100 Days to Seduce the Devil

Chapter 532 Not Wanting To Die Just Yet



Day Sixty-One…

~~*****~~

[ At Luiz District Hospital… ]

Mr. Hiroshi was still unconscious and Jane was watching over him. She was sitting on his bedside table. Her clothes were still messy. She hadn't washed and cleaned herself yet. She was just waiting for her father to wake up.

She was in that state when Nathan entered the ward. Nathan silently observed her at the back. He heaved a sigh of relief since Jane and Mr. Hiroshi were safe. He didn't know what had gotten into him a while ago. He entered a burning building because of Jane.

'I got enraged but at the same time, worried about her,' Nathan clenched his fists. Nathan didn't know how long he could deny it. But with every passing day, he could feel that his cold heart was slowly softening toward Jane.

Jane's mind seemed to be occupied by something since she failed to notice Nathan's presence. She felt like her remaining days would be so hectic, trying to catch every culprit who tried to harm her family. Her father became a target this time.

"Sigh. Do I need to kill more people before everything ends? Why are they targeting my loved ones?" Jane murmured to herself. She held her father's hand tightly.

Nathan slowly approached her and cleared his throat to let her know of his presence. Jane turned around to look at him. 

"Nate…" Jane softly mumbled his name.

Nathan sized her up from top to bottom. Her clothes and face were a bit dusty and dirty. "You should go and clean yourself first. I'll watch over him on your behalf."

Jane stood up and looked straight into his eyes. "Thanks, Nate."

Nathan was taken aback for a moment. He was the first one who looked away, avoiding her intense gaze. "No need to thank me. I did it for Abigail."

Jane sighed helplessly. Nathan would always think of Abigail first, instead of her. "Abi is on her way. I'll just wash up, change my clothes and come back. Take care of my father."

Jane was about to leave when she suddenly felt dizzy. She staggered in her footings and almost fell. But Nathan was quick enough to catch her. Nathan held her waist as he supported her body.

"Are you okay?" Nathan asked her. 

Jane rubbed her temples. "I'm fine."

"Did you let them examine you?" Nathan frowned.

"No need. I'm not hurt at all." Jane weakly responded. She tried to steady her footing.

"I'll drive you home," Nathan volunteered. He grabbed her hand and guided her out of the ward.

Jane didn't object. She just followed him while looking at his hand that was holding her wrist. She smiled inwardly. 

'Is Nathan worried about me?' Jane mused to herself. 

When they reached the lobby of the hospital, they saw Abigail and Dave. The two just arrived.

"Sis, are you okay? What happened to you?" Abigail approached her. 

"She dashed inside a burning building to rescue your father," Nathan butted in, telling on Jane.

Both Abigail and Dave were surprised when they heard that. "What? That's dangerous." Abigail reacted exasperatedly.I think you should take a look at pandasnovel.com

"Don't worry, sis. Everything is fine. Our father and I are safe. I'll just go home to wash and change my clothes. I'll return after that." Jane tapped her sister's shoulder, reassuring her.

"Okay, Sis. Dave and I will stay here."

Dave and Nathan glanced and nodded at each other as a sign of their greetings. They were about to leave when Jane grabbed Dave and whispered something to him. "Keep my sister safe. Don't leave her side. Understand?"

Dave bobbed his head. "I will keep her safe," he whispered back.

Nathan arched his eyebrow when he saw the exchanges of messages between Dave and Jane. However, he didn't hear them.

When they reached the parking lot, Nathan asked Jane out of his curiosity. "What did you say to him? Are you close with Dave?"

pandasnovel.com Jane just fixed her seatbelt before looking at Nathan. 'Why is he asking me this?'

"I just told him to protect my sister all the time. Why? Do you hate the idea that I'm close to my future brother-in-law? Are you still jealous of him?" Jane said spontaneously without filtering her words. Was she trying to annoy Nathan?

Nathan just glared at her before starting the car. "Are you rubbing salt on my wound?" he mumbled.

Jane let out a soft giggle when she saw Nathan's annoyed expression. She didn't expect that she could still laugh despite what happened today. 

"Nate, my world is filled with unending troubles. We've just arrived from our vacation trip and this happened. What do you think will happen next?" Jane asked him quizzically. 

Nathan frowned as he didn't understand her question. "What do you expect to happen next?" He threw the question back to her.

Jane leaned closer to him and said teasingly, "I think either of the two might happen. It's either I'm going to die next or you are going to fall for me."

Nathan: "..."

He was rendered speechless by her words. When he turned to look at her, he met her shining eyes matched with her charming smile. Unknowingly, he couldn't take his eyes off her.

Jane let out another giggle. Her laughter snapped him out of his stupor. He immediately shifted his gaze back to the road.

"Cough," Nathan cleared his throat, trying to maintain his indifferent expression.

Jane continued staring at him. Deep inside, she felt touched because Nathan came to her rescue. Although he was telling her that Abigail was the reason he went inside that burning building, part of her was hoping that she was the reason he risked his life. Furthermore, he volunteered to drive her home.

"I missed you, that's why I returned right away." Jane declared to Nathan, catching him off guard.

Screech!

A screech of brake was heard when Nathan suddenly stepped on the brake after hearing Jane's last remarks.

"Stop it, Jane!" Nathan burst out.

Jane blinked her eyes in amusement as she observed Nathan's odd reaction. Was he affected by her words? Jane chewed on her lower lip, holding her laughter.

"Okay. I'll behave. I don't want to die just yet. Drive carefully and… Safely." Jane mumbled, fighting the urge to laugh at Nathan.
