Can't Win Me Back (Isabella and Nathan) novel Chapter 114

"Who is it?" Nathan impatiently walked towards the door.

Opening the door, Nathan was taken aback when he saw the person outside. They looked haggard, with disheveled hair and vacant eyes, resembling a female ghost.

"Victoria, how did you come here?" Nathan's handsome face showed surprise.

Victoria suddenly produced a dagger as if by magic, placing it against her own neck, her eyes filled with tears as she looked at Nathan. "Nathan, I was born weak in this lifetime, and living has never been easy for me. But because I met you, I had hope for each day in the future. Now that you don't want me anymore, my life has lost its meaning. So I might as well end it all. However, you are the person I love the most, and I hope you can help me with my funeral later, so my obsession with you won't be in vain."

After saying that, Victoria's blade had already pierced the skin.

Nathan's face turned pale with fear, and he quickly approached Victoria and snatched the knife from her hand, throwing it far away. He exclaimed in horror, "What are you doing?"

Victoria stubbornly said, "Why did you save me? Since you've decided not to have me, I won't survive no matter what. You saved me today, but what about tomorrow? The day after tomorrow? You can't always be by my side, can you?"

Nathan looked at Victoria, who appeared to be crazy. There was tenderness and weariness in his eyes. He reached out and embraced her, gently saying, "Victoria, stop acting up. I'm just too tired, let me rest for two days. I will definitely come up with a perfect solution to the problem."

Victoria held him and burst into tears.

"Nathan. I know I burdened you. I also want to let you go, but I have relied on you since I was young, and it has become a habit. I don't know how to live after leaving you."

Nathan held her silently.

In fact, he himself had no idea how to resolve the deadlock between Victoria and the Hill family.

"Hey, seeing dirty things so early in the morning, what a bad omen," a clear and melodious voice came.

Nathan felt a little awkward and slightly pushed Victoria away, creating a small gap between them.

Victoria saw his reaction, and her pale face became even paler.

"Thea, what are you here for?" Victoria angrily interrogated.

Thea walked up to Nathan with a mischievous smirk in her eyes and said, "I, you see, have come to collect a debt. Nathan, your personal credit has encountered some issues, so your check cannot be cashed."

Victoria was stunned, "Nonsense, how could Nathan owe you money?"

Thea smiled brightly and said, "Nathan, tell her how much money you owed me."

Nathan had a stern face and said, "I owed her money. Five billion."

Victoria's face paled.

In her eyes, Nathan's money was mostly meant for her enjoyment. It was absolutely unacceptable for him to give it to other women for no reason.

"How did you end up owing her so much money, Nathan?" she exclaimed.

Nathan frowned.

Thea maliciously instigated, "Nathan, it seems like your wife didn't quite appreciate you spending money on other women."

She turned around and mocked Victoria again, saying, "I am not you, I do not settle for crumbs."

Victoria hung her head in ridicule. She said indignantly, "That's not what I meant... He has absolute control over Nathan's money." She was truly obedient and submissive.

Thea felt physically uncomfortable watching her act. She sneered, "You don't have to put on this pretentious facade. As his wife, you have to bear half of the debts your husband owes. You have the right to know the reasons behind his debts. There's no need to live so humbly."

Victoria, encouraged by her, bravely glared at Nathan with an angry expression. "Nathan, what on earth is going on in Nathan?"

Nathan said, "I bought her The City of Cycles."

Victoria's face changed dramatically. "The City of Cycles?"

Nathan nodded, "Hmm."

Thea left satisfied.

Nathan quickly put his villa up for sale. The luxurious villa, which had a market value of seven billion, was thus sold by him at a low price, effectively reducing its value by one billion.

Alaric learned about this matter and became extremely angry.

"This spendthrift, how did he become more and more unable to make it to the surface?" He threw all the tea cups on the desk to the ground.

His assistant comforted him, "Mr. Hill, don't be angry. Mr. Nathan got caught up in a love affair, which is truly a pity. But even though Mr. Nathan is ruined, at least you still have Mr. Caleb. You don't know, Mr. Caleb signed a big deal with the Browns today."

"The Browns?" Alaric couldn't contain his excitement.

"Well, luckily my second child has made something of themselves."

Alaric instructed his assistant, "Nathan has quite a lot of real estate in his hands, and we can't let that squanderer, Nathan, squander it all away. You go figure out a way to stop Nathan's villa from being sold."

The assistant replied, "Yes."

With Alaric secretly sabotaging, Nathan's plan to sell the house was not going smoothly.

Until Theo arrived.

"Did I hear that Mr. Nanthan is selling his house?" Theo asked directly.

Nathan saw him and was reminded of the swallows on The City of Cycles, no longer able to see him as a naive young boy.

"Mr. Nathan used to call me 'Mr. Theo' a few days ago, but how quickly he changed his tune?"

Nathan, not willing to compromise his self-esteem, said, "I know better."

Nathan's face darkened slightly, "What are you here for?"
