Let Me Stay The Night novel Chapter 389

Casually, Nathaniel undid his suit jacket and covered Christina’s face with it as he walked past her.

A hint of an alluring scent of sandalwood enveloped her, tugging at her heartstrings with its faint fragrance.

She removed the jacket to see Nathaniel and the two children playing happily.

Lucas and Camila were soon tuckered out after all the exercise.

They took a bath and immediately fell asleep after getting in bed.

When Christina came out of the children’s room, she bumped into Raymond, who was carrying pain medication on a tray.

“Is that for Nathaniel?”

“Yes. Mr. Hadley asked me to bring it to him before going upstairs.”

“Give it to me.”

After taking the medicine from the butler, she remembered that Nathaniel had played with the children immediately after reaching home and had skipped dinner. “Get the kitchen to prepare some food.”

“All right, Mrs. Hadley,” Raymond said before turning around and leaving.

Christina detected the faint scent of soap when she entered the bedroom. The sound of the hairdryer stopped, and Nathaniel stood there under the lights. He was clad in black pajamas and exuded a gloomy

aura.

“Here’s your medicine, but you should eat some food before taking it. Taking medicine on an empty stomach does more harm than good-”

Before she could finish speaking, Nathaniel wrapped his long arm around her waist and kissed the back of her neck. “I’m lucky to have you.”

For a moment, Christina couldn’t find the words to respond to that.

A moment later, Raymond knocked on the door, prompting Christina to pull away from Nathaniel.

“Eat some food, and take the medicine after that. I’ll head to bed first.”

After saying that, she went to lie down on the bed.

Smiling, Raymond placed the tray of food on the coffee table and said, “Mrs. Hadley was worried that you would go hungry and told me to get the kitchen to prepare some food. She cares about you very much.”

Christina’s voice sounded from the bed. “Raymond, you’re quite chatty today.”

Smiling meaningfully, Raymond exited without saying another word.

The next day, Christina hitched a ride to the company in Nathaniel’s car.

When she walked into her office, she saw an enormous bouquet of roses on the desk.

She picked up the card that came with the bouquet and read its contents. It was an invitation to have lunch together, and it was signed by Yerek.

Christina recalled the conversation she had with Francis yesterday. First, he set my place on fire, and now he’s here proclaiming his love. What is his motive? Though, since he came to me himself. I see no reason to reject his

invitation.

Rayne came into the office. “Mr. Gibson is such a romantic person! He actually sent you a hundred and forty-three roses! Maybe he’s confessing to you!”

The underlying meaning of such a specific number wasn’t lost on Christina.

Christina’s gaze turned cold. She crumpled the card and tossed it into the bin.

“Take the flowers out of my office. Do whatever you want with them.”

“All right.” Rayne responded. Just as she grabbed the large bouquet and turned around, she was frightened by a figure that suddenly appeared.

Giving a start, she dropped the bouquet on the floor, and the scent of roses wafted in the air.

Christina turned around to see Nathaniel staring at her with his gaze filled with hostility.

“I was about to throw these flowers away, Mr. Hadley. Please don’t misunderstand.” Rayne picked up fallen bouquet and scurried away timidly.

Expressionlessly, Christina sat down on the chair. “Do you need something?”

“Let’s have lunch together.”

“I can’t. I already have plans with someone else,” Christina declined him..

Nathaniel knitted his brows, his tone immediately turning cold. “Is it Yerek?”

the

“I don’t think I need to inform you who I’m having lunch with.” Christina casually picked up her schedule and began poring over it seriously, paying Nathaniel no mind.

“I told you, he’s not a good person. You shouldn’t interact with him,” Nathaniel enunciated.

Christina detected a hint of anger in his voice.
