Chapter 376: He Did Come
At this time, the current was a little urgent, it was still difficult to save people.
Crystal anxiously stood on the shore.
Nathan fiercely turned her shoulders, “You haven’t answered me yet, why are you taking her here?”
“Mr. Davis’ birthday….”
Nathan frowned, “Do you have to say that rhetoric?”
Crystal looked at him, “Can we talk later?”
“No!” He said cruelly, “What else are you hiding from me? Make it clear all at once.”
“Do you know that Mrs. Bush and Mr. Davis had a relationship before?”
Nathan frowned, he looked stunned, with a hint of astonishment flashing in his eyes.
It seemed that he didn’t know before.
At this time, the bodyguard had rescued Mrs. Bush.
Crystal hadn’t had much time to talk with Nathan, she pushed him away and ran over.
It was very cold now, Mrs. Bush had been in a coma because she had inhaled some water.
Crystal immediately went over to give her artificial respiration.
“Cough-”
After coughed out a sip of water, Mrs. Bush glanced around in a daze and finally fell her eyes on Nathan’s face.
She stretched out her hand hard, “Amos.”
Nathan stood still and looked at her coldly, he was still lost in shock at the news just now, with the terrifying expression.
“Amos… we, we have a child…”
Mrs. Bush put one hand on her abdomen, and the other hand tried to attract Nathan’s attention.
But the cruel man just looked at her condescendingly.
She sadly wept, “Amos, please don’t abandon our child and me…”
Crystal took off her coat, pushed Mrs. Bush’s hand back, and put it on her.
“Take us back, she is sick. She can’t be stimulated anymore.”
Nathan ordered the bodyguard to take Mrs. Bush hurriedly back to the manor.
Crystal was about to get on her horse to follow up, but a tall figure stopped her, “You haven’t made it clear yet. Mrs. Bush is Eric’s mother, you care about her so much?”
“I have told you everything I know, what else do you want me to say?” Suddenly a gust of wind blew Crystal, who had already taken off her coat, shivering heavily. She only wore a woolen plaid dress, pantyhose, and boots.
It was too little for such a cold day.
Nathan mounted his horse, stretched out a hand to pull Crystal.
But Crystal shook her head and said, “I can ride a horse by myself.”
“Where is your horse?”
Crystal looked back and saw that her horse had been taken away by the bodyguard with Mrs. Bush.
She hesitated for a moment and finally gave him her hand helplessly. Nathan lifted her hard and got her on horseback.
She had stood in the cold wind, which almost had frozen her bones just now, while now she was sitting in front of Nathan, leaning against him. The breath of his body immediately surrounded her, making her feel very warm.
While Nathan could smell the fragrance of her hair as long as he lowered his head, he unbuttoned the belt with one hand, then unbuttoned the riding uniform jacket and wrapped her in his clothes.
Before Crystal reacted, he had started to button his coat….
Crystal was very thin and small, so it was not too crowded even if Nathan had buttoned her into his clothes.
“Hey!” Crystal was startled and subconsciously looked at Mabel.
She was riding a white horse, waiting for them under the tree, her expression was quiet, and her black and white eyes were secretly looking at Crystal.
She was not stupid, since she first saw Crystal, she had seen through that Nathan’s eyes on Crystal were very special.
It was so special that no one could ignore it.
Crystal twisted her body, “What are you doing? Your fiancée is over there.”
She wanted to break free, but she was afraid that they would both fall.
Nathan said coldly, “Don’t worry, she is very considerate. She knows what she is supposed to say and what would not.”

“Unlike you, she doesn’t talk duplicity, and she won’t say something that she is not supposed to say, not like someone who will only increase my aversion.” His hot breath blew on her head.
Crystal’s heart sank like being stabbed by a needle.
No wonder she thought that she was different from Mabel.
Nathan rode a horse in front, Mabel followed him silently.
Crystal wanted to tell him to hurry up because she was embarrassed to be like this. But she knew that he did so to take care of her body.
This made Crystal can’t help but feel sad again, at this time, he was still considering it for her.
The blue sky was still studded with white clouds as if they could be picked up as long as people reached out.
On the lawn, two horses moved slowly, one after the other. Except for the sound of hoofbeat, there was seemingly a bird sound. The emptiness was a bit terrifying, especially with the strange silent atmosphere.
Crystal smelled the unique mint fragrance of his body. They were physically close to each other, but their hearts were as far apart as they were thousands of miles apart.
The throbbing pain in her heart had never stopped since she met him.
Crystal wondered in her heart, “Why was it so painful? Nathan, what should I do to stop the pain in my heart?”
She only hoped that this journey could be a bit longer. If it never ended, how good would it be?
But how could it be possible?
The manor was just in front. They rode until the gate, Nathan hadn’t dismounted yet. Because he didn’t get off, Mabel also sat on horseback obediently, and the servants came over to tie the rope.
Crystal bit her lower lip. How did she want to get off? But if someone came, what would they think about them when they looked at this?
“Let me down.” She moved. She wouldn’t be able to get out if he didn’t unbutton his coat.
Nathan’s body was slightly stiff, and his arm slowly raised.
He seemed to exhaust all energy to untie one button.
Crystal finally left his embrace, and the cold wind poured in at once, but how could it be compared with her heart?
He jumped off the horse abruptly and naturally reached out to her. She hesitated for a moment but still let him hug her.
There was a loud sound of hoofbeat at this moment outside the manor. It was probably the owner of the manor, Amos.
Sure enough, all the people at the gate stood up straight and even bowed to salute.
Crystal looked over nervously, dozens of bodyguards accompanying him, walking off toward them majestically.
Amos was riding in the middle, dressed in a dark riding uniform, majestic and noble. Crystal vividly saw his appearance as he walked in, which was somewhat similar to Nathan.
While Nathan’s eyes fell on Eric, he thought in his heart, “He did come!”
Crystal only felt a pain on her shoulder, and a cold air spread from Nathan.
He took off his coat suddenly and rudely threw it aside.
The servant nearest to him quickly caught it.
Nathan’s sullen gaze swept away, and he said, “Why did you pick it up? Throw such dirty things away.”
The servant responded and was about to throw it into the trash can.
“Wait!”
The servant stood still, “…”
“Burn it!”
Burn it?
The servant widened her eyes in confusion. Nathan seemed to have some terrible virus stuck on his whole body, turned around, and walked in quickly.
Mabel also hurriedly got off her horse, following Nathan, but she had given Crystal a meaningful look before leaving.
Crystal, “…”
