Diana’s pov
Nathan’s behavior completely irritated me.
I rarely got so angry.
But perhaps because everything that happened during the day challenged my sanity and stimulated my nerves, I gradually lost control of the raging anger inside.
“Damn Nathan, it would be too late when you regret!”
I cursed in a low voice and couldn’t concentrate on my work anymore.
I took out an unopened bottle of red wine from the refrigerator, roughly pried open the cork, and then took a few wild sips.
The office prepared for the director was always comfortable.
But due to the alcohol, I still felt heat and thirst.
After releasing the few buttons that bound my neck, I got up and went to the balcony.
The late night wind carried a coolness and was comfortable.
I almost forgot about everything unpleasant just now, if I hadn’t seen Nathan on the next balcony the moment I turned around.
He should have just taken a shower, his hair still wet, and only a towel wrapped around his waist.
It seemed that he noticed the noise, turned his head towards me, and then a casual curve rose from the corner of his mouth.
My fingers clenched slightly as I gripped the bottle.
If I stayed in the hospital until morning to work overtime, what was this damn guy doing?
To make me more irritable and angry?
My alcohol tolerance was not good, but those few sips were far from making me lose
my sanity.
At least until I saw Nathan, I was clear–headed.
But now, when I realized it, I had already dropped the wine bottle and jumped onto the next balcony, standing face to face with Nathan.
Nathan raised his eyebrows in surprise, and then a playful light flashed in his eyes. “You –”
He seemed to want to say something, but I didn’t want to hear his voice at all.
Or in other words, what I would rather hear was his screams.
So, just as he spoke, my fist had already swung out.
Damn it!
This was the end of your foolish attempt to blackmail me!

My reason was no longer working and my behavior was completely controlled by the
anger in my subconscious.
Nathan probably didn’t expect me to hit him suddenly, so he couldn’t dodge and was hit on the nose.
He snorted and took two steps back.
When he looked up at me again, the banter in his eyes had already receded by half.
“Are you drunk?” He asked, with a hint of embarrassment in his voice.
I curled up the corner of my mouth and gave a cold smile.
I didn’t answer his question, but instead punched his right cheek again.
But this time, he was clearly on guard and dodged my attack
“Diana!” He grabbed my arm.
I shook it off hard and hit his chest with my elbow!
No surprise, he dodged it again.
After a few rounds, apart from his nose, I didn’t even hurt him any more.
I stopped and looked at him panting, as if there was a fire burning in my heart.
Nathan frowned at me and asked, “Are you calm now?”
I still didn’t answer.
Seeing this, Nathan walked towards me.
“What are you do–?”
Almost as Nathan took off his guard and approached me, I grabbed the towel from his waist and pulled it hard, throwing it directly out of the balcony.
Nathan widened his eyes and instinctively reached out to grab it.
I smiled, seized the opportunity, and mercilessly punched him in the stomach.
“Uh!” Nathan covered his stomach and retreated, his facial features twisted with pain, and clear blue veins appeared on his forehead.
I finally heard the voice I wanted to hear, and my mood immediately brightened up a
lot.
I lifted my leg and kicked him between his legs!
I wanted this guy to experience extreme pain!
However, to my surprise, Nathan grabbed my ankle and stopped my attack.
“Are you crazy?” He growled softly.
I glared at him angrily, trying to break free from his grip.
Nathan grabbed my ankle and pulled back hard.
I suddenly lost balance and my feet slipped and leaned back.
I exclaimed in surprise and instinctively closed my eyes.
Just as I thought I was about to fall heavily to the ground, a powerful arm held me
on the waist steadily
A heavy breath came to my ears
I tentatively opened my eyes and met Nathan’s amber pupils.
Although I disliked Nathan, I had to admit that he had a perfect face that everyone.
envies
Sometimes I even felt that three years ago, I fell in love with him at first sight, not only because of Mate, but also partly because he was the most beautiful man I have ever seen in my life.
A drop of water dripped down Nathan’s hair on my ear, and the coldness made me conscious
I pushed Nathan away and took a few steps back to avoid getting too close to him.
After a brief silence, Nathan spoke first.
“So, can you tell me now what the hell you’re doing?”
“Why did you –?”
I almost blurted out, “Why did you blacklist me?‘. Suddenly, I realized that I was Diana at the moment, not Healer. So I could only forcefully shift the conversation.
“Why are you in my hospital?”
Nathan didn’t answer my question, but walked expressionlessly to the chair, took the bathrobe draped over it, and calmly put it on.
I realized later that he was completely naked at the moment and looked away awkwardly.
“Isn’t it a bit late to be shy? Weren’t you aggressive when you pulled my clothes?”
“I’m not shy!” I immediately retorted, whispering, “I haven seen it before.”
“So why don’t you dare to look at me?”
“I…” I hesitated for a few seconds, then suddenly remembered something and looked up at him without hesitation. “You haven’t answered my question. Why are you at my hospital?”
“To accompany Avia.” Nathan dropped this sentence and sat on the sofa. “Avia has already been hospitalized. I will stay in the hospital until she recovers.”
“What?”
I suddenly turned up my volume.
If Nathan lived in my hospital, I would have to see him every day!
What a nightmare!
Nathan raised his eyebrows when he saw my bewildered face and said, “What? Are you happy to hear that I’ll stay here?”
“Don’t f**king flatter yourself.” I rolled my eyes.
I really didn’t want to stay in the same place with him, so I asked, “You’re an alpha. What about those jobs in your pack?”
“My Beta will help me handle most of them. If he can’t, he will come and ask me.‘
“Ah.” I chuckled, “I didn’t expect you to do so much for Avia. No wonder you were looking for a substitute for Avia everywhere.”
Nathan frowned slightly, but didn’t say anything more. Instead, he asked, “So you went crazy to beat me because I live next door to you?”
“Hmm…” I didn’t want to explain too much. I changed the topic and asked, “Do you really want Claud to treat Avia?”
“Why not?”
“So, do you really think there was a problem with Healer’s surgery?”
“I don’t want to doubt her,” Nathan’s expression became more serious, “but Avia’s performance told me that she hasn’t recovered.”
“You trusting Avia too much,” I said coldly.
“Avia is very important to me. I won’t doubt her, nor will I allow myself to doubt her.”
I didn’t understand what Nathan meant by ‘not allowed‘, but his blind trust in Avia made me feel ridiculous.
I didn’t even bother to talk to him again.
But as a responsible director, I still advised, “I suggest you find a few more trusted doctors to check Avia carefully. There won’t be any loss.”
However, Nathan refused my proposal without even thinking about it.
“No need.” He said. “Avia’s can no longer withstand any stimulation. I don’t want to take this risk.”
I was silent and didn’t know what to say.
“Forget it,” I whispered a moment later.
I was probably crazy. I even thought that I had the ability to persuade him.
I turned around and walked towards my balcony.
“Diana!”
Nathan shouted behind me in a somewhat urgent voice.
I turned my head to look at him.
He had already stood up from the sofa, with a hint of reluctance in his eyes.
“What is he reluctant about?
I didn’t delve into it, but found it ridiculous.
I crossed the balcony.
After returning to the room, I hastily tidied up the broken wine bottle and went to bed.
The next day, I got up late due to staying up late the night before.
Obviously, I missed breakfast in the hospital canteen.
Just as I was about to buy a loaf of bread, Victor brought me a delicate breakfast.
“I knew you wouldn’t get up,” Victor put the breakfast on my desk.
“Hmm?” I cast a puzzled look at him.
Victor, as if he hadn’t seen it, asked, “How was that Avia?”
I shook my head and said, “Nathan doesn’t want Avia to take the risk of checking again. I guess we’ll have to think of another way.”
Noticing my exhaustion, Victor didn’t continue to mention any topics related to Nathan and Avia. Instead, he asked, “There’s a car race in the Galactic Center tomorrow night. Do you want to go?”
I was suddenly ignited with enthusiasm.
“Yes! Of course I have to go.”
I haven’t touched a racing car for a long time, let alone participated in a race.
To be honest, I really missed the feeling of recklessly stepping on the gas.
