Marrying the Ugly Heir for Truth and Wealth novel Chapter 269

Upon hearing the gentle voice from the other end of the line, Christina was surprised. “Ms. Shaw, how did you know I was hurt?”

Christina didn’t tell anyone around her that she was injured. Although she had been back for almost a week, she dared not tell her family about it.

Laurel chuckled faintly. Listening to Christina’s energetic voice, she could tell that Christina was all right. “Ms. Selena is my best friend. She will surely give me a call if something happens to you. I called you too, but

you didn’t answer. I thought that you were recuperating, so I didn’t want to disturb your rest.”

Christina was warmed by her words. “I’ve been feeling dizzy these few days and have missed out a lot of messages. I’m fine now. Don’t worry.”

Laurel smiled. “As long as it doesn’t affect you from designing.”

Laurel had spent a lot of time and effort training Christina. If someone hurt Christina, she definitely wouldn’t let the person off the hook so easily.

Christina understood the kind of person Laurel was. Although Laurel didn’t express her concern too much verbally, deep down, she cared about Christina. In short, Laurel might sound harsh at times, but she was a softie at heart.

“Since you’re fine, let’s have dinner together at Seasons Hotel. I’ve booked a private room. We can talk about work too,” Laurel said.

“When did you come to Jadeborough, Ms. Shaw? Why didn’t you tell me? I would have gone to pick you up personally.” Christina tightened her grip on her phone, wanting nothing more than to appear beside Laurel right away.

Laurel curled the corners of her lips. She knew Christina was being filial. “Silly girl, see you tonight.”

“All right, Ms. Shaw.”

After ending the call, Christina was full of beans. Come to think of it, it has been more than a year since I last met Ms. Shaw.

Looking at the way she was dressed, Christina felt it was a little simple and plain. Considering that Laurel was an independent woman who paid great attention to her appearance, Christina knew she couldn’t be too sloppily dressed when meeting her mentor.

Christina called Raymond and told him to get someone to send her a few sets of clothes and accessories.

As soon as Raymond received her call, he reported it to Nathaniel right away.

Scenic Garden Manor had no secrets. Whatever happened there would eventually reach Nathaniel’s ears, including Christina’s matters.

Even though Christina had stayed in Scenic Garden Manor for a long time, it was the first time that she made such a request.

Nathaniel hung up the phone and immediately contacted the mall to send over the latest clothes and accessories to Christina’s studio.

In less than half an hour, a clothes rack filled with clothes was delivered to Christina.

Raymond is so efficient!

Christina chose some suitable clothes and matched them with a bag and shoes. Then she applied light makeup to her face. After taking a look at how well–dressed she was, Christina went out, feeling satisfied.

During dinner, sounds of laughter kept coming from inside the private room.

The waiter helped Christina open the door and invited her in.

A fair–skinned, slender woman was standing in the middle of the private room. Her long hair was blond. and her makeup was delicate. There was a mole at the corner of her eye. “Christina, come over quickly.” she said, curling her red lips.

“Ms. Shaw, I miss you.” Christina entered and handed Laurel the gift she had prepared for her. “Ive specially made this for you. Hope you like it.”

Laurel took it over and opened the box. It was a beautifully crafted rose brooch. Judging from the fine workmanship. Laurel could tell at first glance that Christina had poured a great deal of effort into doing it.
