A Crazy Night (Nathaniel and Christina) novel Chapter 285

Chapter 285 Buying All

Christina waited for him in the office.

While she hesitated whether to tell Nathaniel about that matter, the tightly closed office door was pushed

open.

Madison entered with a few documents. A hint of surprise flashed across her eyes when she saw Christina. “Mrs Hadley, you may want to go back first. It’s always hard to tell how long Mr. Hadley’s meetings will last. If some unexpected situations occur, we may have to work overtime. Just the night before, we worked until three in the morning. Ah, forget it. You won’t be able to experience them firsthand even if I tell you these things.”

At that point, a prideful look spread across Madison’s visage as only she could work alongside Nathaniel.

Looking at Madison’s smug expression, Christina had a strong feeling that Madison could truly be the culprit who tried to harm her.

She gently put down the cup in her hand and uttered nonchalantly. “You’re absolutely right. It’s just like how I’m the only one who can take care of Nathaniel when he gets home. That’s something you’ll never experience in your whole life.”

“You” Madison’s face flushed crimson. Her boiling anger caused her heart to palpitate as she subconsciously clenched her fists.

Christina narrowed her eyes and met Madison’s gaze coldly.

The atmosphere inside the office was instantly filled with hostility and tension.

At that moment, the door to the office was pushed open again, followed by Nathaniel’s entry.

Noticing Nathaniel walking in, Madison immediately wiped away her frosty expression and recomposed herself to her usual calm demeanor.

“Since you rarely drop by, you must try the new coffee our company recently procured. Mrs. Hadley. Let me prepare a cup for you.” With that, Madison left with a smile.

Christina was amazed at how swiftly Madison could alter her mien.

When she was about to speak, her phone rang.

She noticed it was a call from the police station.

Nathaniel glanced at her. “Why aren’t you answering?”

His piercing gaze unnerved her, prompting her to pick up her phone and answer the call.

“Ms. Christina, we’ve apprehended the suspect who pushed you onto the road. He’s an individual with an antisocial personality disorder. Through our thorough investigation, we ascertained this man has never crossed paths with you in his life. The suspect has now been detained.”

Subsequently, Christina’s doubts were cleared up. “All right. I’m glad that everything is fine.”

“If you need any help, please don’t hesitate to contact us.”

“Okay. Thank you,”

After hanging up the phone, Christina felt fear lingering in her chest when she recalled that frightening scene earlier. If that driver hadn’t swerved in time, the consequences would’ve been dire

Taking in her distracted demeanor, Nathaniel asked concernedly, “Who called you?”

She deleted the call log and put away her phone. “It’s nothing. The delivery time of a batch of fabrics I ordered got delayed. This is just a random accident anyway, so there’s no need to alarm Nathaniel. In that case, does that mean this matter is unrelated to Madison? Have I been overthinking?

Nathaniel noticed Christina had been a little absent–minded lately. He found it difficult to figure out the secrets she was hiding from him as if there was some kind of invisible barrier between them. “Work is important, but so is your health.”

Christina collected herself, walked up to him, and pinched his nose. “I got it. You’re still so young, yet you’re already starting to nag me.”

He pulled her into his embrace. “I know your studio will be organizing its first exhibition soon, so I’ve already helped to reserve the central space in the mall for you

He couldn’t stand seeing her working so hard. Therefore, he would provide her full assistance regarding tasks within his capabilities.

Christina wrapped her arms around his neck and beamed at him. “You’re the best.”

She was indeed preparing for her studio’s first show, and there simply wasn’t enough time in a day for her to finish her work.

At that moment, Madison, who was holding a cup of freshly brewed coffee, witnessed the scene of Nathaniel and Christina cuddling. Intense jealousy and rage overwhelmed her.

She turned around and returned to her office with fury surging within her.

At that moment, she wanted to expose all the photos of Christina and Francis on her phone to let the public judge if a woman like her deserved to stay by Nathaniel’s side.

Unfortunately, after Francis decided not to join forces with her, he warned her not to disclose those pictures.

As a result, Madison had to deal with Christina alone, which wasn’t an easy feat.

All of a sudden, Madison thought of someone. That person was her good friend from her university days, Jewel Lacroix.

Christina was focused on preparing for her studio’s first show lately and soon forgot all about the incident of her being pushed onto the road.

She worked tirelessly for nearly a month to complete all ten sets of gowns.

Christina even invited Bailey to model for her.

On the night of the show, many socialites and heads of major fashion companies attended.

Christina could guess that those esteemed figures in the industry were willing to show up because Nathaniel had helped her promote her studio’s exhibition behind the scenes.

As the music began, everyone turned their attention to the unique show.

Initially, the members of the audience were merely there to fill the seats, but when they saw Christina’s designs, all of them widened their eyes in astonishment.

“As expected of a brand sponsored by Mr. Hadley. The designs are avant–garde and trendy!”

“You know what? I’m actually interested in a few of those gowns.”

“If you like them, you should hurry up and place an order. I heard these are limited editions, with only one piece available for each design. If you’re slow, they’ll be sold out.”
