Marrying the Ugly Heir for Truth and Wealth novel Chapter 246

The anger brewing in Nathaniel’s eyes dissipated significantly.

He pulled Christina into his embrace as if they shared the same stance while gazing at Francis. “My wife is right. She’s just caring for you like an elder in the family expressing concern for a younger member of the household. I’ll hire two more caregivers to attend to your needs so you won’t have to trouble your sister- in-law.*

With that, he dragged Christina along and left the ward.

After leaving the hospital, the two arrived at the presidential suite of a five-star hotel.

Christina didn’t know how Nathaniel had found out her whereabouts, but judging by his usual temperament, she figured he must be angry.

He remained silent along the way, causing Christina’s guilt to intensify. Nothing happened, yet it had caused a misunderstanding. “Nathaniel, 1—”

Before she could speak, Nathaniel pushed her into the bathroom.

The warm hazy air lingering in the air added a hint of ambiguity to the atmosphere. Christina riveted her big, charming eyes at the handsome man before her, not knowing what he was planning to do.

He dominceringly pinched her chin. A pensive and inscrutable look flashed across his eyes as he lowered his head to kiss her lips.

Recalling the scene at the hospital earlier, he felt discomfort churning within his chest. Nonetheless, he turned calmer after learning Christina didn’t harbor any romantic feelings toward Francis.

His heart softened further when he took in her frightened mien.

When he noticed the fair skin of her neck when her chin was lifted, his libido was swiftly roused.

“Take a shower to wash off the disinfectant smell on you” After saying that, he suppressed his lust and exited the bathroom.

Christina’s face flushed crimson. Why did he kiss me for no reason and leave just like that? Anyway, it seems like

hr not mad

After taking a shower, Nathaniel had someone send over a high-end gown for her to change into.

Although Christina wasn’t tall, the dress perfectly fitted her one-hundred-and-sixty-two-centimeter stature. The slightly split design on the side revealed her fair, slender legs.

Under the light, her bare and clean face shone like a piece of flawless emerald, evoking within anyone who lad their eyes on her a desire to protect her.

Subsequently, the two went downstairs. When they entered the VIP private room on the third floor, she saw several people sitting inside

Christina recognized those people, all of whom were well-known designers in the industry. She had seen them at a few gatherings previously.

“Did you purposefully arrange this for me?” She turned to look at Nathaniel.

6 A Caring Sister In Law

At times, it was hard for her to imagine how a proud man like him would be so considerate and meticulous in helping her with career-related matters.

“They happened to have worked with Hadley Corporation before, so I thought we could have a small and casual gathering, no pressure.”

Nathaniel led Christina into the room and asked the waiter to open a bottle of their finest red wine.

The designers had heard in advance that Nathaniel’s wife was also a designer, but designers tended to have strong personalities and were not easily swayed by men of power.

They sized up Christina, noticing she was good-looking and dressed in an ordinary manner. However, the expression in her eyes was unique, as they seemed to shine with confidence.

The designer sitting to the right was Lime, and she wasn’t one to judge others by their appearance. “Mrs. Hadley. I heard you’re also a designer. Do you have any representative works?”

Representative works were the fastest way to get to know each other. As designers, they preferred to become acquainted with others through their works.

Christina didn’t mention her secret identity, Ada. Instead, she merely talked about her achievements during her time at Radiant Corporation.
