Let Me Stay The Night novel Chapter 176

Throughout the journey, neither of them spoke. Aside from the necessary conversations from their jobs, they never discussed their private lives.

Sebastian knew Madison was the heiress to the Taggart family. Rumor has it that she came to Hadley Corporation for a job just to get close to Mr. Hadley, but I know that for a fact.

Just before they arrived, Madison spoke. “There are still a few slides I need to put together on the project we have discussed today. I’ll send them to you once I’m done.”

“No hurry. Look at the time! You don’t have to stay up to do it,” Sebastian said.

She is a hard worker who can easily start a company on her own.

Madison rested her chin in her hand. Her gaze was fixed on the night sky. “Mr. Hadley is concerned about this project. I would like to get it done quickly.”

Everything concerning Mr. Hadley is a priority to her.

Soon, the car pulled up outside her home.

“Thank you for the ride back.” Madison alighted from the vehicle and left without another word.

Sebastian gazed at her departing back, a strange feeling arising in his chest.

Given how fond Madison is of Mr. Hadley, I don’t think she will do anything to harm him. I must be overthinking.

Several days later, Christina saw Emilia’s beverage commercial on TV.

Having thought that nobody would approach Emilia to endorse their products anymore after the last time, she wondered what measures Emilia had employed to gain Hadley Corporation’s support.

Somehow, Emilia managed to restore her fame with a single commercial.

Nobody knew why she had suddenly been blacklisted a while ago, but the change in her persona made her

much more likable.

That day, Emilia took on another gig to convey the youthful appeal of a new store under Radiant Corporation. Many within the department were tasked to be onsite for the photoshoot.

Having gone out to survey their new competitors, Gina left managing the design department to Christina.

After a mere glance through the shots, Christina deemed the quality unsatisfactory.

The brand was going for a certain vivacious charm, which Emilia’s photos seemed to lack.

Christina sent the photographs to Gina, who also felt dissatisfied with the outcome.

At last, they agreed to redo the shots.

Upon hearing the news, Emilia refused. She was under the impression that Christina was deliberately making things difficult for her.

The staff’s cajoling fell on deaf ears. Left with no other choice, they sought Christina’s help. “We did all we could, Ms. Steele, but Emilia still won’t cooperate. Her manager, in particular, is very pushy. She looks

down on us.”

Seeing that her colleagues could not handle it, Christina went over personally.

As soon as she pushed open the door, she was greeted by a billow of cigarette smoke. Caught off guard, she choked and coughed a few times.

Her gaze

fell on Emilia, who was exhaling in her direction.

Scowling, she said in a warning tone, “Our product is trying to convey youthful innocence. Please watch your image during the period of your endorsement.”

Emilia’s

gaze darkened with disdain. “On the contrary, my image is well suited for the brand’s vision.” Rising to her feet, she arrived before Christina. “Isn’t the basis of these apparel to act sweet and innocent to hide your true, wicked nature?”

Christina turned crimson, although she looked more disappointed than angry. “As an ambassador, don’t you think it’s inappropriate to disparage the brand like this?”

Emilia flashed a disdainful smile. Instead of replying, she blew another puff at the other woman.

Christina was choked with anger. She found it challenging to contain her emotions at the blatant provocation.

I want to give her a tight slap, but the job remains a priority. It’s the easy way out to throw a tantrum. I know what I must do. I need to solve the problem instead of starting a fight.
