When Christina woke up, she found herself lying on the bed in the bedroom of Scenic Garden Manor.

Feeling much better after a good night’s sleep, she changed into a new set of clothes and went out.

Meanwhile, a well-dressed young lady was trying out clothes at the store in the shopping mall. After finding out the size that fitted her, she said to the salesperson. “I’m buying everything I tried just now.”

The salesperson said with an apologetic look. “All of our ready stock was sold out yesterday. The clothes here are only for fitting.”

The young lady became displeased. “So I can’t buy anything?”

“Of course not. We accept reservations. You can pay a deposit and pick them up in three days,” explained the salesperson.

Everyone thought that the store would be closed down today since there was no more ready stock last night. Luckily. Ms. Steele came up with this idea to save us the embarrassment of having an empty store.

The young lady was satisfied with the clothes she tried on earlier, so she thought about it for a while and agreed. “You should’ve stocked up if your business is good.”

“We will report this issue to our superiors.”

The young lady left after paying the deposit and leaving her information.

The salesperson looked at the large number of orders and mumbled with mixed feelings, “Fortunately, we didn’t clear all the stock. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have received so many orders if customers couldn’t try on the clothes.”

The first thing Christina did every day after she left home was go to the factory to check on the progress. She could only be at ease after making sure that there was no problem with the quality of the clothes.

After leaving the factory, she had a more important thing to do, which was to find Yerek

Ten minutes later, she got out of the car that had stopped outside the branch office of Gibson Corporation. Taking the elevator, she headed straight to the floor where the CEO’s office was located.

While she was thinking about whether to call ahead first, she heard a man’s voice coming from the conference room beside her.

“Mr. Gibson, this matter has been exposed, so you have to help me. Mr. Hadley has acquired the factory. They’ll certainly take legal action against me next!”

The man’s hoarse voice sounded familiar to Christina.

She cautiously approached the conference room and saw through the crack of the door that the man. inside was the clothing factory manager.

The person talking to him was none other than Yerek.

Could it be that I was set up from the very beginning?

“I’ve asked my assistant to make the necessary arrangements. You should lie low for now and only come back after things calm down,” replied Yerek with a frown.

Something More Important

“Okay,” the factory manager responded helplessly.

When he turned around to open the door, he bumped into Christina.

“You-Ms. Steele?” Horror was written all over the man’s face.

With a cold smile, Christina said, “I’ve had a hard time finding you. Don’t leave in such a hurry. The police are already downstairs.”

She had called the police immediately after hearing his voice.

Her words caused a change in the factory manager’s expression. “I have nothing to do with this matter!”

Christina’s eyes turned cold. “Explain that to the police.”

The factory manager’s eyes widened in shock. He promptly made a run for it using the fire escape.

Christina ignored him as he was merely a pawn. Instead, she walked straight into the office. “Yerek, what’s the point of doing this?”

“All the money for the deposit and fabric you paid to the factory manager ended up in my pocket. I didn’t need to spend a penny in this investment, and I even got dividends.”

A wicked smile appeared on Yerek’s face.

From the very beginning, he was certain that Nathaniel would step in, so it had all gone according to his plan.

Clenching her fists, Christina only realized then that Yerek’s target was Nathaniel and not her.

He used me!

“I’m going to call the police to get you arrested!” Christina said through gritted teeth..

Yerek snorted. “Go ahead, if you can find evidence.”

Christina’s heart sank.

He had it all planned out, so there’s no way that he would leave evidence behind.

As the tension reached a peak, the door of the office was pushed open.

It was Yerek’s assistant, who said, “Mr. Gibson, you have a meeting to attend.”

“I’m getting back to work. You can stay and sit for a while if you want.” With that, Yerek left the office with brisk steps.

Christina was filled with indignance, but she could not find any evidence now.

At that moment, she was feeling utterly deflated, like a balloon without air.

How am I going to tell Nathaniel about this?

She was so absorbed in her thoughts that by the time she came to her senses, she found herself back in her office.

After sitting in the chair for a while, she decided to go to Nathaniel to explain everything clearly.

+5 Bonus

She recomposed herself and went upstairs, Coincidentally, she ran into Nathaniel, who had just left the conference room after a meeting.

“Nathaniel, there’s something I need to-”

“I’ve got something important to tell you.”

The two of them spoke at the same time.

Christina looked up at him. “You go first.”

“I’m going to take you to meet someone.” Nathaniel held Christina’s hand and left after handing over the documents in his hand to Sebastian.

Half an hour later, the car stopped in front of a premier private hospital.

“Why did you bring me here?” Christina asked, baffled.
