Let Me Stay The Night novel Chapter 243

Francis watched Christina focus on her work at the sewing machine. Guess I’ll leave her be. “I’ve been filming in Hallsbay recently. If you need anything, call me.”

In response, Christina gestured an “OK” sign at him. “You should return quickly.” I doubt I’ll need anything from him, considering I’m so busy at the sewing machine every day that I don’t even have time to drink water.

Before Francis left, he couldn’t help but caress her head. She’s like a docile kitten who’ll occasionally bite someone when cornered. I really want to bring her to a place where no one can disturb us, so there’s no need to think about revenge. Won’t it be nice if we’re the only people on the planet?

Irritated, Christina slapped his hand. “Stop disturbing me and leave.”

No one could focus on their work if such a handsome man stood beside their desk.

After Francis exited the room, someone behind him shouted, “I’ve been your fan for a long time. Francis. Can I get your autograph?”

Upon turning around, he saw Nancy holding a pen and paper. She had been waiting for him since after dinner.

As a public figure and a superstar, he was used to having fans asking him for autographs.

If he weren’t in a hurry, he would stop to give an autograph or take a picture with his fans.

“All right.” He grabbed the pen she handed him and signed his name beautifully on the paper.

Staring at the autograph, Nancy was so elated that she beamed.

It was her first time doing that, which was why she was indescribably excited.

Just as Francis was preparing to leave, she called out to him again. Upon gathering her courage, she proposed, “I know you’re interested in joining Mr. Valentine’s latest movie, Francis. He’s actually my unclé. If you’re willing to become my model. I’ll immediately help you obtain the role of the male lead in that movie. What do you think?”

Her family was a prominent entity in the entertainment industry. Thus, she could handily make someone the male lead in a movie.

This is a great deal, no matter how one sees it. He only needs to be my male model for a while to be hired as a movie’s male lead and get paid eighty million. I doubt he’ll reject my offer. As she thought, she was excited by the thought of spending time with him.

In response, Francis faced her again. With a frigid countenance, he studied her and spat, “Do you think I’ll be a male model for any woman? What kind of a joke is that?”

Nancy’s expression shifted. I’ve never seen him looking this terrifying before.

“Mr. Valentine called me a few times about the movie already. I reluctantly agreed to accept the role, but now I’m regretting my decision now.” A dark look settled in Francis’ eyes as he gazed coldly at the panicking Nancy. “Let me warn you. Don’t even try to hurt Christina. I won’t let you off the hook if you do.

With that, he left.

His frigid expression replayed in her mind as her body trembled. What is his relationship with Christina? Why is he biased toward her?

After dinner, nearly all designers returned to the tailor room to continue their work. None of them wanted to lose such a significant competition.

Everyone worked until early in the morning. All that was left in the quiet room was the sound of sewing machines in operation.

Eventually, some couldn’t stand the exhaustion anymore and returned to their room to rest.

As for Christina, it wasn’t until almost dawn that she stopped working.

When she left the room, she took her clothing with her. After all, one of the many people inside might intentionally destroy her work.

Upon returning to her room, she typed a very long message to Nathaniel.

After sending it, she was so tired that she fell asleep before waiting for a reply.

She had no idea how long she had slumbered.
