A Crazy Night (Nathaniel and Christina) novel Chapter 472

Chapter 472 You Have To Believe Me

Silence ensued.

Christina furrowed her brows in frustration, and she was no longer interested in talking to him.

Yerek grabbed her wrist and uttered in a deep voice, “If you’re still angry at me for what happened at the clothing factory, I can pay you back all the money. If I do that, will you hate me less?”

Christina pulled her hand away from his grip and glared at him. “You can pay me back the money, but how about the life you owe me?”

Her tone was so cold that Yerek could feel a chill running down his spine.

“What are you on about? I owe you some money, and that’s it. But you want me to give my life to you?” Yerek was incredulous.

He didn’t know what Christina was talking about.

Christina said sarcastically, “Why, it didn’t take you long to forget about the evil act that you had committed.”

Yerek was still looking at her in puzzlement.

Taking in the innocent look on his face, Christina added, “Don’t look at me like that, and don’t think this is over just because I don’t have proof that you burned my house down.”

“Burn your house down? What nonsense are you talking about?” Yerek knitted his brows. Why is she saying that I burned her house down?

Christina couldn’t suppress her anger. “You will be punished for this, Yerek!” He obviously committed all those despicable acts. However, he’s acting dumb and innocent.

She wanted to leave after saying that, but Yerek wouldn’t let her go. He pulled her hand and said, “Say something that I can understand! I can’t let you accuse me of something I didn’t. do.”

“You investigated me four years ago. You were afraid that I would return to the Gibson family to snatch the right of inheritance from you, so you burned my house down. Did your know my granny died in that fire? Although she wasn’t related to me by blood, she raised me. I was close to her, even closer than my own family.” Christina tried to keep her voice down, but she couldn’t keep her tears from streaming down her cheeks.

found your address. But I didn’t start a fire! I was merely collecting your information! I never meant to harm you, Christina. You have to believe me!”

“Believe you? You teamed up with Anya that night to frame me in the office. Are you going to deny that as well?”

Christina never said it out loud, but she remembered everything. She was just waiting for the right moment to take revenge.

Yerek lifted his hand to massage his temple. “Well, I wasn’t heavily involved in that. I employed those people, but I told them not to hurt you. I even went back to look for you after I left, but you were no longer in the office. If you don’t believe me, you can check the surveillance footage.”

Christina went silent, not knowing if Yerek could be trusted.

After all, she never had a good impression of the man.

Yerek heaved a sigh when he noticed her hesitation. “Christina, Hadley Corporation has always been my only target.”

Suddenly, it stopped drizzling, and the place became misty.

Christina kept mum for a while more before turning around to leave.

Upon exiting, she got into the car, and the driver drove off.

On their way back, Christina was staring out the window, daydreaming. All of a sudden, she turned around and asked, “Dad, what do you think of Yerek?”

With a tender look in his eyes, Timothy uttered, “I raised him, so I know he’s a good person. In fact, he never asked me for the company’s shares.”

When Timothy told Yerek that Christina would be receiving the shares, Yerek had no complaints.

you “He told me I could only get the company’s shares if I were to marry him, but how did manage to transfer the shares to me, Dad?” Christina asked.

Timothy shook his head and explained, “If you were to marry him, he would receive your mother’s shares. Otherwise, the shares would automatically be transferred to you.”

So he wanted to use this to trick me into marrying him. Luckily, I wasn’t interested in inheriting the shares back then. Otherwise, I would’ve fallen into his trap.

“Don’t worry. No matter what happens, you’ll always have me.” Timothy patted Christina’s

hand.

Christina was even more determined to help her father get the project when she saw the sincere look in his eyes.

By the time Christina arrived at her office, there was a huge stack of documents on her desk.

Lina came in with a cup of coffee and put more documents on the desk. “Ms. Steele, you have to go through all of them today. I think you need to pick up your pace.”

“Sure. Please make three copies of this. I need them for the meeting.” Christina flipped open the folders and started working. She had been working intensely recently, so she was a lot quicker than before in going through documents.

If she were to go through documents every day, and each document required thirty minutes, that would be all she could do daily.
