Marrying the Ugly Heir for Truth and Wealth novel Chapter 307

Mrs. Hadley, what are you doing? Don’t harm yourself!” Raymond was scared out of his wits. Pulling out is handkerchief, he frantically used it to apply pressure to her wound.

However, the cut was too deep. A handkerchief simply wasn’t enough to stop the blood.

As blood continued seeping out from her wound, her figure which was already as thin as a rake swayed unsteadily, seemingly ready to collapse any time.

“Get out! Stop acting like you all care about me! Whether I am dead or alive has nothing to do with you all!” At that moment, it dawned upon Christina that humans would lose their desire to live whenever they experienced emotional breakdowns.

She was wallowing in utter despair and exhaustion.

Christina shoved both Raymond and the housekeeper away. Afraid that they would end up hurting Christina, they backed away and got pushed out of the room.

Following a loud thud, Christina locked herself in the room.

The housekeeper was shaking like a leaf. She asked tearfully, “What should we do? Mrs. Hadley’s hand is still bleeding.”

“Call Mr. Hadley. Quick!”

The atmosphere in the conference room was heavy. Cold sweat covered the forehead of the finance director, who was presenting the annual report.

Nobody in the room dared to make a single sound. Everyone present wore solemn expressions, especially Nathaniel, who was in the main seat.

The man’s face appeared slightly gaunt after days of tireless working, making his distinctive features stand out even more. His rigid jawline gave off an aloof aura that sent chills down people’s spines.

Nathaniel had been in a bad mood for the past week.

The HR department would issue notices from time to time, announcing that certain executives had been fired. All the employees panicked.

Right then, someone’s phone rang.

Everyone exchanged glances in fear. Which idiot didn’t turn off his phone during a meeting? Does he have a death wish?

Just as everyone was confused, the man sitting in the main seat took out his phone and answered it.

“Mr. Hadley, something terrible has happened! Mrs. Hadley cut her wrist out of anger and locked herself in the room. There is blood everywhere…” Raymond was so anxious that he couldn’t even speak properly. Nathaniel frowned. No matter how angry he was, he couldn’t possibly sit still when he heard that Christina was in danger.

He shot up from his seat at once and headed toward the door of the conference room without saying anything else.

Madison chased after him. “Mr. Hadley, where are you going? We are still a meeting.

In the past few days, Nathaniel kept himself busy with work and ignored Christina. Madison was overjoyed, thinking that Nathaniel would no longer care about Christina now that his phobia toward women was cured.

Little did she expect that he would walk away like that as soon as he heard Christina was in trouble.

Nathaniel turned around and shot daggers at her. “You’re in no position to meddle in my affairs.”

After saying that, he left.

Everyone in the conference room turned to look at Madison with contempt.

Soon, they began murmuring among themselves.

“Didn’t the rumors say that Mr. Hadley is having an affair with Ms. Taggart recently?

“But he’s treating her like they’re strangers.”

“Compared to how Mr. Hadley treats Mrs. Hadley, it seems like his relationship with Ms. Taggart is just that of a superior and a subordinate.”
