A Crazy Night (Nathaniel and Christina) novel Chapter 683

Chapter 683 Fate Always Brings Enemies Together

Marital crisis…

Nathaniel was very much perturbed by those two words.

He had been worried sick the whole of last night, his utmost concern being Christina’s health and thoughts.

While he was not a person easily controlled by his emotions, all his composure shattered before her.

Her words cut far deeper than her indifferent attitude.

Nathaniel’s nerves, which had been stretched taut for the entire night, finally snapped at that moment.

“Listen to what I’ve got to say first before deciding whether there’s a need to communicate about the marital issues between us, Christina.” No longer in the presence of mind to bother about the fact that they were in public, he frantically grasped her wrist and started to explain things.

A frown/marred Christina’s countenance as she stared at her wrist, which had gone red from the force of the man’s grip. “You’re hurting me.”

Immediately, Nathaniel loosened his grip. He held her hand up and examined it meticulously.

Distinct marks marred Christina’s fair wrist, evidence of the force of his grip earlier.

Guilt and anguish flooded Nathaniel. In’a humble tone, he murmured, “I’m sorry. This is on me. I’ll have the doctor come and check you over.”

Christina’s skin was delicate in the first place. After she later married Nathaniel, she had people taking care of her basic needs though her days were not too peaceful. Consequently, she became even more fragile.

On top of that, Nathaniel had been treating her like breakable glass since she was confirmed to be pregnant.

Surprisingly, Christina did not withdraw her hand but left it in the man’s hold.

“Let’s take this to a quiet place.”

“Okay. Let’s go to the café on the top floor. There’s heating there, and it’s accessible via the elevator here. You won’t be exposed to the wind.”

“Whatever you say.”

There was another half an hour before the business conference began. The collaboration between. Christina and Nathaniel had been decided in advance. Considering the fame of the Hadley family, many companies rushed over to seek a collaboration without the couple having to make the first move.

In fact, it would be no exaggeration to say that they were all targeting Nathaniel.

For that reason, Nathaniel and Christina were “besieged” by several waves of people as they weaved through the crowd to head toward the elevator nearby.

The walk would have only taken a few minutes, but it took them almost ten minutes to close the distance.

Nathaniel shielded Christina in the circle of his arms, preventing those around them from accidentally

knocking into her and the child in her belly.

At long last, they managed to get into the elevator. They went straight to the café on the top floor. No sooner had they taken a seat than someone inconsiderate came over to disrupt them.

“Oh, isn’t this Mr. Hadley? What a coincidence! I didn’t expect to bump into you on a whimsical desire for a cup of coffee. My trip here hasn’t been in vain, then.”

With an arm wrapped around a shapely woman, Winston walked over to Nathaniel while grinning from

ear to ear.

Christina lifted her head and glanced at the woman, vaguely recognizing her as a relatively renowned model who once modeled her brand.

Her deep impression of the model was not due to her professional capabilities or astounding figure and looks. Instead, it was because the woman threw her weight around on the day of the fashion show and demanded to be the final model, threatening a strike otherwise.

Each segment of a fashion show was carefully planned in advance, and an issue with any part would lead to the event flopping.
