A Crazy Night (Nathaniel and Christina) novel Chapter 129

Chapter 129 Francis To The Rescue

With an arched brow, Francis crossed his arms and stared at her puzzledly. “Your husband is filthy rich. Why are you working so hard for money? Is he not letting you spend his money?”

Christina raised her brows in response. “That’s not the case, of course. It’s just that I’m still so young, so I don’t want to rely on my husband financially. I want to spend my own money. You know what? Forget I ever asked,” she answered. I’ll just contact the other studios. I should be able to make some money if I hide my identity.

“Wait. I have great connections, so obviously, I know some people. They’ll pay at least three hundred thousand for each outfit. Will that work?” Francis called out to her.

“Of course! I’ll pay you commissions if the deal goes through.” Christina was surprised to hear how much she could make. If I can make that much money, no longer have to worry about Mom’s medical fees.

“I don’t need commissions. Perhaps you can treat me to a meal instead,” Francis suggested.

Christina hesitated for a while before agreeing, “Sure]

“I’ll send you the contacts later,” Francis said and got back to his work.

Christina kept Coco company until the shooting was done, and Sebastian came to fetch Christina right before noon.

Coincidentally, Gwyneth saw Christina getting into the car.

“She’s just a stylist, no? Why is she getting picked up in such an expensive car?” Gwyneth’s assistant had noticed Christina as well.

“I bet she’s a mistress. She looks so shady, but she’s pretending to be an innocent girl,” Gwyneth sneered.

“She’s clearly loaded. Why is she still working so hard I bet she’s trying to get close to Mr. Fernando!” the assistant uttered firmly. I’ve been working in the entertainment industry for so many years now, so I’ve seen countless people coming into the industry to get close to celebrities. Plenty of people are going after Mr. Fernando

because he’s handsome.

“Is Christina after Francis?” Gwyneth’s expression froze. I haven’t even gotten rid of Coco! Now, I have to deal with Christina as well!

With that in mind, Gwyneth demanded angrily, “Find out who Christina is working for!”

“Yes, Ms. Lawson.”

By the time Christina arrived in the city center, it was Junchtime. Hence, Sebastian sent her to Hadley Corporation.

Upon arriving in the CEO’s office, she saw Nathaniel working on his computer.

Shortly after she arrived, the chef entered the office with a cart and piled up the coffee table with delicious dishes.

“Mr. Hadley, lunch is ready,” the chef uttered and left the office.

Hearing that, Nathaniel rose to his feet and walked up to Christina. “Is the food enough?” he asked. Although the table is piled up with dishes, the food might not be enough.

“Of course! I don’t think we can finish the food.” Christina smiled in response. Nathaniel must think I’m a glutton.

As soon as those words fell, Nathaniel shot her a dubious glance and sat her down. After that, he removed his coat and rolled up his sleeves as if he was ready to gobble the dishes up.

In the end, Christina ate most of the food prepared, and they managed to finish everything,

When the chef came in to clear the table, he brought long some ice cream.

Seeing that, Christina quickly waved dismissively. “I’m filled to the brim!” she uttered. Gosh! Does he take me for a pig?

“Leave the ice cream here. You can eat it later,” Nathaniel said. Hence, the chef left the ice cream and

exited the office.

After lunch, Nathaniel went back to work right away.

Meanwhile, as Christina rested on the couch, she saw the ice cream melting and didn’t want it to go to waste, so she carefully reached out her hands to grab it.

With her back turned to Nathaniel, she started eating the ice cream.

When Nathaniel eventually lifted his gaze, he saw Christina sitting motionless on the couch and approached her. Only then did he realize that she was asleep.

She looked absolutely like a doll with her long and dark eyelashes, fair skin, and exquisite facial features. At the same time, there was an ice cream stain on her rosy lips.

Nathaniel couldn’t bear to wake her when he saw her sleeping soundly. Hence, he wiped the ice cream stain off her lips, put his coat over her, and lifted her into his arms.

Right then, Sebastian walked in and said, “Mr. Hadley, regarding the meeting at two this afternoon-

Nathaniel cut Sebastian off with a glare and ordered, “Cancel it.”

Sebastian was stunned, and he immediately became wary. When he lowered his gaze, he noticed a person sleeping soundly in Nathaniel’s arms.

“Yes, Mr. Hadley,” Sebastian replied softly.

Afraid that Christina would wake up, Nathaniel hurriedly carried her to the lounge.

Christina ended up sleeping the entire afternoon.

When she woke up, she noticed it was getting dark outside. As she scrambled to her feet, she grumbled, “I have work to do! Why didn’t you wake me up?”

In response, Nathaniel pulled her into his embrace. Before she could struggle out of his arms, he uttered flatly, “I applied for a leave of absence for your

“Oh…” Christina stayed. At least I won’t get a penalty if he already applied for leave for me. I need to save as
