100 Days to Seduce the Devil

Chapter 615 Forget Everything Only Today

Day Seventy…

~~*****~~

After securing Jane's and Ethan's safety, Nathan decided not to chase after the members of King Stallion who just fled to escape. His priority was to bring Jane back to the hospital for her check-up. She just woke up yet she fought those men. What if she would suddenly collapse again?

Furthermore, he was worried about her health. The doctor diagnosed that she had a brain tumor. Could it be that she was in pain and suffering physically because of her illness? But unknown to him, Jane would never experience pain from a brain tumor because that illness was created only by Bam-Bam, faking her examination result.

"Let's go back to the hospital," Nate uttered, holding Jane's shoulders to support her. He was surprisingly gentle towards her. "Are you hurt anywhere?" he asked her, his eyes scanning her from head to toe.

Ethan and Jane looked at him with their unblinking eyes, flabbergasted by Nathan's thoughtful behavior toward Jane. The little boy tried to conceal his smile as he darted his gaze back and forth between his father and Jane. He rejoiced inwardly, seeing Nathan's concern for Jane.

On the other hand, Jane remained quiet, just staring at Nathan skeptically. She wasn't used to being treated by him kindly. 'Why is he being considerate of me now? Is it because I'm dying from a terminal illness?' Jane snorted at that thought.

"I don't want to go to the hospital," Jane stubbornly stated. "I wanna go home and rest."

"Gramps and Miss Abi thought you went on a business trip abroad. You can't show up to the house at this hour. Just go home with us… Miss Jane," Ethan grabbed her hand, giving her a pleading look. He was hoping that Jane would agree to his suggestion.

"Master, aside from Nathan, Stephen, and Cherry, your family didn't know you'd been in a coma for one week. So Ethan and Nathan made them believe that you went abroad. It is best for you to stay with them," Bam-Bam supported Ethan's idea. But Jane had no idea that Bam-Bam and Ethan had been interacting for a while now.

Jane could only sigh in defeat. "Okay."

Nathan would like to insist on going to the hospital, however, he changed his mind after seeing Jane's tired expression. 'I'll let her rest for a while. She is safe in the Sparks Mansion. Members of King Stallion won't dare set foot in my place.'

Nathan guided both Jane and Ethan to his car. Just when he was about to start his car, his backup arrived. Violet led the group. They escorted them back to the Sparks Mansion.

When they reached the mansion, Butler Li was the one who welcomed them. He didn't expect to see a visitor at this hour. It was already 2:00 in the morning. He fixed his gaze on Jane, trying to scan his memory where and when he saw this familiar face.

"Butler Li, prepare the guest room," Nathan ordered him, interrupting his thoughts.

"Understood, Master." Butler Li promptly responded, still stealing a glance at Jane.

Jane just smiled at him. It's been so long since the last time she saw this butler. Butler Li had once become her accomplice and errand guy. She had forgotten that Butler Li would never recognize her. Her soul was in Abigail's body when she started to interact with Butler Li.

The butler was puzzled and caught off guard after seeing Jane's meaningful smile. He didn't know why he felt some familiar vibe from her, however, he didn't recognize her at all.

Still confused, Butler Li turned around and left to prepare the guest room for Jane.

"Mom… I mean Miss Jane. Let's go to my room first while waiting for your room to be fixed. You can rest there." Ethan grabbed her hand and gently pulled her toward his room.

Nathan could only watch the two figures walking away from his spot. He sighed helplessly before heading to his study room. He immediately contacted Axel, asking him for an update.

"Did they talk?" Nathan asked him curiously. He was referring to the members of the King Stallion who were captured in Zhou's hospital. "Why are they after Phantomflake? What does the King Stallion want from her?" Nathan bombarded Axel with so many questions.

Stephen took a deep sigh. "Supreme Leader…" he paused. He didn't know how he would bring up the bad news to Nathan.

"What? Did something happen?" Nathan already sensed that Stephen was disappointed by something.

"The men we've captured… committed suicide even before we could interrogate them. They took their lives with poison as if they were always prepared to die if their plans were compromised. This is how loyal they are to their organization. They chose to die, instead of leaking information to their enemies."

Nathan's expression darkened when he heard that. He cursed inwardly. He didn't expect that those men would be loyal to their organization to the extent of killing their own selves.

"Now, I understand why it's hard to get intel from them. King trained his henchmen well. They are like loyal dogs who are willing to jump and die for their master." Nathan felt threatened by the King's power and influence. He still couldn't figure out how King Stallion managed to find out Jane's whereabouts.

"Supreme Leader. I'll do the same for you. I'll die for you, not betray you." Axel tried to console his Supreme Leader.

Nathan's expression softened because of Axel's last remarks. He knew he could trust him. Maybe, he was not that iron-hand leader and he failed to discipline his men which led to their betrayal. Joker was a living example. But he was glad that Joker regretted his action and he was now trying to redeem himself by infiltrating the enemy's territory and doing this dangerous mission of being a double agent or rather spy.

"I'll wait for Joker's update. Maybe he will learn something about the real motive of King Stallion. I want to know why they are chasing after Phantomflake." Nathan wanted to gamble on this. Joker was his only hope.

After ending the call, Nathan decided to check on Jane and Ethan. He wanted to make sure that Jane was fine. He was about to leave his study when he heard a knock. He opened the door only to be surprised to see Jane. She was now standing there with an unfathomable expression.

Nathan had the urge to hold her again but he restrained himself from doing so. "Where is Ethan?" Nathan asked her.

"He fell asleep," Jane simply replied.

Nathan stepped to the side, letting her in. Jane stepped forward, following Nathan inside his study.

Jane was a little bit confused because of the sudden changes in Nathan's attitude. She wanted to test him.

"Is your room not yet ready? You should be resting by now." Nathan motioned for her to sit down.

But Jane remained standing in front of him while staring at him intently. Nathan frowned. He wondered why Jane was giving her this kind of gaze.

"Monica is alive. I'll find her and I'll kill her." Jane declared to Nathan, not breaking their eye-to-eye contact.

The crease on Nathan's forehead deepened further upon hearing that.

"I'm here to warn you. Don't get in my way, Nate. I don't care if she is Ethan's mother and your beloved woman," Jane spoke again, flashing her evil smile. She was clearly provoking Nathan, testing his temper.

She didn't need his pity. She didn't want him to treat her kindly just because he presumed she was dying.

Nathan squinted his eyes at her. Nathan grabbed her by her neck. "Don't play tricks with me, Phantomflake." Nathan's cold voice reverberated inside the room, his eyes burning with rage.

But Phantomflake just smirked at him, pressing her hands against his chest, her fingers teasing him. "You can't kill me, Nate. Just admit it. You've already fallen for me."

Jane changed her method after she was done provoking the devil. Now, she wanted to test him and find out how he would respond to her.

With one swift move, Phantomflake pulled his shirt, closing their gaps as she crushed her lips against his lips.

Nathan's mind went blank and his body froze the moment he felt her soft lips ravaging his own lips. Jane was kissing him aggressively with longing.

She failed to control her desire to kiss this guy. Nathan showed her a different attitude a while ago. He let her feel safe and warm with his genuine concern.

'Jane… just at this moment… I want to be with him… and forget about everything.' Jane thought to herself. Her past memories kept telling her she was unworthy of Nathan. Before she could stay away from him, Jane wanted to be selfish just today.

Surprisingly, Nathan just found himself responding to her. He lost! He couldn't resist her. His lips began to move and his hands hold her waist, pulling her closer to him.
