Nancy crossed her arms beneath her breast and glowered at her ex-husband. “You are unbelievable!” she growled. “I am so glad that we aren’t married anymore. You are a real brute!”
As the couple quarreled, Clark squatted by the side of the pool and began to feed the dolphins. The dolphins were anxious to snatch the food out of the boy’s hands, and they somehow managed to drag him into the water.
Nancy saw what had happened right away, and she began to panic. She didn’t know what to do, so she took off her coat and prepared to jump into the pool. But then she remembered that she could not swim. Luckily, some of the people in the audience had seen what happened, and they began to call for help. Some of them even rushed towards the pool to save Clark.
The trainer who had been ki
Nancy’s heart beat fast as Clark explained how he’d accidentally hung up the phone earlier that day. What if it was important? - she’s worried. What was done was done, though, and she saw no point in punishing her son. “It doesn’t matter,” she said. “If it is important, they’ll call back. Now, let’s get your hair washed.” After the bath, Nancy helped her son get dressed, and then she handed him over to a servant. With that done, she went to find Crystal. At first, she could not find her friend, but that was only because she was playing hard to get. Crystal was hiding in one of the spare rooms, and she was playing with her mobile phone. After the long morning that they’d had, she was trying to keep some distance between herself and Eric.
Nathan’s breath was hot on Crystal’s face, and his breathing was more irregular than it had ever been in his life. His chest rose and fell in skips and jumps, like that of a horny teenager. He was out of control. His face was flushed, and he felt he had no choice other than to give in to his lust. As overwhelmed by his manliness as Crystal was, she still longed to push him away. She knew, though, that if she tried to get away from him, it would only turn him on more. So, she closed her eyes and went limp in his arms, hoping it would make him lose interest. But, unfortunately, her actions had the exact opposite effect on him. Her soft, boneless response nearly drove him to go crazy. Once Nathan had had his way with her, he finally stepped away. He had a cheeky grin on his face that was reminiscent of that of Little Jack Horner, and she could easily imagine him
When Crystal heard the news, she sat up straight and pushed herself off the couch. Nathan was taken aback for a moment, but as soon as he realized that she was about to leave, he scrambled to his feet to stop her. Before he knew what was happening, though, she had picked up a pair of scissors. “Stay back,” she warned. “What are you doing?” Nathan took a step forward but froze when she pressed the blades in deep enough to draw blood. “Don’t hurt yourself,” he cried. “Just tell me what the problem is. I’m sure that we can work it out together!” Crystal: “I need you to let me go and not come after me!” Nathan could tell that she meant what she said, so he stepped back. “I will let you go!” he said. “Just don’t hurt yourself...” He knew that if she left, he would never stop looking for her, but he was
Nancy looked Paul in the eyes and said, “Fine. If we cannot come to a compromise, I will go. I will mind my own business, and you will never see me again.” When Paul heard what Nancy said, he was confused. Clark had always been her weakness. “Do you think that you can treat my house as a hotel?” he asked. “You come and go as you please. Obviously, you don’t want to leave.” Nancy: “You don’t really believe that. Do you? Need I remind you that we are divorced?” Paul was speechless, and the room fell into an awkward silence. Finally, Crystal turned to Eric and said, “Eric, we need to talk. Is there somewhere we can go?” She was anxious to explain what Nathan had done to her. If he heard it from her first, she was confident that he would not blow it out of proportion.
“Are you here to get the towel?” Nancy asked. It was the only reason she could think of that would explain why Noah, the employee from Sea World, would be there. Noah laughed, and when he did, dimples appeared in his cheeks. He is a fucking hunk! - thought Nancy, and her face turned red. Noah helped her to her feet and said, “No, no. Don’t worry about the towel. Consider it a gift to your son. I am here because Miss Smith invited me here to be the best man at her wedding. Is there a problem?” Nancy: “No... I’m surprised, that's all... I thought she would have asked someone that she is more familiar with, like a family member or a friend. I’m sorry. I hope I haven’t offended you.” Noah: “No worries. I admit that this is h
As Noah slipped the ring on Nancy’s finger, he suddenly froze, and his face turned white. “What’s the matter?” implored Nancy. “You haven’t said yes yet, and already I’m putting a ring on your finger,” he muttered. “I’m sorry, that was presumptuous of me…” Nancy could see the disdainful look in Paul’s eyes, and it made her laugh. She thought - I did not realize that I held so much power over him. If I had known sooner, I might have done something with it... Oh, well. There’s no time like the present! With a giant grin on her face, Nancy touched Noah’s hand and said, “You are so silly. Of course, I will marry you.” “This is grea
Crystal took a step backward so that Eric could not reach her. She did not know why, but the thought of being intimate with him while Nathan was in the same country as they were in had her worried. She wished that Eric had not invited him to their wedding. Just the thought of his steely eyes on them as they said their vows had her in a panic. Nathan seemed to pop up wherever Crystal went, and his ability to know where she would be next scared her. She had thought that by escaping to the island, she would be free of him and Eric, and then she would be fully autonomous. But things were right back to the way they had been at the Beverly villa, or nearly so. Crystal took a deep breath. She hoped that after she married Eric, Nathan would give up, and things would settle down. She did not think it was probable, but it was not outside the realm of possibilities. Thu
Crystal waited for Nathan to reply, but he did not. She could hear him breathing on the other line, but he remained silent. What the fuck?!?! - thought Crystal. “What do you want?” she demanded for the second time. “I’m tired, and I don’t have the energy to put up with your bullshit!” “Don’t marry him,” Nathan finally replied. Crystal: “Why not? We are over. You had your chance, and you blew it!” Her words struck him like a sharp knife to the heart, and there was another long silence during which all she could hear was his heavy breathing. Once it became apparent that Nathan would not reply, Crystal said, “I am so happy that I left you. I don’t want to go back to the past. In fact, I have forgotten it. From now on,
Crystal looked at Mrs. Bush in a trance.“Amos Davis is…”Eric stood up and pressed the wound with a swab of alcohol.“Is Amos Davis Nathan’s father?” Crystal asked again.“Yes.” Eric looked down at her. “Are you surprised?”“So you and Nathan...”“You have a good imagination. We are not related.”“What about the child?”“Isn’t it obvious? The child’s death was the main cause of her nervous breakdown.” Eric held out his injured hand and said, “Honey, aren’t yo
At night, Crystal woke up sweating from her nightmare.The servant somehow slipped down on the carpet and fell asleep by the door.Crystal opened her eyes in tears. It was dark and still. She looked down at the overlapping lights, her heart aching as if she had been sliced open by razor blades.She tiptoed out of bed and picked up the phone from the bedside table.She walked barefoot into the bathroom, sat on the toilet, and stared at the black screen for a while.A week before, she had lost control of herself and seemed to have unconsciously dialed the number she had branded at her fingertips.But there came a female voice without feeling:
Eric looked at Crystal in shock.“You can rest assured that these small cuts will not affect the child’s physical health. And it won’t affect your revenge on Nathan!” Crystal said happily, her jaw suddenly strangled.Eric clutched her jaw tightly. “I thought you were a strong woman, but you’re just so vulnerable.”“That’s right. I’m vulnerable. Didn’t you know that?”That was why Eric asked the servant to put the blades away.Just now, it was also the servant who heard that Crystal was looking for the blade, so she rushed to find Eric immediately.Looking at the sweat on his forehead, the way he was out of bre
Inside the villa, doctors came in and out. Luckily, Eric sent Crystal into his car, and he gave her warm measures in time and kept her cold feet warm.“Miss Smith and the baby are fine. But Miss Smith was cold and somewhat weak. As for her feet, it’s taboo to touch cold water in this weather,” replied the doctor. “You’d better help her now, help her to activate her blood lest she might fall off rheumatism when she is older.Eric had Crystal’s feet rubbed by himself with the best essential oil.Crystal fell asleep in a daze. Her tears never stopped, as though she had dreamt of something sad.Her dry lips moved, calling someone’s name.Eric got close enough to hear her.
Crystal seemed to see Nathan staring at her with an angry face in her bewilderment.Her heart was beating wildly across her chest. She broke down and wanted to reach out and let him take her away.Suddenly, she didn’t want to take care of anything. She was not as strong as she thought.She just wanted a man who loved her, and she loved. She wanted to be cared for, have a child, and live a simple life. But the next second, the figure turned into Eric.He held down the handrail of the wooden bridge and jumped into the lake.Splash! Splash!Several bodyguards also jumped down one after another.Eric quickly walked over to her, took
Vic came in from the outside and was quite surprised to see this scene.He had expected Nathan’s return to make up with Crystal.Crystal was thrown into the bathroom, and her body crashed against the cold porcelain wall.Nathan hadn’t given up yet, even though she had made it so clearly.He picked up a birdbath and jabbed it into her hand. “Pee.”Crystal held the basin. “Do you want to check, and then you give up and let me go?”“Now!”He tugged at her trousers.Crystal went out today wearing suspenders, and Nathan took off her coat and stripp
Crystal pulled away from his hand hard and turned to leave.He instantly retrieved her body, and she hit him hard on the chest.Nathan held her tightly, his last icy line collapsed.“Don’t go. Don’t leave me.” He said.This man, who had just been proud and arrogant, was momentarily weak again.Crystal was not feeling any better, and her heart was trembling.“I miss you so much. I’ve been thinking about you, Crystal, every minute of the day. My life was dull and sad. I function every day, but I’m dying inside,” His voice, with the hot air, blew in her ear.Crystal felt as
A man was sitting with his legs crossing on the dark blue leather sofa, silent and noble in the living room.Crystal stood at the door, only by seeing him at a glance did she want to run away. However, her feet were like a tree with deep roots, so steady and heavy that she could not move it a little.Every night, the man she saw in her dream was now sitting in front of her. The man put out the cigarette and said casually, “Miss Smith, here you are.”The voice was like thunder, which immediately woke Crystal up.She jerked around to leave…“Miss Smith, don’t you want your watch back?” Nathan’s cold voice sounded again.It’s him!
“More than 20 years?” Nancy didn’t understand. “That is to say, I’ve been waiting to meet you since I was born,” he gave Nancy a charming smile, “You’re in a cold sweat, am I so horrible?” Nancy shook her head, “No...” “I don’t want to be someone you’re afraid of,” he kissed on the back of Nancy’s hand, “I just want to be a big tree, to provide shade and shelter for you.” Nancy lowered her head in a panic, dared not look at him. That’s so unreal, and such dreamlike happiness would catch everyone unprepared, especially someone a boy crazy like Nancy. Marcos was like a noble prince; no woman could resist his charm and tenderness.
