A Crazy Night (Nathaniel and Christina) novel Chapter 665

Chapter 665 The Most Suspicious Person

Nathaniel approached Christina with a grim expression on his face. “The surveillance footage was tampered with. The footage we saw was the final prodiet after being trimmed and edited

Christina frowned. “Is it possible to get the original footage

“I sent someone to the Stone residence to retrieve the original footage immediately, but it was still too late. All the records in the Stone family’s surveillance room were destroyed, Nathaniel replied

Despite the serious damage done to the devices in the surveillance room, there was no reaction from Sheridan at all. It almost seemed like he was already aware of it

Hence, Nathaniel couldn’t help but think that Sheridan was involved in the swapping of the painting

Only a member of the Stone family could cause such destruction openly and erase all traces discreetly

With that thought, the suspicion surrounding Sheridan instantly increased.

Christina was worried because their enemy was operating in the dark and they didn’t know what else they were up to. The current situation was unfavorable to them.

The perpetrator behind the scenes surely had motives beyond embarrassing her at the Stone family’s banquet

As Christina racked her brain trying to guess the person’s ultimate goal, a sudden thought crossed her mind. Her expression changed slightly.

Could it be that the perpetrator is intentionally provoking conflicts among the Hadleys, the Stones, and the Gibsons?

Suddenly, she felt a cool hand on her forehead. Startled, she almost leaped off the couch.

Placing his hands on her shoulders, Nathaniel asked worriedly. “Are you feeling unwell? You look pale

Forcing a smile, Christina replied, “I’m fine. I was just too engrossed in my thoughts. I’m sorry for making you worry.”

“What were you thinking just now?” Nathaniel’s expression softened. “Don’t keep it to yourself. Tell me We can solve this together.”

“At first, I suspected Anya and Emilia because we had an unpleasant incident at the banquet. But when you mentioned the destruction of the surveillance equipment at the Stone residence, I ruled out their suspicion,” Christina concluded. “Nathaniel, who do you find most suspicious?”

“I think it’s Sheridan, Nathaniel replied frankly

Christina’s eyes widened in disbelief. “Why?”

Nathaniel embraced her from behind and rested his chin on her shoulder as he replied, “Lyle must have told you about my business trip to Erihal. My rivalry with Sheridan is much more complicated than us vying for your love. In truth, it’s about the intense competition for the family business. Since the Hadleys and Stones have business collaborations, if the Hadleys were to initiate a conflict, it would cause the relationship between the two families to deteriorate. Sheridan will then be able to seize the Hadley family’s business effortlessly”

Christina had come to understand the cutthroat nature of the business world over the past month.

However, she found it hard to imagine Sheridan as a scheming person when he looked so polite and

courteous.

Christina recalled every detail of her interactions with Sheridan and pondered carefully. Now that she thought about it, Nathaniel’s suspicion wasn’t entirely without evidence.

If Sheridan had approached me with other intentions right from the beginning…

A cold sweat broke out on Christina’s forehead. She gulped, saying, “Nathaniel, I should have realized it sooner when you strongly discouraged me from getting close to Sheridan at first.“

She looked at Nathaniel apologetically. “I’m sorry. It seems like I’ve caused you trouble again.”

“Although I don’t like you being friends with Sheridan, it’s not your fault for not knowing the stakes involved. You haven’t caused me any harm.” Nathaniel sighed before continuing, “Christina, you don’t have to be afraid of me or tiptoe around me. You know that I can be ruthless and heartless to anyone
