A Crazy Night (Nathaniel and Christina) novel Chapter 388

Chapter 388 Mastermind.

Christina picked up the document expressionlessly in order to conceal her emotions. This looks like a good deal. We’ll split the profit in half, and it says Gibson Corporation will come up with the capital.

“Interesting terms. However…” Christina lifted her gaze to meet Yerek’s gaze. “There are so many designers in the country. Why did you pick me?”

Gibson Corporation was an influential company, so it was safe to assume that plenty of designers were eager to work with them if they so much as asked for it.

“Well, I like your designs. Your designs are unique, innovative, and full of personality.” Yerek flashed a

smile.

Christina couldn’t refute his words.

“I’ll think about it.” Christina smiled.

“Sure. I’ll come another time.” Yerek stood up and left right away instead of lingering any longer.

After seeing Yerek out, Rayne came rushing back to the office and asked curiously. “What did that man want from you? Is he courting you?”

Rayne thought Christina was a charming lady. Prior to that, Rayne even joked that if she were a man, she would want to court Christina, too,

“What nonsense are you talking about? He wants to collaborate with me,” Christina revealed.

“Did you say yes?” Rayne asked concernedly.

“I told him I would think about it. If he comes again, remember to call me beforehand,” Christina ordered.

“Understood.”

Rayne left and closed the door behind her, leaving Christina to stare at the contract and plunge into deep contemplation.

Christina went to fetch the kids after work.

After teaching Lucas a lesson the night before. Christina was glad to hear the teacher say Lucas had improved.

The boy sat at his desk and did his homework after dinner while Camila was drawing at the side. Needless to say, it was a peaceful and heartwarming sight.

Meanwhile, Christina was in the study, looking into Gibson Corporation on her computer. The company is doing well financially, and I don’t see any problems. As far as I know, the Steele family has nothing to do with the Gibson family, so I doubt Yerek Gibson can gain any benefit from me.

Christina fell into deep thought and was so focused that she didn’t even realize someone was standing

behind her.

“What are you looking at?” Nathaniel’s magnetic voice rang out from above her head.

Before Christina could utter a word in response, Nathaniel picked up the contract nearby and asked, “Are you collaborating with Gibson Corporation?”

“I’m still thinking about it.” Christina switched off her computer. I don’t know if I should collaborate with Gibson Corporation.

Hearing that, Nathaniel held her hand and warned with an icy glint in his eyes, “He’s a cunning and evil man. Don’t work with him.”

“What’s the matter? Do you know him?” Christina asked curiously. I would like to know more about Yerek

“This man is filled with bad intentions. Trust me,” Nathaniel replied.

Christina merely stared at the document silently.

Nathaniel kept mum for a while before turning around to leave the study.

The next day, Christina went to Francis’ office in his mansion.

Since their previous discussion on the script regarding urban fashion wasn’t fruitful, they ended up having a meeting that lasted the entire morning.

Fortunately for them, the meeting this time around went better, and they had decided on a framework.

After the meeting, Francis called out to Christina and said, “Come upstairs with me.”

“I need to go back to the studio to work. I don’t have time to chat with a superstar like you.” Christina kept her belongings and got ready to leave.

In response, Francis approached her, bent down, and whispered in her ear, “I have information. concerning the fire. Are you sure you don’t want to know?”

Christina froze momentarily and gave him the side-eye before following him upstairs.

The record player was playing light music in the living room on the third floor.

Francis took out a thick stack of documents and said, “The two thieves admitted the fact that Sean Xenos had paid them to start the fire. Sean is Yerek’s personal assistant.”

Christina looked through the documents and noticed how detailed the reports were. “This is concrete proof, no? Why didn’t you report it to the police?”

She gritted her teeth in anger. Those two b stards killed Granny and caused Mom to fall into a coma. They also destroyed the house Mom bought with her hard-earned money.

“The thieves are long gone, and these pieces of information were collected illegally. They won’t be useful in the court of law,” Francis replied helplessly. If I could, I would love to help Christina.

Christina’s gaze turned vicious when she said, “Well, on the bright side, at least now we know Yerek was the mastermind.”

There weren’t any surveillance cameras on the streets or inside the house back then. Therefore, the authorities couldn’t figure out anything regarding the case.

From that day onward, however, Christina was determined to avenge her grandmother.

“Yerek is a tricky man to deal with. I heard about his way of doing things in the entertainment industry long ago. Don’t take on Gibson Corporation alone,” Francis reminded.

Yerck’s elegant smile popped up in Christina’s mind. “What if he comes looking for me first?”

“What? He came to you?” Francis’ pupils shrank.

“It’s none of your concern. Stay out of it. Thank you for telling me these.” Christina got up from the couch with a grim look in her eyes.

“How am I supposed to stay out of it? Christina, hear me out-

Christina cut him off by saying. “My granny died in that fire. I didn’t even get to see her before she died. Are you expecting me to let the matter slide? I’m not an emotionless animal.”
