The prisoner of Mr. Xie

Part 39 - The Arrival of Laura

Nathan looked up at Davira, who was sleeping in her seat, and the woman seemed so exhausted that she fell asleep in the car. The long breath of the family from Nathan's mouth, he doesn't know if Davira trusts him or not.

Everything is too vague, he can't guess clearly what Davira really wants and what the woman really thinks.

"Why did Davira suddenly ask again about it? And why did Davira just hug me when I said that I wasn't the mastermind behind the slaughter of her family?" the question kept spinning inside Nathan's brain.

There are only two possibilities, the first is that Davira really believes him. And secondly, Davira is pretending to want revenge on him so that his attitude turns into submissive and softer.

Nathan rubbed Davira's head, there was a feeling of fear that now enveloped him. He hopes Davira really believes him, because it would be very painful if Davira took revenge after their relationship had gotten this close.

"I love you, Davira. I hope you believe me" Nathan murmured so quietly, he didn't want Davira to continue to suspect him of the massacre that night.

Drrtts.

Drrtts.

The phone in his suit pocket felt vibrating making Nathan immediately reach out to him, seen the name of one of his men listed on the screen of his phone.

"I already know who's behind Miss Davira's kidnapping."

Nathan was silent, not intending to speak for fear of disturbing Davira's sleep.

"For so long you know that we always slip our people to the enemy, don't you? So it turns out that telling Mr. Erick that Mr. Nathan is in Rome is one of our people."

Nathan immediately disconnected his phone, he pinched the base of his nose and then chuckled a little.

"It turns out father and mother" he murmured so sure.

It was highly unlikely that if their people were so bold as to give that information to Dante, there must be an order given to those people. Nathan knows how cunning his father and mother are, they are both a compatible couple.

Nathan looked at Davira's face fixedly, his blood boiling as he recalled what Dante had done to the woman. Nathan still can't get over it, Dante he's been retaliating. It seemed like now he had to avenge his mastermind.

Nathan will make his entire family feel slapped, he swears he will show Xie the great family, that Davira is his. He wants his entire family to know that Davira can't be bothered because he doesn't mess with the woman.

She doesn't care anymore, grandma, dad, or mom. It didn't matter to him if he had to fight the three of them, this was for his love for Davira, as well as the guilt for all the wrongs he had committed.

The car driven by Elio finally entered the mansion grounds and stopped when it reached the Garage. Elio opens the door for Nathan.

"Give Davira's groceries to Berta, let her put them in Davira's closet" Nathan gets out of the car with Davira already in his carrier.

"Good sir."

Nathan stepped into the elevator to the floor where his room and Davira's room were. Nathan took the woman into his room, he placed Davira very carefully on his bed.

She smiled faintly and then kissed Davira on the forehead, her feelings for the woman grew even greater. Nathan loves Davira, he loves her very much.

Just wanted to move, Nathan's hand was immediately choked by Davira making him frown.

"Why awake?" nathan asked quietly, but his voice still sounded cold and firm.

Davira just kept quiet and looked at him with a difficult gaze to understand, Nathan again sat on the edge of the bed.

"What's wrong?" Nathan rubbed the back of Davira's hand that held him.

Davira shook her head slowly then let out a long sigh and let go of her hand at Nathan. Davira lay sideways against Nathan and closed his eyes again, a few drops of clear liquid flowing from the corner of the woman's eye.

"Davira, what's going on?"

Nathan rubbed Davira's head, worried about the state of the woman.

"I was just sleepy" Davira replied, her voice sounding so hoarse and a little restrained.

"All right, I'm gonna take a shower. Keep sleeping, "Nathan kisses Davira's head and then removes the sandal from the woman's leg.

He smiled at Davira's feet that were still dirty with beach sand, today his feelings were really mixed by the woman.

Nathan immediately went inside the bathroom to clean his body, he stared at the reflection of his face in the mirror for a moment.

"It looks like my opponent this time is my own family, Davira. I'll get them to agree someday."

After finishing cleaning himself, Nathan came out using a towel wrapped around his waist. His burly body and six pack stomach were clearly visible.

Nathan was stunned to see Davira's body tremble, even the sound of sobs Davira was heard. Nathan immediately put on his boxer and climbed into the bed and hugged Davira's body.

The woman was aghast in shock, Davira immediately wiped her tears and closed them again. He didn't want Nathan to see him cry, even though he might have been found out by now.

"It's okay Davira, I know how you feel" whispered Nathan with a chest that felt tight as if being squeezed by something.

His hands tightly hugged Davira's body behind him, he buried his face in the recesses of the woman's neck, inhaling the scent of Davira's body that had long been an opiate for her.

Davira just kept quiet, he stared at Nathan's stocky hand that was perfectly coiled around his waist. Davira never felt like this. Everything became one, anger, suspicion, love and revenge, he felt all this at the same time.

Nathan succeeded, Davira admitted. The man had made him subjugated, he thought he had really fallen in love with the figure of Nathan who was so cruel.

But suspicion and anger still enveloped his heart, suppressing his feelings of love so much that he became ill alone.

The grudge is still there, not just gone. Now Davira is confused, between two choices that will both hurt her. His mind was trying hard to awaken his heart. And Davira seems to have to make a decision about what steps he should take for his life.

One of the two choices he had to take, and his chest became more and more claustrophobic when he thought about it.

The next day, Nathan woke up first from his sleep an hour ago. But he had just moved from the top of the bed because he kept looking at Davira's face from waking up. And it seems like the man has been content to do so.

Nathan picked up his phone that was on the nightstand. A few messages from Emma made him walk to the balcony of his room and call the woman.

No need to wait long, the call is now connected.

"I'm not mad at you at all, Emma. Take it easy, why worry about it?" Nathan was holding a guardrail that felt so cold.

"I just want you to know that Erick and I are still the same as they used to be, our relationship hasn't changed. Still friends."

"I know, I can see it. Why did he come to Rome? Is it really just because I want to see you?" the real question is already know what the main purpose of Erick, the man has even collaborated with Edgar to destroy it through Davira.

"His business, he wants to see me too. We haven't seen each other in a long time."

Nathan just smiled a little at Emma's reply.

"Nathan, can you accompany me today?"

"Sorry Emma, but this time I can't. I have to accompany Davira, she's been a little fragile lately. I can't leave him alone" Nathan replied so honestly, he didn't intend to look for any other reason.

"But just for a little while, as usual. You really can't? I saw Davira was fine yesterday."

"All right, Nathan."

"You can ask Erick to accompany you, he's not a good guy. But he won't hurt you, maybe even he can protect you more than me."

"Don't say that, Nathan. I won't go with him either, give my regards to Davira. I hope he gets better soon."

"Call me if anything happens, Emma."

After saying that, Nathan immediately disconnected his phone. Suddenly he felt someone's hand curling around his waist, hugging him from behind.

"Jonathan," Davira called out to make Nathan smile thinly, such a complete call that he had not heard from Davira's mouth for a very long time.

"Yes, princess?"

"So that's Emma? Is he going to come here?" ask Davira who did not listen to Nathan and Emma's conversation from the beginning.

"No, he's not going here today. He also sends greetings to you."

Davira smiled wryly and still stuck to Nathan's back, even his cheeks leaning against the man's bare back, feeling warm and also comfortable.

Nathan rubbed Davira's hand, "Why be spoiled like this hmm?"

"I? Pampered? I've never acted that way, Nathan. I can't be spoiled" Davira said, making Nathan laugh.

Nathan removed Davira's hand from his waist then turned to look at the woman's face.

"So you can't be spoiled?" nathan asked who immediately got the headband from Davira.

"That's a disgusting gesture" he replied, giving Nathan a chuckle.

"So this kind of attitude is not spoiled?"

Davira is stunned to see his hand that does not want to be separated from Nathan's waist, but instead of letting go after realizing it, Davira actually re-hugged Nathan's body and leaned on the chest of the man's field.

"Don't call me spoiled" Davira said, giving Nathan a chuckle.

The man kissed the top of Davira's head, showering Davira's head with his kiss.

"Of course my princess."

Nathan looked at Davira who had not finished his meal, the woman looked so relaxed and ate everything slowly regardless of Nathan who had finished his meal earlier.

But Nathan did not mind it, he felt happy when he had to wait for Davira like now. He could see Davira's face for longer.

"How can your body still be so good?" nathan asked in confusion, Davira's portion of food could not be said a little. But the woman's body did not grow, her waist was still very slender and her stomach was so flat. I don't know where all the food went.

Davira was stunned for a moment, "I just realized that it turned out that all this time I could not be fat, even though I was very rarely exercising and I ate a lot of food. Is...i'm a deworming?"

Nathan's laughter immediately broke hearing him, his hand moving ruffled Davira's hair making the master look at him unacceptable.

"I'll give you some worm medicine."

"No need! Let the worms eat the food in my stomach" Davira said, shaking Nathan's head.

"Sir, sorry to bother you," one of the servants suddenly came over.

"What's wrong?" nathan asked without taking his eyes off Davira.

"There's a woman in the living room, she claims to be your friend, so we let her in."

Nathan and Davira frowned, "You can go."

Nathan immediately stood up from his seat and rubbed Davira's head.

"Stay here and finish your meal" Nathan stepped out of the dining room.

The man walked up to the living room, his steps instantly changing even faster when he saw the existence of a woman he was so eager to finish off.

"What are you doing here? Want to give up your life?" Nathan immediately pushed Laura's body to a pinch, pressing the woman's chest with his arm.

"Akhc.......Nathan let me go" Laura grimaced in pain.

"I'm so desperate to kill you, Laura. What is it in your mind that you dare to appear before my eyes?" her question made Laura even more difficult to swallow her saliva.

"I-I'm sorry for that Nathan, I'm really sorry" said Laura with a face that had been flushed red because Nathan had begun to press firmly against her neck.

"Your apology has been refused, haven't I warned you in the first place? But with so much courage you complained to my mother. Now tell me what your purpose was to come here before I lost my temper, you know I can kill a woman" he whispered, widening Laura's eyes.

Davira just silently watched, he felt curious and finally caught up with Nathan. He was quite surprised to see the existence of Laura who was so brave to come here and go back to see Nathan after what happened.

"Akhc.....I-I came here to tell you that Mrs Gayatri is in Rome."

"Is he outside?"

"No, he's not coming here. Mrs Gayatri stayed in the apartment, and the lady told me to meet you."

Nathan moved his hand away from Laura's neck, the woman coughed with teary eyes.

"Mrs Gayatri asked you to come see her."

"He can call, why send you?"

"I don't know, I'm just obeying his orders. You know I can't resist it," Laura replied then hurriedly stepped her foot away from Nathan.

Laura only glanced at Davira at a glance, a glance filled with hatred and also vengeance. Davira just smiled a little in response.

Laura is seen coming out of the mansion, the woman seems to be terrified in case Nathan kills her.

"Have you finished eating?" nathan approached.

"Have you ever wanted to see your grandmother?"

Nathan nodded softly, "It looks like I have to meet him right now, go into your room and stay inside until I come. Understood?"

"Is there a problem?" ask Davira to be curious.

"There's a lot of problems and I'm going to sort it out" Nathan replied then pulling Davira's head and landing a kiss there.

Davira was stunned in place, staring at Nathan's back which slowly moved away from his sight. The corners of his lips were slightly attracted to form a very thin smile.
