Chapter 1804 The Master
No hunter would allow himself to tremble in fear before his prey.
The first to fall in love had no choice but to surrender his heart and all.
Suddenly, Nathaniel threw me back onto the sofa. He seemed chagrined as he turned and refused to
look at me. I felt pressured by his lurking presence. However, he said nothing, and I did not know what
was going on in his mind.
There was no reason to discipline someone else. However, when there was an exception, that
relationship was destined to be different.
Nathaniel seemed fine to be addressed as a disgusting rat, so Jackson was right. He had placed himself
in a lower position than me. Perhaps he was coddling me. No matter what, I should add fuel to the fire
now.
I slumped onto the sofa and twisted my body to show a few seductive poses. In a low voice, I mumbled,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Either you take my life, or you’ll have to endure similar scenes in the future. I want you to see how much
I love Ashton. It could’ve been yours, but you rejected it.” Chuckling, I raised my voice to make sure he
could hear each and every word clearly. “You were the one who avoided me and gave up!”
Nathaniel turned at his shoulder as though he had just heard a ridiculous joke. “I gave up? Does that
mean you’re the one who decides whether I will get to love you? Am I a charity case?”
Charity case was a rather degrading term, and it wasn’t what I meant. Alas, I had no choice but to go on.
“I said nothing of the sort, but I wanted to treat you and Ashton fairly. You were the one who hid away
from me. You know I love him dearly, so I couldn’t control myself.”
After all, the more intimate one was with someone, the better one would be at coming up with hurtful
sentences.
Though it might be my own wishful thinking, besides Nora, I should be the only person of the opposite
sex that Nathaniel had spent the most time with. I knew him better than anyone, so it was pretty easy for
me to deliver a fatal blow to him.
Indeed, Nathaniel was infuriated. He grabbed my hands swiftly when I tried to struggle and flipped me
over.
Pressing his cheek next to mine, he warned, “You’d better know who your master is!”
Flustered, I went all out. “I’d rather end myself than let you succeed!”
Nathaniel was unfazed, for he continued unbuttoning his shirt as though he were a robot carrying out an
order. “You want to treat us fairly, right? If we don’t have a try, how would you find out whether your body
prefers me or Ashton more?”
I didn’t expect someone as arrogant as Nathaniel would be foolish enough to connect one’s body and
heart together. He thought that conquering either would get him the other one.
I sneered, raised my chin, and prepared to end myself by biting on my tongue hard. I wanted to show
him how stubborn I was. He could never win my heart or mess around with my body.
Nathaniel hadn’t realized my plan. He couldn’t wait to vent his lust, so after unbuttoning his shirt, he
reached out to me.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI was wearing a long dress with buttons all the way up to my neck. It had as many buttons as his shirt. I
saw Nathaniel frowning in irritation as he stretched his hand out.
At that, I laughed gaily. Nathaniel grabbed my collar, an ominous black thundercloud of temper settling
over him.
Rip!
I was both embarrassed and furious. Without thinking much, I bit my tongue. Hopefully, our ancestors
weren’t lying when they claimed one would die when one’s tongue broke off. I didn’t want to end up as
helpless as a flapping fish and regain consciousness to face the humiliating situation.
As sweat trickled down my forehead from the excruciating pain, I belatedly realized Nathaniel had
stopped his advances.
At once, I stopped biting on my tongue and opened my eyes.
Nathaniel was still towering over me. However, he had narrowed his gaze and was staring at my left
shoulder, seemingly in a daze.
