A Crazy Night (Nathaniel and Christina) novel Chapter 554

Chapter 554 Spilling The Beans

It would be a piece of cake for Victoria to deal with the waning Taggart family with her family background.

Sebastian and Victoria had only met a few times, and they were not even friends yet. It was merely a coincidence that she would visit him at the hospital. Sebastian was a man who was easily satisfied, so he never tried to strive for things he knew he should not have.

With a weak smile, he said, “Ms. Lesley, thank you for your kind intentions, but Manuel has received the punishment he deserves, and Mr. Hadley has stood up for me. I don’t wish to trouble anyone else.”

A wave of frustration swelled in Victoria’s chest when she heard how polite and distant he was.

When Sebastian mulled over his conversation with Victoria, a thought popped into his head.

He finally realized why Victoria was so livid. It was not that Victoria had a bad temper but that he was too slow to realize what he had said.

Sebastian bitterly laughed before wearily leaning back against the headboard. He closed his eyes.

He desperately wished that he was wrong. He was only Nathaniel’s assistant, and it was clear that he was no match for Victoria in terms of status. Although he was not close to the Taggart family, he could never erase the fact that he was one of the Taggarts.

The terrible reputation of the Taggart family was going to be a burden he had to bear until the end of his life.

“I saw families of patients with flasks in their hands when I walked past the pantry earlier. They said that hot water is good for your health, so I got a flask of that for you. I even ended up ruming my clothes while I was doing that”

As she spoke, she showed Sebastian the hooked edge of her shirt. She then demanded, “1 ruined my shirt because of you, so once you’ve recovered, you ll have to compensate me and continue shopping with me. You have no right to reject ine I’ll take this as extra compensation!

Sebastian’s eyes were filled with mirth as he consoled, “Sure. I’ll keep you company with anything you want to do.”
