99 Days Trapped in the Body of the Royal Prince’s Wife - Chapter 59
Nathan stopped his bicycle in a park near skyscrapers where many people also relax. He invited Clara to sit on the Japanese grass, then eat the snacks he had bought while still on the trip.
“Honey, they must be looking for us,” said Clara, who sat on her back while Nathan lay down using her thighs to support his head.
“Well, their job is to look for,” Nathan said casually.
Clara sighed, glanced around that looked beautiful and comfortable, many couples were also relaxing there. She didn’t expect Nathan to invite her here because previously she knew Nathan was very glamorous and might not like this simple thing.
“I was thinking of Casey,” Nathan muttered, breaking Clara’s thoughts.
“Why?” asked Clara.
“If the accident was intentional, it means that someone has disliked her all along. You said she had no one, but he had wealth…I think that wealth is the reason she is like this,” Nathan explained, looking up at the sky with a slight squint. “I don’t know why I feel, maybe t motive is to take her wealth,” he continued.
Clara was silent, curious and her thoughts immediately turned to Oskar who closed the case after receiving information from the police, then allowed the police to sell the car until it reached Los Angeles and was finally bought by Russell and brought to San Francisco again.
“Don’t you have any suspicions?” Nathan asked, staring at the dreamy Clara.
“Eh… I don’t know who to be suspicious of, because she said her uncle who raised her since childhood was very good to her..all good to her, she never badmouthed anyone who lived close to her,” replied Clara.
Nathan sighed, then looked back at the sky. “At the time I wanted to be nonchalant about Casey’s accident, but slowly I came to this theory. and if it is true that someone close to her was the cause of the accident, then she is in danger.”
“Danger?”
“Yeah, she could have been killed in her own house. It was easy enough now that she was in a coma..even if she was killed, the perpetrator would easily say she died slowly because her condition was already weak. But… But I hope that doesn’t happen. Poor her,” Nathan explained suddenly became restless, even last night’s dream began to haunt him..’And I don’t know why she took your place to sleep with me in last night’s dream, it was so clear and felt so real,’ he thought.
“Is that possible? She’s going to be killed..? Can someone be that cruel to one’s own family just because of money?” Clara wondered.
“It can happen, honey. Because the closest to us are sometimes our enemies,” Nathan explained.
‘If my body dies, that means there’s no chance for me to return? Or I will never return, then this body will also die in due time? And means…does that mean there’s no chance for me to live after those 99 days are over?’ Clara wondered, starting to get scared and sad.
“That’s why I started secretly investigating…I want to catch those who betrayed Casey before they do anything fatal to her while now she is very concerned,” Nathan said angrily then ate his snack which was a chocolate snack.
“No, it’s not necessary,” Clara cried, remembering Arion’s message.
“Why? Don’t you want justice for Casey?” asked Nathan curiously.
“Ehh…” Casey was confused, frowning. “Ehh… I mean. It’s not good for you if there is a bad person behind Casey’s accident…I’m afraid that this bad person is knowing what you did to do evil to you too.”
“But Casey needs justice, needs protection…I thought that, if I could find out who the culprit was, I’d get Casey hospitalized again, and then carefully guarded so no one would dare to hurt her,” Nathan said blankly as if imagining something. . . “But hopefully she will wake up soon. That’s better than anything,” he continued.
“But I don’t want you to be in any danger because of this, honey. I’m worried about you,” Clara coaxed with a pleading look.
Nathan smiled faintly, then sat down and looked at Clara intensely. he tucked his wife’s hair behind her ear, then touched her sexy, naturally pink lips.
“There’s no need to worry because surely my confidant is very good at secretly conducting this investigation..this will not be known by the mastermind of the Casey accident case,” he said confidently.
“Is that confidant is Felix?” Clara asked, worried that Nathan would be fooled again.
“No, he’s not Felix,” Nathan replied. “Felix is already busy with other matters involving the safety of my family. So, I will not burden him with this case,” he continued.
Clara let out a shaky breath. “You trust him.”
“Because I’ve known him for a long time..he’s pretty smart ’cause I took him from the top CIA agent in the country. He even saved me from being attacked by thugs… He beat them one by one without getting hurt. He is very reliable in every way,” said Nathan, who made Felix so proud.
Clara looked at Nathan with a strange look. “You admire him too much like a fan … You love him,” she said.
“Hey, I’m not gay …” Nathan said with a frown.
“But the truth is, you make him look precious in your eyes.” Clara bent her face, feeling sluggish because it was so hard for Nathan to understand.
Nathan touched Clara’s chin, making her look up at her. “Are you feeling jealous?” he asked.
“No,” said Clara.
“Then what?”
“It is nothing. I don’t like Felix, then I also don’t agree with you getting involved in Casey’s accident,” Clara explained curtly. “And the case has been closed, so don’t bring it up again.”
“Honey, but don’t you want to take care of her, justice for her…only then can we get her transferred from the house to the hospital,” Nathan said seriously. “You don’t have to worry. The person I ordered to investigate this case is also smart, just like Felix,” he continued convincingly.
‘Even Felix is only good at lying to you. I am sure of it. I’m sure he’s behind all the trouble you get,’ Clara thought angrily.
Nathan sighed, looking at Clara who was silent as if angry.
“Honey … Don’t be angry,” Nathan shouted.
“I’m annoyed, I’m angry that you can’t be prevented…You don’t think about my feelings. You don’t know how worried I am if the bad guy finds out about your steps in investigating this case, he’ll do your best to harm you,” said Clara angrily, looking at Nathan who was so handsome even though he looked a little wrinkled and sweaty because he had cycled quite a distance. “Do you want to make me a widow?”
“Hey, of course not.”
“But you did something dangerous… It would threaten your life!”
“That’s not going to happen. Trust me everything will be fine,” Nathan shouted. “You won’t be a widow… Believe me…I’m always safe because you know how the bodyguards take care of me so strictly.”
Clara sighed, glancing at Nathan who was so weird, sweet, and caring but hard to stop. ‘If you only knew, I would never be a widow because after this I don’t know I will have the opportunity to continue my life as Casey or not, and you are the one who is a widower … Because the real Clara is dead,’ she thought.
