A Crazy Night (Nathaniel and Christina) novel Chapter 45

Chapter 45 Do Not Need Your Money

Christina’s career goal was to set up a studio for her own brand. Currently, her priority was to gain more experience in preparation for the future.

It was something she wanted to achieve through her own hard work and capabilities and not by relying

on others.

Christina’s expression tensed as she said, “I won’t take your money to set up my studio.”

el felt as if a boule was weighing on his heart. Countless women were dying to get close to Fair benefits from him but did not have the opportunity to. He simply could not understand ristina would reject him.

Men like Zachary seemed to get their way with any woman they wanted just by buying them branded watches or luxury cars. However, it had the opposite effect when Nathaniel tried to make Christina happy by spending money on her.

Is it that embarrassing for her to use my money?

Nathaniel did not have the patience to continue arguing with Christina. Besides, he did not know what else he could say.

Just then, Christina’s phone rang. It was Gina calling to ask for the design draft. After Christina exchanged a few words with the woman, she hung up and glanced at Nathaniel.

She noticed that his face was clouded over. Under his thick brows were a pair of dark, deep-set eyes. He had a high nose bridge and was pressing his thin lips tightly together. Moreover, dressed in a black suit, the man was looking exceptionally elegant and aloof.

As the man was in a bad mood, his sharp features looked even more intimidating. Even at a distance, one could feel the chillness he was emitting.

Christina opened her mouth to speak but did not seem to be able to find the right words. “I have to get back to work now,” she quickly said before walking out of the alley.

Fixing his gaze on the woman’s diminishing figure, Nathaniel could feel anger rising in him.

His stomach was rumbling in hunger, and he could not believe that Christina had left him there.

That was the first time Nathaniel had felt such anger. He had lost all his appetite and stormed out of the alley.

Instead of returning to the office, he headed to the top floor of Radiant Corporation’s building and called for a meeting with the other two of the company’s largest shareholders.

Zachary was halfway through a discussion with the Public Relations Department when he was summoned.

“What brings you here? Don’t you have work to handle at Hadley Corporation?”

When Nathaniel joined Radiant Corporation back then, it was decided that Zachary would be the one

in charge of the company’s operations while Nathaniel would simply receive dividends and remain behind

scenes.

niel shot a cold glare at Zachary and tossed a piece of document from the HR department in

i him. “Fire this designer.”

Zachary picked up the profile of the designer and saw the picture of a handsome man with fair skin. “What’s wrong? Did he offend you?”,

Zachary was no fool. He knew that the reason Nathaniel suddenly showed up at the company was not simple.

Without giving an explanation, Nathaniel reached for the landline phone on the desk and passed it to his friend.

As both of them had grown up together, Zachary knew Nathaniel’s character very well. Judging by the look in his eyes, it was clear that the man was not joking.

Zachary put down the phone and said, “I had a hard time persuading him to stay with us, and we have just renewed his contract for another year. If we fire him now, we would have to pay him a large amount of compensation.”

He knew that Nathaniel wasn’t someone who would act on his impulses, and neither would he bring his personal issues to work.

“Is it because of Christina?” Zachary’s suspicions were confirmed when he noticed how Nathaniel was keeping quiet.

Slapping his thigh in realization, the man teased, “I didn’t expect you to get jealous so easily.”

“Cut the crap and do as I say.” Nathaniel showed no intention of relenting. “Didn’t you mention that the company is setting up a branch office overseas? Just send him there.”

“But, Nathaniel…”

“Either that, or you fire him. It’s decided.” Nathaniel was simply unwilling to hear Zachary out.

As such, Zachary had no choice but to agree. It was such a shame that he had to send away a talent. whom he had put in so much effort to acquire.

He looked

up

and saw Nathaniel’s grim expression. It was as if the entire world had offended him.

Zachary stood up and asked in concern, “Did you do something to upset your girl?”

“Get lost.”

Zachary chuckled, amused at Nathaniel’s stubbornness. The next moment, he took out a restaurant’s VIP card from his pocket and placed it on the table.

*Let me give you a tip. This restaurant has an excellent ambiance. Every woman I have taken there loved the place.” Zachary left after saying that.

Nathaniel picked up the gold card and fell into deep thought as he spun it between his fingers.

I should try case her, in case she uses this as an excuse to bring up divorce again.

whole lot of patience, Nathaniel finally managed to bridge the distance between him and

and he did not want his efforts to go to waste because of such a trivial matter.

me contemplation, he took out his phone and texted Christina.

Soon, it was time for Christina to knock off. As it had been a few days since she last visited her mother at the hospital, she intended to bring her some change of clothes after work.

After settling her work for the day, Christina grabbed her bag and left the office on the dot.
