Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

Chapter 1655 - 173: It Was My Mistakes

Crystal laughed as she scooped the bottle of Morning After Pills out of Elma's hand. She snorted and said, "Obviously, I'm not going to change my mind!" Then she grabbed the bottle, took out a pill, and dry swallowed it. Once the drug was down her throat, she tried to slip the bottle into her picket, but Elma stopped her by snatching it out of her hands.

"I'll keep the remaining pills!" Elma hissed.

"Who knows what kind of trouble you might get up to with them…."

Crystal sighed and said, "If I really wanted to play tricks, do you think I would need these pills?"

Elma frowned and said, "Fine. I don't take these anymore, anyway. They are not good for my body." She chuckled. "After the baby comes, I am looking forward to seeing who your young master will choose to be with."

"You are a real bitch!" Crystal growled. Her finger longed to slap the nanny.

Elma: "Whatever, slut!"

Crystal clenched and unclenched her fists at her side, and she was about to say something nasty, but then she realized that Nathan was watching them. Her face went white, and she wondered - How long has he been there? He was standing on the stairs with one hand on the wooden handrails. "Vic!" he shouted. "Bring the pills to me."

Vic had been in the living room, and he grabbed the pill bottle out of Elma's hand and tossed it to Nathan.

"What are you going to do?" Crystal asked. Nathan glared at Crystal but said nothing. Instead, he emptied the bottle into his left hand. Then he crushed them in his fingers one by one and dumped the debris on the ground. He could not believe that his love had gone behind his back in the hopes of murdering their potential child.

Had Elma's furtive behavior not been seen by Vic, and had Vic not followed her to the drugstore, Nathan would have probably never known how much Crystal did not want to have his baby. He looked at Crystal and said, "I've told you what the punishment would be for anyone who gave you pills, didn't l?"

At that moment, Nathan looked like a devil, and Crystal had a hard time believing that he was the same person she lived with and made love to. It's just a pill - she thought desperately - And I only took it because I'm not ready to have a baby yet....

Elma was so frightened by Nathan's hostility and wrath that she was trembling with fear, and she hurriedly knelt and began to beg him for mercy. "Young Master," she cried. "This is none of my business. Miss Smith ordered me to buy them. She said that she didn't want to have a baby..."

Nathan: "She ordered you to buy them! So what? Would you follow any order she gave you? If she ordered you to kill a person, would you do as you were told?"

"It was wrong of me," Elma wailed. "Young master, please give me another chance..."

Helen had been sleeping while this had been going on, but the noise Elma was making finally roused her. She got up quickly and rushed out to see what was going on. Then, when she saw Elma on the floor, wailing, her heart nearly broke. She staggered over to Elma, and when she saw the bottle of Birth Control Pills, she understood everything. She looked up to Nathan and said, "Tribute!"

Nathan's eyebrows were raised. "What are you talking about?" he asked.

"It's from Hunger Games," Helen explained.

"It means that I will take her place. Whatever punishment you had intended for her will be mine."

Elma held Helen and said, "Miss, don't. You are pregnant. I did the deed. I should bear the punishment."

Nathan turned to Elma and said, "Fine. So be it. Go, kneel at the door, and stay there until this time tomorrow. I think that will teach you a lesson you'll remember."

Helen: "No, Nathan. Elma has bad knees.

Kneeling for so long will kill her... I beg you, please, please spare her..."

Nathan shrugged and said, "No way!" Then he turned to Crystal. "You're next. How do you think I should punish you?"

Crystal could not help but tremble with fear. She knew that she had crossed a line with him and that he was really angry with her. She shook her head and seized her hemline. "It's me that asked her to buy the pills for me..." she said.

Nathan: "You've never taken what I said to heart, have you? No matter who buys the pills for you, even if that person is me, they will have to be punished."

Crystal closed her eyes and said, "I see."

Nathan was so furious that he felt like his head was going to explode. He rubbed his temples with his fingers and looked straight at Crystal. "Go," he whispered. "To our bedroom. Climb into bed and wait for me. You should know what to do once you get there."

Crystal frowned. She was seldom obedient, but she did not dare to disobey him or provoke him at this time. If she did, she knew that it could only make things worse than they already were.

Crystal bowed her head, and as she went up the stairs, she wasn't surprised that Nathan was following her. Once they were in the room, he pressed her up against the wall with one hand and gripped her wet core with the other.

Crystal squealed, and Nathan grinned. "The Morning After Pill works for 24 hours," he said. "So, you don't need to worry about getting pregnant. I'm sure that will make you happy! And now, we can do this all night! Again!"

"Why are you doing this?" Crystal wailed.

"I don't know," Nathan growled. "Why are you such a liar? One minute you told me that you wanted to have my baby, and the next, you're trying to kill it!" He slapped her face and asked her if it hurt.

"I didn't mean it," Crystal cried. "It was a mistake!"

"Almost every murderer says that he didn't kill people on purpose once they've been caught. That's pretty convenient, don't you think?" Nathan pinched her chin and said, "I hate cheaters the most. You know that!"

"When did I ever cheat on you?" asked Crystal. "Are you asking me that because you are afraid...?"

When Nathan heard her question, his face turned white.
