A Crazy Night (Nathaniel and Christina) novel Chapter 704

Chapter 704 Exposed

With the right offer, there was bound to be someone who would step forward to do the job.

Emilia found a paparazzo who specialized in exposing scandals of celebrities online. Moreover, this person had an influential background! Most celebrities didn’t dare to mess with him even if they were targeted. Instead, they preferred to pay him off to settle the disputes.

Emilia saw this as an opportunity and eagerly arranged to meet him in person. The meeting was scheduled for tomorrow.

“It is indeed wise to approach me, Ms. Steele. As for Victoria, she’s quite well–known in the entertainment industry overseas. After I gather her scandalous materials tonight, I will show them to you when we meet tomorrow. The payment shall be made then. You will be satisfied!” the paparazzo declared confidently.

Emilia thought he was being overconfident, so she intentionally poured cold water on him. “I will decide whether the information in your hands is valuabl

or not only after I personally verify it. You have until

tomorrow, she said skeptically.

Without waiting for the man to respond, Emilia hung up resolutely.

She purposely portrayed herself as difficult to deal with to deter him from plotting against her.

After carrying out her plan, Emilia slipped into her dreams filled with beautiful fantasies of destroying

Victoria.

The next morning, Christina was awakened from her sleep by Victoria’s frantic phone calls.

Nathaniel had already left for work.

Forced to wake up, Christina answered the call with a hint of annoyance. “Who is it?”

“Christina…” Victoria’s voice was filled with grief and sorrow. “Christina, you have to help me this time…”

Christina paused for a few seconds. When her mind processed the situation, she comforted, “Don’t cry, Victoria. Take your time and tell me what happened.”

After a few hiccups and sobs, Victoria continued, “My relationship with Sebastian has been exposed. After my family found out, they strongly opposed it. They are pressuring me to break up with Sebastian. If I don’t, they will cause trouble for him.”

The Lesleys‘ reactions and actions were completely within Christina’s expectations.

“Christina, my parents want to send me abroad, so I ran away. But I didn’t take my wallet or phone with me. Can you come over? I haven’t told Sebastian because I don’t want to worry him,” Victoria pleaded.

Victoria made the call using a stranger’s phone. She had climbed over the wall and fled when the sky was still dark in her thin silk pajamas. As a result, she had been shivering in the biting cold for half an hour.

“Where are you? I’ll come to you right away,” Christina said as she hurriedly got out of bed.

After Victoria provided an address, Christina instructed her to find a nearby restaurant to order some food and rest. They would talk about the rest in detail after she made her way there.

Upon ending the call, Christina quickly freshened up, changed her clothes, and hurried downstairs.

Lyle had already been waiting downstairs for a while. When he saw Christina in a rush, he approached her and asked, “Mrs. Hadley, are you going out now?”

Christina was startled by his sudden voice because she didn’t notice him. Placing a hand over her pounding heart, she took a deep breath and smiled at Lyle. “Lyle! You’re back.”

Lyle’s face was devoid of expression. “Yes. I apologize for letting you worry about me, Mrs. Hadley.”

Christina felt apologetic. “Don’t say that. I’m the one who caused you trouble. I’ll be more careful in the future.”

Lyle strained the muscles on his cheeks as he tried hard to put on a happy smile. However, he ended up grimacing because he wasn’t used to smiling.

Sensing his thoughts and discomfort, Christina said empathetically, “I’m in a hurry to meet Victoria. Can you please arrange a car for me?”
