Let Me Stay The Night novel Chapter 364

“Didn’t I tell you not to follow me?” Christina knitted her brows. The reddened mark left by the tight grip on her porcelain-white wrist was easily noticeable.

When Nathaniel held up her hand to take a closer look, his eyes-hidden behind his sunglasses- brimmed with sympathy

As one of her fringes fell to her cheeks from behind her ear, she looked like a lost pet that was perpetually in need of protection.

Faced with his silence, Christina couldn’t bring herself to reprimand him any further.

Thus, she retracted her hand and remarked, “I’m fine. Let’s head back now.”

She was worried that Nathaniel would go off and confront Francis instead.

However, before they could get far, Francis came up from behind and yelled for them to stop.

He then grabbed Christina by the wrist. “Christina, we aren’t done talking yet.”

“I don’t think there’s anything more for us to talk about. I just want to go home.” When Christina struggled to free her hand, she felt another painful sting on her wrist.

Meanwhile, Francis glared at the towering figure in front of him. He somehow found the aura exuded by: the young man to be familiar.

“Christina, how can you accept Nathaniel’s repeated lies yet be unwilling to forgive me?” Raging jealousy had caused Francis’ blood to boil.

If Christina refuses to forgive me, what makes Nathaniel, who started all this, deserving of her forgiveness? If that’s the case, I’ll make all of us suffer together.

Underneath the light, his pale white complexion made him look sickly, while the amber tint in his seemed to be burning through the last of his rational mind.

Christina gave him a puzzled look. “Why do you say that Nathaniel has lied to me repeatedly?”

At that moment, Nathaniel figured that Francis had seen through his disguise.

eyes

Under those circumstances, it made sense for Francis to probe further, even if the bodyguard wasn’t Nathaniel.

Hidden behind his sunglasses, Nathaniel’s eyes narrowed. His palm subsequently balled into fists while his biceps tensed up as if he was ready for battle at any moment.

As memories of the past played through his mind like a rolling tape, Francis was reminded that both of them would always like the same thing and fight each other for it.

Neither was ever willing to back down.

The winner would always leave with the spoils; the loser could only watch on helplessly.

Upon regaining his senses, Francis pointed at the tall figure. “He’s Nathaniel, not some bodyguard at all.”

Christina’s heart skipped a beat as she gave Nathaniel a suspicious look. “He isn’t. He just resembles him.”

After spending time with each other over the last few days, she never managed to confirm it despite her

suspicions.

Amidst a sudden silence, a gust of wind brought a chilly sensation to the scene.

It was then that Francis broke into an abrupt smile. As the corner of his mouth was cut during the violent beating carlier, any slight movement would cause blood to ooze out of the wound. “Christina, you don’t understand Nathaniel at all. Ever since he was a child, he has been possessive. He would rob me of anything I fancy or destroy it if he couldn’t have it. In the past, he kept you by his side out of lust, but

now…”

Francis gaze shifted to the black figure before declaring in a mocking tone. “He wants to have you simply because of my feelings for you.”

Francis’ words were like a knife that cut through the beautiful facade of Christina’s world, forcing her to face the cruel reality behind it.

Blinking her eyes, she was unable to stay calm, as if her heart was suspended in mid-air.
