Chapter 137

Nathan frowned. “Did Samuel tell you that?”

He had immediately guessed it.

“It doesn’t matter who told me. Just tell me if it’s true.”

“Yes.”

Nathan’s reply was swift.

It turned out that it was his first date. No wonder he had been so angry.

Presently, he said, “Since I’ve answered yes, are you willing to nod and continue to be a replacement for half a year?”

Trembling, Caroline asked, “Why me?”

Nathan looked down at her and pinched her small face. As soon as the scar was

removed, her beauty came into view.

He pinched her face and looked at her. “I have a crush on you, okay?”

“Did he just say that he has a crush on me?” Caroline thought.

Her face heated up as Caroline couldn’t stand his mature gaze. “Did you fall in love with my face?”

She broke free from his hold, turned her face away, and buried her face in a snow- white pillow.

Looking down at her ebony hair, red l*ps, and innocent face, Nathan cleared his throat and pinched her face with his large hand.

He never denied that he liked her face. He had seen it for a while, but he couldn’t get tired of it. He felt moved whenever he saw it.

He had no idea what other men were like. Regardless, he loved her very much.

“What do you want me to say? Doesn’t all love start with appearance? You are my type, so I fell for you at first sight. Is there something wrong with that? Or would you prefer to develop feelings for another after a long time? To put it simply, falling for someone, in the long run, is something that will eventually happen. If you did not catch my attention, to begin with, there would be no chance of developing feelings for each

other.

Nathan was a picky man, especially when it came to women. He was not one who would

fall for women at first sight. Hence, the chance of developing feelings for another after at long time had been low.

Caroline felt her b*dy go soft as she thought about how fervent Nathan was.

“Caroline, let me ask you again. Do you want to come with me?”

Caroline closed her eyes. She did not know where he put the emerald. Only by following him could she have the chance to find the emerald eventually.

She decided to follow him for the sake of emerald.

Caroline replied, “Yes!”

She nodded.

Nathan’s thin l*ps quirked as he laughed in a low voice.

After k*ssing her red l*ps, he changed the topic, “If my mother gets sick again, call me. My mother has a me ntal illness. I’m afraid she will hurt

you.”

“What happened? Of course, you don’t have to say anything you don’t want to,” Caroline added quickly. She did not want to inquire about others’ privacy.

“My mom was harmed by her brother-in-law when she was young, and I was there that night… The sisters were very close. Because Granny passed away early, the eldest sister was like a mother. They never allowed anyone to bully their sister, so after that incident, the sisters broke up. My mother always thought she was a sinner and tried to harm herself several times. She tried every means to abort me when she found out that she was pregnant, but she was locked up and forced to give birth. My mother’s me ntal state. is getting worse and worse, and she is becoming crazier. When I was older, I took her away from the Faraday manor and went abroad. Over there, her condition began to stabilize, but she mustn’t be stimulated. Once stimulated, she would still get sick. My mother will hurt herself when she gets sick. I hope that you’ll prepare yourself me tally now that you know my mother’s problem. If my mother gets sick, you should stay away from her and call me, so that she can’t hurt you.”

He said these words in a very calm voice, without any emotional fluctuations. It was as if he was telling another person’s story.

Caroline looked at him as he held her arms and looked at her. Soon, he smiled. “Why aren’t you speaking? Are you scared?”
