Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation-Chapter 1702 - 220: You Are Unbelievable

Nancy crossed her arms beneath her breast and glowered at her ex-husband. "You are unbelievable!" she growled. "I am so glad that we aren't married anymore. You are a real brute!" 𝗳𝓇ℯe𝓌𝚎𝚋𝓃𝚘𝚟𝘦𝑙.𝑐𝚘𝙢

As the couple quarreled, Clark squatted by the side of the pool and began to feed the dolphins. The dolphins were anxious to snatch the food out of the boy's hands, and they somehow managed to drag him into the water.

Nancy saw what had happened right away, and she began to panic. She didn't know what to do, so she took off her coat and prepared to jump into the pool. But then she remembered that she could not swim. Luckily, some of the people in the audience had seen what happened, and they began to call for help. Some of them even rushed towards the pool to save Clark.

The trainer who had been kicked into the pool was swimming towards the shore, and when he saw Clark, he immediately swam over to rescue him.

As Nancy pulled her son out of the water, Crystal ran over. "Is Clark all right?" she asked.

"He's fine," Nancy replied. "Luckily, the trainer saved him." As she spoke, she turned to the trainer. "Thank you. Can I have your name?" She felt terrible that he'd been kicked into the water, but she was grateful that he had been there when Clark needed him.

"My name is Noah Laurent," the trainer replied. "But please, call me Noah. The child's clothes are all wet. Let me bring him a towel."

People who work in water usually have tanned skin, but Crystal noted that Noah's skin was relatively pale. When he returned with a towel, he offered it to Nancy, but Paul snatched it out of his hands. Then he threw it at Clark's head, and Nancy quickly dried the boy's hair.

Once Clark was as dry as he would get, Nancy smiled at Noah and said, "Can I bring the towel home? I'll return it after washing it." The boy's clothes were still wet, and she was afraid that he would catch a cold. All she wanted to do now was wrap him with the towel and get him home.

Paul took out a few notes from his wallet and threw them to Noah in an insulting way, but instead of accepting them, Noah let the money fall to the ground.

"You can borrow the towel," Noah said. "And I don't need the money. That isn't why I helped the boy."

Nancy: "Thank you. I will get it back to you ASAP."

Suddenly, Paul picked up Clark, and he began to carry him towards the front entrance. When Nancy didn't follow right behind him, he shouted, "Clark is cold. Hurry up!"

Nancy had wanted to ask Noah for his contact information, but with Paul up her ass, she did not get the chance. Crystal knew her friend well, though, and she said, "He probably is single."

Eric knew what she was thinking. "Do you want to set him up with Nancy?" he asked. 𝗳𝒓𝙚e𝓌e𝚋𝙣𝚘𝐯𝙚𝙡.𝑐૦ｍ

"Not exactly," Crystal replied. What she wanted to do was use Noah to provoke Paul.

Eric: "What do you want to do?"

Crystal: "Guess?"

Eric: "I guess you'll find a way to use Noah to make Paul angry and envious."

"Hey!" Crystal exclaimed. "You're not as stupid as you look!"

Eric: "That's why I can be your fiancé. Here, let me run Nancy's number back to Noah, and then I'll catch up."

Crystal laughed as she watched him run back towards the dolphin enclosure. Then, when he returned, he wrapped his arm around Crystal's waist. She sighed but offered no resistance. "I wish you would spend more time thinking about how to help Nancy get custody of Clark," she said. "And I don't like it when you put your hands on me. You know that!"

Eric: "Do you want to burn your bridge before you've even crossed it?"

Crystal: "You're right. I can burn it later."

Eric: "You are a savage woman. I look forward to taming you."

Crystal: "We'll see about that..."

When they got in Paul's car, Nancy took off Clark's wet clothes and wrapped him up in the towel. Then she hugged him tightly and asked if he was cold.

"Cold..." Clark murmured.

"We'll be home soon," Crystal said. "Hold on, baby." As she spoke, she took off her coat, gave it to Clark, and motioned for Eric to do the same. He didn't want to do that, not because he was not a gentleman, but because Nancy was his friend's ex-wife. Because Paul had not offered his jacket, he didn't think that he should either.

Crystal scowled when she saw this, but then she smiled. She leaned into Eric and whispered into his ear: "You promised me that you would do whatever I asked. Now, give the kid your jacket."

Eric was taken aback, but he knew that she was right. "Alright," he said as he handed Nancy his jacket. Paul glared at him, but all he could do was shrug.

Finally, Paul took off his coat and threw it to Nancy. "It's for my son," he said, "It is not for you."

As soon as they arrived at the villa, Nancy rushed into the house with Clark in her arms. Then she ordered the servants to fill the tub with warm water, and she bathed him personally. She put bubbles in the bath, which he loved, and as he played, he said, "Mommy, the dolphins were so cute, but they were a little fierce. They wanted the food too much!"

Nancy: "That's because they were hungry. They put on a good show, though. Right? Are you hungry?"

Clark shook his head. His mind was distracted. After a minute, he said, "Mommy, can I have a dolphin toy? So that I can sleep with it every night."

Nancy: "Fine, I'll buy one for you."

Clark: "But I'm a bad boy…."

Nancy was shocked to hear her good boy say such a thing. "No!" she said.. "Never. Why do you think you are a bad boy?"
