Chapter 132

Diana’s pov

In a fleeting moment, I was almost bewitched by Nathan.

His gentle tone and affectionate look seemed to adore me as if deeply in love. Yet, compared to that, the pain and sorrow he gave me were evidently more. So soon, my sanity, which was on the verge of collapsing, regrouped.

I stared at him coldly, articulating each word, “Get out!”

The tenderness gradually faded from Nathan’s face…

In the dim room, I couldn’t see his expression clearly.

But I could sense the decreasing atmospheric pressure, giving me an idea of his current demeanor.

The pressure on my wrist increased, and I felt a subtle pain.

Nathan gritted his teeth and questioned, “Why? Why can he, and I can’t?”

“He“? Nathan had been emphasizing this mysterious “he” since earlier.

Who is this “he“?

In a daze, I recalled a little incident today when the nurse came in to give me an infusion.

Before she walked in, I was applying medicine to Moss.

From the perspective of someone at the door, it did look like we were kissing.

The nurse mentioned Nathan’s dark and terrifying expression when he turned away… Did he see it and misunderstand?

My heart pounded.

But why?

Isn’t Avia the one he likes?

Why would he be jealous because of a misunderstanding about Moss kissing me?

In my confusion, Nathan grasped my chin.

Refusing to yield, he forcefully made me open my mouth.

As his kiss landed, the bitter taste of alcohol filled my mouth.

During the exchange of breath, he murmured something that I couldn’t quite catch.

All I heard was a faint shout of “Avia.”

Suddenly, it dawned on me.

What misunderstanding or jealousy is there?

Nathan was clearly drunk and recognized the wrong person!

I should have realized this sooner, but his overpowering scent and the tense atmosphere had deceived me.

It wasn’t until he pried open my mouth that I discovered it was all a mistake fueled by alcohol!

My stomach suddenly convulsed, the first time in my life, feeling a real disgust at Nathan’s touch.
