Let Me Stay The Night novel Chapter 431

Nathaniel’s expression turned dark as he switched off his camera instantly.

Without hesitation, he went into the changing room to get changed into a fresh suit before rejoining the conference call.

At the same time, Christina was humming pleasantly in her office downstairs.

It would certainly be quite a surprise for the employees to witness Nathaniel attending a meeting with a visible lipstick stain on his collar. The typically composed and indifferent CEO would be exposed as a hypocritical pervert in secret Let’s see if he ever dares to take advantage of me again in the future.

Christina was in a great mood, so work progressed smoothly for her.

When it was almost time to get off work, Christina packed her things and left earlier than usual to pick the kids up from kindergarten.

She missed the kids terribly after being apart from them the entire day.

The three of them hugged each other tightly, and Christina kissed their fluffy cheeks. “I’ll prepare a spread for you tonight!”

“Yay! Mommy is the best!” The kids eyes sparkled with delight when they learned that Christina would be bringing them to the supermarket.

The supermarket is full of delicious snacks and candy!

The kids quickly offered, “Mommy, I’ll help you carry the stuff.”

“Im going to help, too!”

“Okay, both of you can help,” Christina told them as she buckled them up. After getting into the driver’s seat, she drove away.

She went to the nearby supermarket to buy the ingredients to prepare a spread for her children.

At the supermarket, she bought many fresh seafood and ingredients. Naturally, she didn’t forget to buy various snacks for the children.

It was a fruitful trip for the three of them. In the underground parking lot, Christina told the kids to get into the car before getting two candies for them.

“Sit tight. I’ll bring you home after putting the stuff we bought in the trunk,” she told them.

Christina shut the door and went to the trunk with her shopping bag.

Suddenly, she felt a sharp knife pressing at the back of her waist, and a man’s hoarse voice rang out. “Don’t move. Otherwise, I won’t hesitate to kill you.”

A shiver ran down Christina’s spine as she realized that her parking spot was secluded, making her an easy target for the thief.

The kids were still inside the car. Not wanting to alert them, she played along. “Sir, I can give you my money. Please don’t hurt me!”

She dared not look back as she retrieved all the cash in her bag and placed it on the hood of the trunk. “Here is all the money I got.”

The lights in the parking lot were dim, so the sparkling diamond on her finger was pretty obvious. It captured the thief’s attention.

“Take off your ring.” he urged.

Christina covered the ring instinctively. “It’s costume jewelry that isn’t worth much…”

“I said, take it off? Hurry!” the thief snapped impatient

The children, alerted by the commotion, huddled by the back window, their faces filled with panic as they witnessed the thief’s menacing actions toward their mother.

Christina motioned for the kids to stay put and slowly pulled out the ring from her ring finger.

Right then, a tall figure appeared out of nowhere and kicked the thief away.

The thief let out an anguished cry before crashing to the ground. He quickly fled the scene in fear.

“Christina, are you okay?”

Christina swiftly turned her head, but to her dismay, the thief had vanished into thin air by the time she regained her senses.

She met Francis worried gaze. He was wearing a mask that concealed half of his face.

Tilting her head, Christina asked, “Why are you here?”

“I was shooting in the studio upstairs and spotted you when I was leaving,” Francis explained nonchalantly.

Christina bobbed her head. “Thank you.”

“Just saying thank you isn’t enough. Shouldn’t you invite me to dinner at your house?” Francis’ lips curled as he inched nearer to her. “You won’t be that ungrateful, right?”

Christina’s lips twitched in exasperation. “Fine, then.”
