Chapter 667
The bathroom door was forcefully smashed open, and Nathaniel rushed in, swiftly grabbing hold of
Anya, who was clinging to the cubicle door.
Due to the forceful pull, deep gashes were left on Anya’s neck and chin from being dragged off the
door.
Nathaniel flung her aside in one smooth motion, causing Anya to crash into the wall. Blood instantly
began streaming from the back of her head.
Without even sparing a nce at Anya, Nathaniel urgently knocked on thepartment door, saying,
“Christina, it’s me. Open the door.”
Stumbling, Christina quickly stood up and almost lunged at the door, trembling as she opened it and
rushed into Nathaniel’s arms.
Nathaniel held her tightly, and his aura of hostility dissipated, reced by gentle reassurance. He softly
comforted her, saying, “It’s okay. It’s over now
With a tight grip on his shirt, Christina choked on her words, unable to form aplete sentence. “N-
Nathaniel, my stomach… hurts…
Nathaniel’s expression turned serious. “I’ll take you to the hospital right away.”
He lifted Christina in his arms, disregarding Anya, and swiftly rushed out of the bathroom.
The car sped toward the hospital, where doctors and nurses were already waiting at the entrance,
ready to
assist
At that moment, Christina’s face was ghastly pale, and the intense pain in her abdomen caused her to
gradually lose consciousness.
“Save her!” Nathaniel grabbed a doctor and urgently eximed, “If you can only save one of them,
make sture you save her!”

The doctor swiftly withdrew his hand, maintaining aposed demeanor. “Mr. Hadley, we’ll do
everything we can. Please try to remain calm and await the results patiently.”
With those words, he joined the medical team, swiftly disappearing into the emergency room.
Nathaniel’s white shirt was now tainted with the vivid red of blood. He sat forlornly on a bench outside
the emergency room, seemingly undisturbed by the disarray of his
appearance.
Sebastian rushed to the scene upon hearing the news, and for a moment, he struggled to recognize
the disheveled man seated in the corridor.
“Mr. Hadley, are you all right? Did you sustain any injuries?” As Sebastian stared at the horrifying patch
of blood staining Nathaniel’s clothes, his heart skipped a beat in shock
“It’s not my blood.” Nathaniel lifted his head to look at Sebastian with a deadpan expression. “Where’s
Anya?”
“She was gone when I arrived at the restaurant. I’ve sent people to search for her. Given the severity of
her actions, it’s likely that Anya is in hiding. It’ll take some time to locate her. Mr. Hadley, please give
me a little more time.”
Nathaniel’s gaze turned fierce. “Sebastian, you’re well aware of my impatience. I don’t care about the
methods you employ, but you must bring Anya to me, whether she’s alive or dead. You hear me?”
“Got it, Mr. Hadley,” Sebastian replied. After a moment’s hesitation, he added, “But things may be
complicated if she seeks help from Old Mr. Stone.”
Nathaniel sneered, “Barnaby knows what matters most. Unless he wants to offend the entire Stone
family. Sheridan will never allow Barnaby to create trouble for himself over an outsider who only causes
nothing but trouble”
“Mr. Hadley, I’ll attend to my tasks now. Do you want me to assign a few people to be on standby for
you?” Sebastian expressed his concern for Nathaniel’s mental state. He wanted to ensure that there
would be someone to restrain his boss if anything went wrong in the emergency room.
“No need, Nathaniel replied in a deep voice. “Take Lyle with you. He excels at tracking people down.”
Sebastian hummed in response and left to carry out his order.
Meanwhile, Anya, who had managed to escape from the restaurant, crossed paths with Macy, who was
searching for her.
“Anya, where did you go? I’ve been searching everywhere for you. I thought someone had kidnapped.
you!” Macy shrieked upon seeing Anya’s bloodied face, My goodness, you’re bleeding so much! Who
did that to you?”
Anya frantically dragged Macy to a secluded corner. “Mom, don’t ask me questions now. Get a car here
quickly. We need to leave this ce as soon as possible.”
Macy did not fully grasp Anya’s meaning. “All right. I’ll take you to the hospital.”
Anya yelled, “No, we’re not going to the hospital! We’re heading straight to the airport. I can’t stay in
this city any longer. If I do, I’ll be dead. I’ll be dead, I swear!”
She burst into tears, her entire body trembling.
Macy stood frozen, taken aback by her daughter’s words. “Anya, exin yourself clearly. Who wants to
kill you? What happened while you were away just now?”
Earlier today, Macy had apanied Anya to see a psychiatrist. However, during the brief moment
when Macy entered a store to buy water, Anya vanished without a trace.
Although she had finally located Anya, it was evident that Anya’s mental state had further deteriorated.
Anya’s frantic gaze scanned the surroundings, her eyes darting in all directions. Witnessing her
distraught state, Macy could not hold back her tears any longer. “Let’s go. Let’s not see the psychiatrist
anymore. We’ll head to the Specker residence to seek your grandad’s help!”
