A Crazy Night (Nathaniel and Christina) novel Chapter 374

Chapter 374 Nathaniel Burns Up With A Fever

“Why would you want to meet me in a place like this? Have you become a party girl during my absence?” Christina asked while pinching her cheeks.

Bailey gave her waist a tight hug and replied with a smile, “Of course not! This bar belongs to a friend of mine. I just came over to support his business. That’s all! Now, enough talk about me. Do you have any idea how much I’ve missed you? Tell me where you’ve been throughout the past four years!”

Christina proceeded to give her a brief summary of the events that took place. Bailey got so mad at Nathaniel after hearing her story that she wanted to chop him up into pieces.

“Unbelievable! I thought he loved you, but he turned out to be a possessive control freak! As if that wasn’t bad enough, he even had the audacity to use the kids to threaten you into staying with him!” she shouted while slamming her fist on the table.

Christina felt glad to know that she had someone who actually cared about her. “It’s fine. I can handle it. I’ve managed to survive all these years, and he isn’t really giving me a hard time now. Anyway, let’s not ruin the mood by talking about such sad things. Cheers!”

In the mean time, Raymond had called Christina several times using the landline at Scenic Garden Manor, -but she never answered her phone.

“How is it? Is Mrs. Hadley still not picking up?” Sebastian asked anxiously.

The butler put the phone down and shook his head. “Mrs. Hadley would usually pick up if we call her using this landline. I’m assuming she and Mr. Hadley got into a very huge fight this time.”

Sebastian, too, had no idea why things had gotten worse between them after they returned from the amusement park,

The doctor came down from the second floor.

“How is Mr. Hadley doing, doctor?” Sebastian asked anxiously.

“Things are not looking good. The wound on his back has gotten inflamed because it wasn’t treated in time, so he’s at risk of getting an infection. On top of that, he is also burning up with a high fever. If this goes on, he could catch pneumonia. I have suggested Mr. Hadley seek treatment at a hospital, but he refused and wouldn’t even take his medication,” the doctor replied with a stern look on his face.

Mutual cooperation between patient and doctor was necessary for a treatment to be successful, so there wasn’t much the doctor could do in this situation.

“I’ll leave the medication here. Please send Mr. Hadley to a hospital immediately if his condition worsens,” the doctor continued and left the house.

The butler’s expression slid into a frown. “Mrs. Hadley is the only one who can persuade Mr. Hadley.”

Having recalled something, Sebastian asked, “Didn’t Mrs. Hadley leave the house in one of the drivers’ cars?”

“Oh, you’re right! We could try asking the driver about her whereabouts,” Raymond replied as he whipped out his phone and punched in the driver’s number.

“Where is Mrs. Hadley right now? What? A bar? Hurry up and tell her that Mr. Hadley is very sick. We need her to come home immediately!”

Gosh! I can’t believe Mrs. Hadley is out there partying while Mr. Hadley is burning up with a high fever here!

Sebastian’s expression turned extremely gloomy at the thought of that.

Having downed two glasses of cocktails, Christina was feeling a little tipsy even though the drinks were fairly low in alcohol content.

“Mr. Hadley is sick, Mrs. Hadley! Please return to the manor immediately!” said the driver.

Christina had a little furrow between her eyebrows as she replied, “He should see a doctor if he’s sick. I’m no doctor, so I wouldn’t be able to treat him anyway.”

Because the driver had yet to hang up the phone, Sebastian and Raymond were able to hear what she said.

Since when did Mrs. Hadley become so cold and heartless?

“But Mr. Hadley is-”

“Go wait outside. I’m hanging out with my friend right now,” Christina cut him off.

“All right, then.” The driver turned around and walked out of the bar without saying another word.

Bailey wrapped an arm around her shoulder and asked, “What’s the matter? Is that heartless monster sick?”

Christina gritted her teeth in anger when she recalled what Nathaniel did to her at the amusement park. Hmph! Serves him right!

She then downed another glass of cocktail in an attempt to drown her negative emotions. “He has doctors who will tend to him if he’s sick, so there’s no point in me rushing home now.”

Bailey gave her a thumbs up when she saw how determined Christina was. “Well said! You can’t let him control you like that!”

The two of them had a few more rounds of drinks before finally leaving the bar.

“My driver will send me home. Make sure to text me when you get home, okay?” Bailey said while waving. goodbye.

“All right.”

Christina then got into her driver’s car, and the driver floored the accelerator all the way back to the

manor.

After he parked the car outside the front door, Christina got out and casually made her way into the

house.

Sebastian ran up to her and said anxiously, “Mrs. Hadley! Please go have a look at Mr. Hadley! He’s very sick and refuses to take his medication!”

Mr. Hadley’s life is in danger! This cannot wait any longer!

Nathaniel Burns Up With A Fever

Christina simply shot him a cold glance and replied nonchalantly. “That just means his condition isn’t really all that serious. I’m sure he’ll take his medicine if his condition gets really bad.”
