Chapter 394 We Are Incompatible

Nathael forcefully wedged himself between her legs, causing Maggie to tremble uncontrollably.

In the struggle, Maggie’s hand ended up smacking his face by mistake.

With a crisp sound echoing in the room, both of them froze in their actions.

Maggie stared at him blankly with the corners of her eyes tinged red. In the faint light, she could see a blood mark scratched across his cheek by her hand.

Maggie was startled for a moment, feeling even more uneasy.

With no turning back, she hesitated for a moment, her eyelashes quivering as she steeled herself.

Avoiding Nathael’s gaze, she turned her head aside, her breath shaky as she murmured, “Just calm down.”

Nathael’s gaze darkened, and he managed to utter a few words through clenched teeth, “Maggie!”

Maggie’s heart fluttered lightly, unable to shake off the unease.

This side of Nathael felt unfamiliar, just like the lunatic he had become in her past life after her death.

Nathael wasted no time, swiftly grabbing a tie from the wardrobe drawer before Maggie could react,

“What are you up to?”

Maggie was taken aback for a few seconds, then struggled to rise, but Nathael’s strong hands pinned her wrists above her head, tying them there.

Maggie’s eyes flared with a mix of anger and fear.

Even though she trusted he wouldn’t harm her, she couldn’t shake off the strange feeling of embarrassment, causing her cheeks to flush and her whole body to heat up.

“Nathael, let me go!” Maggie struggled fiercely, her voice catching with emotion. The tie bit into her wrists, leaving two red marks on her delicate skin.

Nathael seemed to calm down now, his previous anger and coldness fading Maggie’s fear, her heart racing with unease and panic.
