Chương 1804: Chapter 322: If Only I Could Hold On To This Moment

Not only did the book contain a sketch of Nathan, but it also contained some of Crystal's most intimate thoughts. If Nathan read them, there was no telling what he would do.

Crystal knew that it had been foolish to write all of her intimate thoughts down, but journaling had always helped her think. It had been a close call, though, and as much as she hated the thought of it, she knew that it would be best if she destroyed the book. She brought it outside and threw it in the fire pit. She stood over it for a long time, but she could not bear the thought of destroying it.

Finally, she took the book and a shovel out to the beach. She found the spot where Nathan had set up the heart-shaped candle display, and she looked around. Nearby, there was a beautiful lilac tree, and its rich scent drew her to it. This is the place - she thought.

The sand was so soft that the hole practically dug itself, and the book was safely underground in no time at all.
