A Crazy Night (Nathaniel and Christina) novel Chapter 348

Chapter 348 Official Business

After breakfast, Christina went to the shooting location to get ready for work.

Since it had rained the day before, the amount of sunlight was perfect for the shoot. Hence, the job was completed right before noon.

Coco took a few selfies with her and uploaded the photos online to let everyone know that Christina was her stylist.

The two had known each other since they were at the bottom of the corporate hierarchy, and they had been working hard to prove themselves. Therefore, Coco was more than willing to share her connections with Christina.

Christina, on the other hand, would also make time to personally tailor new gowns for Coco.

Although they were both established individuals in the industry now, they were still eager to help each

other out.

Christina finally arrived downtown when it was close to the afternoon.

Having worked for the past couple of days, Christina went back to Scenic Garden Manor to freshen up.

She then went downstairs after showering and changing into a new set of clothes.

Raymond saw her coming down the stairs and asked, “Have you had lunch, Mrs. Hadley?”

“No. Is Mr. Hadley coming back to eat?” she asked. Nathaniel isn’t used to eating out, so he’ll normally either come back to Scenic Garden Manor to eat or get Sebastian to pack food from home.

“Mr. Taggart informed me Mr. Hadley has to attend to some clients, so he told me not to prepare food for Mr. Hadley,” Raymond reported.

“All right, then. You may go back to work,” Christina answered. If that’s the case, Nathaniel is most probably skipping lunch and drinking wine on an empty stomach. Does he not know how bad that is for his stomach? Since he drove over an hour for my sake last night, I should return the favor.

With that in mind, Christina went to the kitchen and started cooking.

Around ten minutes later, she packed up the food she made and drove to the office.

Upon arriving at the office, Christina took the elevator to the CEO’s office on the

top

floor.

At that moment, Nathaniel was in the middle of a meeting with the executives from several departments.

Christina didn’t know what they were talking about in the conference room, but she saw how solemn their expressions were. In fact, she could even feel the tense atmosphere despite standing on the other side of the glass panel.

Indeed, the atmosphere in the conference room couldn’t be any more tense. Due to a mistake, someone almost leaked the latest technology the company was developing.

Thus, the executives from the three major departments had to explain themselves.

At the moment, those experienced executives were going through their apology letters repeatedly to make sure they got everything right before submitting them.

The senior executive of the research department was seen wiping the sweat off his forehead repeatedly after giving a lengthy explanation.

Just then, Nathaniel lifted his gaze and saw Christina standing by the door.

Upon noticing the lunchbox in her hand, Nathaniel knew what she was there for.

“Let’s take a half an hour break,” Nathaniel uttered.

“Mr. Hadley, this is an important meeting. We can’t afford to take breaks.” Madison’s expression changed slightly. Nathaniel is pausing the meeting because of Christina! That woman is disrupting Nathaniel’s work! Does she do anything else apart from eating and pleasing Nathaniel?

Nathaniel rose to his feet and uttered coldly, “I know what I’m doing. You should worry about yourself.”

Madison clenched her fists and teared up a little as she watched Nathaniel leave the conference room, bring Christina to his office, and lock the door behind them.

Initially, Christina wanted to leave after giving Nathaniel the lunchbox.

However, he had already locked the door, so she put the lunchbox on the coffee table and opened it. “Have you had your lunch?”

“No.” Nathaniel answered.

Hearing that, Christina poured him a bowl of soup and asked, “Don’t you know you have gastric problems? Why are you doing this to yourself?”

“Well, no one is reminding me to eat.” Nathaniel took the bowl from her and unintentionally touched the back of her hand.

“I’m sure Sebastian is more capable than anyone to remind you to eat on time.”

Everyone in the company knew how committed Sebastian was to his job. As a matter of fact, he was a meticulous assistant who would pay the utmost attention to every single detail.

Nathaniel couldn’t complain about Sebastian’s efficiency, so he merely lowered his head and drank his

soup.

After drinking a few mouthfuls of the hot soup, Nathaniel looked a lot more at ease. “Do we have a new

chef at home?”

“No” Christina sat opposite him.

“The taste is different from usual. Nathaniel arched a brow and looked at her.

Christina blushed and admitted, “I cooked.”

Nathaniel flashed her a smile and continued drinking his soup.

Evidently, his appetite was good that day, and although he couldn’t finish all the food Christina brought over, he finished the soup.

Christina cleared the table and walked toward the door with the lunchbox in her hand. “Don’t misunderstand any intentions. The meal was merely a token of appreciation for your company last night.”

With that, she left in a hurry,

Nathaniel broke into a smile as he watched her leave. This means she has finally acknowledged my feelings for

her.

Camila and Lucas were waiting at the entrance for Nathaniel to return home from work that evening, and they rushed out immediately when they saw a black Maybach pulling up into the driveway.

Nathaniel saw the kids running toward the car and instantly ordered the driver to stop the vehicle.

He picked the kids up immediately after exiting the car while uttering. “Don’t ever do this again. It’s dangerous.”

Camila and Lucas couldn’t wait to see Nathaniel because they had something important to tell him.
