A Crazy Night (Nathaniel and Christina) novel Chapter 389

Chapter 389 Yerek Courts Christina.

Casually, Nathaniel undid his suit jacket and covered Christina’s face with it as he walked past her.

A hint of an alluring scent of sandalwood enveloped her, tugging at her heartstrings with its faint fragrance.

She removed the jacket to see Nathaniel and the two children playing happily.

Lucas and Camila were soon tuckered out after all the exercise.

They took a bath and immediately fell asleep after getting in bed.

When Christina came out of the children’s room, she bumped into Raymond, who was carrying pain medication on a tray.

“Is that for Nathaniel?”

“Yes. Mr. Hadley asked me to bring it to him before going upstairs.”

“Give it to me.”

After taking the medicine from the butler, she remembered that Nathaniel had played with the children immediately after reaching home and had skipped dinner. “Get the kitchen to prepare some food.”

“All right, Mrs. Hadley,” Raymond said before turning around and leaving.

Christina detected the faint scent of soap when she entered the bedroom. The sound of the hairdryer stopped, and Nathaniel stood there under the lights. He was clad in black pajamas and exuded a gloomy

aura.

“Here’s your medicine, but you should eat some food before taking it. Taking medicine on an empty stomach does more harm than good-”

Before she could finish speaking, Nathaniel wrapped his long arm around her waist and kissed the back of her neck. “I’m lucky to have you.”

For a moment, Christina couldn’t find the words to respond to that.

A moment later, Raymond knocked on the door, prompting Christina to pull away from Nathaniel.

“Eat some food, and take the medicine after that. I’ll head to bed first.”

After saying that, she went to lie down on the bed.

Smiling, Raymond placed the tray of food on the coffee table and said, “Mrs. Hadley was worried that you would go hungry and told me to get the kitchen to prepare some food. She cares about you very much.”

Christina’s voice sounded from the bed. “Raymond, you’re quite chatty today.”

Smiling meaningfully, Raymond exited without saying another word.

The next day, Christina hitched a ride to the company in Nathaniel’s car.

When she walked into her office, she saw an enormous bouquet of roses on the desk.

She picked up the card that came with the bouquet and read its contents. It was an invitation to have lunch together, and it was signed by Yerek.

Christina recalled the conversation she had with Francis yesterday. First, he set my place on fire, and now he’s here proclaiming his love. What is his motive? Though, since he came to me himself. I see no reason to reject his

invitation.

Rayne came into the office. “Mr. Gibson is such a romantic person! He actually sent you a hundred and forty-three roses! Maybe he’s confessing to you!”

The underlying meaning of such a specific number wasn’t lost on Christina.

Christina’s gaze turned cold. She crumpled the card and tossed it into the bin.

“Take the flowers out of my office. Do whatever you want with them.”

“All right.” Rayne responded. Just as she grabbed the large bouquet and turned around, she was frightened by a figure that suddenly appeared.

Giving a start, she dropped the bouquet on the floor, and the scent of roses wafted in the air.

Christina turned around to see Nathaniel staring at her with his gaze filled with hostility.

“I was about to throw these flowers away, Mr. Hadley. Please don’t misunderstand.” Rayne picked up fallen bouquet and scurried away timidly.

Expressionlessly, Christina sat down on the chair. “Do you need something?”

“Let’s have lunch together.”

“I can’t. I already have plans with someone else,” Christina declined him..

Nathaniel knitted his brows, his tone immediately turning cold. “Is it Yerek?”

the

“I don’t think I need to inform you who I’m having lunch with.” Christina casually picked up her schedule and began poring over it seriously, paying Nathaniel no mind.

“I told you, he’s not a good person. You shouldn’t interact with him,” Nathaniel enunciated.

Christina detected a hint of anger in his voice.

Lifting her gaze apathetically, she said, “If that’s all you want to say, you can leave now.”

“You’re my wife. I have the right to know who you’re meeting with.” Nathaniel clenched his fists, his frown so deep that his brows were practically pressed together.

“What about you? Are you going to tell me your whereabouts in detail too?”

Faced with Christina’s query, Nathaniel fell silent. His schedule and trips were often related to the company’s confidential developments. It was not something he could easily divulge.

Apart from Sebastian, there wasn’t anyone who knew his schedule in detail.

“I need to get back to work. Please leave.”

Seeing that she had made up her mind, Nathaniel could only retreat for now.

That afternoon, in a luxurious restaurant in the city center, Yerek presented a bouquet of pink roses to Christina. “I think pink suits you better. The color is delicate and not too flashy“

“Mr. Gibson, is this how you usually woo ladies?” Christina accepted the flowers and set them next to her

seat.

“Of course not. I just felt like doing it after meeting your

Since Yerck had ordered the dishes in advance, their food was brought out soon after they were seated.

They chatted a bit before getting down to business. “Ms. Steele, have you given thought to working together? Our collaboration will certainly help you shine in the fashion industry.”

Christina had no such desires. “I’ll think about it.”

“Okay, there’s no rush. I’ll wait for you.”

After lunch, Christina brought the bouquet of pink roses with her as she returned to Hadley Corporation.

She encountered Nathaniel just as she stepped into the elevator. The latter had just returned from a business meeting outside.

Nathaniel grabbed the bouquet of pink roses and shoved it into Sebastian’s arms. He ordered, “Throw this away.”

“Yes, Mr. Hadley.”

Nathaniel closed the elevator doors behind Sebastian and swiftly strode over to Christina, cornering the latter. “Does he want to work with you to start a clothing brand?”

“Why are you asking me if you already know about it?” Christina asked impassively.

Nathaniel’s handsome face clouded over. “How much is he investing? I’ll pay double, so don’t work with him.”
