Itâs just a few steps. The fall didnât even cause her much harm. What a phonyâ
She leisurely walked down the stairs before faking concern and inquiring. âAre you all right. Ms. Steele? Why didnât you watch where you were going?â
Christina, who had just been helped up from the floor, had a frosty expression as she replied flatly. âAnyone who is pushed all of a sudden is surely to fall, donât you think?â
She had no intention of brushing the matter off.
Even if sheâs Ms. Gibson, I still wonât show her any mercy.
Azure inhaled sharply as she stared at her granddaughter in disbelief. âAnya, why did you push Christina?â
Anya returned her gaze with an aggrieved look, tears streaming down her cheeks. âI didnât do it, Grandma! Why did you wrong me, Ms. Steele?â
Azure was immediately put in a difficult position. Just then, her assistant walked in hastily and informed her. âThe car is ready.
Weâre taking Ms. Steele to the hospital first, right?â
âYes.â With that, Azure and her assistant escorted Christina out.

âAll right,â Christina replied.
Worry appeared on Azureâs face when she heard that, âDoctor, will this keep her from drawing?â
Christina could not afford to hurt her hand as a designer.
Anya grabbed her grandmotherâs hand and brought the elderly lady to her side, saying aggrievedly. âShe hurt her left hand, Grandma. How can that keep her from drawingâ
Christinaâs expression darkened, showing her displeasure. Even if it wasnât the hand I used to draw that was injured, I still canât let it go.

After saving that, she sobbed aggrievedly on Azureâs shoulder once more.
Christina let out a snort Shes so good at twisting the truth She should just become an actress, Since the living room had no surveillance cameras, Anya could say whatever she liked.
She even smiled smugly at Christina from an angle where no one could see her.
Christina furrowed her brows slightly as her tone turned frosty. âWhy should I wrong you when we donât know one another? Do you have a persecutory delusion disorder, Ms. Gibson? Or amnesia after doing something bad?â
The air seemed to freeze around them, and just as Azure was lost in a dilemma, the emergency room door burst open.
Christina lifted her gaze and was greeted by the sight of Nathaniel walking toward her anxiously.
He pushed aside everyone around her before sitting beside her. âWhere are you hurt?â he asked worriedly.
A strong sense of oppression filled the emergency room the minute his tall figure appeared. Anger was written all over his stern face, and his deep gaze was like a bottomless abyss. A single look from him could. strangle someone in that darkness.
The imposing aura he exuded made the people present hold their breaths.
Christina lifted her injured hand and complained, âI sprained it.â
The gauze emitted a sharp medicinal scent. Nathaniel appeared even angrier than when he was injured. and asked through gritted teeth, âWho did it?â
âMs. Gibson.â
This time, Christina did not give Anya a chance to speak.
Azure was aware of Nathanielâs identity and surprisingly felt a sense of comfort when she saw how concerned he was for Christina.
Anya was so startled by the aura of the man before her that she hid behind her grandmother as if she was the one who was hurt earlier. âIâm scared, Grandma.â
Christina found her reaction amusing. Finally feeling scared, huh? Werenât you still acting arrogant just now?
She had never liked arguing about right or wrong, but she would not let herself be bullied either.
Azure did not wish to exacerbate the situation, so she opted to calm things down before making a decision. âThis matter hasnât been sorted out yet.â
Nathaniel raised his emotionless gaze and responded in a chilly tone. âMy wife was injured at your house. Itâs not something that can be resolved with just a simple sentence. How will I know if you wonât harbor the wrongdoer?â
As he spoke, his frosty gaze fell on Anya.

Il investigate and provide you with a reasonable explanation,â she promised calmly.
With her grandmotherâs support. Anya felt more at ease. Grandma will never send me out to be punished.
âIll accept that. You only have three days. If you donât give a clear explanation, donât blame me for being ruthless, Nathaniel said in a warning tone.
With that, he lifted Christina into his arms and strode out.
After they left the emergency room. Christina suddenly tugged on Nathanielâs lapel. âI forgot to collect the medicine,â she uttered.
âIâll get it. Wait for me here.
He placed her on a chair in the corridor before taking off his suit jacket and draping it on her thin shoulders âIll be quick.
With that, he strode away. Christina felt a rush of warmth inside her as she stared at his retreating back.
Due to her petite figure and being covered by a jacket, it was hard to spot her if one was not paying attention.
Suddenly, a black figure walked past her. The manâs hurried footsteps caught Christinaâs attention.
She was surprised when she looked up at him. Isnât that Yerek?
She watched as he walked briskly and bumped into Anya when he arrived at the intersection of the corridor. They exchanged glances and said something to one another before entering the elevator together.
Christina was puzzled. Do they know one another? They have the same surname, so could they be relatives?
Just as she was pondering about that, Nathaniel returned with the medicine. âI can walk by myself.â
Christina stood up as soon as she said that, but the next moment, her feet had left the ground. Nathaniel lifted her into his arms, pressing their bodies so close that the warmth and sound of his heartbeat thundered in her ear.
âItâs faster if I carry you.â
After leaving the hospital entrance, Nathaniel carried Christina into the car. âGo back to Scenic Garden Manor,â he instructed.
The driver quickly started the car and drove off.
He held her hand and inquired with his brows furrowed slightly, âDoes it hurt?â
He could not hide the worry in his gaze, as if his precious treasure had shattered into pieces.
