Let Me Stay The Night novel Chapter 310

After breakfast, Christina drank a few glasses of warm water so that she would sweat.

She returned to her bed and quickly fell asleep.

In her bleary state, she felt a warm palm on her check.

She mumbled something under her breath and opened her eyes.

Nathaniel was sitting by the bed. He had removed his suit jacket, and Christina could tell he had lost some weight in his white shirt.

He looked as though he hadn’t slept for a while because of his poor complexion. The dark circles under his eyes gave him a melancholic look.

His gaze was gentle. “You’re awake. Raymond said you were unwilling to see the doctor. How can you treat your body so poorly?”

Hearing his worried voice, which she had not heard in an entire week, left Christina with a strange feeling.

She lowered her head, hiding her expression. The atmosphere became awkward as she remained silent.

Nathaniel felt a pang of discomfort when he saw her cold expression.

“Christina, I know you didn’t lie that day. I have already handled your grandmother’s matters and have chosen a good place for her to rest in peace.”

After calming down in the past few days, he had sent Sebastian to the hospital to check on the situation. Christina’s grandmother had passed away that night.

He felt guilty for not letting Christina see her grandmother for the last time.

Therefore, he was willing to humble himself and give in to show that he was regretful.

Christina stared at him coldly and retorted, “Rest in peace? When she was in the most pain and wanted to see her granddaughter, she could only stare at the white walls as she drew her final breath. Do you think she can rest in peace?”

Christina’s heart started pounding hard when she thought of Evelyn. However, she felt a pang of stabbing pain with each heartbeat.

She took a deep breath, trying to suppress her emotions.

“Leave. I don’t want to see you.” Her voice was icy cold, devoid of any emotions.

Christina didn’t care whether Nathaniel went to find Madison or other women. She just didn’t want him to disturb her anymore.

“Christina, I know this is my fault, but you can’t blame me. If it weren’t for the photos with Francis…” When Nathaniel brought up the matter of the photos, he became emotional again, and his eyes reddened.

He tried to suppress his emotions and grabbed Christina’s hands. Then, he uttered patiently. “Let’s not talk about the past anymore. Let’s turn the page on these matters and not bring them up again. Can we start

over?”

He was used to being in control, so it was rare for him to behave like this. Nathaniel was willing to forget Francis matter as long as Christina didn’t contact the latter in the future.

The photo Christina saw on Jewel’s phone yesterday flashed across the former’s mind.

The image of Nathaniel and Madison lying together sent a pang of pain into Christina’s heart. She felt heartbroken and betrayed. Perhaps the pain would only disappear after being deeply hurt.

She recalled how they used to bicker like a couple deeply in love. They had never crossed the line, even when they had conflicts.

She was utterly disappointed and exhausted from all the lies and betrayals.

Christina remained silent for a long time before calmly saying. “Let’s get a divorce.”

Even though her voice wasn’t loud, it was eerily clear in the silent atmosphere.

Nathaniel clenched his fists as an unruly tide of anguish overwhelmed his reason.
