Marrying the Ugly Heir for Truth and Wealth novel Chapter 300

After several rounds, Christina spat out mouthfuls of water and finally regained her heartbeat.

“Christina, how are you feeling?”

Christina did not respond. She merely opened her eyes slightly before she passed out again.

The muscles on Nathaniel’s arm grew taut. Even though he did not utter a word, the hostility radiating off his body was so immense it filled the entire atmosphere.

He turned on all the heaters in the room. After helping Christina change out of her soaking–wet clothes, he placed his large hand over her smooth forehead. Her body had started to feel hot, and her cheeks were flushing deep red.

Nathaniel’s frown deepened into a scowl. Realizing Christina was running a fever, he picked up his phone and called their family doctor. “Be here in ten minutes.”

After concluding the call, he threw his phone onto the couch.

About ten minutes later. Raymond brought the family doctor to the room. Anxiousness clouded the latter’s face. “Mr. Hadley, the traffic was bad…”

Catching a glimpse of the icy glare that Nathaniel shot him, the doctor swallowed his words and hastily walked inside.

On the bed, Christina was running a high fever. Her brows knitted slightly, and her face was burning bright red. From her looks, it was evident she was extremely unwell.

The doctor took Christina’s temperature and gave her some medicine and an IV drip. “Mr. Hadley, do you know how to change the drip?”

“Yes.” As the heir of Hadley Corporation, Nathaniel had received all sorts of first aid skills from a young

agc.

“After she’s done with this bottle, change to the yellow one. Then lastly, the glucose drip.” The doctor left after giving a thorough explanation.

The bedroom was so quiet it felt almost as if time had stopped.

A warm, golden light lit the room up dimly. The two nuzzled against each other, with Nathaniel sitting by the bed and holding onto Christina’s burning–hot body.

A faint scent lingered in the air and swirled around Nathaniel’s nose. Breathing in the fragrance, the man felt as if Christina had filled up every cell in his body.

The following day, rays of the morning sun saturated the room, lighting up every corner.

Christina had received all doses of drip. There was still a bandage on the back of her hand, and she was still woozy

She was overly exhausted the night before and passed out in the bathtub. While she drifted in and out of sleep, she opened her eyes and saw how worried and anxious Nathaniel looked. She could tell it was a genuine display of emotions from the bottom of his heart.

A warm sensation surged within her, and she lifted her pale lips into a weak smile.

Christina wanted to get up, but her slightest movement woke Nathaniel up as she was in his arms.

The man locked her tightly in his embrace with his long arms and placed his chin on her slender shoulders. In a sluggish yet deep voice, he uttered, “Can’t stay still the moment you recover?”

Christina was briefly taken aback and turned to look at him. “I–I’m… thinking of visiting Mom and Granny.”

The sunlight brightened Christina’s soft and pure face, and her shimmering eyes were tender and warm, making one feel deeply in love with her.

Lafting his hand, Nathaniel cradled the back of her head and domineeringly pulled her to him, so close that their noses were touching

The man felt his heart soften when his eyes met with her innocent–looking gaze. “All right. I’ll send you

there.”

Christina beamed in delight and lightly left a peck on the man’s cheek. “Let’s go,

Arriving at the hospital, Christina did not let Nathaniel accompany her. “Come and pick me up after you. get off work.”

“Okay”

Nathaniel still had ruatters to attend to at work and could not stay for long

Evelyn’s and Sharon’s conditions had stabilized after a few days.
