Chapter 260 Chapter no 90
Elton left while Zariah continued to stare at Nathaniel, how eye-catching he looked when he stood before her like a shield.

Her throat dried, holding his shirt from behind with eyes conveying endless affection, seeking his shore.

With his one hand in his pocket and pushing the hair behind with the other, he glanced over his shoulder, finding the woman staring in mesmerization.

His heart unintentionally skipped a beat, words vanishing from his tongue. 

Pulling his shirt, she eradicated their distances, tilting her head adorably to drown in him, linked to a symphonic sensations which moved their hearts in rhythm.

Gradually placing his hand over hers, he inhaled sharply to keep his composure in one place, failing his breaths blended with her, leaning down.

“Stop staring,” 

“Then stare back at me and end my pain,” 

Murmuring, he removed her hand that caused her to turn him and confront her despaired orbs requiring his embrace.

“You being angry with me is killing me, I know you are hurting too,” 

Taking his hand, she placed it over her heart, “Only you are capable to inducing pain here in me,”

Regaining his lost senses, his breaths hitched, abruptly pulling away from her, he awkwardly turned away.

“I am going to the hospital to resign and make arrangements for us to return,” 

Biting her bottom lip anxiously, she asked, attempting to hide her pain.

“What about Zoran?”

Clearing his throat, he turned to leave, igniting embers in her heart by one negligence and it penetrated a needle in his chest.

Turning to leave he replied coldly, “He is also coming back, I will end him where he ended my family,” 

And disappearing her grief, he placed his hand over her head, giving her hair a slight ruffle.

“I will end this loop of resentment. My child doesn’t have to see me like this,” 

Before she could respond, knowing it was directed to the child not her but not allowing her to admire him further, he left. 

Knocking on administrator's office, holding his resignation letter, he entered, “Director Kim,”

Only to find Officer Bob there too. He ordered De Villiers to end him and before he could carry out that order, he lost his life.

“Oh, hello, Dr. Alroy,” Bob smiled, waving his hand at him.

“Oh, Officer Bob,” 

“Ah, Nathaniel, I heard your brother died. I didn’t know you had a brother. I am so sorry for your loss,” Kim paid his condolences as Bob left them alone.

Nodding, he didn’t have enough strength to express grief as he gave his letter.

“It’s alright, um, here,”

His jaw dropped when he read the papers, slamming them angrily on the table, “What? You want to resign too?”

“Yes, I will wrap all of my work today and return my employee card too,” 

Making a disapproving face, he was filled with rage when the condition of his hospital was confronting a critical time. 

“We first find out Keith was using a fake degree and now leaving too. One a deceiver and the other best surgeon of mine leaving. What about your research papers?” 

He used reason to make him stay but to no avail. Forcing a hollow smile, he shrugged it off.

“I will send them before leaving, you can publish them under your name,”

Loosening his shoulders, he curled his lips downwards, not preferring his departure but his best was resolved to leave. 

Sighing, he asked softly, “Is everything alright?”

“Yeah, I am going back to America, my home is waiting for me.”

He arched an eyebrow questioningly, “What is waiting for you at your home?”

“My future,” 

Taken aback at the strenuous reply, he nodded, not questioning further and signed the papers. 

“Okay… take care,”

“Thank you,”

Exchanging a nod out of respect, Nathaniel walked out only to find Bob waiting for him. Leaning against the wall, making a failed attempt at whistling.

Nathaniel smirked at his endeavor and whistled, “You can’t do this,” 

Chuckling nervously, he went after Nathaniel who walked down the corridor to check on his patients for the final time.

“Hey, listen,” 

“I thought a lot about your offer,”

Stopping, he raised an eyebrow, going away from people, “And?”

“I have people I adore who can look up at me like I am their ideal. My wrong step will ruin their point of view. Kill me if you want,” 

And for a heartbeat, he recalled, his father did the same. He intended to follow the same trail.

And it halted him

Ending in a sigh, he returned the dagger he took from him. Nathaniel was taken aback, looking up at him and back at the dagger.

“Bob,”

“Hmm?”

Taking it back, he pointed it directly at his throat, the blade stopping when it touched his skin.

Bob’s body flinched, mentally prepared to die as the consequence of diving into this matter.

“How old is your son?”

He gulped, “Ten, why?”

Smirking in return, he pulled back the dagger, hiding it. Releasing the breath he stopped.

He sighed in relief as Nathaniel gave his shoulder a pat before walking away, granting the officer his breaths back.

“Take good care of him,”
