With an arched brow, Francis crossed his arms and stared at her puzzledly. “Your husband is filthy rich. Why are you working so hard for money? Is he not letting you spend his money?”
Christina raised her brows in response. “That’s not the case, of course. It’s just that I’m still so young, so I don’t want to rely on my husband financially. I want to spend my own money. You know what? Forget I ever asked,” she answered. I’ll just contact the other studios. I should be able to make some money if I hide my identity.
“Wait. I have great connections, so obviously, I know some people. They’ll pay at least three hundred thousand for each outfit. Will that work?” Francis called out to her.
“Of course! I’ll pay you commissions if the deal goes through.” Christina was surprised to hear how much she could make. If I can make that much money, no longer have to worry about Mom’s medical fees.
“I don’t need commissions. Perhaps you can treat me to a meal instead,” Francis suggested.
Christina hesitated for a while before agreeing, “Sure]
“I’ll send you the contacts later,” Francis said and got back to his work.
Christina kept Coco company until the shooting was done, and Sebastian came to fetch Christina right before noon.
Coincidentally, Gwyneth saw Christina getting into the car.
“She’s just a stylist, no? Why is she getting picked up in such an expensive car?” Gwyneth’s assistant had noticed Christina as well.
“I bet she’s a mistress. She looks so shady, but she’s pretending to be an innocent girl,” Gwyneth sneered.
“She’s clearly loaded. Why is she still working so hard I bet she’s trying to get close to Mr. Fernando!” the assistant uttered firmly. I’ve been working in the entertainment industry for so many years now, so I’ve seen countless people coming into the industry to get close to celebrities. Plenty of people are going after Mr. Fernando
because he’s handsome.
“Is Christina after Francis?” Gwyneth’s expression froze. I haven’t even gotten rid of Coco! Now, I have to deal with Christina as well!
With that in mind, Gwyneth demanded angrily, “Find out who Christina is working for!”
“Yes, Ms. Lawson.”
By the time Christina arrived in the city center, it was Junchtime. Hence, Sebastian sent her to Hadley Corporation.
Upon arriving in the CEO’s office, she saw Nathaniel working on his computer.
Shortly after she arrived, the chef entered the office with a cart and piled up the coffee table with delicious dishes.
“Mr. Hadley, lunch is ready,” the chef uttered and left the office.

Hearing that, Nathaniel rose to his feet and walked up to Christina. “Is the food enough?” he asked. Although the table is piled up with dishes, the food might not be enough.
“Of course! I don’t think we can finish the food.” Christina smiled in response. Nathaniel must think I’m a glutton.
As soon as those words fell, Nathaniel shot her a dubious glance and sat her down. After that, he removed his coat and rolled up his sleeves as if he was ready to gobble the dishes up.
In the end, Christina ate most of the food prepared, and they managed to finish everything,
When the chef came in to clear the table, he brought long some ice cream.
Seeing that, Christina quickly waved dismissively. “I’m filled to the brim!” she uttered. Gosh! Does he take me for a pig?
“Leave the ice cream here. You can eat it later,” Nathaniel said. Hence, the chef left the ice cream and
exited the office.
