Marrying the Ugly Heir for Truth and Wealth novel Chapter 292

Jewel’s face swelled with anger while a frustrated glint flashed in her eyes. Christina was a calamity- bringing, evil person in her eyes. Jewel sensed Christina would speak ill of her in front of Nathaniel if she insulted the cruel woman.

“Christina Steele! Let us see who will have the last laugh, okay? I am betting on the day you get chased out of the Hadley residence!” Jewel sneered.

Christina scoffed. Her voice became icy. “Don’t worry about it. I’ll still have a firm grip on my title as Mrs. Hadley even if you get kicked out!” With that, she turned and walked toward the CEO’s office.

Jewel’s entire being flushed with anger.

Urgh! What can I do to get rid of Christina?

Nathaniel was in the middle of a meeting when Christina arrived. She was used to his routine, though, because he was either in a meeting or leafing through documents when she came over every time.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel’s eyes fell on Christina outside through the transparent glass door. She was staring at him with a pair of bright, sparkling eyes.

He interrupted Madison, who was talking about her quarterly report. “We’ll resume after a five–minute break.”

Silence fell in the conference room as Nathaniel’s subordinates gazed at him in puzzlement. They could not understand why Nathaniel, who would never interrupt a meeting, asked for a break that day.

It was not until Nathaniel left for his office with Christina in tow that realization dawned on his colleagues. Nathaniel’s abnormal behavior became explainable when it came to Christina.

Meanwhile, Madison watched them walk side by side as jealousy grew within her. It doesn’t matter how long I stare at Christina. Nathaniel will never be interested in me.

Nathaniel pulled Christina into his embrace right after they stepped into his office as his deep, husky voice sounded next to her ear. “You have your affairs in order already?”

Christina rested her head against Nathaniel’s chest. “There’s a fashion show tomorrow at the stadium. Do you feel like going with me?”

She had been swamped with work lately, and the fashion show offered her a rare opportunity to relax. Nathaniel had no idea what his schedule was for the next day. But he knew he would cancel or postpone those unimportant appointments for her. The man replied, “All righ

After all, the couple had been very busy with their affairs lately, and Nathaniel wanted to spend some precious time with Christina now.

Christina smiled and slipped a ticket into Nathaniel’s pocket. “I’m returning to Sharbrook Manor tonight, so I’ll meet you at the entrance tomorrow. Don’t be late, okay?”

The woman wanted to visit Sharon and Evelyn after not meeting with them for a long time.

Nathaniel knew that Christina was a filial person. He stroked her head and gave her an affirmation. “Sure.” “So that’s a deal!” Christina blinked her eyes playfully

Just as she spoke, Nathaniel placed his palm on the nape of Christina’s neck and leaned toward her. His hot breath blew into her face as his chiseled face grew closer before her eyes.

Although Nathaniel informed his subordinates that they would take a five–minute recess, he only rejoined the meeting in the conference room after half an hour. Then they continued their discussion for another two hours.

After the meeting. Nathaniel and some executives stayed behind to finalize the details. At the same time, Madison was bringing her report into CEO’s office when she saw Nathaniel’s coat draped over the office chair. So, she walked over to help Nathaniel hang up his clothes.

While Madison was doing that, a ticket fell out of Nathaniel’s pocket.

Intrigued, Madison picked up the ticket, opened it, and found that it was a ticket to a fashion show that would be held the next day at seven o’clock in the evening

It’s for a fashion show… Hmm… This is definitely Christina’s idea. Are they going on a date tomorrow after work?
