Crying Her a River Chapter 81
When Nikita got back, Jasmine and Mason were still there. They finally breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that she was unharmed.The next day, Jasmine went back to Halvord City with Nikita and the others.After they got back, Nikita got a reply from a client she had contacted previously. The client was willing to choose their company to collaborate with.It was a large order, and it would require several designers to work together. Naturally, Mason gave Nikita the biggest and most important part of the job.After Nikita got back from her business trip, she did not take any time to rest and immersed herself in her work at once. She busied herself with the preliminary design drafts. She sat in front of the computer for two days and finally drew the first draft of the design. She stood up and stretched, then picked up a glass and walked over to the pantry.When she reached the door to the pantry, she heard her name."There must be something going on between Nikita and Mr. Gra

"What are you doing?" Nikita suddenly spoke up, making Jessica jump in fright. Her knees buckled, and she almost fell.She turned abruptly, and there was a flash of panic and fear on her face when she saw Nikita. "D-didn't you get off work?"Nikita waved the keys in her hand. "I did get off work. If I hadn't left my keys in the office, I wouldn't have caught you deleting my design draft."She put her phone away.Jessica finally realized that Nikita had been recording. She broke into a cold sweat and reached out to grab her phone.Nikita took two steps back to avoid her and said very coldly, "I'm going to give this video to Mr. Gray tomorrow. Tonight, you'd better think about how you're going to explain it."Nikita pushed Jessica away, turned off her computer, and left.She already had backups of that design draft in her online drive, and she was not worried about Jessica deleting it at all. She just hadn't expected to catch someone in such a despicable act while coming back to g

Suddenly, a strong force pulled Nikita aside, and the sound of a knife piercing through flesh and blood rang out in the air.Nikita's face bumped against a firm, broad chest, and Nathaniel couldn't help grunting with pain.He raised a foot and sent Jessica's knife flying.The knife was kicked several feet away. At that moment, Harvey ran over and subdued Jessica easily.He took the phone from Jessica and handed it to Nikita. "Here's your phone, Ms. Shea."Nikita took it in a daze. She saw out of the corner of her eye that Nathaniel's arm was still bleeding. There was a very deep cut on his forearm, and it looked frightening.Nikita recovered from her shock and looked up at Nathaniel. The first thing she said was, "Why are you still here?"Nathaniel suppressed the impulse to open up Nikita's skull and look at her brain. He said exasperatedly, "Is this any time to ask about that? Send me to the hospital, you silly thing!"If he hadn't appeared in time, Nikita would have been disfi

Before Nikita could say anything, Nathaniel had pulled on his jacket and was pulling her downstairs.With a status like his, Nathaniel could have called a chef from a six-star hotel to deliver food to him. Anything would be better than what Nikita would make, whether in terms of its taste or appearance. However, he insisted on going to all the trouble.Nikita felt that he was torturing her on purpose and that it amused him when she was unhappy.However, since he had gotten stabbed for her, she would endure it for now!Nikita pushed the shopping cart while Nathaniel followed behind her at a leisurely pace. When he saw something that he wanted to eat, he would toss it into the cart. His every move made it clear that he was rich. It was the first time that Nikita had gone to a supermarket with Nathaniel. She had always wanted him to come with her, but he would scoff and ask why someone like him would go to a place like that. Karma was always a surprising thing. She had now been dra

"Nathaniel, why are you with her?"The two of them were both carrying the things they'd bought at the supermarket. They looked like an old married couple. Nathaniel glanced at Nikita and did not explain. Instead, he asked, "Why have you come here so late at night?"Regina suppressed her emotions and raised the thermos she was carrying. She said ingratiatingly, "I've been learning how to cook, and I made some chicken soup."Nikita was delighted. "Since you have food, you won't need me to cook. Let me."Before she could finish, Nathaniel opened the door and grabbed Nikita as he walked in. He said in a displeased tone, "Do you think I have no appetite? Do you think that two bowls of soup will fill me up?"Regina followed them in quickly and volunteered herself. "I can cook. I can make you food."Nathaniel placed the ingredients on the dinner table and glanced at the bag Regina was holding. He said gently, "It's alright. You should try to avoid heavy work like this. If you don't have

Nathaniel was extremely annoyed. He couldn't figure out why Nikita would give him the cold shoulder even though he had saved her.A call from Nathaniel had Dave heading to the bar to have some drinks together. Dave assumed that it was a gathering for friends, but when he arrived, he realized that he was the only one there.He had just taken his seat when he noticed the bandages on Nathaniel's arm. He asked in concern, "How did you get hurt?"Dave was the only relatively sensible person in Nathaniel's friend group, whom Nathaniel could have a sincere talk with at crucial moments. Nathaniel didn't withhold anything from Dave as he recounted how he suffered an injury for Nikita's sake.Dave was amused when he heard the whole story. "So you tried to save the maiden in distress, but in the end, you still couldn't win the maiden's heart."Nathaniel downed the glass of wine in his hand. Glancing at Dave, he said, "If you're just here to make fun of me, you can leave now.""Of course not

Nikita had just received the flowers when she received several messages on her phone. They were from an unfamiliar number."Did you get the flowers? Do you like them?"Nikita was speechless. She should've seen it coming. Only Nathaniel was capable of doing something like this.Nathaniel's actions were getting more and more difficult to understand. Either way, Nikita couldn't figure out what he was trying to do, so she wouldn't accept the flowers either.Under the envious gazes of the crowd, Nikita tossed the flowers into the janitor's huge trash can. Then, she took a photo of it and sent it to Nathaniel.After sending the photo, Nikita didn't receive any reply for a long while. Judging by Nathaniel's personality, he must be super pissed by now.But on the second day, she received another bouquet of flowers. This time, the flowers were pink baby's breaths.The message arrived along with the flowers. "What about baby's breaths? Not to your liking either?"Nikita was speechless. W

"Fine, I'll go with you. Happy now?"Nikita couldn't stand it anymore. It was just a dressing change, but Nathaniel just had to make it sound serious as if Nikita had owed him her life.Turning around, she said to Mason, "You should leave first. Take care."Mason was still worried. "He clearly has ulterior motives. I'm going with you."These men hated each other. Fearing that they might get into a fight if they were around each other, Nikita hastily declined."It's okay. I'll go home after I've watched him get his dressing changed. Just go home for now. Don't worry."Mason couldn't help but glance at Nathaniel. The latter gave him a challenging look in return. Clenching his fists tightly, Mason sighed as he said to Nikita, "Call me if anything happens.""Sure."Nikita got into Nathaniel's car and went to the hospital with him. The dressing change took less than 20 minutes.By the time Nathaniel was done, it was already beginning to snow outside. The ride Nikita had booked befo
