All Chapters of Crying Her a River: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

"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

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 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

"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

Nathaniel looked down at Nikita and said in a low voice, "I can pay you."Nikita was exasperated. Did he think this was a hotel? Did he think he could stay here as long as he paid her?"I don't want your money!" Nikita said furiously, "If you have money, go book a room in a hotel. I'm sure it's much more comfortable than my place.""It's too cold outside. I don't want to go out."With that, Nathaniel reached out, grabbed Nikita's shoulder, and pushed her inside. Nikita staggered a few steps backward. Hugging her waist, he matched her pace as he successfully entered the room.Before Nikita realized what was going on, Nathaniel had already walked into the bathroom.Nikita widened her eyes in disbelief. She had never seen such a shameless man before. She reached out and tugged at the door handle, but she soon realized that it was locked from inside."Nathaniel! Come out right now!"The only response she received was the sound of running water.Nikita felt the veins on her forehea
