The lights in the living room were switched off. The place was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. However, there was an overwhelming pressure emanating from the room. 


Christina jumped in shock when she saw the tall figure seated on the couch. “Why didn’t you turn on the lights?” 


She immediately noticed Nathaniel’s angry expression when the lights were switched on. There was a murderous look in his eyes. It looked like he was a predator in the mountains waiting to attack.

Nathaniel’s aura was terrifying, causing Christina to break out in a cold sweat. 


He stood up and made his way toward her. “Is it your job to accompany Francis?”
