Marrying the Ugly Heir for Truth and Wealth novel Chapter 520

Nevertheless, he quickly regained his composure and flipped aside his blanket to get out of bed. “Take me to where Christina fell.”

Given the gravity of the situation, Sebastian and Francis led him there, as neither of them dared to disobey.

Upon arriving at the location where Christina had fallen into the sea, Nathaniel’s eyes twitched.

He had to muster all his strength just to stop his urge to jump down.

“How long has the search been going on?”

“More than half an hour,” Sebastian replied.

A frown descended on Nathaniel’s face, for he couldn’t imagine the condition Christina was in after being lost at sea for that period of time.

Turning around, he put on his diving gear to join the rescue team in their search.

Driving a speedboat, Nathaniel searched within a five-kilometer radius of where Christina was last seen before expanding the area to a ten-kilometer radius.

He would go on to comb every inch of the ocean.

Fortunately, the area was a shallow bay that was popular with tourists, and there were also no predators such as sharks.

Even then, Christina would likely be injured after falling from such heights. It didn’t help that she was also at risk of being washed away by the waves.

As time ticked by, everyone began to fear for the worst.

It was then that someone shouted, “We found her!”

The words were like a light that pierced through the darkness, causing everyone’s eyes to brighten.

Having been informed of the development through his earpiece, Nathaniel hurried over at once.

However, the sight of Madison being pulled out of the water extinguished the hope he had harbored within him.

Meanwhile, the Lesley and Taggart families had also arrived at the scene upon hearing the news,

After CPR was applied to her, Madison began to throw up seawater and regained her pulse. It was just that she had yet to regain her consciousness.

Maggie, broken-hearted over the state of her granddaughter and having fainted from crying earlier, ordered Madison to be taken to the best hospital around upon learning that the latter was still alive.

“Wait!” Just as the medical personnel was about to load Madison onto the vehicle arranged by the Taggart family, Nathaniel stopped them.

He offered, “Old Mrs. Taggart, I have just made a call and arranged for the best doctors to treat Ms. Taggart. Please let my men send her over.”

Maggie’s expression changed upon hearing his words. “You don’t have to. The Taggart family can still afford a doctor.”

However, the look on Nathaniel’s face darkened as he blocked Maggie’s way. He looked like an immovable. mountain in front of her.

Pinching the rosary in her hands, Maggie was well aware of what Nathaniel was up to.

Everything would be fine if Christina were to be found. Otherwise. Madison’s life might end up being forfeited.

“Preston, now that your fiancée is hurt, shouldn’t you go to the hospital with her?” Maggie turned around to look at the Lesley family after giving the matter some thought.

If the Taggart and Lesley families were to stand together at this moment, Nathaniel wouldn’t be able to forcefully take Madison away regardless of how powerful he was.

As for Preston, the heir to the Lesley family, he was naturally a handsome and chivalric man. Nonetheless, he still lacked the domineering aura which Nathaniel possessed.

Fortunately, not only was he rich, but he also had a calm head.

Immediately after the incident, he found out that Christina was the other person who fell into the sea with Madison. Using that lead, he began to further his investigations.

Consequently, the reporters-pressured by the powerful Lesley family-revealed that Madison had called them there.

As Preston was aware that Madison used to be an employee at Hadley Corporation, he could guess why she invited so many reporters over.
