina’s baby, Nathaniel carried her into his car after giving the order.

A faint smile formed on Emilia’s lips as she stared at the flames in the distance. She then rolled the car window down and tossed the black controller out.

Now that I have gotten rid of Anya, my next target is Christina! I will make her suffer a thousand times more!

With that in mind, Emilia drove off feeling amazing.

As though Sebastian had heard something, he turned around and glanced at the end of the road. He had a little furrow between his eyebrows when he saw a black car disappear from sight.

“Go check and see if there are any surveillance cameras nearby,” he said while motioning at a bodyguard.

“On it!” the bodyguard replied and ran off to carry out his duty.

Nathaniel kept Christina company while she got an examination at the hospital before they returned to Scenic Garden Manor. She had planned on taking a short nap in the afternoon, but the shock from earlier -had left her so exhausted that she slept till the evening.

While heading downstairs for dinner, Christina saw that Lyle was nowhere to be found. “Where’s Lyle?” she asked.

The look in Nathaniel’s eyes turned slightly cold. “He was not able to protect you, so I have sent him back to the camp for more training. I will get you another bodyguard.”

Nathaniel had actually wanted to replace Lyle, but he couldn’t really find another bodyguard as capable as Lyle.

“It’s not his fault. Everything happened way too quickly. None of us thought Anya would be bold enough to kidnap me in broad daylight. I told him to go buy me some pastries, and I let my guard down while waiting. That’s how Anya managed to get me,” Christina explained.

“He did not follow protocol, so he needs to be punished accordingly,” Nathaniel said coldly while placing a chunk of fish on her plate.

Christina put her cutlery down and stood up. “I have gotten used to Lyle’s protection, and I don’t want to waste any more time and energy adapting to a new guy. I’m done eating.”

She then turned around and went upstairs.

Nathaniel could tell that she was clearly throwing a tantrum. Not wanting to upset her any further, he gave Sebastian a call and said, “Have Lyle transferred back here. Also, pair some of the more agile and sharp- -witted men with him. I want them protecting Christina in secret.”

Sebastian was not surprised when he heard Nathaniel’s order. “Understood.”

Nathaniel took a sip of red wine and made his way into the courtyard. “How is the investigation going? Did you manage to find anything?”

“Anya’s car had been tampered with. They rewrote her car’s programming so they could control it from a

distance. I suspect that the person who did it was nearby at the time. Unfortunately, there were no surveillance cameras near the abandoned school, so we were unable to identify that person.”

“Emilia is Anya’s accomplice. Go find out where she has been today,” Nathaniel ordered icily.

Now that Anya is dead, we won’t be able to prove that Emilia was her accomplice based on Christina’s testimony alone.
