Nathaniel rushed over when he received the update from Camila. The indifferent expression on his face softened when he saw his child.
Camila held Nathaniel’s hand and pulled him in. Daddy’s here now. No one can take advantage of Mommy
anymore.
She opened the shoe cabinet and took out Nathaniel’s slippers. “Daddy, come on in.”
Holding a bag in his hand, Nathaniel walked in, exuding an air of authority as he assumed the role of the master of the house. From the corners of his eyes, he cast a glare at Francis and remarked, “Don’t A-list celebrities have more important matters to attend to?”
The air between them grew tense, thick with unresolved tension.
Francis scoffed. “I suppose I should thank you for canceling my sponsorship. Now, I get to spend more time with Christina.”
Nathaniel narrowed his eyes and stared at him. Accompany? Who needs his accompaniment?
“In fact, Mr. Hadley, I hope you can use your connections to cancel all our endorsements. Not only will I receive compensation, but I’ll also have plenty of time to be with Christina every day,” Francis said with a Triumphant smirk, his laughter filled with provocation,
Christina, who was standing behind the kitchen door, could feel the tension in the living hall. She had no choice but to separate the two men. “Nathaniel, could you please come to the kitchen and help me?”
Fury surged inside Nathaniel. She wants me to cook for him? Dream on!
Observing his steadfast stance, Christina took hold of his hand and pulled him into the kitchen.
Once they got to the kitchen, Lucas ran up to Francis and said. “Mr. Fernando, do you have a phone? I’d like to borrow it to capture some pictures of Daddy and Mommy cooking in the kitchen.”
“They look so sweet together. Could you please take their pictures and print them out? We want to display them on the wall,” Camila added in an innocent voice.
The children’s words pierced his heart like a dagger.
With a somber expression, Francis rejected their request. “My phone is out of battery, and there’s nothing worth capturing since your daddy isn’t photogenic.”
Camila widened her eyes and stared at him. “Nonsense! Our daddy is much more handsome than you.”
“Don’t talk to him anymore. Come, let’s go back to our room.” Lucas held her hand and ran back to their
room.
Christina did not assign any tasks to Nathaniel after pulling him into the kitchen.
As the sound of water from the sink trickled down, Christina turned her head and instructed, “Wash the grapes.”
“He expects my wife to cook for him and wants me to wash fruits for him? Over my dead body! With his hands in his pockets, Nathaniel snorted. He should consider himself lucky I restrained myself from getting physical
with him!

Concerned that he might become agitated and confront Francis if he had nothing to occupy his time. reluctantly sacrificed the expensive grapes she had purchased.

Nathaniel’s anger dissipated completely, leaving him filled with an overwhelming sense of joy, much like a child who had just received heartfelt compliments.

After washing them, Nathaniel picked one and gently fed it to Christina. “Try it. It must be extra sweet because I washed it.”
“It’s extra sweet because it’s expensive.” Christina chewed the grape, and her gaze filled with tenderness.
As she continued cooking. Nathaniel stood by her side, gently feeding her grapes. No longer bothered by who was right or wrong, they embraced the serenity of the moment, cherishing the warmth that enveloped them.
“Could you grab a few eggs from the refrigerator?” Christina asked.
