Chapter 431: Delete It
She turned on the video mode, started to record a video of him.
Her movements woke Nathan up soon.
“What are you doing?” He glared at her with blurred eyes.
“Who allows you to film me!?”
“Look at this stunning face, what a waste not to record it!”
Since Crystal had known Nathan’s health condition, she seized every chance to praise him, which made him really not used to it.
“What did you film? Let me see!”
Crystal showed him the video she had just filmed.
As soon as Nathan took a few looks, his face turned green.
“Where did you get this crack mobile? It makes me get out of shape!”
“Indeed, the pixel is a little bit...” Crystal couldn’t help roasting her mobile.
“Delete it,” he issued an order in a cold voice, “and the photos taken yesterday.”
“I won’t do that.” Crystal put the mobile in front of her chest to protect it.
“Nathan, how about I take a photo of you every day? So that I can record a different you every day!”
Nathan pinched her nose gently in displeasure. “You can discuss it with me after getting better photography skills!”
When Crystal wasn’t looking, Nathan snatched the mobile from her hand, turned around Crystal, and deleted the video.
Crystal climbed up to him, hugged him from behind, and bit him gently on the shoulder.
Then she even blew at his ear and bit it.
Nathan slightly trembled. He jerked up and turned around, pressed her under, and stared at her aggressively.
“Don’t you know that morning is the most difficult time for a man to control his sexual passion?”
“Isn’t it difficult for you all the time?” Crystal looked at him with innocently big eyes.
“Crystal Smith, don’t challenge my endurance!”
As punishment, he blocked her lips with his, kissed, and sucked them with force.
After they finished tidying themselves up, they found that it was already lunchtime.
The peasant woman served them warm and thick soup, saying that it had herbs inside and was good for their health.
Crystal caught the faintest drift of the herbs’ fragrance but did not feel nausea.
Although the place was simple, the scenery here had great charm. Even the water was particularly sweet, and the air was incredibly fresh.
“It tastes good. Nathan, eat more.”
“If you like her, I can hire her to serve you.”
“Do you think you can buy everything with money?”
“If she dares to say no, I’ll blow this place off,” Nathan hummed coldly.
Crystal clattered out a smile, then looked straight at him seriously, “Do you really want to ruin the place where we have good memories.”
“I just want you to be happy.”
“But I will be depressed if you do that.”
“Fine, I won’t do that,” he squinted his eyes, “I’ll give them a sum of money. Whenever you want to come here, you can come and stay for a few days.”
“Have some soup,” Crystal said in a deep voice, “your soup is getting cold.”
After a few seconds’ silence, Nathan answered, “It’s specially made for you, not suitable for me.”
“How did you know that?” Crystal looked at the peasant woman for confirmation.
The peasant woman happened to be walking out of the kitchen with a bowl of noodles in her hands.
“Yes, the soup is for you. I made noodles for him, which have mushrooms, glossy Ganoderma, and some other food that can prevent the side effects of chemotherapy.
The soup was delicious. Without overthinking, Crystal ate several large bowls of it in one breath.
Soon, she felt her eyelids a bit heavy and a little sleepy.
She propped her head up onto her hand, watching Nathan eat up the noodles.
But she’s getting more and more sleepy and even began to doze off.
Gradually, she fell into a panic.
“Nathan, what have you done to me?” Crystal asked with anxiety.
Nathan’s hand holding the spoon stiffened.
“You...” Crystal looked at the peasant woman.
“What did you put in the soup?”
The peasant woman sighed, “They’re some herbs that help soothe your nerves, so you’re particularly sleepy. But don’t worry, they’re all-natural herbs, it won’t harm your health.”
“Why do you do this to me!?” Crystal's voice trembled with emotion.
In the next second, she swung her arm, swept the empty soup bowl to the ground.
The bowl immediately broke into several pieces, scaring the peasant woman to step back.
“Your boyfriend made me do that, I have no choice...” the peasant woman explained.
Nathan stroked her hair, “Crystal, you know, pregnant women should have a good rest. Just take a good sleep.”
Crystal jerked up and reached for him. “You want to leave me here and escape alone?”
What Nathan was doing now was what she had done to him before.
Being abandoned by someone you love turns out to feel like that...
Crystal sneered at herself.
Her heart was as ache as if being torn apart.
She clasped Nathan’s wrist, exerted all her strength, and yelled, “I told you, we could undertake everything together! Why do you have to push me away from you?!”
“It’s late. Crystal, you can’t undertake it with me,” Nathan frowned tightly, with pain, reluctance and resolution in his eyes, “give birth to the baby, be Mrs. Bush and live a peaceful and happy life.”
Crystal still clutched his sleeve.
“Are you planning to leave me here alone? Aren’t you afraid that I will be in danger?”
“I’ll send some people to pick you up, they will protect you,” he already made up his mind, “and I’ll send you back to Eric Bush.”
“He fell into a coma again after waking up once that day...”
“But he will wake up someday.”
“Nathan Davis, aren’t you afraid that I will hurt myself after you leave?” Crystal threatened, “If you dare to leave, just wait to attend my funeral!”
Nathan stared at her, stroked her cheek, and smiled, “You won’t.”
His firm voice sounded over her head, “You have always said that you can also live well without me.”
“I...” Crystal lost her tongue.
“You’re tough. Without me, you can also have a wonderful life.”
Crystal's heart ached.
“No, it’s not like that... I, I can’t lose you...” Crystal defended.
Nathan thumbed her lips gently to stop her from talking.
“If you didn’t know about my illness, would you have come back to me?”
His forceful arguments silenced Crystal.
“You’re just feeling sorry for me.”
“I’m not!” Crystal denied with absolute certainty.
She chose to be with Nathan because she loved him.
“You don’t need to feel sorry. I had a good day, really.” Nathan grinned. He wanted to leave her the most stunning impression for the last moment.
“It’s not even a day yet....” Crystal bit her lower lip to stop her sleepiness.
“Nathan Davis! You big liar!” She scolded.
Nathan leaned over her, kissed her on the lips, poked his tongue into her mouth, and stirred wantonly.
His smell filled her mouth; it was fascinating but bitter.
Crystal grasped his clothes, but her fingers became weaker and weaker.
“Don’t bite your lips again,” he whispered, “it makes my heart ache.”
Gradually, Crystal's hands slipped down powerlessly.
Nathan slowly loosened her and turned around.
Seeing him leaving, Crystal grabbed the iron spoon, stabbed it on her arm with all her strength.
The edge of the spoon was dull, but she stabbed with great force to make herself ache.
The peasant woman was astonished.
She hurriedly shouted, “Put down the spoon!”
Nathan grabbed her by the wrist and scolded, “Are you crazy!?”
She wished there was a knife around her or a fork so that she could have stabbed herself with them and would not be so sleepy.
Though her sight became fuzzy, she caught a glimpse of the broken bowl she had just thrown on the ground.
She leaned over the ground, trying to grab the porcelain.
Nathan hastened to stop her and, at the same time, kicked the porcelain away with a leg.
“Crystal Smith, wake up!”
“Why...” Crystal could not hold back her emotion and melted into tears.
Her tears were as if the burning lava burned a hole in Nathan’s chest.
“It took me great effort to walk to you... but you pushed me away...” Crystal began to slur.
Her words suffocated Nathan, making him tremble all over.
Tears kept streaming down Crystal's cheek.
“No... I don’t want to lose you in this way... Even... even if you’re dying, I want to be by your side... I hope I’m the one who... who accompanies you till the last moment...”
“Nathan, I don’t want you to be lonely even at the last moment in this world...”
“And I don’t want you... to become my life regret... Do you understand?
