Marrying the Ugly Heir for Truth and Wealth novel Chapter 220

Zachary was filled with gratitude. “Thank you. I’ll definitely educate her.”

After a moment of silence, Christina said, “I’d like to resign, Mr. Sacchetti.”

Having heard what Julia said earlier, she was very inspired. Perhaps, it was time for her to be courageous enough to take the first step.

On the other hand, Zachary fell silent.

Christina was an extremely talented designer. No matter what, he was unwilling to let her go.

For her to mention it now, it was evident that she still felt a sense of alienation.

“I’m willing to give you ten percent of Radiant Corporation’s shares. You can respond to me after some careful consideration.”

“Okay.” Christina ended the call.

She still had to ask for Nathaniel’s opinion about starting her own company.

However, she did not wish to use the Hadley family’s money. Her current savings were already enough to start a small–scale company.

After the incident on the runway, Shelley never appeared at Radiant Corporation again.

Christina would finish her work early every day and spend the remaining time in the tailor room to complete the designs for the latest seasons.

Even though she had already decided to resign, she would still take her work seriously.

The gossip mill at the office started early in the morning that day.

An awkward look appeared on everyone’s faces the moment Christina walked into the room.

“What’s wrong? Why do all of you look like that?”

Her colleagues quickly turned off their computer screens and shook their heads, indicating that everything was fine.

Confused, Christina entered her office. Without even deliberately searching for it, she saw that the entire screen was filled with headlines about her.

Mr. Hadley’s wife spends all her time at the bar. She used to be auctioned off to men!

This woman who married into a wealthy family used to be a huge flirt! She played around with men for years at bars.

A detailed account of how Mrs. Hadley became famous.

The look of Christina’s delicate visage immediately turned icy.

Spending all my time at the bar? A prize auctioned off to others? I was just working part–time there!

Someone had made a huge deal about how she had replaced Peacock at the auction. Those articles were unimaginably obscene.

Each article even had a photo of her attached, with the descriptions sounding extremely convincing and

realistic.

Moreover, the views that each article had were insanely high, and the comments section was flooded with insults.

Christina was furious. Is this just bad faith or is someone deliberately trying to seek trouble with me?

Her phone rang, indicating a call from Bailey. The latter sounded worried over the phone. “You’ve offended Shelley, Christina. She spent a lot of money hiring others to defame you! Women like her are so vicious!”

As a highly experienced netizen, Bailey managed to find out the culprit behind all the gossip immediately.

A hostile look flashed across Christina’s eyes. As expected, it was all Shelley’s doing. “She’s trying to provoke me after she got exposed for impersonating Ada.”

Since Bailey had seen the news, she knew what had happened well.

“They are all ghostwriters. I can erase them quickly. Don’t worry,” said Bailey furiously.

Even though she could not help much in the real world, the digital realm was her forte.

“Thanks, Bailey!”

Christina felt extremely moved. Although they were usually very busy with their own lives, Bailey would help her immediately even if a minor thing happened.

Nathaniel frowned. Is she ignoring me?

Christina walked over hurriedly to support Bailey. “Are you okay? Why did you push Bailey, Nathaniel?” she asked with a tinge of worry in her tone,

Although Nathaniel had a weak impression of Bailey, he remembered that she was female. Is this man in front of me Bailey?

Bailey stood up and took off her cap, revealing her face. “Mr. Hadley, did you think I was a man and got jealous of me?”

How can he be jealous over something like this?

“That’s because you dress in such an androgynous manner,” rebuked Nathaniel curtly.

He then pulled Christina to the dining table.

Christina’s face was filled with embarrassment. “It’s just a misunderstanding. Eat more later, Bailey. Don’t stand on ceremony with him.”

Having been shoved away, Bailey was feeling quite displeased. “Of course, I’ll eat more!”

However, she did not eat much at all. Most of her time was spent peeling prawns and cutting the steak for Christina, snatching everything that Nathaniel was supposed to do.

Looking at Nathaniel, who was unable to do anything despite his jealousy, Bailey finally felt satisfied.

“Christina, I’m going to buy something later. Come with me after you’re done eating,” invited Bailey as she leaned against Christina, staring at the woman’s exquisite face.

“I’m done eating. Why don’t we go now?”

“Okay then.”

“Take your time eating,” said Christina to Nathaniel before walking out with Bailey, hand in hand.

Being abandoned just like that, Nathaniel was so furious that he wanted to punch the wall. “Sebastian,

check if Bailey likes women. Dig out all her past relationships!”

Sebastian barely had time to react. Is Mr. Hadley jealous of a woman?
