Chapter 676 A Different Surprise
Victoria had no choice but to do as she was told. She shot Nathaniel one last vicious glare before she went after Christina.
Sebastian turned to look at Nathaniel. “Mr. Hadley, you should rest in my room for tonight. Don’t worry. Victoria will stay with Mrs. Hadley. Tomorrow when the two of you have cooled down, it won’t be too late for you to explain to Mrs. Hadley then. She’s not an unreasonable person, so she’ll understand.”“
“All right.” Nathaniel massaged his temples to relieve his headache. “Lead the way.”
He didn’t even spare a glance at the woman in the room as he stepped out.
Vera put out her cigarette. She was barefooted as she went forward to grab Nathaniel’s arm. “Mr. Hadley, I’m not the only one at fault here. You’re the one who didn’t want to let go of me tonight. It was also you who wanted me to stay behind and accompany you. You can’t just turn your back on me after we’ve had our fun. I won’t let you go just like that.”
She let her eyes roam up and down Nathaniel’s body shamelessly. Regardless of his aura or appearance, they all fit her ideals of a perfect man.
Nathaniel was drunk, but that did not mean he was unconscious of his actions.
“Apart from my wife, I don’t touch other women.” Nathaniel glared at her. “Tell me what you want, and I might let you go just this once.”
Vera’s expression turned grim. She let out a cold snort. “Nathaniel, you have no idea how many men want to spend a night with me because of my beauty and figure. I don’t need to offer myself up to you.”
Nathaniel shrugged off her hand. His eyes were filled with disgust and hatred as he stared at the woman before him. “Your acting is terrible. Besides, I have no interest in people who have had plastic surgery. If you don’t want to die, it’s best you keep your distance from me.”
Nathaniel’s darkened gaze sent chills down Vera’s spine. She instinctively stepped aside and watched as Nathaniel and Sebastian left.
“Did you mess things up?” Yerek appeared next to Vera without her realizing it. He looked annoyed as he said, “I created the perfect opportunity for you, yet you wasted my efforts. Anya, you disappoint me.”
Anya took off the hyper-realistic mask and threwChapter 676 A Different Surprise
Christina turned to look at where Victoria was pointing, just in time to see a familiar figure disappearing at the corner of the corridor.
It’s Yerek! There’s no way I’d mistake that figure for someone else! Perhaps he’s the one who took Nathaniel away while he was drunk!
Christina lifted the hem of her gown and ran after the figure. She stopped him on the deck of the second floor.
Yerek was surprised to see Christina. He cocked his brows and asked, “What’s wrong? Are you here to catch up with me? Because we have nothing in common to talk about.”
Christina’s eyes darkened. “Where’s Nathaniel?”
Yerek chuckled and stared at Christina in disdain. “How should I know where he went? Don’t you think it’s funny that you approached me to ask his whereabouts?”
Christina tried to calm herself down. “Someone saw you take Nathaniel away. Yerek, I don’t have time to talk nonsense with you right now. You must’ve played a part in his disappearance. I won’t forgive you if anything happens to him!”
Yerek could care less about what she thought. He provoked her by saying, “Let me repeat myself. I have no idea where Nathaniel went. Even if I did know, I wouldn’t tell you, so there’s no use in you threatening
In reality, Yerek was nervous about Christina’s questioning, but he tried his best not to show it on his face.
“Perhaps Nathaniel found a new lover and is currently having the time of his life with her-Ahh!” Before Yerek could finish his sentence, Victoria slapped him.
“Shut up. Don’t speak if you can’t say anything nice. Do you want me to rip out your tongue?” Victoria knew Yerek and Christina did not get along. Since it was inconvenient for Christina to attack him because she was pregnant, it was natural that Victoria would stand in for her.
It was the first time a woman had slapped Yerek in the twenty-plus years that he was alive. He glared at Victoria and asked through clenched teeth, “Are you seeking death?”
Victoria was fearless. “You wouldn’t dare to do anything to me. I know you’ve been wanting to meet my brother and discuss a collaboration. One call from me, and your plan will fail. Try it if you don’t believe
Yerek squinted and finally made out the appearance of the woman with the help of the dim light on the deck.
F*ck. Why is Victoria here?
“I don’t know where Nathaniel is. Don’t come looking for me just because he’s gone missing. I won’t be this tolerant the next time this happens.”
A gentleman would not lay a hand on a woman. For the sake of the Lesley family, Yerek had no choice but to swallow his anger.
Just you wait, Christina and Victoria. It won’t be long before I stop being scared of you!
Unable to get any valuable clue from Yerek, Victoria suddenly lost her enthusiasm to continue the search. She glanced at Christina and asked, “Christina, what should we do now?”
Christina replied coldly, “Go back to the third floor and continue searching”
I’ll definitely find Nathaniel!
Just then, Sebastian called. Christina quickly answered, “Mr. Taggart, any news on your end?”
Sebastian was silent for a moment. He hesitated before saying, “I found him, but it’s not what we expected. You should come and take a look.”
He sent Christina a location-room one on the fourth floor.
Christina and Victoria hurried over.
Christina felt like she had been struck by lightning when she saw the scene before her. Her face drained of its color as she stood at the door. She kept silent as though something was blocking the words from leaving her mouth.
Vera was smoking as she leaned against the window. The collar of her bathrobe was opened wide enough to show the love bites littering her chest. Her lips curved into a smirk as her gaze fell on Christina.
