Chapter 665 Connor’s Identity
Connor pursed his lips and did not answer, taking a towel to wipe her sweat.She was wearing his T-shirt and trousers, the top was loose and she had tied a knot in it, the trousers were too long and she had rolled up the cuffs, only her shoes were her own, those worn-out military boots.
Connor took off her shoes, and immediately saw the marks on her ankle. Rolling up the trousers for a better look, he couldn’t help but gasp!
Her calves were covered in deep scratches, with obvious blood and bruises, it was a shocking sight.
A look of anger surfaced in Connor’s eyes as he asked coldly, "Who did this?"
Natalie Niles just realized that it was Cora Ginger who had scratched her calves.
But at that moment she didn’t feel much, as the pain in her chest was more fatal; compared to that, being scratched didn’t even seem painful.
She couldn’t admit it, she was about to come up with a lie, but then she swallowed the deceit back down.
Because she suddenly remembered he didn’t like her lying.
But she couldn’t admit it either.
She ran out late at night just to get his one hundred thousand dollars back, making her seem petty and foolish, like she had a middle-school syndrome.
Natalie Niles didn’t speak, and Connor didn’t press further.
Not making up a lie to fool him was already good enough.
He got some medicine, cleaned her wounds, applied the medicine, and bandaged them, then went downstairs with a cold face to bring up some food to feed her bite by bite.
After eating, Natalie Niles quickly fell asleep.
Connor watched her for a while, then got up and went next door.
"Young Master, she is back."
"Hmm."
Harry Hunter, his business trip concluded, returned to A City with Isabella Weaver in the evening.
Isabella Weaver had been having a lot of fun these days, but was exhausted, she was already asleep.
Harry Hunter, however, was still dealing with business, assigning work.
He looked at Connor, and asked calmly, "When are you getting married?"
"Not getting married, we broke up."
A trace of surprise flashed in Harry Hunter’s eyes, "Why?"
"We are not suitable together."
"Didn’t you like her a lot?"
"Even so, we can’t be together."
Harry Hunter’s expression settled with understanding, "Because of me?"
"She found out about that underground passage."
"Can’t you just get someone to block it off later?"
Connor shook his head, "No, it’s better to break up."
Otherwise, if she found out about one secret passage today, she could find out about more passages and more secrets tomorrow.
It’s difficult to guard against those close to you.
He truly had no confidence he’d come out unscathed from Natalie Niles, it was fine if he failed himself, but he couldn’t let Harry Hunter follow into trouble.
"Alright, you make your own decision."
"Then starting tomorrow, I’ll continue to stay with the Young Master."
"Hmm."
"Have you been well these past few days?"
"Hmm."
"Are David and the others doing their jobs well?"
"Hmm."
"Then..."
Harry Hunter finally couldn’t bear it: "Just say what you have to say!"
Connor felt a bit embarrassed, "It’s nothing, I just missed you, Young Master, I’ve never been apart from you for so long."
Harry Hunter’s icy cold face finally looked a bit better, he snorted and dismissed him, "Go back to your woman!"
Connor smiled, turned around and left the villa, but just as he reached his doorstep, suddenly a group of people surged around him.
This group had more than twenty people, they seemed to be well-trained, each one highly skilled!
Connor’s expression turned grave, he prepared for a confrontation, about to ask where they came from, only to see the group swiftly kneel on one knee in unison.
The leader spoke in broken Mandarin, saying calmly, "Your Highness, we are here under the King’s orders to request your return to the country!"
