Marrying the Ugly Heir for Truth and Wealth novel Chapter 140

Outside the door, Sebastian, who was eavesdropping on Christina and Nathaniel’s conversation, panicked and broke into cold sweat.

Hadn’t I reminded her to be careful? Yet, she’s frankly admitting to having an ulterior motive. Does she intend to make Mr. Hadley burst a blood vessel before she’d quit?.

In the room, the temperature abruptly plummeted. Christina marched to Nathaniel’s side and stuck her hands on her slender waist before declaring, “You must behave when you take your medicine later instead of having me feed you again.”

“That’s all?” Nathaniel questioned coldly.

Christina nodded firmly and pulled him up from his seat.

When the two of them had finished eating lunch, Sebastian came in with a bowl of traditional medicine. “Drink it while it’s hot, Mr. Hadley.”

Something unique about traditional medicine was it had to be drunk while it was hot. Otherwise, its efficacy would be affected when the aroma had dissipated.

Picking up the bowl, Nathaniel threw his head back and downed the medicine.

“Wow, how amazing! Here’s a piece of candy as a reward.” As though performing a magic trick, Christina whipped out a strawberry-flavored candy from her bag.

After unwrapping it, she stuffed it into the man’s mouth.

“Well? It doesn’t feel bitter anymore, does it?” she exclaimed, beaming from ear to ear.

Under the lights, her innocent smiling face was revealed in its full glory. Sheer vitality was reflected in her limpid eyes and rosy lips.

It was the first time Sebastian had seen Nathaniel being so cooperative. Sure enough, he’s different when Christina is here!

Rejoicing inwardly, he left the room with the empty bowl in his hand.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel returned to his desk and continued working. Christina was in no hurry to leave. She moved a stool over and sat by his feet quietly, flipping through a magazine.

The magazine in her hand was the latest fashion publication with the currently trending celebrities and singers who were relatively popular.

She behaved remarkably well, resting a hand against Nathaniel’s lap while flipping through the magazine with great interest.

“Look, Nathaniel, the styling I did for Coco made it into this magazine! The editor even lauded it for being wildly creative!”

She spread the magazine in front of the man. “Look. Isn’t it beautiful?”

Nathaniel indifferently swept a gaze over it. “Yeah.”

All of a sudden, the woman who was all enthusiastic previously slumped against the man’s shoulder like a deflated balloon.

She lamented, “Unfortunately, Coco told me all her work has recently been suspended. Even if I’ve got new ideas, I can’t put them into practice. Oh well…”

Having said that, Christina raised her bright eyes and blinked them at Nathaniel pitifully.

Her innocent look made Nathaniel’s heart soften. If she had asked for the moon in the sky at that very instant, he would have been willing to get it for her.

“What do you want?” In the end, he caved in.

Following that, Christina jumped for joy. “Don’t make things difficult for them anymore, okay? Restore their work. Then, I can also continue mine.”

There were at least a dozen celebrities attached to Francis’ studio. Once their work was suspended. everyone around them would be affected.

Nathaniel placed his massive palm on her delicate wrist. With a forceful tug, he yanked her right into

his arms.

He lowered his head, brushing his thin lips against her fair and exquisite neck. “You’re not allowed to meet him anymore henceforth.”

Like an order, his words held no room for negotiation.

Christina immediately realized the man was still fuming about the incident last night. “I didn’t go there for the express purpose of meeting him.”

No sooner had she finished speaking than his teeth clamped on her neck. Her heartbeat promptly sped. up. “Ouch, it hurts…”
